Warning notes
To avoid injury to persons, damage to property or the environment, the following
warning notes must be observed!
Do not open, interfere with or modify the unit!

All activities (mounting, installation and service work, etc.) must be performed by
qualified staff
Before making any wiring changes in the connection area, completely isolate the
plant from mains supply (all-polar disconnection). Ensure that the plant cannot be
inadvertently switched on again and that it is indeed dead. If not observed, there is
a risk of electric shock hazard
Ensure protection against electric shock hazard by providing adequate protection
for the burner controls connection terminals
Each time work has been carried out (mounting, installation, service work, etc.),
check to ensure that wiring is in an orderly state and make the safety checks as
described in Commissioning notes
Press the lockout reset button only manually (apply a force of no more than 10 N),
without using any tools or pointed objects
Do not press the lockout reset button on the unit or the remote lockout reset button
(input 21)for more than 10 seconds since this damages the lockout relay in the unit
Fall or shock can adversely affect the safety functions. Such units must not be put
into operation, even if they do not exhibit any damage
For safety reasons self-test of the flame supervision circuit, etc. at least one
controlled shutdown must take place every 24 hours
In the case of flame supervision with UV detectors QRA..., it should be noted that
sources of radiation such as halogen lamps, welding equipment, special lamps,
ignition sparks, as well as X-rays and gamma radiation, can produce erroneous
flame signals

Mounting notes

Ensure that the relevant national safety regulations are complied with
Connect the earthing lug inside the terminal base to burner ground using a screw
with a lockwasher
An ignited UV tube is a source of UV radiation! In case of flame supervision by
means of flame detectors, the detectors must be placed such that there is no
direct visual contact between them. If this is not observed, there is a risk of loss
of safety functions

Installation notes

Always run the high-voltage ignition cables separately while observing the greatest
possible distance to the unit and to other cables
Do not mix up live and neutral conductors
Install switches, fuses and grounding in accordance with local regulations
Do not exceed the maximum permissible current rating of the connection terminals
The insulation of internal wiring which is subjected to the mains voltage must be
able to withstand the electrical loads occurring during proper use

Application notes

For use in applications in dual-fuel burners or oil burners, the oil supply must be
equipped with two shutoff valves connected in series.
Observe the following:
EN 298:2012, Section 7.101.3.3 Prepurge time for oil burner control systems and the
corresponding application standards.

Electrical connection of flame detectors

It is important to achieve practically disturbance- and loss-free signal transmission:
Never run the detector cable together with other cables
Line capacitance reduces the magnitude of the flame signal
Use a separate cable
Observe the maximum permissible detector cable lengths (refer to Technical data)
2 UV detectors QRA... can be connected in parallel (observe the warning note)
In connection with the QRA..., earthing of terminal 22 is mandatory
The ionization probe is not protected against electric shock hazard
Locate the ignition electrode and the ionization probe so that the ignition spark
cannot arc over to the ionization probe (risk of electrical overloads) and that the
ignition sparks cannot adversely affect the supervision of ionization
Supervision with both ionization probe and UV detector QRA... is possible, but for
safety reasons with the exception of the second safety time t9 only 1 flame
detector may be active at a time. At the end of the second safety time, 1 of the
detectors must be inactive, however, that is, the detected flame must have
extinguished, e.g. by switching off the ignition valve via terminal 17

Air pressure supervision

If the air pressure is not monitored with air pressure switch LP, terminal 4 must be connected to terminal 12, and terminal 6
to terminal 14. Terminal 13 is not used.
Control contacts of the other devices in the burner installation if series-connected are to be connected as follows:
- To terminal 4 or 5 contacts which must be closed from startup to controlled shutdown otherwise no start or shutdown
- To terminal 12 contacts which must only be closed on startup otherwise no start
- To terminal 14 contacts which must be closed at the beginning of the preignition time at the latest, and which must stay
closed until controlled shutdown occurs

Remote reset
When remote reset button EK2 is connected between terminal 21 and
- terminal 3, only remote reset is possible
- terminal 1, both remote emergency shutdown and remote reset are possible

For use in oil applications, the oil supply must be equipped with two shutoff valves connected in
series.
Observe the following:
EN 298:2012, Section 7.101.3.3 Prepurge time for oil burner control systems and the corresponding
application standards.

Engineering notes (contd)

Connection of fuel valves with direct spark flame burners. With 2-stage burners, BV2 is connected in place of BV3
Connection of fuel valves with interrupted pilot burners
Direct connection of a fuel valve to terminal 20 is only permitted
in plants with a main shutoff valve on the mains side (safety shutoff valve), which is controlled by terminal 18 or 19, and
if 2-stage valves are used, provided they fully close when the first stage, controlled by terminal 18 or 19, is switched off

For additional examples of air damper control, refer to Connection examples. In the case of actuators with no end switch
z for the fully CLOSED position of the air damper, terminal 11 must be connected to terminal 10 otherwise no burner
start.

Simultaneous use of ionization and UV supervision is possible

Function (cont'd)
General

The following features enable the LFL1... to offer a high level of additional safety:
Detector and extraneous light test are resumed immediately on completion of the
afterburn time t13. Fuel valves that are not closed, or not fully closed,
immediately initiate lockout on completion of the afterburn time t13. The test will
only be terminated when the prepurge time t1 of the next startup sequence has
elapsed.
The proper functioning of the flame supervision circuit is automatically checked
during each startup phase of the burner.
During the postpurge time t6, the control contacts for the release of fuel are
checked to ensure they have not welded.
The built-in unit fuse protects the control contacts against overloads.

