INSPECTING

 

BURNERS

Check pilot flame pattern and burner patterns 

PILOT FLAME PATTERN

Figure  17  shows  a  correct  pilot  ame  pattern. 
Figure 18 shows an incorrect pilot 

 pattern. 

The  incorrect  pilot  flame  is  not  touching  the 
thermocouple. This will cause the thermocouple 
to cool. When the thermocouple cools, the heater 

will shut down.

If  pilot  ame  pattern  is  incorrect,  as  shown  in

Note:

  The  pilot 

  on  natural  gas  units  will 

have a slight curve, but 

 should be blue and 

have no yellow or orange color.

Periodically inspect all burner  ame holes with the 
heater running. All slotted burner  ame holes should 
be open with yellow  ame present. All round burner 

ame holes should be open with a small blue  ame 

present.  Some  burner  ame  holes  may  become 
blocked by debris or rust, with no  ame present. If 
so, turn off heater and let cool. Remove blockage. 
Blocked burner  ame holes will create soot.
