4.14.1 Gas pressure
The adjacent diagrams are used to calculate manifold pressure
taking into account combustion chamber pressure.
Gas manifold pressure measured at test point 1)(Fig. 32), with:
• combustion chamber at 0” WC
• burner operating at maximum output
• Combustion head adjusted as indicated in diagram (Fig. 16)
Calculate the approximate high fire output of the burner as follows:
– subtract the combustion chamber pressure from the gas pres-
sure measured at test point 1)(Fig. 32).
– Find the nearest pressure value to your result in Fig. 31.
– Read off the corresponding output on the left.
Example for RLS 200/EV
• Maximum output operation
• Natural gas
• Gas pressure at test point 1)(Fig. 32) = 9.2” WC
• Pressure in combustion chamber = 1.2” WC
9.2 - 1.2 = 8” WC
A maximum output of 8.000 MBtu/hr shown in diagram corre-
sponds to 8” WC pressure.
This value serves as a rough guide, the effective delivery must be
measured at the gas meter.
