  • Page 8: Combustion Flighting

    Page 8 MS-9 F. COMBUSTION FLIGHTING Flight design in the combustion zone is very important. Correct flighting can minimize pollutant emissions, and provide heat shielding to keep the drum surface temperature down. To obtain complete combustion, the combustion zone must be sized to provide enough combustion volume for the flame to burn, and it should also be clear of veiling material that can quench the flame, resulting in poor combustion efficiency.
  • Page 9: Fuel Manifold Installation

    Page 9 MS-9 3. The standard nose burner is supplied with a split-mounting companion flange that can be bolted onto the dryer breech plate (see Table 4), and is an option for the long nose version. This allows positioning the burner at various insertion depths past the breech plate. Typical burner insertion depth is 18 to 24"...
  • Page 10: Natural Gas Fuel Piping System

    Page 10 MS-9 I. NATURAL GAS FUEL PIPING SYSTEM NOTE Eclipse recommends the use of gas manifolds that meet NFPA guidelines. NFPA requires two fuel safety shutoff valves wired in series and a shutoff valve downstream of the second (blocking) safety shutoff valve, and high and low pressure switches that are interlocked with the burner's safety shutoff valves.
  • Page 11 Page 11 MS-9 equipment isolation valve facilitates servicing of the gas control regulator, sediment trap, strainer, and other components in the gas manifold. 3. The gas company should purge the main gas line to remove scale and dirt before it is attached to the burner gas manifold.

  • Page 17 Page 17 MS-9 NOTE Eclipse recommends the use of oil manifolds that meet NFPA guidelines. NFPA requires two safety shutoff valves piped in series in the burner’s main oil line. A low/high oil pressure switch must be interlocked with the burner’s safety shutoff valves. When preheated oil is used, a low/high oil temperature limit switch must be interlocked with the burner’s safety shutoff valves.
  • Page 18 Page 18 MS-9 NOTE Fuel oil flow settings per the individual burner performance sheets are for initial set-up only. Final settings may have to be readjusted for required operation. 8. Fuel oil flow rates can be checked with the in-line oil flow meter on the burner fuel oil manifold.
  • Page 19: Oil Manifold Heat Tracing

    Page 19 MS-9 L. OIL MANIFOLD HEAT TRACING For heavy, waste, or recycled oil applications, the oil manifold piping must be heat traced and insulated to maintain the desired temperature, and hence, viscosity, of the fuel oil (see Figure 7). The heat tracing installed on the heavy oil manifold will aid in viscosity control and reliable main flame ignition of the burner.
  • Page 20 Page 20 MS-9 V7867 (NOT TO SCALE) Figure 8. Heavy Oil Insert Heater NOTE 120V/60Hz power for the heavy oil insert heater must be supplied separately by the customer and wired into the heater junction box. Operation of the heavy oil insert kit is as follows (see Figure 8): 1.
  • Page 21: Fuel Oil Nozzle

    Page 21 MS-9 N. FUEL OIL NOZZLE The position of the fuel oil atomizer affects its ability to atomize the oil. The compressed air atomizer or low pressure atomizer should be positioned as shown in Figure 9. CAUTION Ensure that the correct atomizer W7868 is being used when firing oil.
  • Page 22: Compressed Air/Oil Atomizer

    Page 22 MS-9 O. COMPRESSED AIR/OIL ATOMIZER The Hauck high pressure oil nozzle is designed to finely atomize No. 2 fuel oil and clean preheated No. 4, No. 5 and No. 6 fuel oil. Oil viscosity should be 90 SSU (1.8 x 10 /sec) or less.

  • Page 24 Page 24 MS-9 IMPORTANT For all heavy fuel oil applications, i.e., any oil requiring heating for use, oil piping must be heat traced (electric or steam) and insulated. Self-regulating heat tracing is recommended to maintain the desired temperature of a given fuel oil to achieve 90 SSU (1.8 x /sec) or less at the burner.

  • Page 27: Liquid Propane (Lp) Fuel Piping System

    Page 27 MS-9 P. LIQUID PROPANE (LP) FUEL PIPING SYSTEM WARNING Adjustment of this equipment and its components by unqualified personnel can result in fire, explosion, severe personal injury, or even death. LP is highly flammable and heavier than air. It will accumulate near the ground in the area of a leak and will dissipate relatively slowly.
  • Page 28 Page 28 MS-9 X7869 (NOT TO SCALE) Figure 13. Typical Schematic of LP Piping NOTE The LP piping system shown in Figure 13 is designed for optimum performance at ambient air temperatures above 40 F (5°C). For operation in ambient temperatures below 40 F, consult Eclipse for recommendations.
  • Page 29 Page 29 MS-9 WARNING Frost or icing is an indication of an LP leak. It is possible for a leak to occur without such evidence. Although the LP supply is initially in a liquid state, as it is vaporized it becomes heavier than air and accumulates near the ground and dissipates relatively slowly, becoming highly flammable.
  • Page 30 Page 30 MS-9 g. The low/high LP pressure switch is factory set at a low set point of 165 psig (1140 kPa) and a high set point of 230 psig (15.9 bar). The low pressure switch setting should be approximately 15 psig (1.03 bar) below the back pressure regulator setting. h.

  • Page 34: Burner Pilot System

    Page 34 MS-9 R. BURNER PILOT SYSTEM The MegaStar™ incorporates a gas pilot with induced air (see Figure 18). The pilot is detected by the main burner UV scanner which is factory mounted and wired. The pilot is properly installed as delivered and should not need to be moved or adjusted.
  • Page 35: Primary Air

    Page 35 MS-9 S. PRIMARY AIR Primary air is used for improved mixing at low fire on LP fuel, and for the optional low pressure atomization of oil fuel. Eclipse offers a TBA blower for primary air supply. The primary air blower is supplied with an outlet flange to mate to the air connection on the burner.
  • Page 36: Operation

    Page 36 MS-9 5. Propane Metering Valve. Low fire is adjusted at the main LP fuel valve. Adjust while watching the LP fuel flow meter. If freezing occurs, open the low fire setting ¼ of a position at a time until the freezing stops. The valve travel varies for a given burner model (see individual burner capacity and performance data sheets).
  • Page 37: Adjustments

    Page 37 MS-9 2. The combustion air must cycle to 60 Hz for purging the system before light off, the safety limits must be satisfied, and the purge air pressure switch must be made for the purge to begin. The plant exhaust fan must be running with its damper open sufficiently for the proper purge time.
  • Page 38: Maintenance

    Page 38 MS-9 W. MAINTENANCE The Hauck MegaStar burner has minimal internal moving parts and is relatively maintenance free. However, there are a few items that should be periodically checked. 1. Check the fuel control valves for proper operation. 2. For burners fired on oil: Dirt can clog the atomizing air nozzle, as well as cause problems firing the burner.
  • Page 39: Recommended Spare Parts

    Page 39 MS-9 8. Periodically check air/fuel ratio to ensure that the burner is operating at peak efficiency. Exhaust gas analysis can be performed with most commercially available gas analyzers. Y7871 (NOT TO SCALE) Figure 20. Proper Impeller Position On Motor Shaft X.
