Introduction
The LMV52.240 and the LMV52.440 both have O
"monitor") capability. In addition, the LMV52.440 offers advanced features such as temperature
compensated light‐off and more dynamic O
recommended for more difficult applications such as low and ultra‐low NOx burners where the burner
stability band is much smaller than a traditional nozzle mixing burner. Some features in the LMV52.440
were specifically designed for ultra‐low NOx mesh burners.
The O trim functions by using an in‐situ O
2
actuators and / or VSD to maintain a % O
adjusted, thus the O trim does not adjust the firing rate (fuel‐related load). Only the air rate (air‐related
2
load) is adjusted.
Each Ratio Control Curve Point that is entered (see Section 4) will have a corresponding O
rich limit (O alarm) and lean limit (O
2
performed on Point 1. If 10 points are entered on the Ratio Control Curve, there will be 9 trim points
and 10 rich limit (O alarm) points. Having 10 points on the Ratio Control Curve is recommended.

As is the case with advanced systems such as O
advanced system must be in place and working correctly to enable the advanced system to work
correctly. For example, if the gas pressure supply is not repeatable upstream of the firing rate control
valve (fundamental system), then the O
fundamental systems on the burner / boiler that must be working correctly are outlined in detail in the
Pre‐Requisites listed in Section 4. The Pre‐Requisites for LMV52 systems with O
before O trim commissioning is attempted.

If the Pre‐Requisites are satisfied, then reliable operation of the O
settings for the application and correct commissioning of the O
behind how the O trim system operates, and will outline the typical commissioning procedure for a
2
traditional nozzle mixing burner (standard emissions) and a pre‐mix mesh burner (low or ultra‐low NOx).
Nozzle mixing burners that use a high percentage of FGR to achieve low NOx typically behave in a way
that is similar to a pre‐mix mesh burner, so the commissioning procedure for these types of burners is
similar to a pre‐mix mesh burner.
