7. Prior to start up check that all plant components are in good working condition. 8. Never remove, disable, defeat, or bypass any safety device on this equipment. 9. Make no modifications to your Phoenix FURY Burner without the recommendation or approval of a representative of ASTEC Burner Group, Engineering, or Service Departments.
The flame shape is pre-set at the factory for the most efficient profile for your drum and burner configuration. The PHOENIX FURY Burner has an open fired combustion system that provides 60% of all the necessary combustion air. This ensures that the combustion air, plus 25% excess air, is available for efficient operation at maximum capacities.
“puffing” at the breeching plate.) 6. The air flow in the PHOENIX FURY can be monitored using the pressure tap in front of the damper. (The body pressure for a given flow is in the individual burner capacity tables.) 7.
The ASTEC Parts Department can supply combustion flights designed for your application. Operation 1. The basic model PHOENIX FURY uses a firing rate control motor mounted to the combustion air damper which is mechanically linked to the fuel valves and air damper.

4. Check burner blower rotation. Rotation should be clockwise from the motor end. Burner Pilot System The PHOENIX FURY incorporates a forced-air pilot system. The Pilot and the main flame are monitored by a single Ultra Violet (UV) flame detector attached to the burner, and included in the complete burner package.
Phoenix FURY - Operation and Service Manual Adjustment and Operation of the Pilot System 1. Use Natural Gas (NG) or Liquid Propane (LP) vapor only to fuel the pilot. WARNING! Never connect the LP fuel line to the pilot from the bottom of the LP tank. LP would likely be sent to the pilot, where it could quickly boil off, causing either an explosion or fire in the burner.

Phoenix FURY - Operation and Service Manual Purge the lines before attaching them to the fuel manifold. Adjust the pressure relief valve until the required oil pressure is attained. See the individual burner performance sheets for approximate valve settings. (See Burner Performance Data Sheets for proper fuel flows.)
8. Once the proper positioning of the Oil Gun/Pilot Assembly is completed; Re-tighten the set screws of the set collars on the mounting plate of the Oil Gun/Pilot Assembly. 9. Contact ASTEC Burner Systems Group for any questions about proper positioning.
Install the Oil Atomizer Assembly in the burner/blower with the four nuts. Flame Shape Adjustments 1. The PHOENIX FURY Burner is preset at the factory for the shortest and narrowest flame possible. This makes flame adjustment burners virtually obsolete.

Dust buildup on the scanner lens will degrade accurate flame...
Phoenix FURY - Operation and Service Manual Maintenance & Trouble Shooting Guide The PHOENIX FURY burner has minimal internal moving parts and is relatively maintenance free; however there are a few items that for safety reasons and for fuel efficiency should be periodically checked.
This adjustment should be done by qualified personnel. ii Qualified personnel are those trained by ASTEC Service Department. Air Damper Check air pressure at burner downstream of air damper it should be less than set too high 1”...

ASTEC Parts Department has one of the largest spare parts inventories for hot mix asphalt plants in the world. A new warehouse and shipping facility has expanded the capabilities of this facility even further.
The components which are tagged, for example PI 1-1, will have the Astec part number listed with it. The tags on the components match the P & I drawing. This will allow you to call the Astec Parts Department and obtain an identical part.
