Section: Prepare Before Installing

Owner’s Responsibility

Incorrect installation, adjustment, and 

use of this burner could result in severe 

personal injury, death, or substantial 

property damage from 

fi

 re,  carbon 

monoxide poisoning, soot or explosion.

Contact a professional, quali

fi

 ed service agency for the 

installation, adjustment and service of your oil heating 

system.  This work requires technical training, trade 

experience, licensing or certi

fi

 cation in some states and 

the proper use of special combustion test instruments. 

Please carefully read and comply with the following 

instructions:

Never store or use gasoline or other 

fl

 ammable liquids 

or vapors near this burner or appliance. 
Never attempt to burn garbage or refuse in this 
appliance.
Never attempt to light the burner/appliance by throwing 
burning material into the appliance. 
Never attempt to burn any fuel not speci

fi

 ed  and 

approved for use in this burner.
Never restrict the air inlet openings to the burner or 
the combustion air ventilation openings in the room.

(See Warning on Impaired Burner
Performance and Fire Hazard.)

*Firing rate capacity is based on air

fl

 ow volume.  In the SDC burner, air

fl

 ow 

volume and motor speed are proportional to the DC voltage.  This results in a 
lower maximum 

fi

 ring rate at 24V.

Note 1. See equipment manufacturer’s burner speci

fi

 cations for recommended 

outlet pressure. Pressure is 100 psig unless otherwise noted.

High altitude installations – Accepted 
industry practice requires no derate 

of burner capacity up to 2,000 feet above sea level. For 
altitudes higher than 2,000 feet, derate the burner capacity 
2% for each 1,000 feet above the 2,000 feet.
