CHAPTER 1 Introduction

1.1 — Overview
Industrial Combustion M/Series burners are assembled, wired, and tested at the factory. They are listed by the
Underwriters Laboratory, CSD-1, NFPA-85, I.R.I., F.M., and other regulatory agency control options are avail-
able.

The operator of this equipment must be familiar with the individual functioning of all controls to understand the
operations and procedures described in this manual, and supplementary instructions provided with optional con-
trols.

! Caution
Only factory authorized burner service personnel should start-up, adjust, or service this equipment.

1.2 — Description
The industrial Combustion M/Series burners are of the low pressure, air atomizing (nozzle) type. All burners fea-
ture ignition by spark-ignited gas pilot flame. With either fuel, the burner operates with full modulation. A switch
permits changeover from automatic fully modulated firing to manually set firing at any desired rate between min-
imum and maximum. Additional safeguards assure that the burner always returns to minimum firing position for
ignition.

M/Series burners are designed for automatic, unattended operation except for periodic inspection and mainte-
nance. After selecting the proper overload settings for the starter, the rest of the control panel components
require little attention except for occasional cleaning.

1.3 — Operating Controls

The burner is supplied with a remote control panel and with a burner mounted junction box.

IC-993 (revised 2010) 1-1

M/Series Manual
 Introduction

1.3.1 — Control Panel

The control panel contains a flame safeguard programming control, motor starters, relays, time delays, and ter-
minal strips mounted internally on a panel sub-base. Lights, switches, potentiometers, a control circuit breaker,
and flame safeguard displays are mounted externally on the panel. The burner control circuit operates on 115
volt, single phase, 60 hertz (or 50 hertz when required) alternating current. The major components are:

Component Details
On-Off Burner Switch For gas or oil only.
Fuel Selector Switch Gas-Off-Oil
For combination gas-oil burners only.
a) Gas Position: Selects gas as the firing fuel.
b) Off Position: Burner off.
c) Oil Position: Selects oil as the firing fuel.
NOTE: When changing from oil to gas fuel, allow the programmer to com-
plete post purge and shutdown before moving the selector switch to gas
position. This will allow the interlock circuit to de-energize at either the oil-
air pump or the compressor.
Control Circuit Breaker Supplementary low overcurrent protection only. No larger than 15 amps.
Auto-Manual Modulation Selector a) Auto Position: Selects boiler modulation control.
Switch b) Manual Position: Selects 135 ohm potentiometer for manual modulating
control.
Manual Modulating Control 135 ohm Increases or decreases the burner firing rate manually.
High Fire Limiting Control (optional) 270 ohm potentiometer, used to limit high fire travel.
Signal Lamps a) Power On (white): Illuminates when the control circuit is energized (pow-
ered).
b) Ignition (amber): Illuminates when the ignition transformer is powered,
and gas pilot valve is energized (open).
c) Main Fuel (green): Illuminates when the main fuel valve or valves (gas or
oil) are energized (open).
d) Flame Failure (red): Illuminates when the flame safeguard system fails to
detect pilot or main flame.

! Warning
To prevent serious personal injury or death, read the flame safeguard manual and fully understand its contents before
attempting to operate this equipment.

1.3.2 — Flame Safeguard Controls

Automatically programs each starting, operating, and shutdown cycle in conjunction with operating, limit, and
interlock devices. This includes, in timed sequence, operation of the blower motor, ignition system, fuel valve(s),
and modulating motor. The sequence includes air purge prior to ignition and after shutdown of the burner.

1-2 IC-993 (revised 2010)

M/Series Manual
1.4 — Combustion Air System

The flame scanner monitors both oil and gas flames and instantly responds to loss of flame.

The control recycles automatically during normal operation, or following a power interruption. It must be manu-
ally reset following a safety shutdown. An internal checking circuit, effective on every start, will prevent burner
operation in the event the flame relay is held in.

1.3.3 — Flame Scanner

Monitors gas or oil pilot flames and energizes the programmer’s flame relay in response to a flame. It monitors
main flame (oil or gas) after termination of pilot proving period.

1.3.4 — Motors
Drive impeller, air/oil metering unit, oil metering unit, fuel unit, and air compressor.

1.3.5 — Motor Starters

Energize motors.

1.3.6 — Ignition Transformer

Provides high voltage spark for ignition of gas pilot or main flame on direct spark models.

1.3.7 — Modulating Motor

Operates the air damper and fuel rate valves through a linkage system to adjust air-fuel ratios under all load con-
ditions. The low-fire switch, an integral auxiliary switch, must be closed to prove that the air damper and fuel
metering valve or metering unit, are in the low-fire position before ignition can occur.

1.4 — Combustion Air System

The air handling section is hinged for easy access to the air and firing head components. Centrifugal axial air flow
is a true forced draft design.

M/Series Manual
 Introduction

! Warning
To prevent serious personal injury or death from moving parts, shut off all electrical power before servicing this equip-
ment.

Component Details
Impeller Combustion air is supplied by a heavy duty balanced backward curved
impeller. This design greatly reduces the accumulation of any dirt, soot, or
debris on the impeller.
Motor The impeller is directly driven by the motor at 3450 rpm.
NOTE: Optional motor/impeller combinations are available for higher fur-
nace pressures, high altitude locations, and 50 cycle power.
Air Volume Regulator The volume control blades are positioned by linkage from the modulating
motor.
Air Handling Section The hinged assembly houses the impeller, motor, damper assembly, and air
straighteners.
Combustion Air Proving Switch A pressure sensitive switch actuated by air pressure created by the impeller.
Contacts close to prove combustion air flow.
Diffuser An air flow diffuser stabilizes flame front.

FIGURE 1-2. Diffuser and Drawer Assembly

1-4 IC-993 (revised 2010)

M/Series Manual
1.5 — Gas System

1.4.1 — Operation
Air from the impeller flows through the blast tube and diffuser to mix with fuel in the ignition zone. Combustion
air flow rate is determined by the position of the air regulating blades at the inlet of the impeller. Linking the air
flow with fuel flow provides efficient combustion at all firing rates.

1.5 — Gas System

Depending on the requirements of the regulating authority, the gas control system and gas train may consist of
some, or all of the following items:

Component Details
Gas Volume Valve The butterfly type valve is positioned by linkage from the modulating motor
and controls the rate of flow of gas.
Main Gas Valves Electrically operated safety shutoff valve(s) that open to admit gas to the
burner. Standard U.L. burners include:
Models 14-22, Diaphragm gas valve.
Models 28-42, One motorized gas valve w/closure interlock.
Models 54-105, One motorized gas valve w/closure interlock and one sole-
noid valve.
Main Gas Regulator Regulates gas train pressure to specified pressure required at inlet to the
gas train. Input is set by main gas pressure regulator adjustment.
Main Gas Cocks For manual shutoff of the gas supply upstream of the pressure regulator. A
second shutoff cock downstream of the main gas valve(s) provides a means
of testing for leakage through the gas valve(s).
High Gas Pressure Switch A pressure actuated switch that remains closed when gas pressure is below
(Models 28-105) a preselected setting. Should the pressure rise above the setting, the switch
contacts will open causing main gas valve(s) to close. This switch requires
manual reset after being tripped.
Low Gas pressure Switch A pressure actuated switch that remains closed when gas pressure is above
(Models 29-105) a preselected setting. Should the pressure drop below this setting, the
switch contacts will open, causing the main gas valve(s) to close. This
switch requires manual reset after being tripped.
NOTE: Gas train components upstream of the butterfly valve are shipped
loose to be mounted by the installer.

IC-993 (revised 2010) 1-5

M/Series Manual
 Introduction

1.6 — Pilot Gas Train

A solenoid valve that opens during the ignition period to admit fuel to the pilot. It closes after main flame is
established.

Component Details
Gas Pressure Regulator Reduces gas pressure to that required by the pilot.
Gas Pilot Shutoff Cock For manually closing the pilot gas supply.
NOTE: Pilot gas supply connection must be upstream of the main gas pres-
sure regulator.

1.6.3 — Operation
Metered gas flows through the main gas shutoff cock, through the pressure regulator to the automatic gas
valve(s) and butterfly valve to the gas manifold.

The butterfly gas valve modulates flow to burner input demand. The butterfly valve is positioned through
mechanical linkage by the modulating motor. The air control damper is positioned simultaneously by the modu-
lating motor.

The automatic gas valve(s) cannot be energized unless the combustion air proving switch is closed. The low and
high gas pressure switches must be closed to prove proper gas pressure.

FIGURE 1-3. Gas Train (configurations may vary)

A normally open vent valve, if required, is located between the two automatic gas valve(s). This valve is shut
when the automatic gas valve(s) is open. When the automatic valve(s) is closed, the vent valve is open for vent-
ing any present gas to the outside.

1.6 — Oil System

1.6.1 — Air Atomizing Burners

Models MM, MMG, ME, and MEG burners use compressed air for atomization. Atomizing air is independent of
combustion air. Either of the two air/oil systems are used, depending on burner size and fuel.

1-6 IC-993 (revised 2010)

M/Series Manual
1.6 — Oil System

Models MM, MMG 14-105: Use an integral air compressor/oil metering unit mounted on the burner and driven
by a separate motor.

