Installation Instructions
Horizontal mounting is preferred, but burner may
be mounted in any position suitable for automatic
control motor and UV scanner (if used).
OVENPAK
®
Burners will typically be installed
through an oven wall or insulated air duct. Cut open-
ing approximately 1" larger in diameter than discharge
sleeve to allow for thermal expansion of sleeve.
Burner mounting requires four studs and a flat
mounting surface perfectly centered on the discharge
sleeve.
After placing burner in position over studs, add lock
washers and nuts, then draw up hand-tight only.
Check that burner is seated evenly all around the
flange, filling any gaps to prevent air leakage, then
tighten all nuts firmly.
For proper performance of any burner, air inlet and
motor should be surrounded by clean, fresh, cool air.
Burner and pipe manifold support will be re-
quired to support weight of the burner and connected
pipe train components. Air control motors, in particu-
lar, require additional support. Maxon connecting
base and linkage assemblies are designed to position
the control motors to work with the burner, not to
support their weight.
The Packaged Model “400” OVENPAK

Burner
requires external auxiliary support provided by the
user. The support configuration may be similar to the
leg support or knee bracket support illustrated below.
Suggested supporting arrangements for

Burners:
Additional burner support may be required in
conjunction with a stiffener plate when mounting
OVENPAK

Burner (weighing 100-350 pounds)
through typical thin wall of heater/oven panels.
For push-through systems, use Maxon special
back pressure gasket between stiffener plate and
discharge sleeve flange and use (2) ring gaskets
between discharge sleeve flange and burner casting
to prevent back flow of high temperature air. Fill area
D (see sketch below) with no more than 2" of high
temperature packing (too little will overheat mounting;
too much will overheat sleeve).

Burners
For pull-through systems, spacers may be
installed on stud bolts and area D left empty to admit
cooling air past the sleeve.
WARNING: Welding of burner flange to stiffener
plate may cause warpage of burner flange and
require additional seal material to prevent
leakage.
Four lock screws permit centering of mixing cone
within burner body and sleeve.
