    OWNER/INSTALLER: For your safety this manual must be carefully read before installing, operating or servicing this brooder. This brooder is intended for use with either Natural Gas or Propane Gas. It must be installed by a qualified service person or a licensed contractor in accordance with state and local codes. In the absence of these codes, the installation must conform to the National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1 (latest edition) also know a NFPA54 or the CAN/CGA-B149.1/2 Installation Code in Canada.
  • Page 3: General Information

    GENERAL INFORMATION This brooder is a self-contained infrared radiant brooder for agricultural locations where flammable gases or vapors are not generally present. Installation of the brooders must be in accordance with all applicable codes shown in the instructions and/or the local codes and authorities having jurisdiction. In the absence of local codes, the brooder must be installed in accordance to the National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1/NFPA54 in the U.S.
  • Page 4: Brooder Control Options

    BROODER CONTROL OPTIONS Control No. 2A/2B For single or multi-zone installations using central or multiple thermostats. This 24- volt, AC, zone-type control also can operate on DC voltage as a back up. The gas valve includes a built-in regulator. A 24-volt power supply is required. Brooder can be operated by a 24-volt thermostat, computer or an environmental controller.

  • Page 6 CERAMIC CONE AND PAN ASSEMBLY 1. Loosely attach the three (3) support braces to the burner pan using three (3) ¼-20 screws and nuts from the fastener kit. Align the braces with the slotted holes located in the ceramic holder ring and slide through the upper portion of the braces. See Figure 1.
  • Page 7 CANOPY AND HANGER ASSEMBLY 1. Place the three (3) canopy support plates over each support brace. Place the canopy over the assembly so that the support braces slide through the slotted holes of the canopy. NOTE: Orient the two (2) holes in the canopy with the support brace closest to the large hole located in the burner pan.
  • Page 8 CONTROL ARM, PILOT AND BURNER JET ASSEMBLY (Pilot Models 2A, 2B, 3 and 9 Only) 1. Gently pull the thermocouple out and away from the pilot assembly. Take care not to crimp the capillary portion of the thermocouple. FIGURE 5 2.
  • Page 9 3. Secure the pilot assembly to the burner pan using two (2) #10-24 screws and nuts from the fastener kit. See Figure 6. 4. Reattach the thermocouple to the pilot assembly by sliding it through the large hole located in the burner pan and into the pilot assembly until it snaps into position.
  • Page 10 3. Slide the main burner and orifice fitting through the center hole located in the burner pan. NOTE: The tubing may need to be bent slightly by hand for alignment with the fitting. Take care not to crimp the tubing. 4.
  • Page 11 ELECTRODE AND CABLE ASSEMBLY (DSI Models 5B and 5D Only) 1. Fasten the electrode holder bracket assembly to the support brace using two (2) #10-24 screws and nuts. See Figure 6d. NOTE: The electrode holder bracket is attached to the support brace located in-line with the control arm tubing.

    COMPLETE BROODER ASSEMBLY (Pilot Models Shown) FIGURE 7 WARNING: ONCE THE BROODER IS ASSEMBLED AND BEFORE IT IS FIRST FIRED, YOU MUST CHECK FOR GAS LEAKS! USE A SOAP AND WATER SOLUTION AND APPLY AT ORIFICE FITTING AND FIELD CONNECTION AT THE GAS VALVE.
  • Page 13: Brooder Installation

    BROODER INSTALLATION 1. Locate brooders approximately 25’ to 40’ (8m to 12m) apart, in a row, as needed for bird comfort and building heat loss. If more than one row is desired, stagger rows for best heat distribution. 2. Suspend the brooder at the desired height above the floor (litter) level, normally 34” (864mm) minimum. For brooders connected to a winch (to allow for adjustment of brooder height), connect each brooder using a chain or cable suitable for the weight of each brooder.
  • Page 14: Gas Connections

    WARNING FIRE HAZARD A safety chain must be connected from the hanging bracket to a fixed part of the building structure directly above the brooder. The safety chain will prevent the brooder from falling to the floor in the event that the main suspension system fails Failure to follow these instructions may result in death, serious injury or property damage GAS CONNECTIONS...

See section 7a for procedures to test for gas leaks before putting the brooders into operation.
  • Page 16 7. It is strongly recommended that a field installed manual shut-off valve be installed in the gas piping to each brooder. This will allow service of individual brooders without having to shut down the entire gas supply system. When installing the gas line, it is recommended to connect a sediment trap (shown below) in the gas line at a point before the gas line enters the house.
  • Page 17 NOTE: Do not expose final stage piping to excessive heat or direct sunshine during the leak test. Pressure build-up in the line due to heat may compensate for pressure loss due to leaks. This will prevent the gauge reading from indicating system leaks. WARNING: Gas Pressure Testing is to be performed only by qualified personnel.

    ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS (Model No. 2A and 2B) ZONE CONTROL PILOT IGNITION 1. All electrical wiring shall conform to the latest edition of the National Electrical Code (ANSI/NFPA No. 70), or the code legally authorized in the locality where the installation is made. DO NOT use phone cable for electric supply wiring.
  • Page 22 3. The brooders with the No. 3 and No. 9 control options do not require any electrical supply because they generate their own electricity and operate thermostatically off this power. 4. Each brooder with the No. 2A and 2B control option requires a 24 volt-power supply via a 24 volt transformer.
