3 Brief Description
3 Brief Description
The Burner Control FA1 is suitable for control of burners and combustion systems for gase-
ous, liquid and solid fuels, with permanent operation, also in hot air generators.
Connections for Interbus-S, PROFIBUS DP, CANopen, TCP/IP (Modbus TCP) and Modbus
RTU are available as optional equipment. The connection of other plant components e.g. O2
trim is by the LAMTEC SYSTEM BUS interface to a 9-pole Sub-D connector.
The operation is via optional PC software or programming unit. As display for end user, a cus-
tomer interface is connectable by LAMTEC SYSTEM BUS. The operation by PC software is
described in a separate manual
The FA1 continuously monitors its own functions and those of the connected control elements.
230 V outputs:
– actuation of the gas valves
– actuation of the oil valves
– actuation of the oil pump/rotary atomiser
– actuation of the ignition valve and the ignition transformer
– fan release
– fault message
– OPEN/CLOSE control signals (three-point-step or 4 ... 20 mA) for the mechanical fuel/air
ratio control
External signals to the FA1 are transmitted via floating contacts or chains of contacts.
The following signals can be pre-set:
– 3 separate safety interlock chains
– gas < max
– air pressure monitor
– pre-purge suppression
– minimum gas pressure monitor (for valve leakage test) gas >min
– flame signal
– burner on
– fuel selection
– oil pressure min / atomiser air pressure
– oil pressure max
– ignition position acknowledgement
– internal burner firing rate controller in combination with the control output

5 Operating Description
5 Operating Description
(see example diagrams in chapter 11.7 Process Sequence Charts)
A signal is first fed to terminal 58 (Burner On) indicating when the burner is to start. The Burner
Control FA1 then interrogates the boiler safety interlock circuit and the air pressure monitor
contact. If it does not detect a proper condition, the text of a corresponding message is indi-
cated and the operating control stops.
If all signals are in proper condition, the fan output is activated and the channel runs to his
bottom stop as a check.
If the channel has reached his bottom stop, it opens for aeration. The valve leakage test runs
in parallel (gas operation only).
In the case of control element the aeration is used to enter and/or test the range limit. After
reaching its top position, the mechanical fuel/air ratio control element remains in the open po-
sition. The FA1 then interrogates the air pressure monitor. If this signal is in proper condtioion,
the parameter set aeration time runs. When this time has expired the channel runs to the pro-
grammed ignition position. Once the channel has reached the ignition position the ignition
transformer is activated on its own for 3 seconds. The oil pump also starts up during oil oper-
ation
Before the valves open the respective fuel safety interlock circuit must be closed.
5.1 Starting without Pilot Burner
The main valves open and together with the ignition transformer remain activated for the du-
ration of the safety time. During this time the flame signal appears.
5.2 Starting with Pilot Burner
The ignition valve and main gas 1 (in gas operation) or the ignition valve alone (in oil operation)
run open. The pilot flame forms and the flame detection detects the flame. The flame detection
sends the signal to the burner control device.
On expiry of the 1st safety time, the ignition transformer switches off. For 3 sec. (stabilisation
time) the pilot burner burns alone. Then main gas 2 or the oil valve opens and remains acti-
vated in parallel with the ignition valve for the duration of the 2nd safety time. The ignition valve
closes again at the end of this period.
3 seconds after ignition, all channels run to the programmed base firing rate point. The FA1
remains in base firing rate position until control release is given.
After control release the FA1 follows the power control unit’s default setting.
A shut off follows the cancelling of the signal of the terminal 58. The main valves close. In gas
operation, first main gas 1 and second main gas 2 closes with a delay of approx. 5 sec., in
order to allow the test line between the solenoid valves to burn out. In the event of a fault shut-
down, both close immediately.
If configured for post-purge, the air channels open again for this period.
Thereafter the FA1 is in the "OFF" mode.

