Right - I'll say this one more time, so those of you who haven't read this properly can see it. The pump comes pre set to the correct pressure, and no other changes were made to the settings that were there pre pump replacement. The 'professionals' that installed the boiler got the settings...

Interesting point to note, the professional tradesmen that installed it, set it wrong. The pump pressure was nearly 14 bar, the air damper was set at 8.9 and CO2 readings were off the scale when I had it independently checked. I then had it all set to the correct settings by a competent...

Thanks for your concern. Pump and boiler tested. Pump pressure 9.7 bar, CO2 11.8, air damper set to 5.3. So, not so foolish, and given that none of the settings had changed since it was last checked, just a new pump installed. So, maybe I'll take your advice and sail to New York and write...

Well, after some further attempts, and hearing the flame go out, I took the air intake pipe off at the burner, and fired it up. When it locked out, a large plume of exhaust smoke came out from the air intake. Is this likely to be that the flue is blocked? I've been outside and taken the...

Pump pressure is 9.8bar, air damper is set to 5.3 (as per Riello spec) and the readings are as they were when the original pump was on, so nothing has changed, just seems that the pump gets the oil up to the burner, ignites then the flame goes out and the burner locks out. The photocell is...

Thanks - The new pump was set at exactly the same pressure setting as the one that was removed, photocell removed, cleaned and put back, and no other settings have been changed...?

Hi all - I have a Trianco Contractor HE110 internal combi, and today had to fit a new oil pump, Danfoss BFP 11R3 as the original had seized. I can get the boiler to fire, but looking through the inspection hole, the flame goes out after 1-3 seconds and the boiler locks out. I've taken the...

Hi - do you know if the capacitor can be replaced on it's own? Thanks.

Hi Tony - there is 223/226V to the pump, and I've taken the screw plug out of the front, there was a pphutt of air and water, then a small trickle of water. The impeller seems to move freely, as it did when I took the whole pump off earlier this morning.... Update of much wierdness - to me...

Thanks for the reply - step back, here comes a dumb question..... How do I know if I have low system water level, and what happens if I overfill it, will it just blow out of the PRV? And - if I have an air lock how would I go about getting rid of it?

Hi everyone - we have a Trianco 110 HE Combi, two pipe setup, that has been working fine for about 6 weeks, then got low on oil, was refilled yesterday - and worked fine until last night. I reset the timings on the timer so that it wasn't running 24/7 which it has been since our first born...

Well - after my last set of adjustments, it's been running for a week, no lock outs, no WOOF when it starts, no smoke, no smells, and it's been on the timer for the second time, so on at 05:00, off at 10:00, on at 15:00 and off at 23:30. First time I tried this, it locked out when trying to...

Hi Stix - thanks for the quick reply. I've got it going again this morning, and just in time as it's freezing here. Looking over the info in this thread, and finding the info I needed, from Danfoss and Riello, to make the air adjustment and made an assumption for now on the oil pump pressure...

We have recently had a Trianco Contractor HE 110 installed, at a level higher than the tank, with the two pipe setup, a Tiger Loop etc. and after some early issues, it would run for approx. 48 hours with no problems, then lock out, get reset once or twice, then run for 48 hours, lock out....now...

nice and warm now my boiler is working
