4.12.2 Gas pressure
The adjacent diagram is used to calculate manifold pressure taking
into account combustion chamber pressure.
Gas manifold pressure measured at test point 1)(Fig. 27), with:
•
combustion chamber at 0 " WC
•
burner operating at maximum output
•
Combustion head adjusted as indicated in diagram (Fig. 19)
Calculate the approximate high fire output of the burner as follows:
–
subtract the combustion chamber pressure from the gas pres-
sure measured at test point 1)(Fig. 27).
–
Find the nearest pressure value to your result in Fig. 26.
–
Read off the corresponding output on the left.
Example RLS 100/EV:
•
Maximum output operation
•
Natural gas
•
Gas pressure at test point 1)(Fig. 27)
•
Pressure in combustion chamber
4.41 - 0.79
A maximum output of 3616 MBtu/hr shown in Tab. K corresponds
to 3.62" WC pressure, column 1, natural gas.
This value serves as a rough guide, the effective delivery must be
measured at the gas meter.