Models ME, MEG: Supplied with a separate compressor module for mounting near the burner. The separately
driven oil metering unit is mounted on the burner.

1.6.2 — 3-Way Solenoid Valve

Metered oil enters the common port of the 3-way solenoid valve. During shutdown, pre- and post-purge, the
valve is de-energized (N.C. port closed) and all metered fuel oil returns to the storage tank. When the valve is
energized, metered oil is directed to the nozzle through the N.C. port.

1.6.3 — Nozzle Assembly

The nozzle assembly consists of four main parts: body, compression spring, swirler, and tip. The swirler is held
against the nozzle tip by the compression spring. The nozzle body has inlet ports for air and oil lines. Metered
fuel oil enters the nozzle body and flows through a tube to the swirler. Oil is forced from the core of the swirler to
the side ports where it meets with the atomizing air. Atomizing air enters and passes through the nozzle body to
grooves in the swirler, where it mixes with fuel oil. Air/oil passes through the grooves and out of the nozzle orifice
in a cone of atomized oil. Proper velocity and angle of the fine spray ensures good mixing with the combustion
air, providing quiet starts and excellent combustion efficiency. During pre- and post-purge, the nozzle tip is
purged with air. This prevents afterdrip or baked-on residue.

FIGURE 1-4. Nozzle Assembly

1.6.4 — Nozzle Line Electric Heater

Provides heat for No. 4, 5, and 6 fuel oil and is located between the metering pump and the 3-way valve. This
heater should not be used as a continuous run line heater. The heater has an adjustable thermostat and a cold oil
lockout switch which prevents burner from starting until proper atomizing temperature is attained.

1.6.5 — Oil Strainer

Prevents foreign matter from entering the burner oil system.

IC-993 (revised 2010) 1-7

M/Series Manual
 Introduction

1.6.6 — Atomizing Air Proving Switch

Pressure actuated switch contacts close when sufficient atomizing air pressure is present. The oil valve will not
open unless switch contacts are closed.

1.6.7 — Air/Lube Oil Tank

Burner mounted tank stores compressed air for oil atomization and oil for compressor lubrication. Contains wire
mesh filter to separate lube oil from compressed air.

1.6.8 — Integral Air/Oil Unit

Model designation MM, MMG No. 2 through 5 oil with atomization. These models utilize an integral air com-
pressor/oil metering unit which is separate drive at 1725 rpm and mounted on the burner.

FIGURE 1-5. Integral Air/Oil Unit

1.6.9 — Air Compressor

Air is drawn into the vane-type, rotary compressor section of the air/oil unit through an air cleaner. The com-
pressed air flows to an air-lube oil tank which serves the multiple purpose of lube oil mist recovery, lube oil
sump, and air storage.

The compressor is cooled and lubricated continuously by oil under pressure from the bottom of the tank. Oil
vapor is extracted from the compressor air, by a mist eliminator in the upper section of the tank. Atomizing air
flows to the nozzle at a constant volume, but air pressure increases as the firing rate increases. Atomizing air is
regulated by an adjusting valve in the return air line on integral metering units or in the air inlet on air compres-
sor module burners.

1.6.10 — Oil Metering

Fuel oil under nominal pressure in the circulating loop flows to the adjustable positive displacement (volumetric
metering unit). Oil metering is accomplished by changing the piston stroke by means of an eccentric shaft and
pin assembly. The pistons reciprocate in a rotor assembly, turning in a hardened steel sleeve having oil inlet and
discharge slots. During each revolution the pistons go through the following cycle:

1-8 IC-993 (revised 2010)

M/Series Manual
1.6 — Oil System

1. Inlet Cycle: The piston is at the bottom dead center position. At this position, the cavity between the top of the
piston and the outside diameter of the rotor fills with oil.
2. Discharge Cycle: (180º from inlet cycle) The piston is at the top dead center position. At this position, the oil
is forced out of the discharge port to the nozzle. The piston stroke length is determined by the position of the
eccentric shaft and plate.

The piston adjustment plate is positioned by an adjustable eccentric shaft. The eccentric shaft is positioned by
the modulator through adjustable linkage. Counterclockwise rotation of the eccentric shaft increases the piston
stroke (more oil delivered to nozzle), and clockwise rotation decreases the amount of oil delivered. When the
eccentric shaft is stationary, at any position, the stroke of the pistons remains constant, delivering a constant vol-
ume of oil regardless of viscosity.

FIGURE 1-6. Integral Compressor Air-Oil Metering System

1.6.11 — Separate Compressor Module Burners

All models ME and MEG burners have a burner mounted oil metering unit and a separate compressor module.

1.6.12 — Air Compressor Module

Air is supplied by a positive displacement rotary vane compressor. This provides a constant volume of atomizing
air regardless of pressure.

IC-993 (revised 2010) 1-9

M/Series Manual
 Introduction

The compressor module includes motor, air-oil reservoir tank, air filter, and lube oil cooling coil.

Air enters the compressor through the filter. The air flows from the compressor into the air/oil separating and res-
ervoir tank. Filtering material and baffles separate the lube oil from compressed air. The tank air pressure forces
lubricating oil from the tank to the compressor to lubricate bearings and vanes. A sight glass indicates the level
of lubricating oil in the air/oil reservoir. Lubricating oil must be visible in the gauge glass at all times.

Air compression heat is absorbed in part by the flow of lube oil, creating a hot oil mist. The air/oil mist is cooled
by a coil assembly. Lube oil is also cooled before entering the compressor.

FIGURE 1-7. Integral Air/Oil Unit

1.6.13 — Oil Metering

The oil metering unit is cored with channels through the housing. Fuel oil circulates through these channels
keeping the metering unit warm to prevent heavy oils from congealing when the burner is idle. The operation of
the oil metering unit is the same as the integral air/oil unit.

1.6.14 — Operation
Oil is delivered to the burner at low circulating loop pressure. Metered oil flows through the nozzle line electric
heater (heated, if necessary) to the common port of the 3-way solenoid valve to the normally open port and back

1-10 IC-993 (revised 2010)

to the return line during pre- and post-purge. Metered oil is delivered to the nozzle through the normally closed
port during the firing cycle.

CHAPTER 2 Installation

2.1 — Draft Conditions

A boiler or other heating vessel fired with an M/Series burner does not depend on chimney draft for proper com-
bustion air. Combustion air is supplied by the burner forced draft blower providing adequate air for any normal
combustion condition.

Since draft control is essential to maximum efficiency, a draft regulator may be required when the vessel is con-
nected to a tall stack or where wind conditions may cause erratic draft. Excessive furnace draft contributes to
inefficient burner operation.

Sealed boilers may be operated under positive firebox pressure within the capability of the burner.

2.2 — Combustion Air Supply

The space in which a burner operates must be supplied with adequate fresh air for combustion and ventilation
purposes. Fresh air supply must beet or exceed all code requirements. Consult with the insurance carrier and/or
local authorities for specific regulations.

! Warning
The boiler room pressure must be at least equal to the outdoor atmospheric pressure. Where fan ventilation is used,
air must be forced into the boiler room. Never exhaust air from the boiler room. Adjoining areas having exhaust fans
must be positively isolated from the boiler room.

2.3 — Combustion Chamber Design

It is not possible to include a complete design and construction in this chapter, but the following may be helpful
in arranging burner applications in typical boilers. Combustion chambers are of three basic types:
1. Completely water enclosed as in Scotch type boilers.
2. Conventional “dry bottom” firebox boilers having a refractory floor and full water walls.

IC-993 (revised 2010) 2-1

M/Series Manual
 Installation

3. Full refractory combustion chambers in “ash pit” type installations where a complete firebox is required below
the level of the boiler water walls.

The M/Series burners are of the forced draft flame retention type. Refractory is required only to protect surfaces
not adequately protected by free circulating water. Four basic objective are:
1. Provide adequate combustion space.
2. Avoid flame impingement.
3. Protect surfaces not adequately water cooled.
4. Seal openings.

FIGURE 2-1. Suggested Minimum Combustion Chamber Dimensions

Suggested minimum combustion chamber dimensions are based on the rated capacity of the burner and for a
Firebox type boiler.

While these dimensions are typical for good practice, satisfactory results may be achieved with modifications to
suit some conditions. Factors such as fuel properties, total combustion volume, and length of flame travel often
make fixed requirements impractical. When in doubt, consult the factory.

Figure 2-2 shows a typical Firebox boiler base installation (refer to Figure 2-1 for dimensions).

Combustion chamber firebrick side walls should extend a minimum of 2” above the mudleg of the boiler. The
rear wall should be carried 2 or 3 courses higher than the sidewall and may be corbelled to deflect the flame
from direct impingement.

Insulation should be provided between the refractory and the boiler base. Mineral wool, or other material not
likely to settle is preferred. The chamber front wall may be constructed of firebrick, insulating firebrick, or plastic

2-2 IC-993 (revised 2010)

M/Series Manual
2.3 — Combustion Chamber Design

refractory. Insulation should be used between refractory and front plate. A metal sleeve may be provided around
the burner opening to simplify burner service. Firebrick, or insulating firebrick, should be set in high temperature
bonding mortar with provision for expansion.

Figure 2-3 shows a typical fire door type installation in a sealed base Firebox boiler. Where combustion volume is
adequate and boiler design permits, fire door installations are acceptable. A suitable hearth can be made by fill-
ing the base with rubble and covering with loose or cast refractory.

