fired heating equipment.

CAUTION

Read this manual carefully before installation,
operation, or service of this equipment.
Burner manufacturers manual is also provided to
give detailed instructions on the operation of the
burner. The settings for use of the burner with the
heater are shown in these instructions.
This heater is designed for heating non-residential
indoor spaces. Do not install in residential spaces.
These instructions, the layout drawing, local codes
and ordinances, and applicable standards that apply
to gas piping, electrical wiring, venting, etc., must be
thoroughly understood before proceeding with the
installation.
SECTION 2: INSTALLER RESPONSIBILITY
• To install the heater, as well as the fuel and
electrical supplies, in accordance with applicable
specifications and codes. Roberts-Gordon
recommends the installer contact a local
building inspector, Fire Officer or insurance
company for guidance.
• To use the information given in this manual
together with the local and national codes to
perform the installation.
• To install the heater in accordance with the
Clearances to Combustibles of this heater.
• To furnish all needed materials not furnished
as standard equipment.
• To plan location of supports, flues and air
intakes.
• To provide access to burners for servicing.
• To provide the owner with a copy of this
installation, commissioning, operation and
service manual.
• To never use heater as support for ladder or
other access equipment and never hang or
suspend anything from heater.
• To ensure that there is sufficient ventilation in the
area to comply with the requirements of
all relevant local and national codes.
2.1 Clearances to Combustibles
In all situations, clearances to combustibles must be
maintained. Caution must be used when running the
heater near combustible materials such as wood,
paper, rubber, etc. A wall tag is on the back cover of
this manual as a permanent reminder of the safety
instructions and the importance of the required
2

Corrosive chemicals will damage the burner and
heat exchanger parts.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in
property damage.

Roberts-Gordon cannot be responsible for ensuring
that all appropriate safety measures are undertaken
prior to installation; this is entirely the responsibility
of the installer. It is essential that the contractor, the
sub-contractor or the owner identifies the presence
of combustible materials, corrosive chemicals or
halogenated hydrocarbons* anywhere on the
premises.
* Halogenated Hydrocarbons are a family of chemical
compounds characterized by the presence of halogen
elements (fluorine, chlorine, bromine, etc.). These compounds are frequently used in refrigerants, cleaning
agents, solvents, etc. If these compounds enter the air
supply of the burner, the lifespan of the heater components will be greatly reduced. Warranty will be invalid if
the heater is exposed to halogenated hydrocarbons.

2.3 National Standards and Applicable Codes
All appliances must be installed in accordance with
the latest revision of applicable standards and local
and national codes. This refers also to the electric,
gas and venting installation. NOTE: Additional
standards for installations in Public Garages, Aircraft
Hangars, etc. may be applicable.
The main relevant regulations for installation within
the UK are:
• Gas safety (installation and use) regulations,
1984 and amendments - 1996.
• BS6230 - Specification for the installation of gas
fired forced convection air heaters for commercial and industrial space heating of rated input
exceeding 60kW. (This standard also applies to
oil-fired heaters, except for the fuel supply).
• BS6230 - Parts 2 & 3, fire precautions in the
design and construction of buildings.
• BS6891 - Low pressure installation pipes.
• BS5410 - Codes of practice for oil firing. Part 2
installation of 44 kW and above output capacity
for space heaters, hot water and steam supply
purposes.
• Institute of Gas Engineers document IGE/UP/2.
• Building regulations.
• IEE regulations.
• Health and safety at work acts.
• Requirements of local authority, fire officer and
insurance company.

SECTION 3: CRITICAL CONSIDERATIONS

SECTION 3: CRITICAL CONSIDERATIONS
3.1 Basic Information
Cabinet heaters are supplied with burners suitable
for on/off operation as standard. As an option, oilfired burners are available with two-stage operation
and gas-fired burners are available with full
modulation.
3.2 Location and Suspension
All models:
• Are designed to be installed indoors within the
heated space. Special versions are available for
installation outdoors.
• Are designed for floor standing vertical installation.
• Must be installed in a manner which allows all
the upper panels and either of the lower side
panels to be removed to provide access to all
serviceable components.
• Must be placed on a firm, level, non-combustible
surface that can support its weight. See Page 5,
Section 4.1 for weight details.
Horizontal models:
• Special versions supplied with steel channels to
support the heater are available and may be
mounted horizontally. When installed horizontally, the heater will normally lie on its left side
when viewed from the burner. The same clearances and comments on panels must be used,
except for the side the heater lies on.

