Riello
Riello manufactures a comprehensive range of gas, oil and dual fuel burners for residential, commercial and industrial applications, for single stage, two stage and modulating operation. Riello also manufacture gas boosters for applications where the mains gas pressure available needs to be increased.
Riello Burners Ltd is the UK distributor of Riello burners and gas boosters, providing design and technical support, product training and ongoing service & maintenance.
Riello has launched new flame sensors for use with all of its domestic oil-fired burners that are covered by EU Directive 2011/65/EU (Restriction of the Use of Certain Hazardous Substances in Electronic and Electrical Equipment), which comes into force in July 2019.
As a result, Riello RDB, G20, 40 and Gulliver models now require new cadmium-free photocells within the flame sensors if replacement is required. For RDB models the correct replacement depends on whether an analogue or digital control box is in use.
EU Directive 2011/65/EU is designed to prevent certain hazardous substances from entering the production process, resulting in the introduction of these new cadmium-free technologies within the flame sensor.
The photocell has an important function in an oil boiler detecting whether the burner has fired and is maintaining a stable flame.
If a photocell is not functioning correctly the burner may cycle on and off or shutdown randomly.
