INITIAL START-UP

14. Use a flat-tip screwdriver to adjust the

differential pressure regulator. Turn the

screwdriver:

counterclockwise to increase the

oxygen level

clockwise to decrease the oxygen level

15. Replace the regulator cap and cap gasket

and wait for the analyzer reading to settle.

16. When the analyzer reading settles, compare

the new oxygen reading to Table 4.

17. If necessary, repeat the adjustment until the

oxygen level is within the range specified in

Table 4.

18. Replace the regulator cap and cap gasket.

NOTE:

Adjust only the differential regulator at 30%

control signal; do not adjust the air shutter.

19. Once the oxygen level is within the specified

range at 30%, change the valve position to

16%.

20. Oxygen levels at the 16% valve position

should be as shown in Table 5. Also,

ensure that the CO and NOx readings do

not exceed the values shown. No

adjustment should be necessary. Contact

AERCO if the oxygen, CO or NOx levels are

not within the specified ranges.

NOTE:

At a 100% valve position, the KC1000 will not

operate reliably at inlet air temperatures below

55°F if the Cold Air Damper (P/N 99026) is not

installed. See paragraphs 2.8.2 and 2.8.3.

21. Change the valve position to 100% and

allow the combustion analyzer to settle. If

the optional Cold Air Damper (P/N 99026) is

installed, compare the measured oxygen

level with the levels in Table 6. If the Cold

Air Damper is not installed, compare the

oxygen levels with the readings in Table 6A.

21. If the measured oxygen reading is below the

oxygen range in Table 6 (or 6A), loosen the

two bolts that secure the inlet air shutter to

the unit using a 7/16” wrench (see

Figure 4.4). Open the shutter 1/4” to 1/2” to

increase the oxygen level, then tighten the

nuts.