8 Internal Burner Firing Rate Controller

8.1 Purpose
The internal firing rate controller calculates the burner firing rate against a pre-defined setpoint
value (e.g. as a function of temperature or pressure) by comparison with the actual value. This
position will be transferred to the electronic fuel/air ratio control as a default value.
8.2 Brief Description
The integral firing rate control unit is a PID controller with special combustion engineering
functions. You can use it as a fixed value control or as a control by atmospheric condition. The
following signals can be pre-set:
• Actual value (temperaturePT 100 max 320 °C or steam pressure)
• Outside temperature or another analog signal for setpoint shift (only on control by atmos-
pheric condition). The FA1 must be equipped with the optional hardware for control by at-
mospheric condition.
• Setpoint switching (via floating contact). The burner firing rate controller releases the com-
bustion internally.
Combustion is triggered internally by the power control unit.
8.3 Range Limits
You must set limit values in the parameters, switching the burner on and off. After a burner
shut-down while actual temperature has not reached the switch-on threshold yet, a display will
inform you that firing rate controller is refusing a start-up.
8.4 Moving Screen "Actual Temperature is too high"
Press key F3 MANUAL to start the FA1, even if the display shows the running text,
subject to the condition, that the maximum temperature is not exceeded.
Press key F3 MANUAL again to switch back to AUTOMATIC mode.
NOTICE
The limit values should always be entered in the form of a difference from the setpoint value.
8.5 How to Change the Burner-Firing-Rate Controller with the Customer Interface
This function works only if the burner is in operation.
CAUTION!
If you change the setpoint, regard that also the on and off switchpoints are shifted, since they
are defined as a difference value to the setpoint.
31
8.6 Changing Setpoint of Burner-Firing-Rate Controller
With an activated constant control:

Set the firing rate with keys 16 and 17. On the left side of the display, the actual set-
point 1 or setpoint 2 will be showed depending on the value terminal 50 has (0 V at
terminal 50 = setpoint 1, 24 V on terminal 50 = setpoint 2).
Press key 6 and key 9 simultaneously, left value flashes in display (setpoint).
Setpoint can be changed with keys 4 and 5.
Press key 11 ENTER to save the new setpoint, .
Press keys 7 and 8 simultaneously to end the function ’Set power control unit’ with-
out saving the setpoint.
8.7 Input Signals
The analogue inputs can be preset in various forms.

Actual value:
• as 0/4 ... 20 mA current signal, terminals 4 and 5 (+), 3 (-)
• as non active current signal 4 ... 20 mA (two-wire connection), terminal 23, + 24 V supply,
terminals 4 and 5 input
• as 0 ... 10 V voltage signal
• as 0 ... 5 k resistance signal, terminal 4, 5 and 6
• directly as Pt100 terminal 21, 20, 19 as three-wire connection (0 ... 320 °C/32 ... 608 °F)
Outside temperature (setpoint-shifting) - only available with the option "control by atmospheric
condition"
• as Pt100 (0 ... 320 °C/32 ... 608 °F) as three-wire connection, terminals 39, 40, 41 (de-
fault)
• as 4 ... 20 mA current signal, terminals 39 (-) and 40 (+),
(special option, please order separately)
• as non active current signal 4 ... 20 mA, term. 23 + 24V supply, terminal 40 input
8.8 Operating Description
The burner start-up is carried out as described above. At least ’Burner ON’ signal and ’Re-
lease’ must be sent by firing rate controller.
The burner starts as soon as it is receiving signals ’Burner ON’ and ’Release’ from firing rate
controller. The firing rate controller is in operation not before the burner is running and the sig-
nal ’Control Release’ is pending.
The default value of firing rate for fuel/air ratio control is set via integral firing rate controller.
Depending on the difference between actual and setpoint value and adjusted control param-
eters this default firing rate value is set. When actual value is exceeding to maximum value
the firing rate controller switches OFF combustion.
The firing rate controller is active in AUTOMATIC mode only.
32
8.9 Steam Pressure
If you get a steam-pressure signal from a pressure transmitter on terminal 3, 4 and 5, you must
short-circuit the PT100 input at terminal 20 and 21.
8.10 Control by Atmospheric Condition
If the burner firing rate controller is configured as "controlled by atmospheric conditions" the
setpoint value can be shifted between the parameterised setpoint minimum and setpoint max-
imum by connecting another PT 100 temperature sensor. When utilising control by atmos-
pheric conditions, the outside temperature is a component of setpoint calculation. This allows
the operator to enter a minimum and a maximum setpoint, between which the outside temper-
ature can determine the final setpoint value.
Fig. 8-1 Control by atmospheric conditions
8.11 Setpoint Changeover
You can switch the setpoint with the input "setpoint switchover". If you use a version with fixed
setpoint value it is possible to select one of the two values, which are entered in the parame-
ters 796 and 798 with this contact.
If you have activated the control by atmospheric conditions additionally, you can select be-
tween two pairs of limit values (see control by atmospheric conditions and limit ranges). The
parameters for setpoint 1 (for setpoint switching) and setpoint min. 1 (for control by atmos-
pheric conditions) are equal. Likewise the parameters setpoint 2 and setpoint min. 2. The cor-
responding content is assigned according to the configuration.
When activating the "control by atmospheric conditions” option and setting the adjustable pa-
rameters, you may realise an external setpoint default. In other words, the setpoint can be ad-
justed manually or automatically via a potentiometer (or switched through resistors). By
connecting a change-over switch, you can implement a night-time reduction instead of control
by atmospheric conditions. A control by atmospheric conditions and a night-time reduction can
be realised simultaneously, if you combine the control by atmospheric conditions with the set-
point switching.

