Eclipse RatioMatic Burners, RM Series, V5, Installation Guide 110, 12/3/2014

5. If burner goes out due to main gas flame failure, turn

bias adjusting screw 

 a half turn clockwise to

increase gas flow. Repeat ignition sequence until
burner lights.

6. Flame signal strength: adjust gas flow with bias

adjusting screw 

 for lowest gas flow that maintains

a stable flame signal:

• clockwise, for more fuel
• counterclockwise, for less fuel

7. Verify low fire flame:

a. Drive control motor from low fire and back. Verify 

low fire and stable flame signal are repeated.

b. Turn the burner off and repeat the ignition 

sequence. Verify low flow and stable flame signal 

are repeated.

Bypass Start Gas with High Turndown Option

Figure 4.16. Ratio Regulator with 

Internal Bypass Adjusting Screw

1. Verify bias adjusting screw 

 on ratio regulator spring

column in six full clockwise turns (360° x 6) down from
the top (initial setting).

2. Open all manual shut off valves.
3. Close internal bypass adjusting screw 

 by turning it

clockwise to closed position.

4. Set system control to stay at low fire during and after

ignition sequence.

5. Ignite the burner.
6. If burner goes out due to main gas flame failure, turn

bias adjusting screw 

 a half turn clockwise to

increase gas flow. Repeat ignition sequence until
burner lights.

7. Slowly decrease gas flow with bias adjusting screw 

.

Decrease gas flow until the flame signal becomes
erratic. (Refer to flame monitoring relay literature for a
description of an erratic flame signal.)

8. If burner has gone out, repeat ignition sequence. Turn

internal bypass adjusting screw 

 a half turn

counterclockwise to increase gas flow at each attempt
until burner lights.

9. Flame signal strength, adjust gas flow with internal

bypass adjusting screw 

 for lowest gas flow that

maintains a stable flame signal:

• counterclockwise, for more fuel
• clockwise, for less fuel

10. Verify low fire flame:

a. Drive the control motor from low fire and back. 

Verify low fire and stable flame signal are 

repeated.

b. Turn the burner off and repeat the ignition 

sequence. Verify low fire and stable flame signal 

are repeated.

Step 5: Verify Air Settings (RM0050-RM0700 

only)

NOTE:

 There are no high fire gas adjustments or air

adjustments when firing into a neutral chamber. However,
air and gas pressures can be used to verify the burner
system is properly adjusted.

Figure 4.17. Setting Verification

1. With burner lit, drive control motor to high fire.
2. Wait for the chamber to reach normal operating

conditions (e.g. chamber temperature, process flows,
etc.).

3. Measure high fire fuel differential pressure between

tap “B” and tap “D”.  this to the “Fuel Orifice 

P vs.

Input” graph on the datasheet.

4. Measure high fire air differential pressure between tap

“C” and the chamber. Compare this pressure to the
“Air 

P vs. Air Flow” graph on the datasheet.

5. Drive the control motor to low fire and verify low fire

flame signal and flame appearance (if viewing).
