"L" blowers develop 1"w.c. air pressure at burner. "H" models develop 4.5"w.c. at burner. Motors are 230-460/3/60, except 115/1/60 is an option for -1000 burners.

Temperature Effect. Burner performance may change as oven air temperature rises from start-up to operating levels. Effect is most marked at elevated temperatures, but burner operation should be checked at all temperatures. Table 2 indicates how fan pressure changes with temperature. Altitude also affects blower capacity and pressure. Above 5000 feet, larger motors are usually required-- consult North American.

When selecting burners, make sure pressure drop between burner and process is within the stability ranges of Table 3 at all temperatures and all firing rates.