Figure 2-4 shows a typical installation for Scotch type boilers.

2.4 — Dry Oven and Burner Installation

Prepare the boiler front plate as follows:
1. Determine burner mounting height by referring to Figure 2-1. Locate and scribe a level horizontal centerline
across the mounting face.
2. Locate and scribe vertical centerline. Locate studs or bolts so they are fully anchored in front plate.
3. Refer to Figures 2-5 through 2-8 for bolt circle and cut out dimensions.

4. At this point, check the position of the nozzle as it relates to the diffuser and electrodes, and check the diffuser
as it relates to the gas orifices and gas pilot. It is difficult to check these dimensions after the burner is in
place. Refer to the Maintenance Section of the manual for the drawer assembly dimensions.

Mounting Dry Oven on Burner:

5. Coat or dip burner gasket with Trowleze on both sides. Trowleze air set mortar should be thinned with water to
a consistency of thick pea soup.
6. Place gasket over oven studs and install oven on burner flange. Oven must be centered around burner blast
tube. Tighten nuts securely. Coat outer circumference of oven with Trowleze.

Mounting Burner to Heating Vessel:

7. Use rope gasket (not provided with burner) between burner flange and front plate, routing rope inside bolt cir-
cle and looped around each stud.
8. Locate burner and dry oven into position taking care not to damage any linkage or tubing on the burner. Install
burner and tighten nuts securely.

In Scotch type boilers, the refractory should extend past the tube sheet a minimum of 2” to 2-1/2” (see Figure 2-
10). In Firebox boilers, the refractory oven should be flush or set back as shown in Figure 2-9. The outside cir-
cumference of the refractory oven must be protected.

Packing Plastic Refractory Around Oven:

9. The area between the outside circumference of the dry oven and existing refractory should be packed with
Kaiser Refractory Mono T-9 AirSet or equal within two hours after coating the dry oven with Trowleze. Ram
the plastic refractory from front to rear, parallel to the outside surface of the dry oven.

IC-993 (revised 2010) 2-7

M/Series Manual
 Installation

NOTE: The burner support should be long enough to allow the burner to be withdrawn from the heating vessel.

2.6 — Compressor Module

The MM, MMG 63, all ME, and all MEG burners use a compressor module, which must be separately mounted
and piped.

The compressor module should be accessible and within close proximity of the burner. Piping from the compres-
sor module consists of an atomizing air line to the drawer assembly, and a lube oil line to and from the burner
cooling coil.

2.7 — Gas Piping

Gas service and house piping must supply the quantity of gas demanded by the unit at the pressure required at
the burner gas train inlet.

All piping must be in strict accordance with applicable codes, ordinances and regulations of the supplying utility.
In the absence of other codes, piping should be in accordance with the following standards:

“National fuel Gas Code” NFPA No. 54, ANSI No. Z223-1.

Gas train components upstream of the butterfly valve are shipped loose. These components should be mounted
by the installer as close to the butterfly valve as practical. Normally, the control train is ordered to suit a particu-
lar code or insurance regulation, such as Underwriters Laboratories, Inc., Factory Mutual, or Industrial Risk
Insurance. Arrange gas piping at the burner so that the burner is accessible for servicing without disassembly.

The gas pilot supply line must be connected upstream of the main gas regulator. If a reducing bushing is required
between the house piping and the burner piping, it should be close to the burner shutoff valve.

The gas piping must be internally clean and free of foreign material. Before using in service, a leak test must be
performed.

2.8 — Fuel Oil Piping

2.8.1 — Air Atomizing Systems

MM, MMG, ME, and MEG models use air atomization. These burners use a separately driven burner mounted oil
metering unit, requiring oil supplied to the burner at 10 to 15 psi on MM and MMG models and up to 20 psi on
ME and MEG models. Since the scope of this manual is limited to burner installation, operation, and mainte-
nance, pipe sizing is not covered in detail. Please consult factory for more information.

2.8.2 — Circulating Oil Pump

A circulating pump is required to deliver fuel oil from the storage tank to the burner at a minimum of 150% of
the maximum burner firing rate. The excess oil allows a margin for piping error, viscosity changes in the fuel oil,

2-8 IC-993 (revised 2010)

M/Series Manual
2.9 — Installation Checklist

and circulating pump wear. Correct pipe sizing is determined by circulating rate, not burner capacity. Install the
pump as close to the supply tanks as possible. Suction lift should be as low as possible, and the pump suction
line as short as possible. Maximum suction of 15” Hg vacuum is good practice for either light or heated heavy
oil. The strainer should be installed in the suction line just ahead of the circulating pump to prevent foreign mate-
rial from entering the pump. Locate the strainer so that it may be easily cleaned.

2.8.3 — Oil Loop Heaters

Heating may be necessary to facilitate pumping and atomization.

The nozzle line heater supplied with MM, ME, MMG, and MEG burners is for startup purposes only. This heater
cannot heat the fuel oil for proper burning at fuel firing rate. The proper oil temperature is that which gives the
best results with the particular oil being fired. This may vary widely with different fuels in different firing systems.

Residual oil viscosity can vary widely within grade limits and is not always within the specified limits for the
grade. Fuel viscosity requirements for air atomizing burners are not critical. Under typical circumstances a viscos-
ity of 100 SSU might be optimum, but good results may be obtained up to 150 SSU. There is no advantage to
less than 100 SSU.

Where the burning characteristics of the fuel are unknown, the following may be considered as typical:

No. 4 80º - 125º F

No. 5L 115º - 160º F

No. 5H 145º - 180º F

No. 6 180º - 220º F

2.9 — Installation Checklist

All burners are carefully assembled and tested at the factory, but before being placed in service all connectors
should be checked again for looseness caused during shipment. Check:

a) Electrical terminals in the control panel and on all electrical components.

b) Piping fittings and unions.
c) Tubing connections.
d) Nuts, bolts, screws.

Check Area
Before operating pumps, metering heads, and compressors, make certain that reservoirs are properly
filled with the specified lubricant. Open all necessary oil shutoff valves. Do not run compressors, pump, or
metering units without oil.
Before connecting electrical current to any component, be sure the supply voltage is the same as that
specified on the component nameplate.
Before burner operation, be sure all motors are rotating in the proper direction.

IC-993 (revised 2010) 2-9

M/Series Manual
 Installation

Check Area
Before firing, make sure that the refractory flame cone is properly sealed to the burner mounting flange
and the boiler front plate.
Make certain that the operator in charge is properly instructed in operation and maintenance procedures.

! Caution
Lubrication oil is drained from the air oil tank before shipment. Before attempting to start the burner, add oil to the
recommended level.

! Caution
The burner refractory cone is air-cured only. Heat-curing must be initiated at initial startup. Run the burner at low-fire
for a period of 6 to 8 hours before starting to gradually increase the firing rate. Failure to do so will result in damage
and cracks in the refractory.

CHAPTER 3 Operation

3.1 — Preparation for Initial Startup

All Fuels
When the installation is complete and all electrical, fuel, water, and vent stack connections are made, make cer-
tain these connections are tight. The operator should become familiar with the burner, boiler controls, and com-
ponents. Adjustment procedures given in Chapter 4 should be revised prior to firing. The wiring diagram should
also be studied along with the operating sequence of the burner programmer.

Read and understand starting instructions before attempting to operate the burner. Before attempting to start the
following checks must be made:

Area 5
Boiler Check thee boiler water level. Be sure all boiler valves are installed correctly and positioned properly. Set
the high limit control slightly above the operating control. Set the operating control at the desired temper-
ature or pressure.
Burner Check the electrical power supply to the burner in accordance with the nameplate voltage on all motors
and the control circuit.
Check motor rotation by momentarily closing the starter or relay. Blower impeller rotation is clockwise
when viewed from the back of the burner. Air compressor and metering unit rotation is clockwise when
viewed from its drive end. Open the housing and check the electrode setting.
For protection in shipment, the flame safeguard control chassis is shipped unmounted. Check all screw
connections before attaching flame the safeguard chassis to the base. The screw must be secure to assure
low resistance connections. The relay chassis is mounted on the subbase with a screw which, when tight-
ened, completes the connection between the subbase and chassis contacts. Press the manual reset but-
ton to be sure the safety switch contacts are closed.
Check the control linkage for proper movement of the air volume damper and fuel metering components.
This can be done by loosening the linkage at the actuator level and manipulating by hand.
Check the air shutter and adjust the low-fire setting.

IC-993 (revised 2010) 3-1

M/Series Manual
 Operation

3.2 — Firing Preparations for Gas Burners

A representative of the gas utility should turn on the gas. Determine by a test gauge upstream of the burner reg-
ulator that sufficient pressure exists at the entrance to the gas train. The gas pressure regulator must be adjusted
to the pressure required and the pressure setting recorded.

On combination fuel models, set the selector switch to gas. On initial startup it is recommended that the main
gas shutoff cock remain closed until the programmer has cycled through pre-purge and the pilot sequences to
determine that the main gas valve opens. Turn the burner switch “OFF” and let the programmer finish its cycle.
Check to see that the gas valve closes tightly.

On burners equipped with high and low gas pressure switches, set switch pressure actuating levels and record
settings for future service reference.

