Observation:
Note the operating pressure indicated on the pressure switch.
Allow the boiler to begin it's ignition sequence.
Approximately 2 seconds after the fan starts
to run increase the pressure via the syringe
to that indicated on the pressure switch.
Can sparking now be observed
between the ignition electrodes?
Note:
100Pa (Pascals) = 1millibar
If sparking does not occur it is permissible to increase the pressure by up to 50%
