TYPE OF PROBLEM
The burner goes to lock-out
with the flame on (Red lamp on)
The trouble is in the flame
control device
The burner goes to lock-out
spraying fuel but the flame
does not ignite (Red lamp on).
The trouble is in the ignition
device, providing the fuel is in
a good condition (not polluted)
with water or other impurities)
and sufficiently atomized.
The burner goes into lock-out
spraying fuel but the flame
does not ignite. (red light on).
The burner goes into lock-out
without spraying fuel (Red
lamp on).
Noisy burner pump
POSSIBLE CAUSE
•
Photoresistance severed or fouled with smoke
•
Insufficient draught
•
Photocell circuit interrupted
•
Fouled disc or opening
•
Ignition circuit severed.
•
The ignition transformer leads have dried out.
•
The ignition transformer cables are not well
connected.
•
Ignition transformer interrupted.
•
The electrode faces are not at the right distance.
•
The electrodes discharge to ground because they
are fouled or because the insulation is cracked.
Check also under the fastening terminals of the
insulating elements.
•
Pump pressure is not normal
•
Water in the fuel
•
Excess combustion air
•
Air passage between disk and blast tube
•
Nozzle worn out or fouled
•
Missing phase
•
Inefficient electric motor
•
Gas oil not reaching the pump
•
No gas-oil in the tank
•
Gate valve on the intake pipe is closed
•
Clogged nozzle
•
Motor (three-phase) rotates in opposite direction
to that indicated by the arrow
•
Foot valve leaks or is jammed
•
Faulty pump
•
Inefficient solenoid valve
•
Voltage too low
•
Pipe diameter too small
•
Air infiltration in the pipes
•
Dirty coarse filter
•
Excessive distance between the tank and the
burner or many accidental leakages (curves,
elbows, choking, etc.)
•
Deteriorated flexible pipes
