Technical description of the burner
4.7.1 Firing rate on basis of air density
The firing rate of the burner shown in the manual is valid for a
room temperature of 20°C and an altitude of 0m above sea level
(barometric pressure around 1013 mbar).
It may be that a burner has to operate with combustive air at a
higher temperature and/or higher altitudes.
The heating of the air and the increase in altitude produce the
same effect: the expansion of the air volume (i.e. the reduction of
its density).
The delivery of the burner fan remains essentially the same, but
the oxygen per m
3
of air, and the thrust (discharge head) of the
fan are reduced.
It is therefore important to know if the maximum output requested
from the burner at a determinate combustion chamber pressure
remains within the firing rate of the burner even with the changed
temperature and altitude conditions.
To check it, proceed as follows:
1
find the corrective factor F (relating to the air temperature
and altitude of the system) in the Tab. F.
2 Divide the output Q required from the burner by F to obtain
the equivalent output Qe:
3 In the firing rate of the burner, mark the work point identified
by:
Qe = equivalent output
H1 = pressure in combustion chamber
point A that must remain within the firing rate.
4 Trace a vertical line from point A)(Fig. 3), and find the maxi-
mum pressure H2 of the firing rate.
5 Multiply H2 by F to obtain the maximum lowered pressure
H3 of the firing rate:
If H3 is greater than H1)(Fig. 3), the burner can produce the de-
livery requested.
If H3 is less than H1, it is necessary to reduce the output of the
burner. The reduction in output is accompanied by a reduction in
the combustion chamber pressure:
Qr =
reduced output
H1r = reduced pressure
Example
, 5% reduction in output:
Qr = Q x 0,95
H1r = H1 x (0,95)
2
With the new values - Qr and H1r - repeat steps 2 - 5.

WARNING
The combustion head should be adjusted in rela-
tion to the equivalent output Qe.
