The boiler snould assembled, tested, and the boiler controls installed before the burner is unpacked and serviced for installation. All electrical and oil lines should be run adjacent to the boiler-burner instal lation. It is important that the sen-iceman and installer have the following instruments available for proper testing, adjustments, and servicing the burner: CO2 Test Instrument Smoke Tester Draft Gauge (Inclined tube .0 to 1.0 inch) Oil Pressure Gauge Oil Vacuum Gauge Multi-Meter -- Flame Mirror The urners covered by this book have been specifically designed anH tested for ue boiler-burner units involved. At the rear of this manual are specific chans showing "Air Handling Data", "Burner Data", and various parts data. For oroper burner operation the dimensions shown should be strictly adhered to. Affi :~OR COMBUSTION It is necessary to have sufficient outside air for combustion to be supplied at all ; mes to the Boiler Room. A permanent opening or duct should be provided suet, that the boiler input will not exceed 5000 Btuh/square inch of free area. The air inlet opening should be located at a point where it cannot be covered with snov. or where it cannot be obstructed by any other means. Movable louvers should not be used. Never depend on an open door that can be closed for the air inlet, or rely on cracks under doors or around loose windows. 23702 W31SAS idld'OMi 'XNVi M0739 AINn*73nd W31SAS 3dld-OWU XNVJ. 3A09V ilNn*73nd />\oiaq papexisn]]! si Sordid pajsaSSTic *079 `S97TS adtd `umno-EA jsdoid joj ajnjtuajrx jinfi janj o; jajay `papaau uooaj 9jo suiajsXs 9dTd-o/k\L 's;inn pnj oSrns-o,v4 qiiM paqsnunj aas saan ngnv W3ISA!- I3H3 23703 PREPARATION OF BURNER FOR INSTALLATION ON BOILER 1. Insert proper nozzle. (See "Nozzle Data" la charts of this manual.) 2. Check nozzle settings as shown la this manual. 3. Check electrode settings as shown la this maaoal. 4. Be sure all parts and settings agree with those shown in this manual. 5. Set drawer assembly to middle position on side of housing.. 6. Burner Is now ready for Installation an boiler mounting pints. ELECTRICAL POWER CONNECTION Check burner, this manual, and wiring diagrams for tbs proper power supply to be connected to burner and controls. Note that all boners are factory wired, eliminating field wiring as much as possible. 8TART -UP AND FINAL ADJUSTMENTS 1. Make sure that flue damper tz PFA-3 boiler is in full open poattlcn. (To be adjusted later If required.) 2. CAUTION Make sure there is water in the boiler and that there is oil in the oil line to prevent burn-out of Fuel Unit. 3. Connect oil lines to burner. 4. Connect electrical power wiring to burner and boiler controls. S. Set air adjustments on burner to half open position. (These adjustments are temporary and will probably have to be changed to achieve proper smoke sad COg readings. 6. Turn on power to burner. 7. Set limit and operating controls to deslfwd settings. Bursar should start. 8. Check smote characteristics or less. , Adjust sir to get No. 2 smoke 9. Check oil pressure. Should be 100 P.8.L / -4 - 23704 10. 'heck CO2 reading (should be 12% t 1%) 11.

Tliaae burners are equipped with 3450 r.p.m. motors and pumps, one -stage firing, and with flame retention. All of '-be models can be fired with draft or with pressure in the firebox. (See boiler installation manual for maximum allowable pressure In the firebox.) A fori d draft burner supplies all the air for combustion and can be fired in a boiler with natural draft, induced draft or with no draft. Press ire firing is a term used when there is pressure in the firebox during the buroe operation. The pressure is produced by the resistance through the boiler or furnace and the combustion air supplied by the burner, AIR FOR COMBUSTION If lacl of combustion air is suspected, close the door to the boiler or furnace room and operate the burner for at least 30 minutes. If the flame appears to become gassy and tends to snuff out, insufficient combustion air is the cause and corrective measures must be taken to provide the proper amount of air. BLOV ER WHEELS (FANS) - VIBRATION If und :e vibration is detected in the burner, it could be caused by the blower wheel being >ut of balance. Check to determine if any foreign matter has been drawn Into the bt i-ner and lodged in tbe blower wheel. If not, replace the blower wheel. Remove the m tor from the burner and run It without the blower wheel to determine if then is an} undue vibration. Replace the motor if die operation is not smooth. When installing a new blower wheel in the burner, it is very important that it be secured tightly to the motor shaft. -5 - 23705 The replacement blower wheel must be located on the motor shaft so that the set crews bear on the center of the flat on the 1/4 H. P. motors. Make sure thai the set screws on blower wheels are securely tightened. There should be adequate clearance on both sides of the blower wheel in the housing. The blower wheels used in the burners are dynamically balanced for operation at 3 150 r.p.m. and any replacement should be an exact duplicate of the original DRAFT The oumers are designed for firing against pressure in the firebox, but operate just as satisfactorily in a natural draft installation. It is important that the vent or chimney be located so as to be free of downdrafts. Forced draft burners can operate with back pressure in the boiler and flue pipe, but strong surges of down draft can cause the fire to become smoky and erratic. Aftr r a shut-down the heat in the combustion area could damage the burner if it is forced back through the burner by down-drafts. It may be necessary to increase the ieight of the vent or chimney above the building and in some instances install a dvtch cap or similar appliance to prevent downdrafts. FU1 L SYSTEM The Turners can be installed with a single line if no lift from the oil tank is invc wed. If a long single line is used, it should be large enough in diameter so t .at the vacuum