Model 702GAS Advanced gas burners — Instruction manual

Carlin part number MN702G Rev. 03/14/11

– 8 –

Where appliance instructions differ from this manual, follow the appliance instructions.

Prepare the appliance

Burner input: Install a burner sized for the normal input rating
of the appliance. Do not install a burner with a higher firing
rate than the appliance rating. Do not install a burner with a
firing rate more than 10% lower than the appliance rating.
The appliance and vent system could be damaged due to
condensation.

Clean the appliance: Clean the appliance thoroughly. Test
all electrical components and verify the relief valve works
(boilers only).

Seal the appliance:

Seal all flue-gas containing joints. Seal

all connections to the vent piping or breeching.

Verify combustion chamber dimensions comply with the
minimum dimensions recommended on page 9. Install or
replace chamber liner if required by the appliance manu-
facturer. The burner must not extend into the combustion
chamber. The end of the burner air tube must be within ¼”
of the inside face of the chamber. If the space around the
burner air tube is more than ¼”, wrap the burner air tube
with minimum 2300-°F-rated ceramic fiber blanket to seal
off the gap.

Repair or replace damaged appliance components.
Inspect the appliance thoroughly. Follow appliance manufac-
turer’s guidelines for repair or replacement of any component
found defective.

When cleaning the appliance or working with

ceramic fiber

refractories or fiberglass insulation, see WARNING on this
page.

Failure to comply with the above could result in severe per-
sonal injury, death or substantial property damage.

Prepare appliance for burner mounting

Positive overfire pressure applications: When firing with posi-

tive overfire pressure, do not exceed the pressure specified
in the appliance manual.

Positive overfire pressure reduces maximum burner capacity.
See Page 3 for estimated reduction in burner capacity with
pressurized firing and high altitude applications.

Failure to comply could result in severe personal injury, death
or substantial property damage.

Ceramic fiber or
Fiberglass insulation

Ceramic fiber materials, such as chamber liners, may

contain carcinogenic particles (chrystobalites) after
exposure to heat. Airborne particles from fiberglass
or ceramic fiber components have been listed as
potentially carcinogenic by the State of California.
Take the following precautions when removing,
replacing and handling these items.

Avoid breathing dust and avoid contact with skin
or eyes. Wear long-sleeved, loose-fitting clothing,
gloves and eye protection. Use a NIOSH N95 certified
respirator. This respirator meets requirements for pro-
tection from chrystobalites. Actual job requirements
or NIOSH regulations may require other or additional
protection. For information, refer to the NIOSH website,
http://www.cdc.gov/niosh/homepage.html.

Ceramic fiber removal: To prevent airborne dust,
thoroughly wet ceramic fiber with water before
handling. Place ceramic fiber materials in a plastic
bag and seal to dispose.

Avoid blowing, tearing, sawing or spraying
fiberglass or ceramic fiber materials. If such opera-
tions are necessary, wear extra protection to prevent
breathing dust.

Wash work clothes separately from other laun-
dry. Rinse clothes washer thoroughly afterwards to
prevent contamination of other clothing.

NIOSH First aid procedures:

Eye exposure — irrigate immediately

Breathing — fresh air.
