Working inlet pressure
More infoHide infoMinimum at the boiler inlet with the boiler firing (Frame 31). The inlet pressure test point is on the gas valve on the 30, 40, 60, 80 and 150, and on the inlet gas manifold on the 100 and 120 (Frame 58). Table 2 gives the gas supply as G20 20 mbar and G31 37 mbar. The fault finding charts (MI pp. 52–53) ask whether more than 18 mbar is available at the boiler, which doesn’t match the 17.5 mbar minimum.