Control of the burner

Flame supervision

Preconditions for
startup

Burner operation with or without postpurging

Fan motors with a current draw of up to 4 A can be connected directly starting
current max. 20 A (max. 20 ms)
Separate control outputs for one pilot valve, which will be shut on completion of the
second safety time
Separate control outputs for the actuators positioning directions OPEN,
CLOSE and MIN
Checked air damper control to ensure prepurging with the nominal amount of air
Checked positions:
- CLOSED or MIN on startup low-fire position
- OPEN at the start of prepurging
- MIN on completion of prepurging
If the actuator does not drive the air damper to the required position, the burner
startup sequence will be stopped
2 control outputs for the release of the second and third output stage, or load control
When load control is enabled, the control outputs for the actuator will galvanically
be separated from the units control section
Connection facilities for
- remote lockout warning device
- remote reset
- remote emergency shutdown
With burner controls of the 01 series and direct spark flame burners, the safety time
can be increased from 2.5 to 5 seconds by changing the circuitry (refer to
Connection examples), provided the longer safety time conforms to local safety
regulations
With the ionization probe, in networks with earthed or nonearthed neutral
conductor. For this kind of supervision, the flame supervision circuit is designed
such that possible disturbances of the ionization current due to the ignition spark
normally have no impact on the establishment of the flame signal. A short-circuit
between ionization probe and burner ground causes loss of the flame signal
With UV detector QRA... (gas and oil burners)
Simultaneous use of ionization probe and UV detector QRA... (e.g. with interrupted
pilot burners or gas-electrically ignited oil burners)
If, on startup, the required input signals are not present, the burner control
interrupts the startup sequence at the points marked by symbols and initiates
lockout where required by safety regulations. The symbols used in this Data Sheet
correspond to those on the burner controls lockout indicator.

Startup sequence
A

Start command delivered by R

R closes the start control loop between terminals 4 and 5
The sequence switch starts running
- Only prepurging, power is immediately fed to the fan motor connected to terminal 6
- Pre- and postpurging; on completion of t7, power is fed to the fan motor or flue gas fan connected
to terminal 7
On completion of t16, the control command to open the air damper is delivered via terminal 9
No power is fed to terminal 8 during the positioning time
The sequence switch continues its travel only after the air damper has fully opened

t1

Prepurge time with air damper fully open

During t1, the correct functioning of the flame supervision circuit is tested
If test is not successful, the burner control will initiate lockout
Shortly after the start of t1, the air pressure switch must change over from terminal 13 to terminal 14.
Otherwise lockout
Start of air pressure check
At the same time, terminal 14 must be live since the ignition transformer will be powered and the fuel
released via this current path.
On completion of the prepurge time, the burner control will drive the air damper to the low-fire position via
terminal 10, which is determined by the changeover point of auxiliary switch m. During the positioning
time, the sequence switch stops again. A short time later, the motor of the sequence switch will be switched
to the control section of the burner control. This means that, from now on, positioning signals delivered to
terminal 8 have no impact on the burners further startup sequence (and on subsequent burner operation):

t5

Interval
On completion of t5, power is fed to terminal 20; at the same time, control outputs 9...11 and input 8
are galvanically separated from the units control section
The LFL1... is now protected against return voltages from the power control loop
The startup sequence of the LFL1 ends with the release of LR at terminal 20
After a number of idle steps (steps with no change of the contact position), the sequence switch
switches itself off

B-C

Burner operation
During burner operation, LR drives the air damper to the high-fire or low-fire position, depending on
the demand for heat
Release of high-fire is enabled by auxiliary switch v in the actuator

On controlled shutdown, the BV... will immediately be closed. At the same time, the sequence switch
starts and programs t6

During burner off periods, the flame supervision circuit is live. A faulty flame signal of a few seconds will
initiate lockout.
Short ignition pulses of the UV tube, caused for instance by cosmic radiation, do not lead to lockout.

Times TSA, t3 and t4 only exist with burner controls of the 01 series.

Control sequence under fault conditions and lockout indication

In case of any faults, the fuel supply is always interrupted immediately. In the event of
any kind of fault, the sequence switch will stop and, with it, the lockout indicator.
The symbol above the indicators reading mark gives the type of fault:

No start

One of the contacts is not closed (also refer to Preconditions for burner startup)
Extraneous light
Lockout during or after completion of the control sequence.
Examples:
Flames that have not extinguished
Leaking fuel valves
Defect in the flame supervision circuit

Startup
interruption

Terminal 8 has not received the OPEN signal from end switch a
Terminals 6, 7 and 14 remain live until the fault has been corrected

Lockout

No indication of air pressure at the beginning of the air pressure check

Loss of air pressure after the air pressure check

Lockout

Defect in the flame supervision circuit

>

Startup
interruption

Terminal 8 has not received the positioning signal from auxiliary switch m for the
low-fire position
Terminals 6, 7 and 14 remain live until the fault has been corrected

Lockout

No flame signal on completion of safety time TSA

Lockout

No flame signal on completion of the second safety time (flame signal of main flame
with interrupted pilot burners)

Lockout

Loss of flame signal during operation

After the reset, the burner control sequence switch first returns to the start position and
then initiates a burner restart. If lockout occurs any other moment in time between start
and preignition not indicated by a symbol, the usual cause is a premature flame signal,
that is, a faulty flame signal, caused for instance by a self-igniting UV tube.
