9. Set

the

switch to the ON position.

10. Access the control panel Configuration

Menu (Table 3-4) and ensure that the Max
Valve Position is set to 100%. (Refer to
Chapter 3, para. 3.3 for instructions on
changing menu options).

11. Change the valve position to 29% using the

▲ arrow key. The unit should begin its start
sequence and fire.

12.

Next, verify that the gas pressure
downstream of the Natural Gas SSOV is 3”
W.C. for both FM and IRI gas trains. If gas
pressure adjustment is required, refer to
Figure 4-4 and remove the brass hex nut on
the SSOV actuator containing the gas
pressure regulator. (For IRI gas trains, the
regulator is on the downstream SSOV).
Make gas regulator adjustments using a flat-
tip screwdriver to obtain 3” W.C.

13. Raise the valve position to 100% and verify

that the gas pressure downstream of the
SSOV remains at 3” W.C. Readjust pressure
if necessary.

14. With the valve position at 100%, insert the

combustion analyzer probe into the vent
probe port opening and allow enough time
for the combustion analyzer to settle.

15. Compare the measured oxygen level to the

oxygen range for the inlet air temperature
shown in Table 4-1. Also, ensure that the
carbon monoxide (CO) and nitrogen oxide
(NOx) readings do not exceed the values
shown.

16. If necessary, adjust the iris air damper

shown in Figure 4-5 until the oxygen level is
within the range specified in Table 4-1.

17. Once the oxygen level is within the specified

range at 100%, lower the valve position to
80%.
