Practical Pointers | Fives North American

INTRODUCTION

PURPOSE This booklet will help you adjust your burners for (a) better fuel efficiency, (b) more production with fewer interruptions, (c) safer operation, and (d) improved uniformity.

Combustion systems covered include: 1. Premix Gas Burner Systems, 2. Nozzle-Mix Gas Burner Systems 3. Oil Burner Systems 4. Dual-Fuel Burner Systems 5. Pilot Systems

COVERAGE Simple straightforward explanations relate to installation, initial setup, start-up, operation, adjustment, servicing, and troubleshooting of pressure-balanced type air/fuel ratio controls (zero governors, atmospheric regulators, cross- connected governors, cross-connected regulators). Further information concerning adjustments for most efficient operation is contained in North American Handbook Supplement 149. SERVICING Please remember that cleanliness and routine maintenance can save a lot of future headaches. When your combustion system is not working properly, consult this booklet first. Service calls may be costly and there may be delays until a serviceman is available. Try to determine which component of the system is causing the trouble, and then (if you cannot fix it yourself) call the manufacturer of that component. It is wasteful of money and time to call a burner serviceman if a temperature control is at fault...and vice versa. WARNING Search through this book until you find a schematic that corresponds to your combustion system. Beware of seemingly small variations in equipment. These important differences affect the method of adjustment and operation.
