COMBUSTION
CHAMBER
A combustion chamber
is normally
required to
protect
non-heat
transfer surfaces, and to
provide
a
radiant
bed
for rapid heat transfer
to the
primary
surfaces of the
heat
exchanger.
lf in
good
condition,
the existing combustion chamber can be used.
Afull
combustion chamber
liner is recommended for
warm air
furnaces,
(see
Figure 4),
and a target
wall
or
full
combustion chamber liner is recommended
for wet leg cast
iron
or steel boilers.
(See
Figures 5
and 6). lf a built-up chamber is necessary, use
2300'
F
(1260"C)
minimum insulating fire-brick or
fiberfrax.
THE BURNER
AIR TUBE MUST
NOT BE
ALLOWED TO EXTEND INTO THE
CHAMBER
PROPER; lT MUST BE
SET
1/2 INCH
(12.7mm1
SHORT
OF
THE INSIDE SURFACE.
Before
permanently
securing the burner to the
heating appliance
with
either the adjustable mounting
flange or
pedestal
or cementing around the air tube
in the combustion chamber opening,
check
that the
burner
head
assembly
is free
of
foreign
materials and
that the
sensor
and electrode
probes
have not been
damaged or
repositioned,
see
Figure 13.

PIPING
NOTICE:
All

must comply
with
state

codes.
The
available
gas

pressure
should
be within minimum and maximum
pressures
shown
in
the burner specifications.
lf
the
gas
supply
pressure
exceeds the 14"

(3.5

maximum,
an
intermediate main
gas
regulator must
be installed
ahead of the main
gas
manual
shut
off valve
shown
in Figure 8.
WARNING: Failure
to
install
the
intermediate
gas
regulator will result in
gas
leakage from burner
gas
valve.
A drip leg
or sediment
trap must be installed in the
supply
line
to the burner. See
Figure
8.
A
pipe
union
shall be
installed in the
gas
line
adjacent to, and upstream from, the main
gas
manual
shutoff
valve,
See
Figure
8.
The
gas
supply
piping
to the burner
should
branch
off
from the main
gas
supply
line
as close to the
gas
meter as
possible.
Do not
connect to the bottom of
a
horizontal
section. See
Figure
9
for
gas
supply
pipe
sizes.
Use
new black iron
pipe
and malleable fittings free
of burrs and defects. Use
pipe
joint
compound
resistant to liquefied
petroleum gases.

COMBUSTION CHAMBER
A combustion chamber is normally required to
protect non-heat transfer surfaces, and to provide a
radiant bed for rapid heat transfer to the primary
surfaces of the heat exchanger.
If
in
good condition,
the existing combustion chamber can be used.
A full combustion chamber liner is recommended for
warm air furnaces, (see Figure 4), and a target wall
or
full combustion chamber liner is recommended
for wet leg cast iron
or
steel boilers. (See Figures 5
and 6). If a built-up chamber is necessary, use
2300° F (1260°C) minimum insulating fire-brick
or
fiberfrax.
THE BURNER AIR TUBE MUST NOT
BE
ALLOWED TO EXTEND INTO THE CHAMBER
PROPER; IT MUST
BE
SET 1/2 INCH (12.7mm)
SHORT OF THE INSIDE SURFACE.
Before permanently securing the burner to the
heating appliance with either the adjustable mounting
flange
or
pedestal or cementing around the air tube
in
the combustion chamber opening, check that the
burner head assembly is free of foreign materials and
that the sensor and electrode probes have not been
damaged
or
repositioned, see Figure 13.
