BURNER
MODEL MSR-DC SPECIFICATIONS
INSTALLATION OF BURNER
INSTALLATION OF THE BURNER MUST BE DONE BY A QUALIFIED INSTALLER IN ACCORDANCE WITH REGULATIONS OF THE NATION-
AL FIRE PROTECTION STANDARD FOR OIL-BURNING EQUIPMENT, NFPA NO. 31, AND IN COMPLETE ACCORDANCE WITH ALL LOCAL
CODES AND AUTHORITIES HAVING JURISDICTION.
A QUALIFIED INSTALLER IS THE PERSON WHO IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE INSTALLATION AND ADJUSTMENT OF THE EQUIPMENT
AND WHO IS LICENSED TO INSTALL OIL-BURNING EQUIPMENT IN ACCORDANCE WITH ALL CODES AND ORDINANCES. WARRANTY
IS VOIDED IF NOT INSTALLED BY SERVICE PERSON.
THESE INSTRUCTIONS SHOULD BE AFFIXED TO THE BURNER
OR ADJACENT TO THE HEATING APPLIANCE.
FIRING CAPACITIES - MODEL MSR-DC
0.50 To 2.75 GALLONS PER HOUR
70,000 TO 385,000 BTU/HR INPUT
FUELS - MODEL MSR-DC
Use No. 1 or No. 2 Heating Oil (ASTM D-396), Kerosene, Diesel or Jp8 Jet Fuel.
NEVER attempt to use gasoline as a fuel for your burner, as it is more combustible and could result in a seri-
ous explosion.
NEVER burn garbage or refuse in the heating unit.
NEVER try to ignite by tossing burning paper or other materials into the heating unit.
NEVER burn waste or crankcase oil in the heating unit.

DC OIL BURNER ELECTRICAL CONSIDERATIONS
* Not all generators are equally capable. A minimum of 13.0 volts must be provided at the battery.
* Generators should be operated at the maximum rated RPM during burner operation.
* Good quality batteries are strongly suggested. Batteries with higher Cold Cranking Amp (CCA) rating and deep
draw/marine type batteries are recommended.
* Use automotive rated battery cabling. All other wiring should be OEM suggested wire type and gauge.
* Protect all wiring connection points with dielectric grease.
* Ambient temperature impacts electrical requirements. Higher temperatures will result in higher amp draws.
* Increased pump operating pressure settings will increase amp draw.
* Higher gallon rate nozzles and accompanying wider air band openings will increase amp draw.
