• Connect each fancoil or thaw/cure loop, in turn, one
at a time, in the same manner as above. When all are
connected and the pressure gauge maintains steady
pressure, the system is charged and ready for use.
• Check the HTF level again and top up if necessary 1/4
to 1/2 full).
5.4 Oil Burner Installation and Setup
(Fig. 3)
• Specific burner settings for the FireBird HD308 are as
follows.
6. Operation
6.1 Startup
• Make sure the FireBird HD308 is connected to a
correct, stable power source (120V, 20A, 60Hz, 3-wire
grounding) and proper gauge chords are used (12
gauge minimum).
• Verify adequate and correct fuel supply for the burner
(#1 or #2 light oil or diesel). Open all valves in the
fuel-supply lines.
• Make sure at least one circuit of HTF hose is
connected to the FireBird HD308 to provide adequate
circulation to trigger the flow switch (see hose and
accessory connections section).
• At the control panel (Fig. 8), remove 2 thumb screws
to open and expose the inner panel (Fig. 9), turn ON
the three breakers located behind the light panel (Fig.
16). Close and refasten the panel.
• Turn ON the main power switch (Fig. 11). The white
unit power light (Fig. 15) will come on, as well as the
two digital temperature gauges and hour meter (Fig.
14).
• Turn ON the pump switch (Fig. 12) and check the
pump pressure gauge (Fig. 25). Steady pressure
around (30 to 35 PSI), indicates that no air remains in
the fluid circuit.
• Once a stable pump pressure is achieved, turn ON the
burner switch (Fig. 13). The following sequence should
now occur: Observe the LED light cluster (Fig. 15).
-
The glycol level light will turn on (indicating that
there is a sufficient amount of HTF in the system).
-
The glycol flow light will turn on (indicating that
there is enough flow for the system to operate).
-
The high temp limit light will turn on. (This
indicates that the high limit safety switch has not
broken the circuit).
-
The high pressure switch light will turn on. (This
indicates that the blocked flue high pressure
safety switch has not broken the circuit).
-
A few seconds later, the stat light will come on
and the burner fan will purge the combustion
chamber for a few seconds.
-
The burner should light following the pre-purge. If
air is still present in the fuel lines, the burner may
not light and lock out. It might be necessary to
push the red reset button on the burner module 2
or 3 times until fuel reaches the burner head and
ignition takes place.
• Make sure the operator (Fig. 10) is set at the desired
temperature. DO NOT operate at temperatures above
200ºF, or damage to inline controls and certain
accessory components can result. To adjust setpoint
on this control just use the up and down key. There
is no need to go into the menu of the control to
perform this function. The control simultaneously
displays setpoint temperature and actual supply fluid
temperature.
• Once the setpoint temperature has been reached, the
burner will cycle off and on as needed.
5.2 Shutdown
• Turn OFF the burner switch (Fig. 13). The burner will no
longer recycle but the circulation pump will continue to
run.
• It is recommended that the fluid be allowed to
continue circulating until it has cooled down to 100ºF
(38ºC) or lower.
• Turn OFF the pump switch (Fig. 12). If any fancoils
and hoses have been placed at a higher elevation
than the FireBird HD308, the primary hoses should be
immediately disconnected from the FireBird HD308
(Fig. 28). This will prevent fluid from draining back and
overflowing at the HTF reservoir vent (Fig. 32).
• Turn OFF the main power switch (Fig. 11).
• Turn OFF fuel supply valves.
• If the system is to be de-commissioned, it is now safe
to disconnect the power supply, and all HTF circulation
hoses, manifolds and accessories.
