Installation - Keison Bibby Scientific Techne Afterburners AB-100 Operator's Manual

instAllAtion

mount the afterburner in a convenient position adjacent to the fluidised bath ensuring that sufficient
space is left around the afterburner for access during maintenance. In particular access to the front of
the afterburner is required to enable the burner plate to be removed for cleaning if required.
connect the lower input spigot to the output of the fume extraction fan. the ductwork between the
output duct of the fluidised bath and the input to the extraction fan should be generally in line with
recommendations covered in the earlier General description section of this manual.
connect the output spigot to a suitable insulated exhaust stack directed to atmosphere (see General
description section).
AB-100
connect a suitably sized gas main to the 3/4" BSp input connection below the control/gas train console,
positioning a lockable manual shut-off valve close to the afterburner to ensure safety during maintenance
periods, etc.
AB-100
connect a suitably sized gas main to the 2" BSp input connection below the control/gas train console,
positioning a lockable manual shut-off valve close to the afterburner to ensure safety during maintenance
periods, etc.
connect a single phase electrical supply to the input terminals in the control cabinet, see rating plate for
details. the base of the control cabinet may be machined to accept suitable conduit. the electrical supply
to the afterburner should be interlocked with the motor starter of the extraction fan (see General
description and circuit diagram).
connect the low pressure side of the differential air pressure switch (terminated at the rear of the
afterburner) to the ducting just prior to the input of the extraction fan using 5/16" od copper tubing or
a suitable alternative. the differential air pressure switch monitors the pressure drop across the extraction
fan in its normal working mode and is intended to switch off the afterburner when the exhaust gas flow
ceases due to a blocked flue or seized fan impeller, etc.
purge the gas supply line to the burner by removing the 1/8" BSp plug from the main gas train situated
between the pressure regulator and first main gas solenoid valve.
remove the inspection panel containing the sight glass and ensure that the burner plate is clean and free
of any swarf or insulation material.