3.7 Electrical Supply
A permanent 230 V, 50 Hz, 1 Ø is required on
models 15 to 30 and 400 V, 50 Hz, 3 Ø and neutral
required on models 40 to 100 (special version PGP
and POP 040 and 050 models are available as belt
drive). The heater also requires suitable energy
controls in accordance with Section 9.
ON/OFF control, temperature control, time control,
and frost protection are available as a remote
control, which needs to be site wired for proper
operation of the heater. Alternatively, any remote
energy controls may be used which must be wired in
accordance with Section 9.3 through Section 9.10.
3.8 Flue
Choose heater siting to allow for the proper location
of the flue. Each heater must be fitted with an
individual and correctly sized sealed flue system
(See Page 13, Section 6).

3.3 Minimum Required Installation Clearances
Clearances around the heater and flue must be as
indicated on Page 4, Figure 1 and Page 13, Figure 4
through Figure 5 to ensure access for servicing, and
correct operation.
3.4 Clearances to Combustibles
Clearances must be as indicated on Page 4, Figure
1. If no clearances to combustibles are indicated,
then installation clearances apply.
3.5 Ventilation
It is important to ensure adequate air circulation
around the heater to supply air for combustion,
ventilation and distribution in accordance with local
and national codes.
3.6 Fuel Supply
It is important that the fuel supply pipe is sized
correctly to provide the inlet pressure as stated on
the heater data plate. The fuel supply pipe and
electrical connections must not support any of the
heater's weight.

NOTE: The air setting is a guide only. The final setting is subject to combustion testing.
When setting the minimum firing rate, a check must be made following the setting of the burner combustion. The
check is made by running the heater on low fire for a minimum of 15 minutes at the full transport air rate and at typical
ambient conditions. During the test, check that the flue gas temperature does not fall below 125° C. Should the flue
gas temperature fall below 100° C, then the low fire gas setting must be increased to a value that will achieve 125° C
flue gas temperature; otherwise condensation may form in the heat exchanger and flue, causing rapid corrosion and
short operational life.

NOTE: For adjustment of head setting, see Ecoflam Instructions.

SECTION 5: HEATER INSTALLATION
5.1 General
Heaters are designed for floor standing vertical
installation. Special versions supplied with steel
channels to support the heater are available and
may be mounted horizontally. When installed
horizontally, the heater will normally lie on its left
side when viewed from the burner. The heater

should be placed on a firm, level, non-combustible
surface that can support its weight. See Page 5,
Section 4.1 for weight details.
5.2 Handling
All cabinet heaters are supplied secured to a
wooden pallet and shrink wrapped. Use the pallet to
support the heater during handling and installation.

SECTION 6: FLUE INSTALLATION
6.1 Flue Installation

WARNING

Fire Hazard
Some objects will catch fire or explode when
placed close to heater.
Keep all flammable objects, liquids and
vapours the required distance away from the
heater.

Figure 6 through Page 14, Figure 9. The joints
between the flue and the roof or wall must be
properly sealed. If the flue passes through a wall or
ceiling of combustible material it must be enclosed
by a sleeve of non-combustible material and be
separated from the sleeve by at least a 25 mm air
gap.
Flues must be adequately supported so that the
heater does not bear the weight of the flue.
For straight and offset flue termination See Page 13,
Figure 4 and Figure 5.

Flues must be correctly sized for the model. See
Page 5, Section 4.1. Flues should be assembled as
on Page 13, Figure 4 and Figure 5 and Page 14,

90° bends and horizontal pipe must not be used
in flues except for the immediate connection to
horizontally mounted heaters (1 m max). 135°
bends are used to offset the flue as in Figure 5.
If condensation is likely to occur in the flue, then
provision should be made for drainage.

