FVO-1000TR SETUP PROCEDURE
The two FVOHC-400 heaters in the trailer need to be tested and set up
before every operation. Proper combustion must be achieved using a
certified combustion analyzer and smoke gun tester to ensure optimum
set up. The air adjustment should be made to achieve a maximum of
10% CO
2
and No. 1 or “trace” smoke. (Bacharach Scale)
SETTING THE AIR ADJUSTMENT PLATE
A) Regulation of the
combustion air flow is made
by adjustment of the manual
AIR ADJUSTMENT PLATE
(1) after loosening the FIXING
SCREWS (2 & 3). The initial
setting of the air adjustment
plate is set to 4.5 at the
factory.
B) The proper number on the
manual AIR ADJUSTMENT
PLATE (1) should line up with
the SETTING INDICATOR (4)
on the fan housing cover.
Once set, the air adjustment
plate should be secured in
place by tightening SCREWS
2 and 3.
C) The final position of the air
adjustment plate will vary on
each installation. Use instruments to establish the proper settings for maximum
CO
2
and a smoke reading of zero.
NOTE: Variations in flue gas, smoke, CO
2
and temperature readings may be
experienced when the burner cover is put in place. Therefore, the burner
cover must be in place when making the final combustion instrument readings,
to ensure proper test results.
