Hi everyone,
I'm having problem with a Smitsvonk made ignitor which is used for boiler operation. The type is 54PVD13/1600/400/V5E and the fuel used is natural gas. It is a new ignitor and was functioning well during the first start up. however it fails during subsequent start whereby there is no flame detected. I have physically taken out the ignitor and serviced it i.e. clean the nozzle and the filter, cleaned the spark plugs (there is 3 spark plugs). I have also tested the unit and there was spark produced, but once I put the unit back in service, it fails to produce flame. I have 6 units of same ignitors for this boiler and only this ignitor failed on second start. Appreciate advice from Control users on what else could be checked. Thank you.