SECTION 7: AIR SUPPLY

SECTION 7: AIR SUPPLY
7.1 Air Supply
It is important to ensure adequate air supply at all
times for both combustion and heating requirements
in accordance with BS 6230 for UK installations and
the latest revisions of applicable standards and local
and national codes.
7.2 Isolated Equipment Rooms
Ventilation must prevent the temperature of isolated
equipment room from exceeding 32°C as well as
prevent any negative air pressure within the room.
Any isolated equipment room containing air heaters
will require permanent air vents direct to outside air
in compliance with local codes.
Where natural ventilation is used, suitable
permanent openings at low and high levels,
communicating directly with the outside air, must be
provided.
Where mechanical ventilation is used, extract rate
must be 5% - 10% less than the inlet rate. The
mechanical ventilation must be interlocked with the
burner on the heater.

The main fan requires a minimum free air return
path of 1 m2 per 197 kW of heater output or 0.33 m2,
whichever is greater.
NOTE: When heaters are installed in the horizontal
mode and connected to distribution ducting and/or
inlet ducting, then the natural convected air flow
through the heater, before the main fan turns on may
be disrupted.
To ensure correct operation of the fan under these
circumstances, in all COMBAT® cabinet heaters
designed for horizontal mounting, the main fan will
operate in conjunction with the burner sequence by
the use of a time delay or direct acting relay.
It is strongly recommended that when any heater is
connected to installation ducting, a similar approach
to the fan control is used. Any such control must be
in parallel with the fan thermostat so that the fan
"run on" feature is still able to operate (See Page 22,
Section 9.5).

7.2.1 Heaters Installed Within the Heated Space
Where the volume of the heated space is greater
than 4.7 m3 per kilowatt of total rated heat input and
the air change rate is at least 0.5/h, additional high
and low level ventilation will not be required.
For a building having an air change rate less than
0.5/h, ventilation will be necessary in accordance
with local and national codes.
7.3 Building Ventilation
Where ventilation is required, air must be taken from
an outside point where it is not likely to be
contaminated or obstructed.
7.4 Distribution Ducting
Duct should be full size for at least twice the minor
dimension before change of direction or reduction of
area.
7.5 Return Air Ducting
In installations employing recirculation or fresh air
ducting, this ducting shall comply with the following:
1. There shall be an unobstructed air path connected directly to the heater.
2. The return air or fresh air shall be connected by
ducting directly to the air inlet on the heater.
3. Where automatic or manual dampers are provided for operational adjustment in these ducts,
they shall be proved in the correct position during the operation of the burner.
15

COMBAT® CABINET HEATERS INSTALLATION, COMMISSIONING, OPERATION AND SERVICE MANUAL

SECTION 8: FUEL PIPING
8.1 Connections
Connect the heater to the gas supply, ensuring that
the final connections are as follows:
• Gas supply pipe is run in medium or heavy
gauge tubing in compliance with local and
national codes.
• The gas supply pipe is adequately sized to carry
the total volume of gas for the complete
installation.
• An isolating valve and union connection should
be used and fitted into the supply adjacent to the
heater.

WARNING

Fire Hazard
Connect gas supply according to Figure 10.
Gas can leak if not installed properly.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in
death, injury or property damage.

It is important that the gas supply pipe and the
electrical connections do not support any of the
heater’s weight.
A gas meter is connected to the service pipe by the
Gas Supply Company. Any existing meter should be
checked, preferably by the company, to ensure that
the meter is adequate for the rate of gas supply
required.
Installation pipes must be fitted in accordance with
local and national codes. Pipe work from the meter
to the heater(s) must be of adequate size. Pipes of
smaller size than the heater inlet gas connection
should not be used.

IMPORTANT - The complete installation must be
purged and tested for gas soundness in accordance
with local and national codes.

SECTION 8: FUEL PIPING

8.2 Fuel Oil Supply
8.2.1 Fuel Storage Tank
The fuel storage tank should be located outside the
building as close as possible to the heater. The tank
must be installed per local and national codes.

