Combustion figures

FigureNatural gas (G20)LPG (G31)
CO₂ at high rate
More infoHide infoMI 14.1 gives one figure for all 3 fan speeds: ‘100’ (maximum), the Ignition Phase speed and ‘00’ (minimum). Combustion is factory set; MI 10.1 says no measurement of the combustion is needed at commissioning and not to adjust the air/gas ratio valve.
9.0% ± 0.710.5% ± 1.0
CO₂ at low rate
More infoHide infoSame figure as high rate (MI 14.1, all 3 fan speeds).

Working inlet pressure
More infoHide infoMI 10.3 gives one figure for the inlet test point on the gas cock or the gas valve, at maximum rate: ‘AT LEAST 17mb ! (LPG - 37mb)’. Fault finding (MI 17.0, G) says at the gas valve: NG minimum 17 mbar, Propane minimum 37 mbar. Technical data (MI 4.1) gives nominal inlet pressure NG 20 mbar, Propane 37 mbar, point not stated. Initial fault finding checks (MI 17.1) say the preferred minimum gas pressure is 20 mbar (NG), 37 mbar (LPG).
