'Dennis Wynes' wrote in news:b1rdjp$nkc$:Hm, that did something but not any good. It did allow the flame to startbut it just cut out again very quickly and a bit of smoke coming out ofthe unit, looks like some part of the fan unit or something that lookslike one has gone bad.Any more comments/ideas?- Posted via Newsfeed.Com - Uncensored Usenet News -The #1 Newsgroup Service in the World!-= Over 100,000 Newsgroups - Unlimited Fast Downloads - 19 Servers =-Dennis Wynes06.02.03 1:40.
I know a picture is worth a thousand words but here's the fault finding bitfrom my Camray 2, hope it helps!D - FAULT-FINDINGD/1. Immediately the burner stops for any abnormal reason, the red lamp (2)on the burner casing will light, unless there has been a failure in theelectric power supply to the burner, due to the burning out of either a fuseor the red lamp.D/2. When the red lamp is shining, the controls of the burner are at“lock-out”, and can remain so without any danger.
The burner can only berestarted manually by pressing the re-set button (2) in which the red lampis incorporated.D/3. Having waited for at least 5 minutes with the burner at “lock-out”, theuser should firmly press the re-set button(2) and then pay careful attentionto what happens. He should try to single out which of the faults listedbelow is present.D/4. The burner starts, flame is established within the boiler and theburner does not return to “lock-out”: Obviously the cause of failure wasonly temporary, such as a sudden change in voltage, and no further action isrequired.D/5. The burner starts, flame is established within the boiler, but theburner returns to “lock—out”:— polish the front surface of the photo cell (1) with a dry cloth; — makesure that the boiler tubes or flue ways are not blocked by soot, and arrangefor them to be cleaned, should this be the case;— repeat the action shown at D/3.D/6. The burner starts, but no flame is established within the boiler, andthe burner returns to “lock-out”: Make sure that atomized oil is beingdelivered by the nozzle (6)Should no fuel be sprayed out:.
Turn off the main switch; — take off thelocking nut (3), move the burner backwards on its hinge (5) away from thefrontplate, if there is no hinge remove the burner from the boiler and,after the maintenance operations, remount it onto the boiler in the wayillustrated on figure 1. — (undo the way illustrated on figure 1) — undo thenozzle (6) from its holder, using a nozzle spanner (size 16box-spanner); —unscrew the nozzle filter(8); — take out the inner part (7)of the nozzle; — carefully wash all parts of the nozzle with Gas Oil; —never use anything metallic for cleaning the nozzle, as it could bedamaged; — put the burner back into position and tighten the flangenut(3); —turn on the main switch; — repeat the ac tion shown at D/3.D/7. RaymondI have a spare (working) Reillo MEC 3GB burner + manual if you want it. Hasnewish motor, pump, controller. Saved it when I replaced my old Camray thissummer. Dvdfab 11.0 3.1 key.
Going free to a good home - I'm in Suffolk. Will post if anyone paysshipping.I've plenty of experience fixing boulter (Reillo) burners!Is the fan motor turning freely?
Even if the burner is not lighting the motorwill usually turn for a short period. They can seize after a number of yearsservice and require replacement. Symptoms - noisy when running or seized.Oil pump - this won't usually cause the burner to fail but look out for telltalesigns of oil leakage from around the pump. Its usually mounted on the oppositesend of the motor to the fan. Oil leakage will also remove lubricant from themotor bearings causing these to fail.HT transformer. Try and check if you are getting a spark accross the electrodeswhen the burner is starting up.
If not the transformer, control box, HTlead/electrodes may be faulty.Nozzle. These can get clogged or dirty giving a poor spray pattern. Clean thenozzle and or replace if suspect.Control box. These can fail or go out of adjustment giving starting problems.Photoresistor. As mentioned by the previous poster these can get dirty or fail.Symptoms will be that a flame is established for a short time followed by burnerlock out.Raymond06.02.03 8:16.
