2.2 Guarantee and responsibility

The manufacturer guarantees its new products from the date of


installation, in accordance with the regulations in force and/or the
sales contract. At the moment of the first start-up, check that the
burner is integral and complete.
Failure to observe the information given in this
manual, operating negligence, incorrect installa-
tion and carrying out of non authorised modifica-
WARNING tions will result in the annulment by the
manufacturer of the guarantee that it supplies with
the burner.
In particular, the rights to the guarantee and the responsibility will
no longer be valid, in the event of damage to things or injury to
people, if such damage/injury was due to any of the following
causes:
 incorrect installation, start-up, use and maintenance of the
burner;
 improper, incorrect or unreasonable use of the burner;
 intervention of unqualified personnel;
 carrying out of unauthorised modifications on the equipment;
 use of the burner with safety devices that are faulty, incor-
rectly applied and/or not working;
 installation of untested supplementary components on the
burner;
 powering of the burner with unsuitable fuels;
 faults in the fuel supply system;
 continuation of use of the burner when a fault has occurred;
 repairs and/or overhauls incorrectly carried out;
 modification of the combustion chamber with inserts that
prevent the regular development of the structurally estab-
lished flame;
 insufficient and inappropriate surveillance and care of those
burner components most likely to be subject to wear and
tear;
 use of non-original components, including spare parts, kits,
accessories and optional;
 force majeure.

The manufacturer furthermore declines any and every re-


sponsibility for the failure to observe the contents of this
manual.

Installation notes
• Check the electric wiring inside the boiler complies with the
national and local safety regulations.
• Do not confuse the powered conductors with the neutral
ones.
• Ensure that spliced wires cannot get into contact with neigh-
bouring terminals. Use adequate ferrules.
• Arrange the H.V. ignition cables separately, as far as possi-
ble from the control box and the other cables.
• When wiring the unit, make sure that AC 230 V mains voltage
cables are run strictly separate from extra low-voltage cables
to avoid risks of electrical shock hazard.

5.10 Electrical wiring

5.10.1 Notes on safety for the electrical wiring


 The electrical wiring must be carried out with the electrical supply disconnected.
 Electrical wiring must be made in accordance with the regulations currently in force in the country of destination
and by qualified personnel. Refer to the wiring diagrams.
DANGER  The manufacturer declines all responsibility for modifications or connections different from those shown in the wir-
ing diagrams.
 Check that the electrical supply of the burner corresponds to that shown on the identification label and in this man-
ual.
 The burner has been type-approved for intermittent use.
In the event of continuous operation, a cycle arrest must be ensured within 24 hours with the use of a time switch
positioned in series with the thermostatic line. Refer to the wiring diagrams.
 The electrical safety of the device is obtained only when it is correctly connected to an efficient earthing system,
made according to current standards. It is necessary to check this fundamental safety requirement. In the event of
doubt, have the electrical system checked by qualified personnel. Do not use the gas tubes as an earthing system
for electrical devices.
 The electrical system must be suitable for the maximum power absorption of the device, as indicated on the label
and in the manual, checking in particular that the section of the cables is suitable for that level of power absorp-
tion.
 For the main power supply of the device from the electricity mains:
- do not use adapters, multiple sockets or extensions;
- use a multiple pole switch with at least a 3 mm gap between the contacts (overvoltage category III), as envis-
aged by the present safety standards.
 Do not touch the device with wet or damp body parts and/or in bare feet.
 Do not pull the electric cables.
Before carrying out any maintenance, cleaning or checking oper-
ations:

Disconnect the electrical supply from the burner


by means of the main system switch.
DANGER

Turn off the fuel interception tap.


DANGER

5.10.2 Control box

Disconnect the electrical supply from the burner


by means of the main system switch.
DANGER

To remove the control box from the burner it is necessary to:


 disconnect all the connectors connected to it, the 6-pin plug,
the high voltage cables, and the earth wire (TB);
 loosen the screw 1)(Fig. 14) and pull the control box in the
direction of the arrow.
For the installation:
 tighten screw 1)(Fig. 14) with a tightening torque of
1 ÷ 1.2 Nm;
 reconnect all previously disconnected connectors, making
sure to connect the 7 pin power plug as the final step.
After carrying out maintenance, cleaning or
checking operations, reassemble the hood and all
the safety and protection devices of the burner.

With the burner function at the required output, turn the knob
slowly in a clockwise direction until burner lockout.
Then turn the knob anticlockwise to an extent that is around 20%
of the adjusted value and then check that the burner starts up
properly.
If the burner locks out again turn the knob slightly in an anticlock-
wise direction.
In conformity with the standard, the air pressure
switch must prevent the air pressure falling below
