burners should be

GENERAL INTORMATION

HEATING PLANT - Before

installing this burner in a conversion installation,

try to

provide

adequate

space to service the burner

properly

when installing for

easy maintenance.

The

heating

system

should

be

narofirllrr irenoniorl

for defects and cleanliness,

if

proper performance

is to

be obtained,

An oil

bUrner is

only a means of supplying heat for the

firebox and from

there

the heating system

must absorb

and

circulate

the

heat.

The

flue

passages

and heat

absorbingt

surfaces must

be clean

to assure maximum

heat transfer to

the furnace

or boiler. Soot

and fly ash act as

insulators,

retarding

the

transfer of heat. All

doors, openings,

and

cracks should be cemented

air-tight to eliminate air

infiltration

into the heating

plant,

causing heat

Iosses,

Inspect

smoke

pipe

and

chimney

for elimination

of leaks

and obstructions. Be

sure of

adequate

chimney

size and height, Install a mechanical draft adjuster,

if need be,

same size as smoke

pipe (see

column

under

"Draft

Regulators").

Warning:

If this burner is equipped

with

a relight type control

it shall not be used

on appliances having

brick,

ceramic, or

castable

refractory

liner

for

combustion chamber. Hazard may

occur on flame failure

because

the flame detector may

see the hot

refractory liner

and not respond

to flame outage,

COMBUSTION

CHAMBER

The

purpose

of a combustion chamber is to maintarn a high

flame temperature, by reflecting

the heat

back

rnto

the flame. A hiqh

temperature

assures

greater

combustion efficrency

and

lower

stack losses.

An insulat-

inq refractory

or a Fiber Fax type chamber can be used with

this burner. It is rmportant to

select

and

install, if

no.6qqiy\r tho anrrggt

To

on

shoujd

be taken, because of the higher temperature levels

The

A.IR

SUPPLY

FOR

COMBUSTION

Do not install

in

rooms with lnsufficient air to suppoft combustion. Occasionaily it is necessary to

install win-

dows

or cut

holes

in

a door to these

rooms, to obtarn sufficient air and to

prevent

less than atmospheric

air

pressure

in the room. If there

is a lack of combustion air rn the room, the burner flame will be

yellow

and for-

mation

of soot will occur in the heatir-rg

unit. In buildings of conventional frame,

brick

or

stone

construction

without

utility rooms, basement

ivindows,

or stairs

doors, infiltration

is normally

adequate to

provide

air

for

combustion

and

for

operation

of the barometric draft