8.2.4 B. M. Oil Lifter
Where a gravity feed system cannot be used, a B.
M. oil lifter may be used for small installations up to
the equivalent of a single model 050 on minimum lift
or a single model 020 on maximum lift.
The fuel output from the oil lifter is gravity fed.
The B. M. oil lifter requires a constant 230 V 50 Hz
1 Ø electrical supply. The maximum pipe size to be
used on the suction side is 1/4" ID, 5/16" OD (8
mm). For maximum loading of oil lifters See Page 17,
Figure 11. Consult the manufacturer’s information
regarding the need to prime these devices.

8.2.2 Fuel Pipes
The fuel pipes must be sized to ensure an adequate
supply of oil to the entire installation. Galvanised
pipe must not be used for oil installations. The fuel
pipe must terminate at each heater with an isolating
manual valve, a fire valve and a fuel filter. See Page
12, Figure 3. The fusible link of the fire valve should
be installed 100 mm (4 in) above the burner.
The heater’s oil burner pump inlet is provided with a
flexible oil line which should be used for the final
connection. When making the final connection to the
heater, do not block any of the removable panels of
the heater. All COMBAT® oil-fired cabinet heaters are
supplied with burner pumps fitted for one pipe
systems.

8.2.5 Pressurised Systems
See Page 18, Figure 12. For larger installations, a
pressurised system may be used. In this type of
system the pump draws fuel from the tank, then
pushes it through the installation under pressure.
The pressure is controlled at the pump by a
pressure relief valve at approximately 0.8 BAR (12
psi). When a presurised system is used, a pressure
reducing valve set at approximately 0.3 BAR (5 psi)
should be installed on the fuel inlet to each heater
after the manual isolating valve. This protects the oil
pump from the danger of possible over pressure
under fault conditions.
The electrical supply for the pump installation will
depend upon the type of pumps chosen, but will
normally be set to run continuously.

8.2.3 Gravity Feed Systems
The simplest installation is a gravity feed system.
This system relies on the head of the fuel to push
the fuel through the system. See Page 12, Figure 3.

WARNING

Electrical Shock Hazard
Disconnect electrical power before servicing.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in
death or electrical shock.

9.2 Remote Controls
The heater is designed to be operated by controls
installed remotely from the heater. See Page 20,
Section 9.3. through Page 27, Section 9.10.
9.2.1 Burner Controls (Thermostat)
Controls to operate the burner must be voltage free
contacts connected between terminals 2 & 3 of the
main terminal block.

9.2.5 Controls for Fully Modulating Burners
For heaters that incorporate a fully modulating
burner, a special temperature control is provided
with the heater. On-site wiring of the temperature
sensor is required with any time control.
The heater will normally be controlled by the
temperature of the air in the outlet duct, but it is
possible to control on room temperature.
The position of the sensor in the outlet duct is
determined on site. Using a themometer, select a
position in the outlet duct approximately 1 m from
the heater, across the cross section of the duct that
provides a reasonable average of the temperatures
found. Mount the sensor at this position for best
results.
When operating at reduced heat input, the leaving
air temperature may be low when controlled on room
temperature.
The time control and any other on/off controls will be
across terminals 2 and 3. The sensor will be
connected to terminals 8 and 9.
The operation will occur in the following sequence:
1. The burner will fire. When the burner sequence
reaches the release to modulation stage, the
control will begin to monitor the outlet
temperature.
19

COMBAT® CABINET HEATERS INSTALLATION, COMMISSIONING, OPERATION AND SERVICE MANUAL

2. The control will then adjust the burner input
continuously to attempt to maintain the
temperature set on the control.
3. If the temperature continues to rise with the
burner operating at minimum fire, the control
will turn off the burner until the temperature falls
again, and the burner will restart.

If a switch is required to turn on the main fan for
ventilation, this must be voltage free, from external
sources, and may be connected between terminals
L1 & 1 for models 015 to 030 and terminals 2 & 1 for
all other models.

10.2 Commissioning the Burner (gas heaters)
High/Low and modulating burners have additional
specific requirements. Follow the manufacturer’s
instructions using the data provided on Page 8,
Section 4.4 through Page 10, Section 4.7.

