Will vary but may range up to 125lb./hr. If on-site testing is required it is the responsibility of the purchaser and your Firelake dealer can assist in the process. Outside installation is recommended with a minimum metal roof and three-sided metal shelter, provided a minimum of four (4) foot clearance from any combustible material.

SITE INFORMATION LACEMENT AND ONSTRUCTION RECOMMENDATIONS • The incinerator is designed for indoor or outdoor installation on a concrete slab. • For ease of operation and to protect the equipment we suggest the unit be installed in a three or four sided shelter with roof. Allow service space to load and unload and service the burners and controls.

UPPLY Fuel Oil Models OIL TANK: 1. Since tanks vary in size and fixtures, you may need to make adaptations to use the parts supplied. Placing the tank to allow gravity flow to burners is ideal but limit line pressure head to 3 psi (nfpa rule) or no more than 10 psi (pump vendor limit) at the burner pumps.
Page 15
FUEL OIL CONNECTIONS “X” TIP: TANK LOCATION - HAVING FUEL GRAVITY FLOW IS BETTER THAN HAVING BURNER PUMPS SUCK FUEL UPWARD. BE SURE ARRANGEMENT MEETS LOCAL CODE AND NEVER EXCEED PUMP INLET PRESSURE. “X” A TEE IS USED ON LINES SHOWN TO CONNECT THE THIRD BURNER LOCATED AT THE OPPOSITE END OF THE CREMATOR.
Place a manual gas valve near burner. • Allow for disconnecting lines, use proper fittings to facilitate service if needed. Typical pipe assembly. Some customers have Firelake factory build the gas train thus may be different than shown. P77-3 SC30 Manual 9.27.2019 Page 16...

Thermocouples Screw thermocouple in opening (apply never-seize on threads or similar antilocking paste) and only hand tighten in port. Connect wires and conduit. Connection: yellow wire to the + side and red wire to the – side. Space conduit away from hot metal surfaces to prevent melting. TIP: if controller shows SnSr or similar display the thermocouple is not wired proper, the red or yellow wire failed, or the inner ceramic element is failed.

OIL BURNER SETTINGS & AIR ADJUSTMENTS Air Band indicator is normally set to 0. Waste conditions may need field adjustment to allow more air to the burn process. Excessive opening may create unwanted positive pressure in the chamber and possible smoke to escape the seals.
Page 19
GAS BURNER SETTINGS & AIR ADJUSTMENTS Gas Flow Adjustment (Midco burner), remove nut, turning inner screw clockwise reduces flow. Some burners have a 2 orifice that limits flow, ask your dealer if Figure 1: Air Shutter (Midco burner) concerns about flame size. Model: Mid Continent Model J-121 Pilot...

Operating Instructions Safety cannot be overemphasized when charging the incinerator. The following heat resistant garments should be worn when charging or unloading: Insulated gloves. Full length face shield. Full length sleeves for arm protection. Unprotected persons are not to be in area when charging. 1.

FDC TEMPERATURE CONTROL OPERATION DISPLAYS PROGRAMMED SETPOINTS (SP1, SP2, SP3) UP & DOWN arrows (triangles) may be used by operator to adjust preheat. SCROLL & RESET should only be used to view or change programming. Only trained programming persons should reprogram, and only when they are CERTAIN the change will not harm the apparatus or surroundings.
Page 24
SP value is shown in green. SP1 will always be shown by default, other SP values can be viewed by clicking recycle button bottom left pad (oval loop ). While a given SP is visible that SP value may be changed with arrow up and down pads beside the recycle pad.
Page 25
• During the burn if the temperature in the waste chamber exceeds programming for SP1 on lower FDC the “B1” burner fuel will be shut off until the temperature drops 90 degrees (90 degrees difference is the maximum the control can be set for on any FDC output).
MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE DAILY Check burners for smooth ignition. Check gas pressure before and during operation. Check fuel tank level. Clean inlet to fans, remove debris, bugs from burner housing area. Keep unnecessary tools and materials from incinerator area. Never store combustibles on or near the incinerator. Check primary chamber for wear.
TROUBLE SHOOTING & LP M ODELS No spark at electrodes 1. Is burner blower operating? Possible defective blower motor. 2. Clean electrodes and pilot igniter assembly. Apply heat if moisture is present. 3. Check electrode position. See drawing in Midco manual for proper adjustment. 4.