point Switching of the Firing Rate Controller"
8.12 Start-up Sequence
The firing rate controller has a startup circuit, in order to slow down the burner's start firing rate.
The startup circuit is run during each new burner start. The internal firing rate is held at a value
P 792 adjustable by the user, for as long as the boiler is cold (actual value is below a user-
adjustable limit, P 791). If the controller’s actual value is equal to or larger than the parame-
terised startup maximum temperature, this startup circuit is cancelled.
In order to prevent a situation where an excessively large demand on system output, the boiler
temperature necessary to cancel the startup circuit is not reached, a startup timer is also trig-
gered in parallel (this timer can also be adjusted by the operator, P 793). Once the internal
firing rate reaches the parameterised startup firing rate, the output is increased linearly step-
wise up to the maximum firing rate. The slope of this linear increase is calculated from the pa-
rameterised startup time.

8.13 Thermostat and Control Range
NOTICE
This function can replace the control thermostat, which is required on the plant.
It does not replace a safety thermostat.
The thermostat function switches the burner on and off on the basis of the temperature and/
or pressure value, but only when burner is released by the start signal. The control range is
formed by entering the controller setpoint value and the parameters P 802 (switch-on point),
P803 (upper control range) and P 804 (burner OFF). The cut-off hysteresis is divided into 2
ranges. The first part lies above the setpoint and forms the upper control range. The second
part lies below the setpoint and forms the lower control range.
The control range may lie asymmetrically around the setpoint.
The power control unit functions within the upper and lower control range according to its set-
tings in the parameters and the default values.
35
If the actual value of the control unit reaches the shut-down range, the base firing rate request
is emitted. If the control unit’s setpoint exceed the shut-down range a control shut-off occurs.
This is done by internal processing. If the actual value drops below the lower control range, a
re-start can occur.

Press key MANUAL to move the regular firing rate input of the firing rate controller.
Press the keys 2 and 3 to variegate the burner firing rate.
Press key MANUAL again to cancel firing rate controller.
It is also possible to switch the FA1 to "Manual Control" with the terminals. By short-circuiting
the Pt100 signal (e.g. bridge terminal 19 and 20) the burner firing rate controller is switched
off. The fuel/air ratio controller then directly follows the input at the default firing rate input. The
display shows LE instead of HA.
NOTICE
Only use manual control while monitoring the system.
8.15 How to Adjust the Burner Firing Rate Controller
Only adjust the burner firing rate controller with the parameters.
8.16 Control Range
The control range lies around the setpoint. The content of the "Burner on" parameter is sub-
tracted from the setpoint value to form the switch-on value. The value of the "Upper control
range" parameter (P 803) is added to the setpoint value to form the upper limit of the control
range. The control range may therefore lie asymmetrically around the setpoint.The shut-off
range is upwardly limited by the "Burner off" parameter (P 804). The parameter is added to
the setpoint value. If this value is exceeded, the burner is shut off.
The range between "Upper control range" and "Burner off" forms the shut-off range. If the ac-
tual value reaches this range, the to cancel firing rate controller, press key "Manual" again runs
at base firing rate.
It also follows from this that the value in "Burner Off", is generally higher than that in "Upper
control range". Otherwise there is no shut-off range and the burner is shut off on immediately
reaching the limit.
The burner 'ON' switching point also can be located above the setpoint. In this case the pa-
rameter 802 has to be set negative (<0).

