High Velocity (HV) • Medium Velocity (MV) The gas velocity can be as high as 500 ft/s for the High Velocity burner, and 250 ft/s for the Medium Velocity burner. Figure 1.1 The ThermJet Burner Eclipse ThermJet Design Guide No. 205, 3/5/07...
Important notices about safe burner operation will be found in this section. Read this entire manual before attempting to start the system. If any part of the information in this manual is not understood, then contact your local Eclipse representative or Eclipse, Inc. before continuing. Danger:...
Regular retraining must be scheduled to maintain a high degree of proficiency. Order replacement parts from Eclipse only. Any customer-sup- eplaCemeNt arts plied valves or switches should carry UL, FM, CSA,CGA and/or CE approval where applicable.
Each burner size comes in two versions, High or Medium Velocity. Select the version needed based on requirements for temperature uniformity, circulation, chamber size, air pressure and overall operating costs.

Other manufacturers’ flame monitoring systems can be used with the burner if spark is maintained for a fixed time interval and is not interrupted when a flame signal is detected during trial for ignition. Eclipse ThermJet Design Guide No. 205, 3/5/07...
The density of the air decreases, and as a result, the outlet pressure and the flow of the blower decrease. An accurate de- scription of these effects is in the Eclipse Combustion Engineer- ing Guide (EFE 825). The Guide contains tables to calculate the effect of pressure, altitude and temperature on air.
