15 Gas conversion adjustments
In order to operate with a gas other than that provided from the
factory, it is necessary to make some adjustments to the gas
valve.
This conversion should only be carried out by a competent person
approved at the time by the Health and Safety Executive.
• During the conversion to Propane, use of a suitable flue gas
analyser is necessary.
The person carrying out a combustion measurement should have
been assessed as competent in the use of a flue gas analyser and
the interpretation of the results.
The flue gas analyser used should be one meeting the
requirements of BS7927 or BS-EN50379-3 and be calibrated in
accordance with the analyser manufacturers’ requirements.
Competence can be demonstrated by satisfactory completion
of the CPA1 ACS assessment, which covers the use of electronic
portable combustion gas analysers in accordance with BS 7967,
parts 1 to 4.