8.17 Checking the Safety Limiter
For testing purposes of the safety limiter change the setpoint. This also causes a change in
shut-off range as well. The safety limiter can therefore be overrun in manual mode.
8.18 Control Mode
The firing rate controller tries to bring the actual value into line with the setpoint value. In doing
so, a direct correlation is assumed between internal firing- ate and boiler temperature, e.g. the
greater the internal firing rate, the faster the boiler temperature rises. Should the curves be
programmed differently, the firing rate controller will not function.
Four parameters determine the control action.
• Adjustment time
The adjustment time determines at what intervals the deviation is checked and the new
adjustment is determined.
• P term
The proportional term acts directly on the deviation, that is the difference between setpoint
value and actual value.
P > → higher step response
• I term
The integral term is calculated from the instantaneous deviation and the previous devia-
tion from the setpoint value.
I > → faster approximation to the setpoint
danger of overshooting!
• D term
The derivative term is calculated from the variation of the actual values. It has acceleration
and respectively slowing effects.
In practice the adjustment of the PID-controller is specified to each controlled system. With
the characteristics of the controlled system you try to deduce acceptable data, i.e. the values
are defined experimentally
• P term, I term, D term are added together and act as adjustment on the firing rate default
for the ratio control. The value is added up, starting from the instantaneous internal firing
rate.
• As long as the actual value is below the setpoint, P term and I term are positive, that is to
say both these term will increase the firing rate default.
• Only the D term is negative in such a case (assuming that the boiler temperature is rising).
Use the D factor sparingly because it leads to a higher burden of the actuators.
• In order to avoid excessive overshoot during burner start-up, the parameters should be
adjusted to achieve a suitably large D-term.
• If, despite a large setpoint deviation, the burner is not running at full firing rate or base firing
rate, the P term should be increased.
• The longer the adjustment time, the quieter the group. However, this also increases the
actual value's deviation from the setpoint value and leads to slower adjustment.

9 Valve Leakage Test

The gas valve leakage test checks the integrity of main gas valves 1 & 2. The supply gas pres-
sure is used to carry out this automatic test procedure. After a controlled burner shutdown, any
gas in test line (the space within the pipework between the two main gas valves) will have
been burnt off and so the pressure in the test section should be atmospheric i.e. gas pressure
> min = 0.
The FA1 checks this and if true then Main gas valve 1 is opened for a short time to allow gas
to flow into the test line.
The FA1 checks that the gas pressure > min value changes to = 1. This pressure condition
must remain for 30 seconds after which the gas valve leakage test is deemed successful and
complete.
If the valve leakage test line is not empty at the start (e.g. as a result of a previous fault shut-
down), main gas valve 2 opens first. The valve leakage test line is vented (into the combustion
chamber or over the roof, depending on the system; for suggested circuit, see Appendix). It is
checked, whether the line remains pressureless for 30 seconds. Otherwise the procedure is,
as described previously.
The valve leakage test is performed before ignition.
The pressure monitor for the valve leakage test line must be connected to ’Gas pressure >min’
input (terminal 47). This also monitors the minimum gas pressure during normal operation. If
there is a requirement for another minimum pressure device to be monitored during normal
operation then this should be incorporated into gas safety interlock for this purpose.
However, the test line must be designed to ensure that the test time of 30 seconds per valve
is sufficient for reliable detection of a 0.1% leak of the fuel gas consumed at maximum com-
bustion heat output, but at least 50 dm3/h.
NOTICE
Respect the national safety regulations and standards.

9.1 Valve Leakage Test Flow Chart
Fig. 9-1 Valve leakage test flow chart
41
9.2 Calculation Example
With FA1 the gas pressure monitor is also applicable to the monitoring of minimal gas pres-
sure. Therefore the minimal gas pressure of the burner must be set.
The valve leakage test time t3 (P 311) would be set by FA1. The time t2 for FA1 is fixed to 2s.
The time t3 (P 311) must be set in a way that the maximum allowable leakage rate QLeck can
be securely detected. The maximum leakage rate stated in EN1643 and ISO23551-4 is 0.1%
of the nominal volumetric flow of the gases or a minimum of 50l/h.
Example 1
Burner capacity =1000 KW
Fuel = natural gas H, calorific value = 10 kW/m3
Nominal volumetric flow of the gases = 100 m3/h
Leakage rate max. = 0,1 m3/h or 100l/h
Example 2
Burner capacity =1000 KW
Fuel = propane, calorific value = 25,9 kW/m3
Nominal volumetric flow of propane = 38,6 m3/h
Leakage rate max. = 50 l/h (not 38,6 l/h)
Calculation
Fig. 9-2 Principle scheme

The test volume Vtest must be calculated with tube diameter and valve volume. The value vol-
umes are provided by the valve manufacturer. If valve 1 and valve 2 are be used as a double
valve, the test volume would be provided by the valve manufacturer.
The leakage test VLeak is calculated according to the Boyle-Mariotte principle.

p = absolute pressure
V = gas volume
This is valid for the test of valve 1 V1:
Should t3 be negative, at least 1s must be set.

If the calculation of t3 for valve 2 is higher than t3 for valve 1, the value for the calculation of
valve 2 must be adjusted.

