5.  Install main burners by reversing procedure to 

remove burners.

a.  Pilot burner must be installed in original 

location. See Table 10.

b.  Main burners must be properly secured in burner 

tray slot at rear of combustion chamber and over 
gas orifi ce with hitch pin in place. See Figure 25.

c.  Burner access panel must be securely in place.

d.  Verify that Combustion Air Diffuser is securely 

in place.

e.  If Flame Roll-out Switch wires were 

disconnected, they must be reconnected.

f.  Air Intake Box Cover must be installed.

G.

 Check operation.

 Follow steps C through L from 

Section VIII: System Start-up.

H.

 

Procedure for Measuring Fan Differential Pressure.

 

(See Figure 27).

1.  With boiler off, remove gray and black hoses at 

differential pressure switch.

2.  With tees, connect water manometer as shown with 

additional tubing.

3.  Start boiler and read pressure on manometer when 

boiler water temperature reaches operating 
temperature.  Refer to Table 11 for minimum 
readings.

 

NOTE:  If switch drops-out before boiler reaches 
temperature or if differential pressure readings are 
below minimums shown in Table 11, check for 
cracks in hoses or contact your nearest Burnham 
representative.

4.  Stop boiler, remove manometer and reconnect hoses 

to pressure switch.  See Figure 26.

I. 

Lubrication

 

There are no parts requiring lubrication on the part of 
the Service Technician or the User.  Circulator bearings 
are water lubricated.  Combustion blower motor uses 
sealed bearings.  

See Figure 9.  Disconnect  vent connector and vent 
pipe from blower outlet.

3.  Remove Jacket Top Panels.

4.  Disconnect Red and Black Silicone Tubing from 

Canopy.  Pull tubing through Blower Access panel 
into vestibule.

5.  Disconnect  wiring harness from Blower Motor.

6. Remove Canopy/Blower Assembly.

a.  Remove four (4) machine screws securing 

canopy to heat exchanger.

b. Remove ceramic fi ber gasketing from top of heat 

exchanger.

c.  Pry canopy from boiler sections.

7. Inspect fl ue passages.  Clean with fl ue brush.  See 

Figure 25.

8.  Inspect heating surface in combustion chamber.  

Clean with straight handle wire brush.

9.  Replace Canopy/Blower Assembly and seal using 

ceramic fi ber gasketing.  Refer to Key No. 2  in 
Repair Parts Section for quantity and part number.

10. Connect Silicone Tubing between Pressure Fittings  

  on Canopy Assembly and Pressure Switch.  See  
 Figure 26.

11. Install Jacket Top Panels.

12. Connect vent system.  See Figure 9.

13. Connect Blower Motor Wiring Harness.

F

.  Main Burners and Combustion Chamber.

1.  Vacuum combustion chamber.  Exercise care - do 

not damage base insulation.

2.  Clean main burners. Brush top of  burners with soft 

bristle brush. See Figure 25. Vacuum to remove any 
dirt and lint.

3.  Vacuum tip of pilot burner.

4.  Check gas orifi ces for lint and dirt. Clean as 

necessary.
