4.0Start-Up And Adjustment (cont’d.)

Set Air Pressure Drop

Measure the air pressure drop across the burner as shown in Figure 7.

 

 

 

Turn the disc on the blower air inlet until the air pressure drop is between 0.4"

 

w.c. minimum and 1.0" w.c. maximum. For a given input, lower air pressure

 

 

 

drops will produce a longer flame, and higher drops will produce a shorter flame.

 

Large Burners Only: Some models, such as the 640, 680, and 720 TAH burn-

 

ers, contain a butterfly valve in the check valve line as shown in Figure 8. On

 

these models, after setting the air flow as described in the previous paragraph,

 

measure the air pressure drop between the gas pressure tap and duct as shown

 

in Figure 7. Gas flow must be off. Adjust the butterfly valve to produce an air

 

 

 

pressure drop of 0.2" w.c.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Start Spark

Energize the ignition spark. Do not touch

all main gas valves. The burner should

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

light with a stable, blue low fire flame that extends evenly down the burner

 

 

 

length.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Drive the control valve to high fire and adjust the gas adjusting valve to produce

 

a pressure drop that corresponds to the desired high fire rate, as shown in Fig. 1.

 

When setting high fire, be sure the flame does not impinge on anything down-

 

stream of the burner. To shorten the flame length for a given gas input, increase

 

the air pressure drop as described above.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Check All Settings

Return the burner to low fire and check to be sure that the burner remains lit with

 

a stable flame that extends down the burner length. Cycle the burner between

 

low and high fire several times, checking pressure drops and flame lengths.

 

 

5.0Routine Maintenance

Motor Lubrication

Oil the blower motor according to the manufacturer’s instructions as printed on

 

the motor label.

Ignition Plug/Flame Rod

Ignition plugs and flame rods wear out over long periods of normal burner opera-

 

tion. Eclipse recommends that the user keep at least one of each in stock at all

 

times to prevent nuisance shutdowns.