10.1 Standby mode
In this mode the FA1 enables a switchback to pilot burner mode. The burner re-starts without
pre-purge in the 2nd safety time.
You can activate STANDBY mode, if the internal firing rate controller is active or if an external
input or output command can be connected to LSB module or fieldbus (see parameter 812,
access level 4).
As soon as the burner firing rate controller detects that a shutdown of the burner is necessary,
the burner closes the contact at the LSB or the appropriate bit is set to high by field bus. This
does not lead to a shut down. STANBY mode is activated instead.
The STANDBY mode drives the firing rate value to the ignition point and waits for ignition
acknowledgement. Ignition valve and ignition transformer are switched on first. The recircula-
tion channels run to CLOSE position. Ignition position has to be active. After an idle time (sta-
bilisation time) the valve gas 1 (if fuel = gas) is closed for purging the gas system.
Afterwards all fuel valves but the ignition valve stay closed. If set the performing of a valve
leakage test after operation at fuel gas starts now.
Afterwards the ignition transformer shuts OFF. Only the ignition valve remains open.

The sequencer is now in STANDBY mode with active pilot flame. Ignition position acknowl-
edgement must apply all the time.
As soon as one of the following incidences happen, the parameter set ignition sequence of
the fuel is executed without switching on the ignition transformer:
– Boiler pressure or boiler temperature have lapsed to that point, where the burner would
start again (with internal firing rate controller)
– As soon as the LSB contact (terminal 1) opens again.
– As soon as the command is transferred by fieldbus.
This may occur after valve leakage test, before operation, with fuel gas and without the trans-
former leading time (analogue changing by pilot burner  ignite the new fuel)
NOTICE
At combustion plants with just one flame detector, ensure, that the main flame is always ignit-
ed by the pilot flame. Otherwise use one flame detector for the main flame and one for the pilot
flame.
If the "Burner ON" signal will be removed during stand-by mode, the FA1 switches OFF. This
shut-off proceeds like a shut-off out of the modes BASE FIRING RATE/CONTROL with all it’s
parameter set procedures.
In oil operation the output for the oil pump stays active.

NOTICE
Since it's not sure how long the STANDBY mode applies, a separate pilot flame monitoring
must be approved for continuous operation, or main flame and pilot flame are monitored to-
gether with one flame scanner, approved for continuous operation.

11.2 Flame Monitoring
11.2.1 Integral Flame Monitoring (Option)
11.2.1.1 Purpose
The integral flame monitoring system is primarily used for standard applications (e.g. oil or gas
flames at a burner in a combustion chamber) because of it’s limited adjustment possibilities.
NOTICE
We recommend the LAMTEC flame monitoring systems (like F300K, F200K2), if you have
other requirements for the flame monitoring (e.g. combustion of coal dust). You will find infor-
mation on this devices in the corresponding manuals (DLT7650, DLT7600 and DLT7502/
DLT7503).
The task of the flame monitoring device is to scan the burner’s flame in combustion plants un-
affected from any condition in the combustion chamber (e.g. glowing nogging) and to release
the closing of the fuel valves at a flame blow out with an internal control command of the burn-
er control system.
The flame monitoring device has the following tasks:
– Scanning the burner flame unaffected of the conditions in the combustion chamber (e.g.
glowing refractory lining)
– internal release of the control command to close the fuel valves at a flame blow out with
the burner control system
Connect the following LAMTEC flame sensors:
FFS08 IR/UV, FFS07 IR/UV (also in version for Ex zone 1 or Ex zone 2).
11.2.1.2 Characteristics flame sensor
Input variables - optical flame sensor

Required input values from the flame's emitted radiation indication "Flame present”
– Spectral radiation region = 260......400nm (FFS07 UV-1, FFS08 UV-1)
– Spectral radiation region = 215....360 nm (FFS07 UV-4, FFS08 UV-4, replace UV-2)
– Spectral radiation region = 1200....2800 nm (FFS08 IR-1, FFS07 IR-1, FFS07 IR-1 T,
FFS08 IR-1T, FFS08 IR-1 T/S2)
– Pulse frequency ca. 10...200 Hz
– Pulse amplitude 10mV
11.2.1.3 Self Monitoring
– Signal processing with two separately constructed and alternately activated transmission
channels.
– Continuous comparison of the output levels for anticoincidence.
The transmission range of the digital frequency analysis covers signal transmittance between
10Hz or 25Hz (factory configuration) and 200 Hz.
Mains frequency signals and their harmonics are filtered, with a filter bandwidth of 3 Hz.
Setting of the sensitivity of the flame scanner FFS08 IR, FFS07 IR/UV.
Adjust sensitivity with switch S1 and S2. The switches are placed inside the scanner housing.

