clockwise, 1/4-1/2 turns, to increase gas
flow.


16. Wait for the analyzer reading to settle, then

compare the new reading to Table 1. Repeat
adjustment until oxygen is within the
specified range.

NOTE:

Adjust only the differential regulator at 30%

control signal, do not adjust the air shutter


17. Once the oxygen level is within the specified

range at 30%, change the firing rate to 20%.


18. Oxygen levels at the 16% firing rate should be

10% or less as shown in Table 2. If the
measured oxygen level is less then 10%, no
adjustment is necessary. If the measured
oxygen levels are greater than 10%, rotate the
regulator adjustment tool clockwise 1/4 to 1/2
revolution to add gas.


19. Wait for the analyzer to settle. Repeat

adjustment until the measured oxygen reading
is 10% or less.


20. If the oxygen level cannot be brought to 10%

or less, check the oxygen level in 1%
increments above the 16% firing rate until an
oxygen level of 10%, or less, is measured.
Reset the unit’ stop level at that firing rate. Go
back and recheck the oxygen level at 30%
before continuing.

Firing Rate

21. Change the firing rate 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. Close the air shutter 1/4” to 1/2” to
decrease the oxygen level and tighten the
two nuts.

25. Allow the analyzer to settle, then compare

the new oxygen reading to Table 3.
