Introduction The Eclipse Combustion Veri-Flame Single Burner Monitoring System controls RODUCT the start-up sequence and monitors the flame of single gas, oil, or combination ESCRIPTION gas/oil burners. There are three different models to the Veri-Flame line: the no purge, the purge and the modulation models. Each model features field select- able trial for ignition (TFI).
Off =5 seconds. For 5605 units: On =10 seconds; Off =15 seconds). SW4 through 7: Purge time selection. Total purge time is the sum of each switch selected. SW8: Post purge selection. (On=15 second post purge). Eclipse Veri-Flame Instruction Manual 818 -2/02...

“cross talk”, so the shield or flexible armor must be grounded to prevent this situation. For flame rod sensor runs approximately 100 feet (30 meters) or greater, use Eclipse part number 21741 coax cable. To achieve the maximum wiring distance, the shield should not be grounded (keep in mind that an ungrounded shield provides less protection against electrical interference).
Warning Scanners Use only Eclipse scanner models as listed in the Illustrated Parts List at the end of this document. When installing scanners, please consider the following: 1) Position the scanner within 457 mm (18") of the flame. Consult factory for longer distances.
Realign the sensor so that it requires a larger pilot flame. Repeat steps 1 through 6 until the main burner lights off smoothly and reliably. Eclipse Veri-Flame Instruction Manual 818 -2/02...
Always replace faulty equipment with new equipment before resuming operation.