11.2.2 General Information of the Optical Flame Monitoring
Notes on assembly and installation

The processes that occur during combustion give rise, inter alia, to a pulsing component of
the flame's radiation (flame flickering), whose oscillations (flame frequency) are relatively rap-
id at the flame's root (i.e. near the burner's mouth) and become slower toward is tip.
For individual monitoring, the flame sensor should be aligned in that way, that the first third of
the flame is observed.
The flame sensor's correct alignment is essential for achieving a high degree of availability
and/or selectivity.
WARNING!
We recommend to lay the supply cable, including their extension, on separate cable trays to
keep mains and control lines as well as high-energy power lines and equipment separated
from each other (e.g. ignition lines, ignition transformer, electrical motors, contactors). More-
over, avoid any parallel cable routing together with mains cables in trays
11.2.3 Optical Flame Sensors
11.2.3.1 Switching to Display the Flame Intensity
FFS07, FFS05 (is replaced by FFS07) and subtypes.

The sensor's circuit components are located on printed circuit board (PCBs) in a cylindrical
housing with a spray-proof, axial optical aperture.
The sensor meets the requirements of protection class IP 65.
Optical flame sensor FFS08, FFS06 (is replaced by FFS08) and subtypes (standard sensor
for FA1)
The sensor's circuit components are located on printed circuit boards (PCBs) in a cylindrical
housing with a spray-proof, lateral optical aperture. The sensor meets the requirements of pro-
tection class IP 65.
The computing circuit for the sensor types is located in the FA1.
Cabling from the sensor to the FA1 is 5-pole, static-screened with the sensor housing's poten-
tial (operating earth connection), a sixth cable is for measuring the flame signal during com-
missioning.
WARNING!
If the FA1 is used with an integral flame monitor, terminal 53 may not be connected to any oth-
er components
The optical flame sensors are supplied together with a connecting cable of ca. 2 m length. The
line between the sensor and the flame monitoring unit may be extended up to a distance of
500 m. For implementing an on-site extension we recommend a separate screened, five-wire
extension cable that can be connected to the sensor cable via an FG 24 (with ex-applications)
or FG 21 connector box, e.g.
cable type: LiYCY (blue, red, green, yellow, white) 5 x 1 x 0.5 mm2 (AWG 20)
50
11 Appendix
WARNING!
If the option "integral flame monitoring" is deactivated subsequently in the FA1 (e.g. an exter-
nal flame monitoring should be used), up to base version 4.0 the automatic flame guard plug-
in card has to be removed from the FA1, from base version 5.0 on the bridge 450 (beside the
96-pole plug) has to be switched.
The cable's screening may not be used as a low-frequency carrying operational link. The sen-
sors should be so mounted at the inspection aperture, that the burner's flame is properly vis-
ible across the entire combustion facility's "operating range”. For selective monitoring, the
inspection aperture should be so placed that the sensor covers the monitored flame's root
(near the burner's mouth). Attention should be paid to the fact that with extended tube collars
the part of the flame, which is covered by the sensor, becomes restricted. If necessary, the
inspection aperture should be sealed with a suitable protective glass sheet.
How to switch the display to flame intensity:
Press key F1 RESET.
Press key 15 twice.
Press key 15 again  back to the display of the fuel/air ratio control.
WARNING!
Control of the flame’s fault shut-down:
Emulate a simulation of a flame blow-off or the laps of the flame.
To this end, the fuel supply to the burner monitored by the flame sensor should be shut off.
Check that the safety interlock closing signal is triggered during the period tvAus < 1s after the
flame is extinguished. The FA1 displays the error code 004.
How to switch the display to flame intensity at the customer interface:
Press the selection key as long as the display shows the flame intensity.
WARNING!
Control of the flame’s fault shut-down:
Emulate a simulation of a flame blow-off or the laps of the flame.
To this end, the fuel supply to the burner monitored by the flame sensor should be shut off.
Check that the safety interlock closing signal is triggered during the period tvAus < 1 s, after
the flame is extinguished. The FA1 displays the error code 004.
11.3 Avoiding EMC Effects
The proper installation normally prevents from the EMC-adverse effects. In exceptional cases
it may be necessary by not traceable and /or not removable sources of interference to find an
adequate grounding point for the shielding.
1 In exceptional cases it is possible, that through the protected earth an interference level is
injected into the shielding. Unmotivated fault shut-downs (especially with low wanted sig-
nal) or temporary extraneous light may occur. In this cases the following may help beside
the fault clearance of the protected earth.
– a disconnection of the flame sensor shielding from the protective earth terminal at the
FA1 and the connection with the GND of the flame sensor (terminals 22 or 44)
51
11 Appendix
– In rarely cases the shielding may be disconnected like described in section a) and the
sensor housing may be grounded at the burner plate.
2 Adverse effects through coupling into the laid cable may be eliminated normally only with
the correct laying and in some cases with an adequate grounding point.
3 Adverse effects straight to the flame sensor may be suppressed with the reduction of the
sensitivity when there is a sufficient flame signal.

