Natural Gas Combustion Calibration –
Continued
13. Compare the oxygen readings on the combustion analyzer to the on-board O
2
sensor
value displayed in the
Operating
menu of the C-More Control Panel. If the values differ by
more than ±1.5% and your combustion analyzer is correctly calibrated, the on-board O
2
sensor may be defective and need to be replaced.
14. Compare the measured oxygen level to the oxygen range shown below. Also, ensure that
the nitrogen oxide (NOx) and carbon monoxide (CO) readings do not exceed the values
shown. If you are not in a “NOx-limited” area and/or do not have a NOx measurement in
your analyzer, set the oxygen (O
2
) at
5.5% ± 0.5%
.
Table 4-2:
Combustion Calibration Readings – 100% Valve Position

<100 ppm
15. If the oxygen level is not within the required tolerance, the gas pressure on the
downstream side of the SSOV must be adjusted using the gas pressure adjustment
screw on the SSOV (Figure 4-3). Slowly rotate the gas pressure adjustment
(approximately 1/4-turn increments). Allow the combustion analyzer to stabilize following
each adjustment. Clockwise rotation reduces the oxygen level, while counterclockwise
rotation increases the oxygen level.
16. Once the oxygen level is within the specified range at 100%, record the O
2
, NOx and CO
readings on the Combustion Calibration Data Sheets provided with the unit.
17. Lower the valve position to
80%
using the ▼arrow key.
NOTE
The remaining combustion calibration steps are performed using
the
Combustion Cal
menu
included in the C-More Control System.
The combustion calibration control functions will be used to adjust
the oxygen level (%) at valve positions of 80%, 60%, 45%, 30%
and 18% as described in the following steps. These steps assume
that the
inlet air temperature is within the range of 50°F to
100°F (10
°C
to 37.8
°C)
. If NOx readings exceed the target values
shown, increase the O
2
level up to 1% higher than the listed
calibration range. Record the increased O
2
value on the
Combustion Calibration sheet.
18. Press the
MENU
key on the front panel of the C-More and access the
Setup
menu. Enter
password
6817
and then press the
ENTER
key.
19. Press the
MENU
key on the front panel of the C-More until
Combustion Cal Menu
appears on the display.
20.
Press the Up ▲ arrow key until the
SET
Stdby V Out (Standby Voltage)
setting appears.
Verify that it is set to
2.0 V
(the default). AERCO recommends it be kept at 2.0 volts to
prevent flue gas recirculation.
21.
Press the ▲ arrow key until
SET Valve Position
appears on the display.
22. Press the
CHANGE
key.
SET Valve Position
will begin to flash.
23.
Press the ▲ arrow key until the
SET Valve Position
reads
80%
. Press the
ENTER
key.
24.
Next, press the down (▼) arrow key until
CAL Voltage 80%
is displayed.