10.2.3 Fire the Burner for Dungs Combination
Gas Valves
1. Open the gas isolating valve.
2. Connect a suitable pressure gauge to the
burner pressure test point.
3. On models 040 or larger, to ensure that start
gas only may pass to the burner, remove the
gas valve electrical plug for the main gas valve.
4. Reset the lockout button of the control box and
the burner should now fire. If lockout should
occur when the start gas valve energises (or
the main gas valve for models up to 030),
repeat 3 or 4 times. If after several attempts the
burner does not fire, then turn the start gas
governor adjusting screw (or main gas governor for models 015 to 030) 3 turns clockwise.

10.2.6 Check Gas Rate
It is important to check that the gas rate set during
the commissioning is within ± 5% of the required
flow rate.
This may be achieved by checking the gas flow to
the heater wherever possible by using the gas meter
and timing the flow through the meter. The results
should be compared with the required flow rate for
the model given in the Data Tables, adjusting the
burner pressure to correct for any error.
Checking the gas rate must be carried out with all
other appliances including any pilots, turned off.
1. After burner pressure adjustment, allow the
heater to operate for at least 15 minutes and
then re-check settings.
2. Remove the manometer and refit all covers to
the valve and tighten the screw of the outlet
pressure tap.

SECTION 10: COMMISSIONING

3. Check gas flow rate at gas meter.
10.3 Control - Gas-Fired Heaters
For High/Low and modulating burners, follow the
general sequence as described below and also
have extra functional stages related to air damper
positions. Refer to the burner manufacturers
instructions for further detail. Gas burners have only
one pressure switch, which is configured to cover
combustion air and reaction to increases in
combustion chamber pressure.

NOTE: If the pressure switch contacts (normally
closed) are open, the heater will not start.
2. The combustion air fan turns on and the pressure switch contacts close within the next 5
seconds to indicate sufficient combustion air or
lockout will occur.
3. The sequence continues with a purge period
with the burner fan running.
4. The electrical ignition switches ON at the end
of the purge period.
5. The start gas valve opens (main gas valve for
015 - 030) and once a flame has been established, this remains open until close down. The
flame probe is now continuously monitoring for
the safe presence of flame.
6. Five seconds later, the electric ignition turns off,
leaving the start gas flame to be proved as stable.
7. The start gas runs for ten seconds, then the
main gas valve opens. The control is now in its
normal run position

10.3.1 Description of Gas-Fired Heater Control
The gas fired burner fitted to all COMBAT® cabinet
heaters is controlled by a full sequence plug-in
control. This control ensures the safe start and stop
sequence and also monitors the safe presence of a
flame and burner air pressure.
Models 015 - 030 are wired for direct ignition of the
main flame. All other models are wired for ignition of
a start gas flame as the first stage and then the main
gas flame as the second stage.
10.3.2 Sequence of Operation
1. With the external controls on calling for heat,
and the pressure switch at rest, the burner fan
will switch on after the control does a "self
check".

Figure 17: Dungs Gas Valve

10.4 Gas Valves
Dungs Combination Gas Valve
All model 015 - 030 gas-fired burners operate as
direct main flame ignition and have no separate start
gas train. All other models operate with a first stage
start gas flame supplied from a start gas train
containing a start gas pressure regulator and two
safety shut-off valves, for all gas types.
The main gas is released at the second stage, and
the combination main gas valve block contains a
main burner pressure regulator and two safety shutoff valves, for all gas types. See Page 37, Figure 17.
For high/low or modulating burners, the Dungs gas
valve has extra features because it is an air/gas ratio
control valve. Please refer to the manufacturer’s
instructions for setting the controls.
10.4.1 Start Gas Valves
Where fitted, the start gas valve train is fitted with a
pressure regulator and two start gas safety shut off
valves. The start gas regulator is used to adjust the
burner firing rate during the start gas phase of these
models.
10.4.2 Main Gas Valves
See Page 37, Figure 17 for the position of the burner
pressure regulator. This must be used to set the
burner pressure indicated in the data tables in
Section 4.
For high/low or modulating burners, the Dungs gas
valve has extra features because it is an air/gas ratio
control valve. Please refer to the manufacturer’s
instructions for setting the controls.
10.4.3 Throughput Adjuster
These valves have a throughput adjuster fitted to the
second main gas valve. See Page 37, Figure 17.
This will be factory set at fully open on new

