Chapter 2 — Burner Operation and Control

Part No. 750-184

2-5

subsequent setting of fuel input throughout the firing range. It 
has no control over the firing rate when the manual-automatic 
switch is set on “automatic.”

11.Burner Switch (Figure 2-8): A manually operated start-stop 

switch for directly starting and stopping operation of burner.

12.Flame Detector: Monitors gas or oil pilot and energizes the 

programmer flame relay in response to a flame signal. It 
continues to monitor main flame (oil or gas) after expiration of 
pilot providing period. A standard equipped boiler has a lead 
sulfide (infrared sensitive) detector.

13.Combustion Air Proving Switch: A pressure-sensitive switch 

actuated by air pressure from the forced draft fan. Its contacts 
close to prove presence of combustion air. The fuel valves cannot 
be energized unless this switch is satisfied. The combustion air 
proving switch is provided on all gas fired or combination gas-oil 
burners. An oil fired boiler does not normally have a separate 
switch but utilizes the atomizing air proving switch to the same 
effect, since the presence of atomizing air from the air pump, 
which is belt driven from the blower motor, is evidence of blower 
operation.

14.Alarm: Sounds to notify the operator of a condition requiring 

attention. The alarm is available as optional equipment.

15.Stack Thermometer (Figure 2-6): Indicates temperature of 

vented flue gases.

16.Diffuser (Figure 2-7): A circular plate, located at the furnace end 

of the burner drawer, that imparts a rotary swirling motion to 
combustion air immediately prior to its entering the flame, thus 
providing a thorough and efficient mixture with the fuel.

17.Rotary Air Damper (Figure 2-7): Provides accurate control of 

combustion air in proportion to fuel input for various load 
demands. It consists of two concentric cylinders with openings. 
The outer is stationary. The inner is rotated, under control of the 
modulating motor, to vary the effective size of the openings 
where they overlap.

18.Indicator Lights (Figure 2-8): Provide visual information of boiler 

operation as follows (indicator lights vary with controls 
provided):

• Flame Failure
• Load  Demand 
• Fuel Valve (valve open)
• Low Water