When the conditions covered above and in Chapter 2 are assured, the burner is ready for firing. Refer to Section
3.5 for starting and operating information.

3.3 — Firing Preparations for Oil Burners

Prior to initial firing, oil flow pressure and temperature should be verified.

On MM and ME models, inspect the lube oil sump level. Add oil to bring the oil level to the midpoint or slightly
higher in the reservoir sight glass.

Check the oil level in the compressor air intake strainer. Make certain that the drive belts or couplings are aligned
and properly adjusted.

To verify air flow and pressure, momentarily flip the switch “ON” and immediately turn it “OFF.” The programmer
will continue through its cycle, however, without ignition or energizing the fuel valves. Observe the air pressure
gauge. With the compressor running and no oil flow, the pressure should be approximately 10 psi. The sche-
matic flow diagrams, Figure 1-8 and Figure 1-9, indicates the flow of fuel and atomizing air.

If the burner is a dual fuel model, make certain that the main gas shutoff cock is closed and the fuel selector
switch is set to “OIL.”

3.3.1 — Oil Flow

Light Oil (refer to Figure 2-13)

Open all valves in the oil suction and return line. The burner oil metering units are not capable of creating suc-
tion. Fuel oil must be supplied to the metering unit at a nominal 10 to 15 psi pressure by a circulating supply
pump.

Heavy Oil (refer to Figure 2-14 and Figure 2-15)

Note the bypass valve between the supply and return lines. At initial system startup or after prolonged shutdown,
start the system as follows:

3-2 IC-993 (revised 2010)

M/Series Manual
3.3 — Firing Preparations for Oil Burners

1. A vacuum (or compound pressure-vacuum) gauge should be installed in the oil suction line, and its reading
noted. This gauge indicates the tightness of the suction system.

NOTE: See directions for “Oil Temperature” as outlined in Section 3.3. Those preparations must be accomplished
simultaneously during oil flow and pressure establishment.
2. Open valve No. 1 in the bypass line and close valve No. 2 in the supply line to the metering pump.
3. Turn on the pre-heater and the circulating pump. Oil will circulate from the tank through the circulating pump
and pre-heater, returning to the tank through the bypass and return lines. Observe the oil supply pressure
gauge for indication that oil flow is established. If no pressure shows after a few moments, and the vacuum
gauge shows little or no suction, stop the circulating pump and re-prime. Heavy oil in the storage tank must
be warm enough to permit flow.
4. As the system becomes warm, the pressure required for circulation will gradually drop. When the return is
warm, open No. 2 valve and throttle the flow in the bypass line with valve No. 1. This will cause the oil to
flow through the back pressure valve to the tank via the return line. The pressure in this loop around the
burner should not exceed 20 psi (15 psi on MM models). When the loop around the burner becomes warm,
gradually close valve No. 1 in the bypass line. All supply oil will then flow through the burner loop.

3.3.2 — Oil Pressure

The system pressure is regulated by the back pressure valve. This should be set between 10 to 15 psi on MM
models, and between 12 to 20 psi on ME models, at the burner inlet after the temperature stabilizes.

3.3.3 — Oil Temperature

Heavy oil flow and burning characteristics are dependent on oil viscosity, which in turn requires temperature reg-
ulation. A loop heater in the supply line between the circulating pump and the burner heats the oil. The loop
heater should be adjusted to give the designed operating temperature. Where the burning characteristics of the
fuel are unknown, the following my be considered as typical:

No. 4 80º - 125º F

No. 5L 115º - 160º F
No. 5H 145º - 180º F
No. 6 180º - 220º F

NOTE: Fuel oil of any grade may vary necessitating a higher or lower temperature. The best viscosity of the oil at the
nozzle is usually 100-150 SSU. The best temperature of the oil at the burner is determined by flame characteristics
and combustion results.

If conditions do not permit the loop heater to develop the required temperature, the nozzle line heater on the
burner should be depended upon only to raise the oil to the atomizing temperature during the initial low-fire start.

The nozzle line heater is intended to supply heated oil at a rate no greater than that required for low-fire. In nom-
inal operation the nozzle line thermostat is set lower than the loop oil temperature, so that nozzle line heating is
not required except during a cold start.

When the conditions covered above and in Section 3.1 are assured, the burner is ready for firing. Refer to Section
3.5 for starting and operating information.

 Operation

3.4 — Sequence of Operation

The programming control sequences the operation of all controls and components through the starting, ignition,
firing, and shutdown cycle. The burner and control system are in starting condition when:

a) The operating and high limit control (temperature or pressure) are below their cutoff setting.
b) All power supply switches are closed.
c) Power is present at the control panel.

Refer to the manufacturer’s literature on programming controls and burner wiring diagrams for detailed informa-
tion.

3.5 — Startup and Operating

3.5.1 — Gas Burners

1. Close the main and pilot gas cocks. Make sure the “ON-OFF” switch is in the “OFF” position and the fuel
selector switch is set to “GAS.’
2. Actuate the manual reset button of the flame safeguard control to close the safety switch contacts.

3. Set the “MANUAL-AUTO” switch to the “MANUAL” position.

4. Set the manual potentiometer in the low-fire position.

5. Open the gas pilot cock.

6. Set the “ON-OFF” switch to “ON.” The burner will start and pre-purge. After pre-purge, the ignition trans-
former and the gas pilot solenoid are energized. Before proceeding, conduct electrical interference and pilot
turndown tests if not previously done (refer to Sections 4.3 and 4.4).
7. On initial startup it is recommended that the main gas shutoff cock remain closed until the programmer has
cycled through pre-purge and pilot sequence. Then determine that the main gas valve opens. When this is
confirmed, turn the burner switch “OFF” and let the programmer finish its cycle. Check to see that the gas
valve has closed tightly. If ignition does not occur, turn the burner switch “OFF” and allow the programmer to
recycle for a new ignition trial.
8. Turn the burner “ON.” The main gas valve will be energized after pilot ignition, when the flame relay pulls in.

9. Slowly open the downstream manual shutoff gas cock. The main flame should ignite at this time. The gas
valve and air damper continue advancing until high-fire is reached.
10. Do not repeat unsuccessful light off attempts without rechecking burner and pilot adjustment. Vent fuel
vapors from the combustion chamber after each unsuccessful light off attempt.
11. Set the gas low-fire rate by adjusting the butterfly valve and air linkage. When low-fire is adjusted, shut the
burner down. Restart several times to be sure the low-fire setting is suitable. Readjust if necessary. Never start
the burner with fuel vapor in the furnace. In case of an emergency, open the main power switches and close
all fuel valves.
12. After combustion adjustments settings are acceptable, allow the heating vessel to slowly reach normal operat-
ing pressure or temperature.
13. Turn the potentiometer switch to the high-fire position. Check high-fire at this point using combustion instru-
ments. Do not disturb established low-fire adjustment.
14. Allow the burner to return to low-fire position before adjusting high or intermediate settings.

High-fire combustion analysis is typically 9% to 10.5% CO2. When conditions covered above are assured, refer
to Sections 3.6 and 3.7.

3.5.2 — Oil Burners

1. Set the fuel selector switch to “OIL.” On initial startup of a combination burner, it is recommended that oil fir-
ing be adjusted before gas firing. Gas low-firing rate is set to match the oil low-fire rate.
2. Set the “ON-OFF” switch to the “OFF” position and the fuel selector switch to “OIL.”
3. Actuate the manual reset button of the flame safeguard control to close the safety switch contacts. Be sure the
“MANUAL-AUTO” switch is in the “MANUAL” position.
4. Set the manual modulating control potentiometer to the “LO” fire position. Open the pilot gas valve (if used).
5. Set the “ON-OFF” switch to “ON.” The burner will start and pre-purge.After pre-purge, the ignition transformer
and gas pilot (if used) are energized. Before proceeding, conduct electrical interference and pilot turndown
tests if not previously done (refer to Sections 4.3 and 4.4).
6. Observe the primary air pressure gauge on the air/oil tank. The gauge reading should be approximately 10 psi
during pre-purge.
7. When the pilot flame is proven, the programmer will proceed to the main flame position. Allow the burner to
operate in low-fire, to warm the boiler before moving to high-fire.Typically, for No. 2 through No. 4 oil, CO2 is
8% to 11%, and No. 5 and No. 6 oil is 8% to 13% at low-fire.
8. Turn the manual potentiometer switch to the high-fire position. Check high-fire combustion at this point. Do
not disturb previously established low-fire adjustment.
9. Allow the burner to return to the low-fire position before adjusting high or intermediate settings. The primary
atomizing air pressure will increase automatically with the oil flow rate. Typically, for No. 2 through No. 4 oil,
CO2 is 10% to 13%, and No. 5 and No. 6 oil is 11% to 15% at high-fire.

When conditions covered above are assured, refer to Sections 3.6 and 3.7.

3.6 — Normal Operation

Normal operation must be with the “MANUAL-AUTO” switch selector set to “AUTO.”

In automatic operation, the operating cycle always proceeds sequentially through pre-purge, pilot ignition, main
flame ignition, run, and post-purge. The length of purge and ignition trial vary according to the type of program-
mer used.

During the run cycle, burner input is regulated to the load demands by the modulating pressure or temperature
control on the boiler. The burner will continue to modulate until the operating pressure or temperature is reached.