appliances and need no further adjustment. When
replacing a gas valve, ensure that this device is set
in the fully open position by releasing the locking
screw and turning the "V MAX" fully counterclockwise towards the "+" and then retightening the
locking screw.
10.4.4 Rate of Opening
The slow opening adjustment can be seen on Page
37, Figure 17. This device is a hydraulic damper
which slows down the rate of opening of the second
main gas valve to give a smooth main gas ignition.
This is preset at the factory at the slowest setting
and will need no further adjustment. If a new valve is
fitted, then remove the plastic screw on top and with
a small screwdriver turn the "V Start" screw fully
clockwise towards the "-" and refit the plastic cover.
10.5 Combustion Testing (all models)
Combustion quality must be tested to prove correct
heater operation. Incorrect results will indicate faults
with the installation or appliance.
Combustion testing must be carried out with all
covers in place. The flue gas is sampled in the flue,
within 1 meter of the heater. The values of CO2
should be between 9.5% and 10.0% for natural gas
and 11% for LPG, depending upon the model.
The CO will be up to 80 ppm (0.008%) dry, air free,
depending upon the model. Temperature rise of the
flue gases above ambient should be approximately
160°C to 180°C. Seal the test hole in the flue after
testing.
To alter combustion performance, open/close the
combustion air damper to reduce or increase these
values. Once adjusted to the optimum combustion
setting, lock the air damper into position. Repeat the
steps in Section 10.2.6.

COMBAT® CABINET HEATERS INSTALLATION, COMMISSIONING, OPERATION AND SERVICE MANUAL

10.5.1 Pressure Switch

WARNING

Electrical Shock Hazard
Use extreme caution while commissioning.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in
death or electrical shock.

Setting of the pressure switch must only be
carried out as part of a complete commission
which includes combustion testing.
Remove the cover of the pressure switch. With the
burner firing, turn the pressure switch dial to the
setting indicated for that model and burner. See
Page 8, Section 4.5 through Page 9, Section 4.6.
10.5.2 Complete the Commissioning
Ensure that all covers are fitted correctly and all test
points are properly sealed.

10.6 Commissioning the Burner (Oil Heaters)
Check all valves between the fuel tank and the
heater are open, including the fire valve.
Ensure that oil is available at the heater inlet and
that the air has been vented from the fuel pipe
installation. Vent the air by opening the bleed screw
on top of the fuel filter. On pressurised systems,
check that the installation is running at the correct
pressure. B.M. oil lifters will need priming.
10.6.1
Ensure that the burner head and air damper settings
are adjusted for the correct burner and that the
correct atomising nozzle is fitted. See Page 10,
Section 4.7 and the burner reference number on the
data plate.
10.6.2 Preparation for Burner Pressure Test
Attach a pressure gauge 0-15 BAR (0 - 200 psi) to
the burner pump pressure test port. (See
manufacturer’s information). A test manifold gives
you the facility for the connection of the pressure
gauge and the venting of the pump.
10.7 Control - Oil-Fired Heaters
For High/Low oil burners, follow the general
sequence as described below and also have extra
functional stages related to air damper positions.
Refer to the burner manufacturer’s instructions for
further detail.

10.7.1 Description of Oil Fired Heater Control
The oil fired burners fitted to the heater are
controlled by a fully automatic control and
photoelectric flame monitor unit. This control
ensures the safe start,
ignition and stop sequence and also monitors the
flame. If the flame should fail the control will go into
"lockout". The button on ther front of the control will
illuminate to indicate lockout. Press the button to
reset the control to restart the burner firing cycle.
Figure 18: Oil-Fired Heaters Control Box Sequence
10.5.3 High/Low and Modulating Burners
After setting the minimum burner input and
combustion, the following check must be made:
Run the heater on low fire for a minimum of 15
minutes. Check the flue gas temperature. If the flue
gas temperature falls below 125° C, increase the low
fire gas setting until the temperature reaches 125° C,
otherwise condensation may form.

