Calculate the approximate maximum output of the burner as fol-
lows:
subtract the combustion chamber pressure from the gas pres-
sure measured at test point 1)(Fig. 16);
find the nearest pressure value to your result in column A or B
(Tab. G) for the burner in question;
read off the corresponding output on the left.

A maximum output of 990 MBtu/hr shown in Tab. G corresponds to
2.2" WC pressure, column A.
This value serves as a rough guide, the effective delivery must be
measured at the gas meter.
The data of thermal output and combustion
head gas pressure are related to full open (90°)
gas butterfly valve.
