The LMV5 burner control has a designed lifetime* of 250,000 burner startup cycles which, under normal operating conditions in heating mode, correspond to approx. 10years of usage (starting from the production date given on the type field).
This is based on the continuous tests specified in standards EN 298. A summary of the conditions has been published by the European Control Manufacturers Association . The designed lifetime is based on use of the LMV5 according to the manufacturer's Data Sheet and Basic Documentation. After reaching the designed lifetime in terms of the number of burner startup cycles, or the respective time of usage, the LMV5 is to be replaced by authorized personnel.
* The designed lifetime is not the warranty time specified in the Terms of Delivery.
