Owner’s Responsibility:
Follow These
Instructions Exactly
Failure to follow these instructions,
misuse, or incorrect adjustment of
the burner could lead to equipment
malfunction and result in asphyxiation, explosion or fi re.
Contact a professional, qualifi ed service agency for the
installation, adjustment and service of your oil burning
system. Thereafter, have your equipment adjusted and
inspected at least annually to ensure reliable operation.
This work requires technical training, trade experience,
licensing or certifi cation in some states and the proper
use of special combustion test instruments.
Please carefully read and comply with the following
instructions:
y
Never store or use gasoline or other fl ammable liquids
or vapors near this burner or appliance.
y
Never attempt to burn garbage or refuse in this appliance.
y
Never attempt to light the burner by throwing burning
material into the appliance.
y
Never attempt to burn any fuel not specifi ed and ap-
proved for use in this burner.
y
Never restrict the air inlet openings to the burner or the
combustion air ventilation openings in the room.
Professional Installer/Service Agency
Responsibility:
Follow These
Instructions Exactly
Failure to follow these instructions
could lead to equipment malfunction and result in asphyxiation,
explosion or fi re.
Please read all instructions before proceeding. Follow
y
all instructions completely.
This equipment must be installed, adjusted and started
y
by a qualifi ed service agency that is experienced with
all applicable codes and ordinances and responsible for
the installation and commission of the equipment.
The installation must comply with all local codes and
y
ordinances having jurisdiction and the latest editions of
the NFPA 31 and CSA-B139 & B140 in Canada.
NOTICE
50 Hz motors — The burner ratings, air settings and nozzle
ratings are based on standard 60 hz motors (at 3450 rpm). Derate
all ratings 20% when using 50 hz motors. Consult factory for
specifi c application data.
NOTICE
High altitude installations — Accepted industry practice
requires no derate of burner capacity up to 2,000 feet above
sea level. For altitudes higher than 2,000 feet, derate burner
capacity 2% for each 1000 feet above sea level.
Pre-installation checklist
Combustion air supply
Adequate Combustion
and Ventilation Air
Supply Required
Failure to provide adequate air supply could se-
riously affect the burner performance and result
in damage to the equipment, asphyxiation, explosion or fi re hazards.
The burner cannot properly burn the fuel if it is not
y
supplied with a reliable combustion air source.
Follow the guidelines in the latest editions of the NFP A
y
31 and CSA-B139 regarding providing adequate air for
combustion and ventilation.
The burner requires combustion air and ventilation air
y
for reliable operation. Assure that the building and/or
combustion air openings comply with National Fire
Protection Standard for Oil-Burning Equipment, NFP A 31.
46104 BCF5 R07
For appliance/burner units in confi ned spaces, the room
must have an air opening near the top of the room plus
one near the fl oor, each with a free area at least one square
inch per 1,000 Btu/hr input of all fuel burning equipment
in the room. For other conditions, refer to NFPA 31 (CSA
B1139-M91 in Canada).
y
If there is a risk of the space being under negative pressure
or of exhaust fans or other devices depleting available
air for combustion and ventilation, the appliance/burner
should be installed in an isolated room provided with
outside combustion air.
Clearances
With the burner installed in the appliance, there must be
y
adequate space in front of and on the sides of the burner
to allow access and operation. Verify that the clearance
dimensions comply with all local codes and with the
appliance manufacturer’s recommendations.
Fuel supply
Nozzle pressure
Oil Supply Pressure
Control Required
Damage to the pump, fi lter or other compo-
nent seals could cause possible oil leakage
and potential fi re hazard.
The oil supply inlet pressure to the fuel unit cannot
y
exceed 3 psig.
Do NOT install valves in return line.
y
Ensure that a pressure-limiting device is installed in
y
accordance with the latest edition of the NFPA 31.
The fuel supply piping and tank must provide #1 or #2 fuel
y
oil at pressure or vacuum conditions suitable for the fuel
unit (oil pump) on the burner. Refer to fuel unit literature
in the literature envelope in the burner carton to verify
allowable suction pressure.
If fuel supply is level with or higher than fuel unit —
When the fuel unit is not required to lift the oil, the
y
installation is usually suitable for either a one-pipe or twopipe oil system. The oil pressure at the inlet of the fuel unit
must not exceed 3 psig.
Refer to the Mount the Burner Section of this manual for
y
one-pipe or two-pipe fuel supply installation instructions.
If fuel supply is below the fuel unit —
Use a two-pipe oil system when the fuel unit must lift the
y
oil more than 8 feet if burner is equipped with a B fuel
unit. The return line provided by the two-pipe system is
needed to purge the air from the fuel lines and minimize
the likelihood of air-related problems during operation.
Correct Nozzle and Flow
Rate Required
Incorrect nozzles and fl ow rates could
result in impaired combustion, underfi ring, over-fi ring, sooting, puff-back
of hot gases, smoke and potential fi re
or asphyxiation hazards.
Use only nozzles having the brand, fl ow rate (gph),
spray angle and pattern specifi ed by the appliance
manufacturer.
Follow the appliance manufacturer’s specifi cations for
the required pump outlet pressure for the nozzle, since
this affects the fl ow rate.
Nozzle manufacturers calibrate nozzle fl ow rates at
y
100 psig.
This burner utilizes pressures higher than 100 psig, so
y
the actual nozzle fl ow rate will be greater than the gph
stamped on the nozzle body. (Example: A 4.00 gph
nozzle at 140 psig = 4.70 gph.
For typical nozzle fl ow rates at various pressures
y
see accompanying chart.
The fuel unit nozzle port pressure is factory set at 140
y
psig. Some original equipment manufacturer burner applications may call for a lower pressure to obtain a required
fi ring rate. Do not change this pressure unless directed to
do so by the appliance manufacturer.
Electrical supply
Verify that the power connections available are correct for
y
the burner. Refer to Figure 1. All power must be supplied
through fused disconnect switches.
Vent system
The fl ue gas venting system must be in good condition and
y
must comply with all applicable codes.
