702GAS overview

The Model 702GAS gas burner is a low-high-low (step modulating) burner
that utilizes a damper motor and butterfly valve to control air (and gas fuel
rate).

The burner operates on either natural gas or propane.

See the next page for gas train component locations.

Operation

Ignition for main flame is accomplished by a proved gas pilot of approxi-
mately 280,000 Btuh. Pilot gas is introduced at the main burner flame re-
tention ring, and is ignited by a Carlin 14,000-volt electronic ignitor wired
to the two electrodes.

After the pilot flame is proven, the two main gas safety valves open. The
pilot gas valve closes after a time delay to allow main flame to establish.
Flame is monitored both for pilot flame and main flame with a UV scanner
mounted to the under side of the burner combustion head assembly.

The burner main flame begins at low fire. If additional input is required,
the damper motor opens the gas butterfly valve and air damper to their
high fire positions.

Gas is introduced into the burner through a manifold around the air tube. The
gas then circulates through a set of four orifice spuds into the air stream,
ahead of the retention ring. The spin of the air flow at the retention ring
thoroughly mixes the gas/air before it reaches the combustion zone.

Firing rate adjustment

See the “Starting and operating” section of this manual for the complete
description of the adjustment process. The following is a brief summary
only.

High-fire air is set by adjusting the combustion head position (to control air
flow through and around the retention ring).

Low-fire air is then adjusted by fine-tuning the position of the low fire
adjusting screw.

Pilot gas flow is set for a smooth light-off. Then gas inputs are adjusted for
good combustion at low and high-fire air settings.

Gas pressure requirements

The 702GAS burner requires 3.4” w.c. minimum pressure at the butterfly
valve during high fire. Select a gas train that has a pressure drop no more
than the available pressure at the gas train inlet minus the 3.4” needed
at the butterfly valve.

See page 13 for gas train pressure drop information. The burner is equipped
with a 1” gas train unless a larger gas train is ordered.
Example:
A boiler has an input rating of 1,300,000 Btuh. Gas pressure available at
the gas train entrance is 6.0” w.c. Subtract 3.4” from the available 6.0”
w.c. The gas train pressure drop must be 2.6” or less. A 1” gas train has
a pressure drop of 3.3” w.c., and cannot be used. Select a 1¼” RV-61
regulator gas train, which has a pressure drop of 0.87” w.c.
