INITIAL START-UP

NOTE:

In the following step, adjust the valve position to
13% for natural gas, or 16% for propane.

19. When the oxygen level is within the specified

range at 30%, change the valve position to
13% for natural gas (or 16% for propane).


20. The oxygen levels at the 13% valve position

(or 16% for propane) should be as shown in
Table 2. No adjustment should be
necessary. Contact the factory if the oxygen
or carbon monoxide levels are not within the
specified range.

21. Change the valve position to 100%. After the

combustion analyzer has settled, compare
the measured oxygen level with the levels in
Table 3.

22. If the measured oxygen reading is below the

oxygen range in Table 3, loosen the two
bolts that secure the inlet air shutter to the
unit using a 7/16” wrench (see Fig. 4.4).
Open the shutter 1/4” to 1/2” to increase the
oxygen level, then tighten the nuts.


23. Wait for the analyzer to settle then compare

the new oxygen reading to Table 3. Repeat
the inlet air shutter adjustment until the
oxygen is within the specified range. Firmly
tighten the inlet air shutter locking nuts when
finished.

24. If the measured oxygen reading is above the

oxygen range in Table 3, loosen the two
7/16" locking nuts securing the inlet air
shutter.

REMINDER:

At 30% valve position, adjust only the differential
pressure regulator. At 100% valve position,
adjust only the inlet air shutter.

25. Close the air shutter 1/4” to 1/2” to decrease

the oxygen level and tighten the two nuts.

26. Allow the analyzer to settle then compare the

new oxygen reading to Table 3.

27. Repeat the adjustment until the oxygen is

within the specified range. Firmly tighten the
inlet air shutter locking nuts when finished.
