Store the burner inside. Exposure to the elements can damage the burner.
Adjustment, maintenance, and troubleshooting of the mechanical parts of this unit
should be done by people with good mechanical aptitude and experience with com-
bustion equipment.
Order replacement parts from Eclipse only. Any customer-supplied valves or switches
should carry UL, FM, CSA, and/or CGA approval where applicable.
The best safety precaution is an alert and competent operator. Thoroughly instruct
new operators so they demonstrate an adequate understanding of the equipment and
its operation. Regular retraining must be scheduled to maintain a high degree of profi-
ciency. The operator must have easy access to this Information Guide at all times.
Eclipse Air Heat Burners are line type burners ideal for generating large volumes of
clean, hot air. Applications include ovens, dryers, fume incinerators, and similar indus-
trial equipment.
Combustion air is supplied to "RAH" and "TAH-R" models by a blower located out-
side the duct. This allows the burners to operate in recirculating airstreams with air
temperatures upstream of the burner as high as 750° F (400° C).
See Figure 2.
Weather Protection: Protect burners from the weather.
Combustion Air: Must be free of contaminants. Eclipse strongly recommends use of
a combustion air filter to remove airborne particles. If corrosive fumes or materials are
present in the air, supply the blower with fresh, clean air from an uncontaminated area
of the plant.
Room Openings: If the burner is mounted on the side of the duct, provide at least one
square inch of opening to the outdoors for every 4000 Btu/hr (1.2 kW) of burner firing
rate. This will admit fresh combustion air.
Access: Provide access to the burner for inspection and maintenance.
