5. If the combustion chamber pressure fluctuates or is not atmospheric (sealed-in burners) and if gas pressure is less than air pressure, use a 3-pipe bleeder, as shown in Figure 5: this arrangement bleeds off a portion of the air impulse pressure to the combustion chamber so that fluctuations in combustion chamber pressure are neutralized by being applied to both sides of the controlling diaphragm in the gas regulator. Note: A 3-pipe bleeder can be used as a 2-pipe bleeder when the combustion chamber is at atmospheric pressure. In this case the piping connection to the combustion chamber can be omitted.
