1. The commissioning procedure assumes the following:
a. All Pre‐Requisites for an LMV52 system with O
according to Section 4 of this literature.
b. The Ratio Control Curves have been commissioned according to Section 4 of this literature.
c. Section 6 of this literature has been read and understood up to this point.
d. If a start mode with combustion air temperature compensation will be used, the air
temperature sensor must be installed and activated.
2. As was the case for the Ratio Control Curves in Section 4, the same free spreadsheet can also be
used to assist in the commissioning of the O
curves as well as provides an orderly way to record the details of how the burner was set up.
3. The key to commissioning the O
Specifically, the following must be achieved for each point on the Ratio Control Curves (as
paraphrased from Section 4 of this literature):
a. Safe combustion as verified by a calibrated stack gas analyzer
b. The % load matching the fuel flow within +/‐ 3%
c. Emissions compliance
d. Smooth Ratio Control Curves (no sharp peaks or valleys)
e. VSD speed should increase with load in a linear fashion (if equipped)
f.
Determine the %O
Probing may or may not be possible depending on the burner design. Also, follow burner OEM
recommendations. Most mesh burner elements can be damaged if run too fuel rich.*
g. Find and record the %O
Point 10 by probing or according to burner OEM recommendations.*
h. Find the target %O
corresponding to emissions compliance (typically CO, NOx). After the target %O
increase the %O
and leave the point at least 0.5% O