This fault is triggered by the watchdog processor, when these do not match with the
burner sequencer’s behaviour of the main processor.
Possible cause:
The HP activates the maintenance mode without any permission
The HP changes into a mixed operation without any permission
If the fault occurs once, it may be caused by EMC interference.
If the fault occurs often, the processor pc board is defective.
The monitoring processor has not detected a signal change at the "Air pressure
monitor" input. This can occur if the "Air pressure monitor" input is present at
BURNER START and is only briefly deactivated. This fault occurs frequently when
the fan is started by an external control system.
ETAMATIC:
Before A4a4002: the "Air pressure monitor" input appears during the TRIAC self-
test before the fan output is actuated by ETAMATIC!
This fault occurs when the "Burner On" and "Pre-venting" signals occur in the wrong
order or too quickly in sequence during the postpurge time in the case of devices
without a burner sequencer (VMS / ETAMATIC V).
No fault occurs if the devices switches to the "Ready" (BE) mode downstream of the
"Burner On" input before the "Pre-venting" signal is sent.
A fault occurred during the assumption of the curve in the EEPROM.
 Check the curve. Re-enter if required. This fault is possible only in connection
with the programming unit!

11.6 Tips and Tricks
Oil pressure does not build up in time.

Extending the transformer pre-energise time (P 782) starts the pump sooner.
11.6.1 Set Pilot Burner
Setting the "Service mode" parameter (P 787) causes the FA1 operating program to run only
up to the stabilisation time. But up to 5 successive starts can be attempted without pre-purge
and without valve leakage test. After setting the pilot burner, set parameter back to 0
NOTICE
Resetting a fault with a total reset clears the internal counter for the service mode. The next
start-up, pre-purge again.
11.6.2 Checking the Safety Times
If it is required to measure the installation's safety times at a later time (e.g. as part of an in-
stallation's acceptance tests). Do not disconnect the magnetic valves before start-up. This is
monitored by the FA1's self-testing circuit, and results in emergency shut-down.
Disconnect the ignition position's acknowledgement function (term. 46). Start-up and wait until
the ignition position is reached. On the self-test's completion (ca. 5 sec), the magnetic valve
can be disconnected. Reconnect the ignition position acknowledgement function.
The installation starts up.

Footnote to the Process Sequence Chart FA1

(1) Flame intensity to adjust the flame sensor (not connected during operation)
Here you can measure the flame intensity to adjust the flame sensor.
You can also determine the flame frequency with a multimeter which can determine the frequency with an AC meas-
urement
Because there is a fluctuation in the flame frequency, this is only a rough estimate for the frequency range (Not con-
nect during the operation!).
(2) Module 2 (optional):
Input for PT100 temperature sensor for the option "Control by atmospheric conditions". Sensor cable shielded sepa-
rately on PE or terminal 44.
Alternatively, there is the option (2. correction input current). With this, a current signal of 0/4 ... 20 mA can be used for
correction. Terminal 39- and terminal 40+ (for ETAMATIC S with speed feedback, only 4 ... 20 mA can be set).
(3) Alternatively you may connect the ground to terminal 44 instead of terminal 22.
(4) Burner firing rate controller actual value of int. firing rate
Steam pressure: 0/4-20 mA terminal 3/4/5 (terminal 20/21 connected)
External firing rate input: 0/4-20 mA terminal 3/4/5 (terminal 19/21 connected)
(5) For connection of other LAMTEC devices, e.g. O2 measurement with LAMTEC SYSTEM BUS
(6) For connection of an external control system - for visualisation or laptop
(7) If the recirculation signal is missing during operation, the recirculation channel remains closed or moves to the closed
** position (only valid for ETAMATIC, the internal recirculation signal is always in state 1 at ETAMATIC OEM).
If parameter 427 (VODelR) contains "0" , the recirculation channel remains closed during the pre-purge period.
Alternatively you may use terminal 54 as ignition flame input. In this case you must set P 788 to value 1.
(8) Terminals 1 and 2 at ETAMATIC
*** Extra cost option:
This is a monitor output where different values can be issued (0/4 ... 20 mA) for example: Setpoint of the individual
channels, actual value of the individual channels, actual value of the internal firing rate (chargeable option)
The ETAMATIC S has no monitor output, because the setpoint of channel 1 is preset by terminals 1 and 2.
The output (e.g. internal firing rate) is adjusted via optional LSB module’s.