reading on the fuel unit is no more than 10 inches. If the oil mk is below the level o; the burner, use a two-line system. If tv o or more burners are piped to a common suction line, each burner must have its 'wn check valve. If ti t pressure gauge on the fuel unit shows the 100 p.s.i. cannot be obtained, the fuel unit should be replaced. The quick cut-off pumps used should never be adji sted above 100 p. s. i. A p esaure gauge and a vacuum gauge should be used if a fuel unit problem is sus ected. If the pressure is excessive, such as 125# to 150#, check the flame basi at the flame retention cup. Excessive pressure may cause the flame to lift awa from the spinner. The pressure should be maintained at 100#. -6 - 23706 Rel r to the fuel unit manufacturers data for the proper vacuum for the ins' nation. If the vacuum reads higher than the calculated vacuum (see mai ifacturer's instructions) check for restrictions in the oil line, excessivi y long lines, closed tank valve, kinked copper tubing, plugged oil filter, fro :n oil line, undersized oil line, excessive oil lift or a restricting check or i -otvalve. If the vacuum reads low, look for air leaks in the suction line, val\ fittings or fuel unit. On a gravity flow installation, no vacuum will be sho n on the gauge except where there are restrictions caused by a closed val- , plugged oil filter, kinked, undersized, or excessively long suction line. All estrictions must be eliminated and undersized or excessively long lines rep iced with lines of a greater diameter so that the vacuum reading will be no moi than 10 inches. A s ging sound in the fuel unit may indicate air in the suction line. Excessively higi vacuum can also cause noise in the fuel unit. Air in the suction line can can delayed lighting. This condition will in time coat the photocell with carbon and afety shut-downs may result. If i1 s suspected that the oil is returning to the tank after shut-down, inspect for leal in the suction line and check valve. If the check valve is not seating properly and aere is a slight air leak in the 6uction line, the oil will flow back to the oil tanJ On the next start up of the burner, there will be a delay in the oil delivery whi the pump is lifting the oil from the tank. Repair any air leaks and replace the neck valve if necessary. IGk ;TO.\ PROBLEMS Har (rough) lighting can be caused by ignition problems. Check the transformer for ade iate spark. Check for a spark by momentarily short circuiting the transformer acr the terminals by use of a screwdriver with an insulated handle. A 3/4" lorn .park should be obtained. If there is no spark or if the spark was weak (less thaj L/2 inch), replace the transformer. Check the spark gap with the dimensions in r installation manual. Wit standard control systems the spark should appear immediately when the burner sta' s. If a delay is detected, check the power supply to the burner. When a can tian of this type is susj>ected, the best check is to have a voltage recorder con cted to the burner for a period of 48 hours. This will indicate any voltage dro during that period. Voltage drops are usually caused by undersized wiring or a It ; run from the burner to the source of power. If delayed ignition is not corrected, it c ild cause an explosion. -7 - 23707 Chi : the drawer assembly for possible high voltage leaks in the insulators. If b loubt, change the electrode assemblies. Check the electrode springs and pou ; for adequate cleararx e to the ground. Check for carbon on the electrode poii s. Check all dimensions on the drawer assembly according to the dimensions sho 1 in the manual and reset if necessary. If th cup is not correctly positioned in relation to the end cone hard lighting could occ . This is usually caused when the cup is positioned too far back inside the end one. To correct this ondition, loosen the screw that locks the drawer assembly in p ce and move the assembly forward in steps of 1/16 of an inch until the lighting is ooth. Be .re to tighten the set s- rew after making this adjustment and check the electrode spr gs from the electrode.-, to the transformer, making sure there is adequate cle. ance to a ground and t! ere is no possibility of a short circuit. If t' fire is clean with no s noke while in operation, but the heating unit continues to 1 ,ome coated with soot, check for short cycles on the burner. Short cycling wil, ventually cause hard 1 .ghting due to carbon on the spinner and nozzles. Under the.- conditions the limit ei-atrol on the heating unit should be set with a greater diffj- ential. INS UIMEN'TS In i -st forced draft units i is in.possible to view the flame satisfactorily so ins unents must be useu ; properly adjust the flame. Do t attempt to obtain a .ner percentage of CC>2 than a clean fire will give. Kei ng the beating suriac. A the. unit ciean is more important than securing a hig r percentage of CO.,. et the flame at no more than *2 on the Bacharach scale. NO LES Us< nlv the nozzles recommended for they are of the proper type, capacity and apt angle, and these noz: es should give the best performance in each burner and uni* combination under not ial conditions. Ho' 'er, because of the gr at variation in fuel oils in different localities, normal con `.ions do not always up, ly. Nozzles will not always deliver the gallons per hour or spray angle with whi t they are marked, and in some instances nozzles other tha hose furnisned as orii nal equipment could give better performance. -6- 23708 The i izzles used should give smooth lighting and be able to produce a CO2 readi g of 10.5 to 12.5 percent with no more than a #2 smoke. Do nc attempt to install the nozzle through the end cone. It is impossible to get a ight joint between the nozzle and the adapter unless two wrenches are used. Remove the drawer assembly from the burner and then remove the cup b fore installing the nozzle. -9 - 23709 BURNER adjustment settings Boiler Number Burner Model No. & Spec. No. "A" I. D.
