WARNING
The burners covered in this Guide are designed to
mix fuel with air and burn the resulting mixture. All
fuel burning devices are capable of producing ex-
plosions and fires when improperly applied, in-
stalled, adjusted, controlled, or maintained. This
Guide will provide information for using these burn-
ers for their limited design purpose. Do not deviate
from any instructions or application limits in this
Guide without written advice from the Eclipse Com-
bustion Division in Rockford, Illinois. Read this en-
tire Guide before attempting to light burners. If you
do not understand any part of the information in this
Guide, contact your local Eclipse representative or
Eclipse Combustion before proceeding further.
Important Notices About Safe Burner Operation
l. Store the burner inside. Exposure to the elements can
damage the burner.
2. Adjustment, maintenance, and troubleshooting of the
mechanical parts of this unit should be done by people
with good mechanical aptitude and experience with com-
bustion equipment.
3. Order replacement parts from Eclipse Combustion
only. Any customer-supplied valves or switches should
carry UL, FM , CSA, and/or CGA approval where appli-
cable.
4. The best safety precaution is an alert and competent
operator. Thoroughly instruct new operators so they
demonstrate an adequate understanding of the equip-
ment and its operation. Regular retraining must be
scheduled to maintain a high degree of proficiency. The
operator must have easy access to this Information Guide
at all times.
• Easy to install and operate.
• Rugged construction for long life in
industrial environments.
• Protection against overheating from
residual oven heat.
• Electronic flame monitoring.
• Two automatic gas shut-off valves.
• Air flow proving switch.
• 100% factory tested and adjusted.
5.0 Trouble-Shooting
Trouble shooting of electrical circuits should be done by qualified plant electricians, tech-
nicians, or engineers experienced in all facets of this type of combustion equipment.
CAUTION
Info 280
10/93
1. On initial start-up, gas line may be filled with air. Repeat ignition
trial several times to purge.
2. No power to ignition transformer or pilot solenoid.
3. Open circuit between ignition transformer and spark plug.
4. Spark plug is dirty or improperly installed.
5. Pilot gas cock screw closed.
6. Insufficient gas pressure at valve train inlet.
1. Pilot set too lean, blows out as main flame comes on.
2. Insufficient gas pressure at valve train inlet.
3. Gas flow misadjusted. See Section 4.0.
1. Burner internals loose, dirty or burned out. If any of these problems
exist, contact your Eclipse representative or the Eclipse factory for
service.
1. Gas flow is misadjusted. See Section 4.0.
2. Air shutter is closed too far.
1. Gas flow is misadjusted. See Section 4.0.
2. Air shutter is open too far.
POSSIBLE CAUSE
PROBLEM
Pilot fails to light.
Main flame is too short at
high fire.
Main flame is too long and
yellow on high fire.
Burner behaves erratically,
does not respond to adjust-
ment.
Main flame fails to light.
6.0 Maintenance
6.1 Motor Lubrication
Oil the blower motor according to the manufac-
turer’s instructions as printed on the motor label.
6.2 UV Scanner Maintenance
Periodically clean the UV scanner lens as described
in the manufacturer’s product literature.
6.3 Ignition Plug and Flame Rod Replacement
Ignition plugs and flame rods wear out over long
periods of normal burner operation. Eclipse recom-
mends that the user keep at least one of each in stock
at all times to prevent nuisance shutdowns.
See Figure 7 for proper ignition plug installation.
