INTRODUCTION

MAINTENANCE

This section is divided into two parts:

•The first part describes the maintenance procedures.

•The second part helps you to identify problems that may occur, and gives advice on how to solve these problems.

Preventative maintenance is the key to a reliable, safe and efficient system.The core of any preventive maintenance program is a list of periodic tasks.

In the paragraphs that follow are suggestions for a monthly list and a yearly list.

Note:

The monthly list and the yearly list are an average interval. If your environment is dirty, then the intervals may be shorter.

Caution:

Turn off power before disconnecting or installing sensors, con- trols or modules.

Monthly Checklist

1. Inspect flame-sensing devices for good condition and cleanliness. Keep the glass lens of scanners clean with a soft, damp cloth, since small amounts of dust will measurably reduce the flame signal strength.Wash the flame rod electrode and insulator with soap and water, then rinse and dry thoroughly.

2. Test all the alarm systems for proper signals.

3. Check ignition spark electrodes and check proper gap.

4. Test interlock sequence of all safety equipment as described in Test Procedures: manually make each interlock fail, noting what related equipment closes or stops as specified by the manufac- turer.

Test flame safeguard by manually shutting off gas to the burner.
