TC 1, TC 2
The tightness control TC checks the fail-safe function
of both valves before each start-up or after each shut-
down of a system with two safety valves.
The aim is to identify an inadmissible leak on one of the
gas valves and to prevent burner start. The other gas
valve continues working properly and takes over the
safe shut-off of the gas supply.
It is used in industrial thermoprocessing equipment, on
boilers and on forced draught burners.

tion with a visual indicator). Pre-purge of the combus-
tion chamber can be dispensed with under certain
conditions in accordance with EN 746-2, if a tightness
