Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a method for operating a burner assembly comprising a burner () burning an air-fuel mixture. In a step of the method, a target value for an ionization current is specified. The burner () is operated in a first operating state at a first specified power level. The ionization current () is measured using an ionization electrode (). The measured ionization current () is compared with the predefined target value and a deviation is determined. When the deviation exceeds a predefined threshold value, the burner () is transitioned to a second operating state at a second power level. The second power level is higher than the first power level. The second power level is determined as a function of the deviation.