Fig. 11-19 Internal connecting diagram of the control outputs

Always connect the attached firing rates (valves etc.) to the FA1 (even when the burner is off).
If it is not possible to not ensure this, use an RC combination (ca. 0,15 μF, ca. 220 ) between
the output terminal and neutral to let the testing current flow.
WARNING!
Connect the valves directly to the terminal.
The activating current of the firing rate must be higher than 9 mA.

11.15 Feedback at Three-Point-Step Outputs
11.15.1 Connect with Positive Locking
Since the FA1, in the case of three-point step channels, adjusts the damper until the actual
value is equal to the setpoint value, the feedback potentiometer must always reliably corre-
spond to the damper position.
The damper motor potentiometer connections must be positive interlock connections, i.e. not
able to rotate.
In addition you must use potentiometers with high quality standards (see next page). If one of
these two points is not given, you must use two independent potentiometers (not dual-operat-
ed potentiometers) per channel for the feedback.
The motor damper connection must always be a positive interlock.
WARNING!
The connection has to be designed in that way that the maximum torque of the motor could
not break the connection under any condition.
Fig. 11-22 Example of positive potentiometer connection
11.15.2 Fail-Safe Feedback
In the case of single-channel feedback of TPS outputs, only authorised potentiometers may
be used. These must be switched directly.
11.15.3 Examples of Potentiometers and Motors
Example of potentiometers:
The following potentiometers are authorised for use as solo feedback in the case of
FA1, on condition that they are positively connected to the damper:

11.16 Replacing the Device and Components
11.16.1 Replacing a Burner Control FA1
WARNING!
For replacing a burner control unit you have to take special measures. If you ignore this in-
structions it may cause in dangerous situation or malfunction.
How to upload the data in the new device:

1 You have to ensure, that the hardware configuration of the connected device corresponds
with the configuration of the device, which provides the backup copy. Otherwise it may re-
sult in malfunction. Read the information on the configuration label to check this:
– ID number
– configuration number
– additional notes (i.e. r.p.m. range of the r.p.m. feedback)
2 Make sure that you have selected the protected dataset, which belongs to the actual in-
stallation.
3 After you have uploaded the protected dataset activate the new settings with the interrup-
tion of the power supply and the restarting the new FA1.
4 All device parameters are set in the uploaded dataset. It is important to check all safety
relevant parameters before you put the device into operation on-site.
NOTICE
To verify the actual data, download them from the device and compare them with the protect-
ed dataset.
5 Finally download the actual dataset from the device and send it to support@lamtec.de.
11.16.2 How to Replace a Servo Motor
If you replace a motor without pre-calibration it is necessary to check the burner adjustment
after the change, because the potentiometer value and the position of the switches may differ
a little bit. This may lead to an other position of the damper.
NOTICE
Therefore you must prove the burner adjustment again in all firing rate positions and all oper-
ation modes. If necessary adapt the curves in the FA1.
11.16.3 How to Replace a Potentiometer
NOTICE
Keep switches in the same position.
96
11 Appendix
1 Note actual feedback value at lowest position before changing the potentiometer.
2 Remove old potentiometer.
3 Insert new potentiometer and adjust it so that actual value feedback at lowest position is
the same like noted before.
4 Fix potentiometer in according to the instruction of the motor manufacturer.
5 Verify burner adjustments and change if necessary
NOTICE
Since the normally used potentiometers can have different values, it is possible that the damp-
er has another position than before. Therefore you must prove the burner adjustment n again
after a potentiometer change, at all firing rate points and in all operation modes.

11.18 Wiring Notes
11.18.1 Shields Connection
All cables from and to the FA1 must be shielded (with the exception of the 230 V cable). Con-
nect the shielding to PE by the shortest possible route.
Right:
shielding terminal
connection terminal
Wrong:
connection terminal
shielding terminal
11.18.2 PE Busbar
Two rails are fitted to the left and right side of the terminal strips and parallel to them on the
unit's rear side. Connect all shieldings to these rails. Also connect the PE to this point from
the outside.
11.18.3 Control Cabinet Wiring
The low-voltage cables from and to the FA1 should not run in parallel to the power electronics'
in and out conductors in one cable duct.
Frequency converter cables and switches/contacts carrying high inductive or capacitive firing
rates are particularly critical. Therefore, avoid routing parallel to the drive cables of solenoid
valves, ignition transformers, servo motors and similar devices.
Although this device exceeds all relevant EMC standards in some respects, suitable wiring is
essential to ensure that the entire system operates smoothly in all conditions.
