TEMPEST GAS BURNER TILE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS INCHES (MM)
Ceramic Tile in Fiber Wall Installation Instructions (see Figure 1) 1. Cut circle opening in furnace shell. Allow 6 mm (¼") clearance all the way around tile.The hole size in the shell for 4441-1 through -4-B is 140 mm (5½") and for 4441-5 through -7 is 203 mm (8"). 2. Cut a straight hole in fiber wall for the burner tile. The hole should be approximately 13 mm (½”) smaller than the tile OD to allow the fiber to be tight up against the tile. 3. Wrap the tile in cling wrap and then insert tile into the fiber wall. The cling wrap will assist in pushing the tile into a small- er fiber hole. 4. Bolt burner to furnace shell. We recommend using a flanged burner with a gasket at this joint for applications with pressur- ized chambers. A burner mounting gasket is available from North American. 5. Periodically check for fiber shrinkage in vicinity of the burn- er tile. Repack any voids with bulk fiber insulation to maintain a thermal seal between the furnace interior and the shell.

Ceramic Tile in Monolithic/Brick Wall Installation Instructions (see Figure 2) Figure 1c: Cross section through 305 mm fiber-lined furnace wall with an "FL" style mounting plate with ceramic tile. 1. Cut circle opening in furnace shell. Allow 6 mm (¼") clearance all the way around tile. The hole size in the shell for 4441-1 through -4-B is 140 mm (5½") and for 4441-5 through -7 is 203 mm (8") . 2. Make hole in furnace wall to insert the tile. We recommend a minimum gap of 38 mm (1½") between the tile and the brick/ monolithic wall. Fill this gap with compressed ceramic fiber. The hole in the wall can be either square or round. If pushing the tile through the fiber, wrap the tile in cling wrap to assist the tile through the fiber. 3. Bolt burner to furnace shell. We recommend using a flanged burner with a gasket at this joint for applications with pressur- ized chambers. A burner mounting gasket is available from North American.

4. Pack fiber tightly around the tile. Fill all voids to provide a tight thermal seal from the furnace interior to the shell.
