7Eclipse RatioMatic Burners, RM Series, V5, Installation Guide 110, 12/3/2014Checklist Before InstallationAir SupplyProvide an opening in the burner room of at least onesquare inch per 4000 BTU/hr (6 cm 2 per 1 kW) to supplythe burner intake with fresh, outdoor, combustion air.If there are corrosive fumes or materials in thesurrounding air, find an uncontaminated source to supplyair to the burner, or provide a sufficient air filtering system.ExhaustDo not allow exhaust fumes to accumulate in the workarea. Provide some positive means for exhausting fromthe furnace and the building.AccessMake sure the burner is installed in such a way to alloweasy access for inspection and maintenance.EnvironmentMake sure the local environment matches the originaloperating specifications. Check the following items:• Voltage, frequency and stability of the electricalpower• Fuel type and supply pressure of the fuel• Availability of enough fresh, clean combustion air• Humidity, altitude and temperature of air• Presence of damaging corrosive gases in the air• Prevent direct exposure to waterInstalling the Flame Sensor1. Install the flame sensor into the 1/2" NPT opening in therear cover.2. Make sure the flame sensor of a burner is connected tothe electrical circuit for that burner.■ If you connect the flame sensor of a burner to theelectrical circuit of the wrong burner, you cancause fires and explosions.There are two different types of flame sensors; UVscanner and flamerod.UV ScannerThe UV Scanner must be compatible to the flamemonitoring control that is used. Refer to the manual ofyour selected control for proper selection of the scanner.Flame RodNOTE: Only specific burner sizes with alloy or siliconcarbide combustors can use a flamerod (see specificburner datasheets).For detailed information on how to install and connect aflamerod, refer to Bulletin/Info guide 832.Installing the Spark PlugInstall the spark plug into the opening in the rear cover.NOTE: Do not apply any grease to the threads of thespark plug or bad grounding of the spark plug may occur,resulting in a weak spark.■ Adjustments may vary from Eclipse publishedvalues if the flame controls other than thoserecommended in the Design Guide are used.Consult with the engineer who specified thealternate control for limitations.Burner InstallationChamber OpeningFigure 3.1.Provide an opening in the chamber wall at least 1/2"(12mm) larger in diameter than the outside diameter of thecombustor, or 1/2" (12mm) larger in height and width thanthe square refractory block. (1/4" - 6mm per side).Provide an accessible pressure tap on the chamber wallto measure the pressure inside the firing chamber. Thepressure tap should be located near the burner.Mounting PatternAttach mounting bolts to the chamber wall. Position thesebolts to match the clearance holes “C” on the burnermounting flange. Refer to the appropriate RatioMaticdatasheet.DANGERNOTICEMinimum 1/4" (6mm)space per sideCombustorChamber Wall
