Prepare
the Burner
• General
In most cases, the burner is ready to mount to the
appliance. There can be situations where the burn-
er needs to be reconfigured to perform properly in
the appliance.
Review the appliance manufactur-
er's specifications prior to installing to determine if
any modification
is required to properly configure
the burner.
Instruction on how to perform the following burner
preparation
tasks can be found in the Professional
Maintenance section.
Remove / install burner nozzle
Check head/air adjusting plate
• Low Firing
Rate Baffle (If specified)
The NX Low Firing Rate Baffle (LFRB), refer to Fig-
ure 2, reduces the burner airflow and pressure. Re-
fer to the appliance manufacturer's
instructions or
the Beckett OEM Specification Guide part number
6711. To avoid poor burner performance,
do not
omit the baffle when specified or install the baffle
when not specified.
• Mount Burner
on Appliance
Verify that the air tube installed on the burner
pro-
vides the correct insertion depth. Refer to Figure
3.
The end of the air tube should normally be 1/4"
back from the inside wall of the combustion cham-
ber. Never allow the leading edge of the retention
ring to extend into the chamber, unless otherwise
specified by the appliance manufacturer.
Bolt the burner to the appliance using the factory-
welded flange.

Note:
The Low Firing Rate Baffle may have been factory
installed. If field installation
is required, insert the
Low Fire Rate Baffle into the housing, aligning the
mounting screw hole with the notched hole in the
burner housing.
Make note that the curved end
of the baffle should be below the motor bolt boss.
Tighten the thread cutting screw to 12-24 in-lbs.