38

SECTION 10: COMMISSIONING

10.7.2 Sequence of Operation
The operating sequence is as follows:
With the external controls on and calling for heat,
the burner fan and electric ignition will switch on.
After a combustion air purge of approximately twelve
seconds, the oil solenoid valve will open and the
burner will fire. After another five seconds, the
electric ignition is turned off and the burner will go
into its normal run position. The photo cell
continuously monitors the safe presence of the
flame. When the temperature control is satisfied, the
control box will turn off all its outputs simultaneously
and return to the rest position for the beginning of
the next sequence.
10.7.3 Fault Display Messages
On burner failure, the red LED is permanently
illuminated for a period of approximately 10
seconds, followed by a brief “dark phase”, then one
of the following flash-codes will indicate the cause of
the fault. See Table 1 and Table 2. This indication
will repeat as long as the lockout reset button is not
reset.

pump at the same time by loosening the pump vent
port (pump must be running). If the burner goes into
"lockout" before the pump has vented, wait one
minute, then reset the control box and repeat 10.7.5
until all the air has been vented from the pump and
the burner fires.
NOTE: The burner plug and socket may be used to
turn off the burner during commissioning.
10.7.6 Adjust Burner Oil Pressure
Adjust the burner oil pressure to the value in the
data table for the burner reference letter and burner
manufacturer’s information for details of the burner
oil pump. When completed, turn off burner and
remove test gauge and refit plug.
10.7.7 Set Combustion Air
The combustion air must be set. Measure the
emissions in the flue at a point within one metre from
the outlet of the heater and adjust for the highest
carbon dioxide (CO2) levels obtainable, usually 10.5
- 11.0%, while making little or no smoke (smoke
number 0-1). The test must be carried out with all
covers fitted and after the heater has been running
for 15 minutes.
10.7.8 Complete the Commissioning
Test the burner for correct start and stop operation
several times. Check that all safety devices operate
correctly. Inspect the heater for any oil leaks and
repair where necessary.
10.8 Turning Off the Heater (all models)
Set the external controls to the “off” position and the
main burner will stop. The fans will run until they are
stopped automatically by the fan thermostat.

10.7.4 Fault Conditions
If at any stage during normal running the photo
electric cell fails to detect the flame, the control will
switch off and make an instant restart attempt. If the
flame signal is still missing, “lockout” will occur.
If the flame is not detected by the photo cell during a
normal start, there will be no restart attempt and
“lockout” will occur in approximately 17 seconds
after the start.
If a flame is detected during the first 12 seconds
(purge), the solenoid valve will not open and the
control will “lockout”. For the control sequence, see
Page 38, Figure 18.

Do not use Electrical Isolator for control of
heater. The Electrical Isolator will switch off the
fan. The heat exchanger could be damaged. The
Warranty will not cover damage to the heat
exchanger if operated improperly.
10.9 External Controls
External controls may include a time switch, room
thermostat and frost thermostat. Operate each
control to ensure that they function correctly. Set the
time switch (if fitted) and room thermostat to the
user’s requirements.
10.10 Instruction to the User
Explain the controls of the heater to the user,
including how to turn it on and off, using the controls
fitted on site.

to low fire. If the temperature rises to the second set
point, the burner will turn off. The burner will come
on again at either High or Low fire, depending on the
thermostat set point.
Set the two stage thermostat to the desired
temperature.
Modulating Operation
The on-site control for modulating burners is a
temperature controller that provides a varying output
signal dependant upon the ambient temperature to
the control. The burner firing rate will continuously
vary between the maximum and minimum setting. If
the temperature rises with the firing rate set to the
minimum, the burner will shut down. Set the
operating temperature according to the instructions
provided with the control.
11.2 Common User Controls (all models)
11.2.1 Combination Fan/Limit Thermostat
The Combination Fan/Limit Thermostat is located at
the top right side of the heater.
This control ensures the heater does not blow cold
air in the normal heating cycle and protects the heat
exchanger against overheating.
Figure 20: Fan/Limit Thermostat

11.1.1 Heater Operation
When the heater has been switched on by the
remote controls installed on site, the main burner will
automatically turn on. The burner control will control
the safe ignition of the flame. When the heat
exchanger is sufficiently heated, the fan thermostat
turns on the main fan(s).
All heaters require a constant gas and electricity
supply, which must not be interrupted during the
normal operation of this heater.
NOTE: The fan will come on during burner firing for
horizontally mounted and high-flow heaters and
modulating burners.

