Working inlet pressure
More infoHide infoAt the inlet gas pressure test point on the gas cock, boiler at maximum rate (MI 7.3, Fig. 47). Technical data gives inlet pressure 20 mbar, and fault finding (11.1) gives a preferred minimum gas pressure of 20 mbar. Fault finding chart H gives the natural gas supply pressure as greater than 10–11 mbar.