Programmer control operation should be tested when the burner is initially placed into service, when a control is
replaced, and at scheduled intervals in the maintenance program. Refer to adjustment procedures and mainte-
nance instructions given in Chapters 4 and 5.

 Operation

3.7 — Shutdown
When the operating limit control setting is reached or the burner switch is turned “OFF,” the following sequence
occurs:

The fuel valve(s) de-energizes and flame extinguishes. The blower motor continues running during post-purge.

At the end of the post-purge, the blower motor is de-energized. The programmer returns to its starting position
and stops. The unit is ready to restart.

Abnormal shutdown might result from motor overload, flame outage, low water, current or fuel supply interrup-
tion. combustion or atomizing air pressure below minimum level, tripped circuit breakers, blown fuses, or other
interlock devices. Check for the cause and correct the situation before restarting the burner.

Safety shutdown caused by ignition or flame failure will actuate a red indicator light and energize an audible
alarm (if so equipped). If the programmer has a non-recycling interlock circuit, any interruption in this circuit
during the pre-purge or firing cycle will cause a safety shutdown. This type of shutdown requires manual reset of
the programming control and must be corrected before operation can be resumed.

3.8 — Extended Shutdown

When shutting down the burner for an extended period of time, the operator should use the following general
guidelines to protect the burner from its surrounding elements. This will add to the operating life of the burner.
1. Turn the main electrical disconnect switch to the burner to “OFF.”
2. Close all main fuel valves.
3. If the burner operates in a damp environment, cover it with plastic to protect all electrical components from
moisture. Remove the flame safeguard control and store it in a dry atmosphere.

CHAPTER 4 Adjustments

4.1 — Overview
While each burner is tested at the factory for correct operation before shipment, variable conditions such as
burning characteristics of the fuel used and operating load conditions may require further adjustment after instal-
lation to assure maximum operating efficiency.

Prior to placing the boiler into initial service, a complete inspection should be made of all controls, connecting
piping, wiring, and all fastenings such as nuts, bolts, and setscrews to be sure that no damage or misadjust-
ments occurred during shipping and installation.

A combustion efficiency analysis made during the initial startup will help to determine what additional adjust-
ments are required in a particular installation.
NOTE: When residual oils are used, make fire adjustments after fuel reaches proper temperature.

4.2 — Combustion Adjustment on Gas and Oil

Efficient combustion cannot be properly judged by flame appearance, although it may help in making preliminary
settings.

The proper settings of air-fuel ratios must be determined by flue gas analysis. Combustion gas analysis indicates
the air to fuel ratio and the degree of complete combustion. Instruments are available to measure carbon dioxide
(CO2), oxygen (O2), and carbon monoxide (CO).

4.2.1 — Stack Temperature

Net stack temperature is obtained by subtracting the ambient temperature from the flue gas temperature. A high
net stack temperature indicates wasted heat. Stack temperature should be as low as possible without causing
flue gas condensation.

Stack heat loss can be reduced by decreasing either the temperature or the volume of the flue gas, or both. Flue
gas temperature is reduced by improving heat transfer or by reducing excess combustion air. A certain amount of
excess air is necessary to complete combustion. More efficient burners require minimum excess air.

IC-993 (revised 2010) 4-1

M/Series Manual
 Adjustments

4.2.2 — Smoke Measurement

Smoke measurements can be made using a variety of different methods. The standards will vary somewhat
according to the equipment used, and instructions accompanying the instrument should be followed.

Smoky combustion can result from: improper air delivery, insufficient draft, improper fuel viscosity, improper
fuel-air ratio, excessive air leaks in the combustion chamber, or improper fuel oil temperature.

4.2.3 — Gas Adjustments

Low fire combustion analysis typically is 7% to 9% CO2 and less than .04% CO (400 ppm). High-fire reading
typically is 9% to 10.5% CO2 and less than .04% CO.

4.2.4 — Fuel Oil Adjustments

Adjust for a “clean fire.” Typically for No. 2 through No. 4 oil, CO2 is 8% to 11% at low-fire and 10% to 13% at
high-fire. For No. 5 and No. 6 oil, CO2 is 8% to 13% at low-fire and 11% to 15% at high-fire.
NOTE: Some conditions may make it impossible to attain accurate combustion analysis. Air infiltration through the
boiler at any point will dilute flue gas.

4.3 — Electrical Interference Test

Prior to putting the burner into service, conduct the following test to ascertain that ignition spark will not cause
the flame relay to pull in.

4.3.1 — Gas Fired

1. Close the pilot and main line manual gas valves.
2. Start the burner and at time of pilot trial with just the electrical ignition system energized - the flame relay
should not pull in.
3. Upon completion of a successful test, proceed with startup.

4.3.2 — Oil Fired

1. Disconnect the electrical power to the burner.
2. Disconnect the electric oil safety shutoff valve.
3. Reconnect electric power.
4. Close the pilot line manual gas valve, if used.
5. Start the burner and at the time of the pilot trial, with just the electrical ignition system energized, the flame
relay should not pull in.
6. Upon completion of a successful test, disconnect the power supply. Reconnect oil safety shutoff valve and
turn on the manual pilot gas valve.
7. Reconnect the power supply and proceed with startup.

4-2 IC-993 (revised 2010)

M/Series Manual
4.4 — Gas System

4.4 — Gas System

4.4.1 — Gas Pressure

Gas must be supplied at a pressure high enough to overcome the pressure loss in the burner gas train and fur-
nace pressure while running at full input. Refer to the nameplate inside the control panel for gas pressure require-
ments at train inlet and manifold. The pressures listed are based on normal 1000 Btu/cu ft natural gas at
elevations up to 2000 feet above sea level.

4.4.2 — Gas Flow

The volume of gas is measured in cubic feet as determined by a meter reading. The gas flow rate required
depends on the heating value (Btu/cu ft). The supplying utility can provide this information as well as pressure
correction factors. To determine the required number of cubic feet per hour of gas, divide the burner input (Btu/
hr) by the heating value (Btu/cu ft).
NOTE: When checking the input rate, Make sure no other equipment is operating on the same meter.

4.4.3 — Gas Pilot Flame Adjustment

The gas is regulated by adjusting the pressure setting of the pilot regulator. Normal setting is 3” to 6” WC when
the pilot is burning. The flame must be sufficient to be proven by the flame detector and ignite the main flame.
Although it is possible to visibly adjust the size of the pilot flame, obtain a proper DC volt or microamp reading of
the flame signal.

The flame safeguard amplifier has a meter jack for this purpose. At initial startup and during planned mainte-
nance, test the pilot flame signal, pilot turndown, and safety switch lockout.

! Warning
An ultra-violet flame sensor electrical spark interference test must be performed after final adjustment. See Section
4.3 in this chapter for additional information.

4.4.4 — Main Gas Pressure Regulator

The gas pressure required at the burner manifold is the pressure that is required to fire the burner at its rated
capacity. The gas pressure regulator must be adjusted to achieve this pressure at full input. Refer to manufac-
turer’s literature for regulator adjustment.

4.4.5 — Low Gas Pressure Switch (28-105)

Turn the adjusting screw until the indicator moves to a pressure setting slightly below the maximum operating
gas pressure. The control will break a circuit if pressure is below this value. The control should be adjusted pre-
vent operation with excessive gas pressure, but not at a pressure so close to normal operating pressure that
unnecessary shutdowns occur. This switch must be manually reset after tripping. To reset, allow the gas pressure
to drop and press the manual reset button.

4.4.6 — High Gas Pressure Switch (28-105)

Turn the adjusting screw until the indicator moves to a pressure setting slightly above the maximum operating
gas pressure. The control will break a circuit if pressure exceeds this value. The control should be adjusted to
prevent operation with excessive gas pressure, but not at a pressure so close to normal operating pressure that

IC-993 (revised 2010) 4-3

M/Series Manual
 Adjustments

unnecessary shutdowns occur. This switch must be manually reset after tripping. To reset, allow the gas pressure
to drop and press the manual reset button.

4.4.7 — Gas Combustion Adjustment

After operating for a sufficient period of time to assure a warm boiler, make adjustments for most efficient com-
bustion. The butterfly gas valve directly controls the rate of flow. The low-fire light-off setting should be regarded
as preliminary until proper gas pressure for high-fire operation is established.

Determine the actual gas flow from a meter reading at high-fire. With the butterfly valve open, and with regu-
lated gas pressure set, the actual flow rate should be quite close to the required input. If corrections are neces-
sary, increase or decrease the gas pressure by adjusting the gas pressure regulator, following the manufacturer's
directions for regulator adjustment.

When proper gas flow is obtained, take a flue gas analysis reading.

With the high-fire air-fuel ratio established, the gas pressure regulator needs no further adjusting.

Recheck low-fire and adjust if necessary.

Proper setting of the air/fuel ratios at all rates must be determined by combustion analysis.

4.5 — Oil System

4.5.1 — Oil Metering Unit

Fuel oil supply to the integral metering unit must be 10 to 15 psi on separate metering units. The oil spray
should ignite as soon as the oil solenoid valve opens. If the oil spray fails to ignite, move the metering unit
adjustment lever a few degrees counterclockwise. This increases the amount of oil at low-fire and makes ignition
easier. It will also increase the oil on high-fire, so this must be checked later.

