Why I cannot initiate a start sequence on my Eclipse Burner?
- M
  Michael NolanAug 19, 2025
  If you cannot initiate a start sequence on your Eclipse Burner, there are several potential causes: * The air pressure switch may not have made contact. In this case, you should check the air pressure switch adjustment, air filter, blower rotation, and outlet pressure from the blower. * The high gas pressure switch may have activated. You should check the incoming gas pressure, adjust it if necessary, and check the pressure switch setting and operation. * The low gas pressure switch may have activated. You should check the incoming gas pressure, adjust it if necessary, and check the pressure switch setting and operation. * Ensure that the main power to the system is switched to the “on” position.

What to do if the Eclipse RatioMatic RM2000 goes out when it cycles to high fire?
- K
  Katherine DaviesAug 22, 2025
  If the Eclipse Burner goes out when it cycles to high fire, consider these possible causes: * Insufficient gas pressure into the ratio regulator: Check the start-up settings, measure gas pressures, and adjust as needed. Also, check for valve train pressure loss. * Leaking loading line to the ratio regulator: Repair the leak. * Pilot set too lean: Increase pressure into the pilot regulator. * Main gas adjusting valve not open enough: Increase valve opening. * Fluctuating suction or back pressure: Cross-connect pilot regulator vent to the combustion chamber, but not via the burner air pressure tap.

Why is my Eclipse RatioMatic RM2000 unstable and producing soot, smoke, or excessive carbon monoxide?
- J
  James WilliamsAug 26, 2025
  If the Eclipse Burner is unstable or produces soot, smoke, or excessive carbon monoxide, the issue is likely an air/gas ratio that is out of adjustment. To resolve this, measure all the gas pressures and air pressures, and compare them to the documented initial start-up settings, adjusting them where necessary.

How to fix a weak or unstable low fire flame on an Eclipse RatioMatic RM2000?
- S
  savannah18Aug 29, 2025
  If the low fire flame on your Eclipse Burner is weak or unstable, consider the following potential causes: * Not enough gas flowing to the burner: Adjust the ratio regulator to increase the gas flow. * Not enough air: Check for proper blower rotation, check the air filter for blockage, and compensate for the chamber by opening the low fire air butterfly valve position. * Flamerod position: Swap the flamerod with the spark rod so that the flamerod is 180° from the combustion air inlet.

Why the Eclipse RatioMatic RM2000 Burner cannot achieve full capacity?
- A
  aswansonSep 1, 2025
  If the Eclipse Burner cannot achieve full capacity, it could be due to a blocked air filter. Clean or replace the air filter to resolve this. Another possible cause is that the gas pressure going into the ratio regulator is too low; in this case, adjust the gas pressure.

Why is the main flame too long and yellow at high fire on my Eclipse Burner?
- O
  Oscar ChurchSep 4, 2025
  If the main flame of your Eclipse Burner is too long and yellow at high fire, it's likely that the gas flame is too high. This can be due to the gas butterfly valve being open too far, or the main gas regulator spring being screwed in too far.

Why is the main flame too short at high fire on my Eclipse RatioMatic RM2000?
- J
  John ValenzuelaSep 8, 2025
  If the main flame on your Eclipse Burner is too short at high fire, it indicates that the gas flow is too low. This could be because the gas butterfly valve is closed too far, or the main gas regulator spring is screwed out too far.

Why is low fire (pilot) flame too long, soft or yellow on my Eclipse RatioMatic RM2000?
- M
  Melissa LynnSep 12, 2025
  If the low fire (pilot) flame on your Eclipse Burner is too long, soft, or yellow, it could be due to too much gas flow. This can happen if the main gas proportionator spring is set for too much flow, or if the pilot gas cock adjustment is open too far.

What to do if Eclipse RatioMatic RM2000 Burner start-up sequence runs but burner does not light?
- B
  brichmondNov 14, 2025
  If the Eclipse Burner's start-up sequence runs but the burner doesn't light, several issues could be the cause. It might be due to a lack of ignition, which could stem from various reasons: * No power to the ignition transformer: Restore the power. * Open circuit between the ignition transformer and the igniter: Repair or replace the wiring. * Dirty igniter: Clean it. * Igniter not correctly grounded: Clean the threads (do not apply grease). * Broken igniter insulation: Inspect and replace if broken. Another potential reason is insufficient gas. This could be due to: * Low gas pressure: Check start-up settings and adjust pressures. * Leaking impulse line: Repair any leaks. * Improperly adjusted pilot adjusting valve or bypass valve: Adjust bypass or low fire gas. * Sta...
