Install the burner with a 2° pitch as shown.
❏
Verify firing rate
• Refer to appliance manufacturer’s instructions (if avail-
able) for firing rate and nozzle selection. Otherwise, the
maximum recommended firing rate for the burner depends
on the length of the firing chamber and the distance from
the burner center to the chamber floor. Verify that the cham-
ber dimensions are at least as large as the minimum values
given in
Figure 1
. If the appliance dimensions are smaller
than recommended, reduce the firing rate accordingly.
❏
Verify air tube
• The information in this section may be disregarded if the
air tube is supplied by the appliance manufacturer.
• The following tube arrangements are available:
Model CF2500A
: Tube
KP
— 17.0 to 19.9 GPH
Model CF2500
:
Tube
KP
— 17.0 to 25.0 GPH
Model CF3500A
: Tube
KM
— 17.0 to 35.0 GPH
or
Tube
KR
— 17.0 to 35.0 GPH
• Maximum firing capacity depends on the firebox pressure.
Use
Table 2
to verify the correct air tube type for the firing
rate required. (Tube
KR
[
CF3500A
] is an optional air tube
combination for maximum capacity rate. It requires a larger
I.D. flange No. 51631.)
• See
Figure 2
to verify the correct air tube length and air
tube combination code.