Once adjusted, the pump should operate with a minimum amount of adjustment. If a burner failure is caused by
the oil metering pump, check the following:
1. See that the oil tanks contain oil.
2. Make sure all oil valves between the burner and the tank are open and that the suction line is not air bound.
3. Ensure that the low-fire setting has not been disturbed.
4. Make sure there is pressure at the integral metering unit, but it is not to exceed 15 psi (20 psi on separate
metering unit).
5. See that the pump turns freely.
6. Check for a clogged strainer at the suction side of the circulating pump.
7. Check for a dirty burner strainer.
8. Check for a plugged or carboned nozzle. This will show up as excessive primary air pressure.
9. Make sure the oil bypass valve is not bypassing the metered fuel oil.

Internal wear of the pump may take place due to the presence of dirt in the oil and in time this will result in
excessive clearances which reduces the pump capacity.

4-4 IC-993 (revised 2010)

M/Series Manual
4.5 — Oil System

If the oil metering pump fails to deliver capacity or meters erratically, replace the oil and air pump as a unit and
return the oil pump for repair or exchange (where allowed).

4.5.2 — Atomizing Air Pressure

Atomizing air in the air/oil tank is regulated by adjusting the valve in the return air line on integral metering units
or in the air inlet on air compressor module burners. The air pressure is indicated by the pressure gauge at the
air/oil tank.

A minimum of 10 psi air pressure in low-fire is suggested. As the firing rate increases, the air pressure also
increases. Air pressure will be less with light oils.

If any change in atomizing air pressure is made, check the ignition several times for reliable light off. Adjustments
should be set to obtain reliable ignition with best low- and high-fire combustion results.

If the required atomizing air pressure cannot be maintained, a lack of lubricating oil may be the cause or the
intake filter may be dirty.

4.5.3 — Atomizing Air Proving Switch

The knurled nut between the switch and bellows is turned in to raise the pressure setting. The minimum amount
of atomizing air is during pre- and post-purge. During pre-purge, adjust the switch until it breaks the circuit.
Readjust the switch above this circuit break point to actuate under a condition of minimum pressure, but not so
close as to cause nuisance shutdowns.

4.5.4 — Nozzle Line Heater

NOTE: Be sure the manifold is filled with oil prior to startup.
1. Remove the cover which encloses the thermostat and interlock switch. The pointer controls the thermostat
setting. The knurled knob controls the cold oil interlock switch.
2. The thermostat pointer should be set at position 6 and then raised or lowered as required. Higher numbers
indicate higher temperatures.
3.Let the unit run before making further adjustments.
The thermostat governing the nozzle line heater ele-
ment is set lower than the thermostat governing the
oil heater in the circulating loop. The nozzle line
heater operates only during cold starts.
4.The cold oil interlock switch is controlled by the
small brass knurled knob under the pointer. This is set
to prevent the burner from starting until proper oil
temperature is attained. Set below the oil thermostat
setting. If the cold oil interlock is set higher than the
oil temperature, the burner will not run.
5.Replace the cover.

 Adjustments

4.6 — Combustion Air System

The damper has multiple blades and regulates the combustion air volume (see Figure 4-2). Normally, the upper
damper blade will be closed and the lower blade will be slightly open in low-fire. As the burner advances toward
high-fire, the adjustable stops on the damper rod open the intermediate blade, then the upper blades in
sequence. Adjust intermediate combustion air volume by relocating these stops.

The blades are closed by return springs, except the lower blade, which moves with the modulating motor.

For low-fire, the lower blade position is set by the length of the damper linkage rod for best pilot operation. The
low-fire damper should be set as low as practical, 1/4” approximate opening. The damper must be in the proper
low-fire position for reliable ignition.

FIGURE 4-2. Air Damper Blades

4.7 — Modulating Motor

The modulating motor, through a linkage arrangement, positions the air damper, the butterfly gas valve, or
metering unit to maintain proper air-fuel ratio throughout the firing range.

The motor is controlled by either a temperature or pressure actuated modulating control. Normal operation is
with the “HI-LO” switch in “HI” position or “MANUAL-AUTO” switch in the “AUTO” position. A manually oper-
ated potentiometer may be provided to position the motor at a fixed firing rate for initial adjustment, or subse-
quent checking.

During normal operation, the motor moves in either direction or stops at any position within a 90º range to follow
load demand.

4-6 IC-993 (revised 2010)

M/Series Manual
4.8 — Linkage Adjustments

If a modulating motor is replaced, verify the 90º stroke before installing.

The flame safeguard programmer holds the modulating motor in low-fire during ignition and until the main flame
is established. A low-fire switch, integral to the motor or damper mounted, is actuated by the rotation of the
motor. This switch must be closed to probe that the damper and fuel metering units are in low-fire position before
ignition. During this time, neither a manual potentiometer nor modulating control have any effect on the damper
motor.

Some burners have a second integral switch to prove the motor has driven the damper to an open position during
pre-purge. This switch closes at the high-fire position to allow continuation of the programming cycle.

Refer to the manufacturer’s literature for adjusting the modulating motor switch.

4.8 — Linkage Adjustments

The linkage consists of levers, rods, and ball joints that transmit motion from the modulating motor to the air
damper, gas butterfly valve, and oil metering unit.

When properly adjusted, coordinated movement of the air and fuel control devices provide proper fuel/air ratios
through the firing range. In linkage adjustments, several important factors serve as guides:
• The modulating motor must be able to complete its full travel range. Restrictions will damage the motor and/
or the linkage.
• All adjustments should be made with the motor in fully closed position, that is with the shaft on the power
end of the motor in its most counterclockwise position.
• Over-travel linkage, where used, should not extend tis spring more than 1/4”.

! Caution
The modulating motor will be stopped at the end of its stroke by an integral limit switch and must not be installed by
the damper, metering valve, or fuel units. Do not turn the motor shaft by hand or with a wrench. Settings are adjusted
by the length of the linkage rods, length of lever arms, and the angular positions of the levers on the shafts.

The most rapid rod travel occurs when the lever is perpendicular to the rod. The closer the rod comes to being
parallel with the lever, the slower the rod moves.

The angles of the driven levers on the jackshaft can be adjusted to vary the rate of change. The closer the rod is
to the hub of the lever, the less distance it will travel. Increasing the lever length on the damper, metering unit,
and valve(s) decreases the flow rate.

 Adjustments

FIGURE 4-3. Fuel-Air Linkage Adjustments

4.8.1 — Cam Trim (Fine Tuning the Modulating Cam)

After low- and high-fire adjustments are complete for efficient operation, final adjustment is made to the cam
assembly to obtain a constant air/fuel ratio throughout the entire firing range.
NOTE: The cam profile spring should match the cam quadrant at this time.

The input of combustion air is fixed at any given point in the modulating cycle. The fuel input may be varied to
obtain correct flue gas readings.

The adjustment is made to the metering cam by means of the 14 adjusting screws which are turned in (clock-
wise from the hex-socket end) to increase the flow of fuel, and out (counterclockwise from the hex-socket end) to
decrease the flow. Flow rate is lowest when the cam follower is closest to the jackshaft. A 3/32” hex key is
required.
NOTE: It will be necessary to cut off the short end of a hex key to approximately 3/8” to adjust the first two socket
head setscrews at the low-fire position.

Through the manual modulating control, position the roller guide over each of the setscrews starting with high-
fire and working down to low-fire. Make a combustion analysis at each of these setscrew points. Adjustment can
be made without cycling the burner. Recheck combustion analysis until the desired result is obtained. Recheck
the modulating cycle to assure satisfactory results.

! Warning
Any cover plates, enclosures, or guards anchored to the burner, or any burner related equipment, must remain in
position at all times. Only during maintenance and service shutdown can these cover plates, enclosures, or guards be
removed. They must be replaced and securely anchored before testing, adjusting, or running the burner or burner
related equipment.

! Caution
It is important that you provide support for the housing when in the open position to prevent damage to the hinges
and subsequent components.

5.1 — Introduction
A maintenance program avoids unnecessary downtime, costly repairs, and promotes safety. It is recommended
that a record be maintained of daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly maintenance activities.

Electrical and mechanical devices require systematic and periodic inspection and maintenance. Any “automatic”
feature does not relieve the operator from responsibility, but rather free him from certain repetitive chores, provid-
ing time for upkeep and maintenance.

Unusual noise, improper gauge reading, leak, sign of overheating, etc., can indicate a developing malfunction,
requiring corrective action.

IC-993 (revised 2010) 5-1

M/Series Manual
 Maintenance

5.2 — Control System

Most operating controls require very little maintenance beyond regular inspection. Examine electrical connec-
tions. Keep the controls clean. Remove any dust from the interior of the control. Covers should be left on controls
at all times. Keep the control cabinet doors closed. Dust and dirt can damage motor starters and relay contacts.
Starter contacts are plated with silver and are not harmed by discoloration. Never use files or abrasive materials
such as sandpaper on contact points.