11.1.2 Heater Operation (high/low or modulating)
The heater will operate as described in Section
11.1.1 with these added features:
High/Low Operation
A second limit thermostat or a two-stage thermostat
will be installed on site so that as the temperature
reaches the first set point, the firing rate will reduce
40

If the air flow is reduced due to power failure, the
limit thermostat will cause the burner to lockout.

If control locks out, do not make more than 3
attempts to restart the heater.
Dangerous fuel mixtures can build up.
The fault must be traced and repaired by a
registered installer or service engineer.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in
death, injury or property damage.

11.2.2 Burner Lockout Reset Button
The red warning light built into the burner control
box will illuminate when the control has gone to
lockout. This may be caused by flame failure. Wait
one minute then press the reset button.
11.3 Lighting Instructions (all models)
11.3.1 To Turn On Heater
1. Ensure that the electrical and gas supplies to
the heater are on. Check that the on-site controls are “ON”.
NOTE: The thermostat setting must be above the
ambient temperature for the heater to operate.
2. The automatic firing sequence will begin as
described on Page 40, Figure 19. The heater
will now operate automatically under the control
of the on-site controls. Following long shut
down periods, the control may go to lockout.
See Page 41, Section 11.2.2.

11.4 Simple Fault Finding (all models)
Some possible reasons for the heater not operating
are:
1. Gas supply not turned ON.
2. Electricity supply not turned ON.
3. The time and/or temperature controls are not
ON.
4. The Limit Thermostat may have operated. This
may be caused by an interruption of the electrical supply or failure of the distribution fan.
5. The burner supply plug has been disconnected.
If the Limit Thermostat persistently operates, there
is a fault which must be investigated by a contractor
qualified in the installation and service of gas or oilfired heating equipment.
NOTE: If the main fan runs continuously, the white
button (Figure 20) may have been pressed in - make
sure it is pulled out. Alternatively, if a remote fan
switch is fitted it may be in the ON position.
11.4.1 Simple Fault Finding (burner faults)
If the burner fails to ignite for any reason, it will go to
lockout. This will be indicated by the red light on the
heater or at the remote indicator (if fitted).
1. Press in and release the lockout reset button on
the burner or, if fitted, the remote reset.
Lockout should not occur during normal operation of
the heater and indicates there is a fault condition
which must be corrected.
11.4.2 Simple Fault Finding (oil fired heaters)
Make sure the appliance fuel valve is open and
there is oil in the tank. If the fuel tank or lines have
run dry, the fuel system will need to be vented. For
venting oil-fired heaters, See Page 38, Section 10.6
through Section 10.7.5.

11.3.2 To Turn the Heater Off
Set the installed remote controls to the “OFF”
position or turn down the remote thermostat below
the ambient temperature.
The burner will turn off immediately.
The fan will continue to run for a few minutes.
To restart, turn the remote control to “ON".
If the heater will remain off for a long period of time,
when the main fan(s) have stopped, turn off the fuel
supply valve and main electrical isolator. To restart
open the fuel supply valve and follow the
instructions in Section 11.3.1.

14.4 Troubleshooting for Flame Supervision System
The flame supervision system is different for gas-fired and oil-fired heaters but may be tested in a
similar way.
Gas-fired heaters use a rectification flame probe to monitor the flame.
Oil-fired heaters use a photo sensitive cell to monitor the flame.
To connect a suitable meter into the circuit to monitor the flame signal current, disconnect one of the
wires to the monitor (there is only one for gas-fired).
Connect a suitable DC ammeter between the terminal just disconnected and the wire taken from it.
Should the meter read backwards, then reverse its connections.
Readings should be approximately as follows(For further details see burner manufacturer’s
instructions):