5.2.1 — Programming Control

This control requires no adjustment, nor should any attempt be made to alter contact settings or timing logic.
Those programmers with contacts may require occasional cleaning. If so, follow instructions given in the manu-
facturer’s bulletin. Never use abrasive materials. The manufacturer’s bulletin also contains troubleshooting infor-
mation. The flame detector lens should be cleaned as often as conditions demand. A periodic safety check
procedure should be established to test the complete safeguard system. Tests should verify safety shutdown with
a safety lockout upon failure to ignite the pilot or the main flame, and upon loss of flame. Each of these condi-
tions should be checked on a scheduled basis. The safety check procedures are contained in the manufacturer’s
bulletin.

! Caution
When replacing a control or cleaning contacts, be sure to open the main power supply switch since the control is
“hot” even though the burner switch is “OFF.” More than one disconnect switch may be required to disconnect all
power.

5.2.2 — Combustion Air Impeller

The method of retaining the fabricated impeller on the motor shaft has been revised. This change took effect
starting with burner serial number A1918.

Two setscrews directly over the key replaces the

retaining bolt with washers on the end of the
motor shaft and the single setscrew. Spacers are
used to maintain the clearance between the
motor mounting bolts and impeller which also
maintains the correct overlap on the air inlet
cone (see Figure 5-1).

NOTE: An impeller puller tool, part number 632-1856, is available for removing the fabricated impeller.

5.4 — Gas System

5.4.1 — Motorized Main Gas Valves

Should the valve fail to operate, check for voltage at the valve. Make certain that the main shutoff cock is closed
prior to testing. The actuator is not field repairable nor should it be disassembled. Replace the actuator if the
valve fails to operate. After replacement, cycle the valve with the fuel shutoff to determine that it opens and
closes. If the valve has a visual indicator, observe its position for correct operation.
NOTE: All power must be disconnected before servicing the valves.

5.4.2 — Solenoid Valves

A slight hum from the solenoid is normal when the coil is energized. Should the valve fail to operate, check that
there is voltage at the valve coil. If there is no voltage at the coil, check for loose wiring connections. If there is
proper voltage at the valve coil and the valve still fails to open, replace the coil. Refer to the manufacturer’s bul-
letin for correct coil replacement procedure.

Should it become necessary to replace the complete valve, be sure that the flow is in the direction of the arrow
on the body.

Test for gas leaks and check the valve action several times to ensure proper operation before attempting to re-
light the burner.

5.5 — Oil System

5.5.1 — Oil Metering Unit

The oil metering unit is a precisely built unit. Internal wear due to dirt in the oil can occur and may in time result
in reduced capacity. If burner failure appears to be caused by the metering unit, check the following:
• See that the oil level in both the fuel oil tank and air-oil tank.
• Make sure all valves between the fuel oil tank and the burner are open.
• Be sure the oil suction line is not air bound and check the suction line strainer to see that it is not plugged.
• Check the low-fire setting of the metering pump to be sure it is properly set.
• Make sure the pump turns.
• Inspect for a clogged nozzle.

When an oil metering pump is proven faulty, order a replacement unit and return the old pump for repair or
exchange (where allowed). Do not disassemble.

M/Series Manual
 Maintenance

5.5.2 — Nozzle Line Heater

Nozzle line heaters damaged by water accumulation do not qualify for warranty or exchange service. Failure to
prevent water accumulation inside the heater manifold constitutes improper care.

Completely drain the heater manifold periodically. This should be part of the preventive maintenance program.
Maintenance consists primarily of removing the heating element from the manifold and scraping any accumula-
tion of carbonized oil or sludge deposits from the heat exchange surfaces.

Before breaking electrical connections to the heating elements, mark all wires and terminals to assure correct
replacement of wires.

Periodic cleaning is necessary to prevent overheating or burnout of the elements. If operation of the heater
becomes sluggish, examine the elements and clean as required.

Inspect the manifold each time the heater is removed. flush all accumulated sludge and sediment before rein-
stalling the heater. The heater must be full of oil before power is turned on.

5.5.3 — Air Compressor

The air compressor itself requires little maintenance, however, its life is dependent upon sufficient clean, cool
lubricating oil. The oil level in the air-oil tank must be checked regularly. Lack of oil will damage the compressor.
Disassembly or field repairs to the air compressor are not recommended.

5.5.4 — Lubricating Oil

Lubricating oil must be visible in the sight gauge at all times. The oil level should be maintained midway in the
sight gauge. SAE 20 non-detergent oil is recommended in a normal operating environment. SAE 30 non-deter-
gent oil should be used in a high temperature environment, and SAE 10 non-detergent oil in a low temperature
environment. Name brands known to perform satisfactorily include Havoline (Texaco), Mobil Oil (Mobil), Shell
X100 and Permalube (American).

Adding oil is accomplished through the fill pipe on the side of the air-oil tank. The compressor (burner) must be
shut off during filling.

! Caution
Never add lube oil through the air inlet to the compressor. The lubricating oil should be changed every 2000 hours or
annually. The lube oil filter (part number 843-106) should be replaced every 2000 hours or annually.

5.5.5 — Air-Oil Tank

A wire mesh filter is used in this tank to separate the lube oil from the compressed air. Figure 5-2 shows the tank
and location of the filter.

This filter is very important and should be replaced if dirty. To replace the filter:
1. Turn the burner off.
2. Remove the air piping from the cap.
3. Remove the cap.
4. Remove the filter and wash it thoroughly in kerosene or replace with a new filter.

5-4 IC-993 (revised 2010)

5. Flush the tank.

6. Insert the filter.
7. Reinstall the cap and reconnect the piping.

FIGURE 5-2. Air-Oil Tank Filter

5.5.6 — Oil Level Sight Gauge

The oil level sight gauge can be cleaned by removing it from the air-oil tank and soaking it in a detergent solution.
If cleaning the gauge proves unsatisfactory, replace it.

5.5.7 — Compressor Inlet Oil Strainer (Lube Oil Strainer)

The lube oil strainer prevents foreign materials from entering the compressor. The strainer screen must be
cleaned at regular intervals.

The screen is easily removed for cleaning by unscrewing the bottom plug. Immerse the screen in solvent and
thoroughly clean.

5.5.8 — Air Cleaner

Never operate the compressor without the air cleaner in place. The cleaner should be cleaned at regular inter-
vals. The correct oil level must be maintained in the air cleaner. Use the same oil used for air compressor lubrica-
tion.

5.5.9 — Lube Oil Cooling Coil

The fins on the tubing must be kept clean and free of dust and dirt.

 Maintenance

5.5.10 — Motor
Keep the motor clean. Motor lubrication should follow manufacturer’s recommendations. Check the coupling/
sheave alignment frequently and replace the coupling insert/belt as required. Keep cover plate or belt guard in
place.

! Caution
The maintenance intervals on the compressor module components are affected by the environment in which the
equipment is placed. The “regular intervals” or “as required” maintenance requirements may be daily, weekly, or
monthly, depending on the environment and the operating time of the equipment. Follow the preventive maintenance
schedule shown in Section 5.10 or develop a maintenance program exclusively for the equipment.

5.5.11 — Sheave Alignment and Belt Tightening

ME, MEG. Alignment of the compressor and motor sheaves and proper belt tension are important. Figure 5-3
shows how to check parallel alignment of the sheaves.

Belt tension is adjusted according to the displacement on the belt with thumb pressure. This displacement
should be 3/8” to 1/2”.

To adjust, loosen the two bolts on the compressor mounting flange and the three setscrews which hold the com-
pressor in place.

The mounting flange is slotted at the top, which permits belt tightening. If the slot in the mounting flange is
insufficient for obtaining proper belt tension, the modular base has two extra holes for this purpose.

5.6 — Burner Head

The burner head can be serviced through the throat of the blast tube on all models by opening the “swing way”
air handling section. The procedure for service and inspection of the burner head on models 14-105 burners
through the blast tube is as follows:

FIGURE 5-4. Burner Head

1. Shut off the burner, set switch in the “OFF” position.

2. Shut off electric power to the burner.
3. Disconnect the damper linkage, air proving switch tubing, and remove the nut from the latch on the air han-
dling section.
4. Swing the air handling section open for access to the firing head.
5. An access opening to the burner head is available by disconnecting the fuel and airlines on the removable
cover assembly located on the side of the burner blast tube. An indicator and arrow show the position of the
nozzle to the diffuser. Make sure to note this position and reassemble the cover with the same adjustment.
6. Remove wing nuts on the cover and pullout drawer assembly.

5.6.1 — Pilot, Ignition Electrode and Ignition Cable

The gas pilot and ignition electrode are held in place by a close fitting support tube in the diffuser. The gas pilot
slides into the support tube in the diffuser. The gas pilot slides into the support tube. The gas piping to the pilot
holds the assembly in place.

To remove the pilot assembly, loosen the flare nut fitting at the pilot or at the housing connection. Disconnect the
ignition cable. Slide the pilot assembly out of the support tube and remove from the burner.

Refer to Figure 5-5 for electrode adjustments. Defective or cracked porcelain requires replacement. A gradual
wearing away of the electrode tip(s) may require they be re-spaced or replaced. Thoroughly clean and adjust the
porcelain insulated electrodes. Correct all variations from the clearance dimensions.

IC-993 (revised 2010) 5-7

M/Series Manual
 Maintenance

If the insulation on the high voltage cables becomes cracked or charred, install new cables. Ignition cable should
not be exposed to moisture, abrasion, or rough handling. See that the connectors are in proper contact with the
cable ends. Unscrewing the snap portion of the connector will show whether this is true.

FIGURE 5-5. Electrode Adjustment

5.6.2 — Air Atomizing Nozzles

If the burner flame becomes stringy or lazy, it is possible that the nozzle is clogged. This problem is usually indi-
cated by an abnormally high reading on the atomizing air pressure gauge on the air-oil tank. to clean the nozzle
tip and swirler, unscrew the tip from the nozzle body. Use care not to distort the tip. Disassemble the nozzle tip.

Carefully clean all parts in solvent. Never use wire or sharp metal tools to clean the nozzle orifice. Use a sharply
pointed piece of soft wood. A metal tool will distort the orifice and ruin the nozzle. Reassemble the nozzle.

To ensure proper atomizing, the tip must be screwed in tightly with the swirler seating spring pressing the swirler
tight against the nozzle tip.

5.6.3 — Flame Scanner

The scanner must be clean. Even a small amount of contamination will reduce the flame signal. Wipe the scan-
ner lens with a clean soft cloth.

5.6.4 — Diffuser
The diffuser is factory set and does not require attention under normal operating conditions. If fouled with car-
bon, the diffuser should be removed for cleaning. Remove the electrode and scanner leads, the gas pilot assem-
bly, air and oil tubes, and the nozzle support assembly.

Before removing the three screws holding the diffuser to the blast tube, scribe a line on the edge of the diffuser
so that the exact location can be made at the time of reassembly. Clean all carbon from the diffuser vanes and
re-install the parts in reverse order of the disassembly.

5.7 — Burner Mounting Inspection

The seal between the burner flange and furnace front plate must not permit combustion gases to escape. Peri-
odic inspection is important. If leakage occurs, refer to Chapter 2, Section 2.4 for proper sealing procedure.

5.8 — Oil Strainers

5.8 — Oil Strainers

Oil strainers should be cleaned frequently to maintain a free and full flow of fuel. The strainer screen must be
removed and cleaned at regular intervals. The screen should be removed and cleaned thoroughly by immersing it
in solvent and blowing it dry with compressed air. Light oil strainers should be cleaned each month. Heavy oil
strainers should be checked and cleaned as often as the experience indicates the necessity.

CHAPTER 6 Troubleshooting

! Warning
Troubleshooting should be performed only by personnel who are familiar with the equipment and who have read and
understood the contents of this manual. Failure to follow these instructions could result in serious personal injury or
death.

! Warning
Disconnect and lockout the main power supply in order to avoid the hazard of electrical shock. Failure to follow these
instructions could result in serious personal injury or death.

6.1 — Awareness
Chapter 6 assumes that:
• The unit in question has been properly installed and that it has been running for some time.
• The operator has become thoroughly familiar with both the burner and the manual by this time.

The points set forth under each heading are brief, possible causes, suggestions, or clues to simplify locating the
source of the trouble. Methods of correcting the trouble, once it has been identified, may be found elsewhere in
this manual.

If the burner will not start or operate properly, the Troubleshooting section should be referred to for assistance in
pinpointing problems that may not be readily apparent.

The program relay has the capability to self-diagnose and to display a code or message that indicates the failure
condition. Refer to the control bulletin for specifics and suggested remedies.

IC-993 (revised 2010) 6-1

M/Series Manual
 Troubleshooting

Familiarity with the programmer and other controls in the system may be obtained by studying the contents of
this manual. Knowledge of the system and its controls will make troubleshooting that much easier. Costly down-
time or delays can be prevented by systematic checks of actual operation against the normal sequence to deter-
mine the stage at which performance deviates from normal. By following a set routine may possibly eliminate
overlooking an obvious condition, often one that is relatively simple to correct.

If an obvious condition is not apparent, check each continuity of each circuit with a voltmeter or test lamp. Each
circuit can be checked and the fault isolated and corrected. In most cases, circuit checking can be accomplished
between appropriate terminals on the terminal boards in the control cabinet or entrance box. Refer to the wiring
schematic supplied for terminal identification.

! Caution
Never attempt to circumvent any of the safety features.

! Warning
The cause for loss of flame or any other unusual condition should be investigated and corrected before attempting to
restart. Failure to do so may result in serious personal injury or death.

! Warning
Do not repeat unsuccessful lighting attempts without rechecking the burner and pilot adjustments. Failure to do so
may result in serious personal injury or death.

! Warning
Do not re-light the pilot or attempt to start the main burner, either oil or gas, if the combustion chamber is hot and/or
if gas or oil vapor combustion gases are present in the furnace or flue passages or when excess oil has accumulated.
Promptly correct any conditions causing leakage. Failure to do so may result in serious personal injury or death.

6.2 — Emergency Shutdown

In case of emergency, shut down the burner by turning the “ON-OFF” switch to the “OFF” position. Turn the fuel
selector switch to the “OFF” position. Shut off the main manual fuel shutoff valves on the fuel supply line. The
unit can also be shut down with the main electrical power disconnect. Inspect the burner carefully and trouble-
shoot before restarting the unit. Follow the instructions in Chapter 3 for starting and operating.

Warranty Policy
Limited Warranty: The Company warrants that at the time of shipment the equipment manufactured by it shall
be merchantable, free from defects in material and workmanship, and shall possess the characteristics repre-
sented in writing by the Company. The Company’s warranty is conditioned upon the equipment being properly
installed and maintained and operated within the equipment’s capacity under normal load conditions with com-
petent supervised operators. Equipment, accessories, and other parts and components not manufactured by the
Company are warranted only to the extent of and by the original manufacturer’s warranty to the Company. In no
event shall such other manufacturer’s warranty create any more extensive warranty obligations of the Company
to the Buyer than the Company’s warranty covering equipment manufactured by the Company.

Exclusions From Warranty: (I) The foregoing is in lieu of all other warranties, oral or express or implied, including
any warranties that extend beyond the description of the equipment. There are no express warranties other than
those contained herein to the extent permitted by the law. There are no implied warranties of fitness for a partic-
ular purpose. The provisions as to duration, warranty adjustment, and limitation of liability shall be the same for
both implied warranties (if any) and expressed warranties.

(II) The Company’s warranty is solely as stated the above paragraph and does not apply or extend, for example,
to:
•expendable items
•ordinary wear and tear
•altered units
•units repaired by persons not expressly approved by the Company
•materials not of the Company’s manufacture
•damage caused by accident, the elements, abuse, misuse, temporary heat, overloading, or by erosive or cor-
rosive substances
•alien presence of oil, grease, scale, deposits, or other contaminants in the equipment

Warranty Adjustment: Buyer must make claim of any breach of any warranty by written notice to the Company’s
home office within thirty (30) days of the discovery of any defect. The Company agrees at its option to repair or
replace, BUT NOT INSTALL, F.O.B. Company’s plant, any part or parts of the equipment which within twelve
(12) months from the date of initial operation but no more than eighteen (18) months from date of shipment
shall prove the Company’s satisfaction (including return to the Company’s plant, transportation prepaid, for
inspection, if required by the Company) to be defective within the above warranty. Any warranty adjustments
made by the Company shall not extend the initial warranty period set forth above. Expenses incurred by Buyer in
replacing or repairing or returning the equipment or any part or parts will not be reimbursed by the Company.

Spare and Replacement Parts Warranty Adjustment: The Company sells spare and replacement parts. This sub-
paragraph (7.4) is the warranty adjustment for such parts. Buyer must make claim of any breach of any spare or
replacement parts by written notice to the Company’s home office within thirty (30) days of the discovery of any
alleged defect for all such parts manufactured by the Company. The Company agrees at its option to repair or
replace, BUT NOT INSTALL, F.O.B. Company’s plant, any part or parts or material it manufactures which, within
one (1) year from the date of shipment shall prove to Company’s satisfaction (including return to the Company’s
plant, transportation prepaid, for inspection, if required by the Company) to be defective within this past war-
ranty. The warranty and warranty period for spare and replacement parts not manufactured by the company (pur-

IC-993 (revised 2010)

M/Series Manual
chased by the Company, from third party suppliers) shall be limited to the warranty and warranty adjustment
extended to the Company by the original manufacturer of such parts. In no event shall such other manufacturer’s
warranty create any more extensive warranty obligations of the Company to the Buyer for such parts than the
Company’s warranty adjustment covering parts manufactured by the Company as set forth in this subparagraph.
Expenses incurred by Buyer in replacing or repairing or returning the spare or replacement parts will not be reim-
bursed by the Company.

Limitation of Liability: The above warranty adjustment set forth Buyer’s exclusive remedy and the extent of the
Company’s liability for breach of implied (if any) and express warranties, representations, instructions or defects
from any cause in connection with the sale or use of the equipment. THE COMPANY SHALL NOT BE LIABLE
FOR ANY SPECIAL, INDIRECT OR CONSEQENTIAL DAMAGES OR FOR LOSS, DAMAGE OR EXPENSE,
DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING FROM THE USE OF THE EQUIPMENT OR FROM ANY OTHER CAUSE
WHETHER BASED ON WARRANTY (EXPRESS OR IMPLIED) OR TORT OR CONTRACT, and regardless of any
advice or recommendations that may have been rendered concerning the purchase, installation, or use of the
equipment.
