WARNING

:  ALL  ACTIONS  RELATED  TO  THE  INSTALLATION,  SERVICE  AND 

OPERATION  OF  GAS  PILOT  MAY  ONLY  BE  CARRIED  OUT  BY  A  TRAINED  AND 
QUALIFIED PERSONNEL. 

WARNING:  STRICTLY  OBSERVE  THE  TEMPERATURE  LIMITS  FOR  PILOT  AND 
IGNITER  ROD  MOUNTED  INSIDE.  IN  THE  CASE  OF  EXPECTED  WORK  AT  THE 
LIMIT 

OF 

PERMISSIBLE 

OPERATING 

TEMPERATURES, 

APPROPRIATE 

MEASURES SHOULD BE TAKEN (E.G.  CHANGE OF THE  MOUNTING POSITION). 
WHEN  BOILER  OR  HEATER  INSTALLATION  IS  IN  OPERATION  ALWAYS  KEEP 
THE AIR ADJUSTMENT SLEEVE OPEN TO ENSURE THE PROPER AIRFLOW.  

7. 

INSTALLATION 

During the installation, all components must be protected from impact or bending. 

WARNING: DURING PILOT INSTALLATION THE RECOMMENDATIONS IN THE 
APPENDIX 2 SHOULD BE STRICTLY OBSERVED. 

SP-48-ND 

pilot’s air tube can be welded directly to the burner plate, or placed in the mounting tube (see Fig. 2). 

It  should  be  noted  that  the  insertion  depth  should  be  fitted  in  a  manner  that  will  allow  full  air  adjustment  by 
adjustment sleeve (insertion depth cannot exceed the “L” value – see Fig. 1). 

Pilot air tube is made of stainless steel, mounting tube is made of carbon steel which must be noted for welding. 

Note: Particulates entrained in the gas could block the pilot’s gas orifices so gas supply line should be equipped 
with an effective strainer unit. 

7.1 MOUNTING TUBE 

The mounting tube, if used, should be attached to the burner plate using bolts or welding (see Fig. 2). If it is not 
possible to use one of mounting tubes proposed above, a different type can be used, bearing in mind that its inner 
diameter should be properly matched to the outer diameter of the pilot air tube to be able to fit and fix the pilot in 
a tube with proper clearance. 

In case of an application including a mounting tube proceed in the following way: 
a)

Based on assembly drawings mark and cut a hole in the burner plate with a diameter slightly larger than the 
diameter of the mounting tube. 

b)

The  mounting  tube  for  welding:  slide  the  mounting  tube  in  the  hole  and  set  it  in  the  correct  position 
(insertion depth and proper angle relative to the main burner nozzle position). 

c)

The mounting tube for welding: weld using the electrode appropriate for the material. 

d)

If the flanged mounting tube is used, bolt it to the burner plate after drilling the correct sized holes. 

e)

For  both  types  of mounting  tube  the  clamp  assembly  with  screws  and  gasket  provides a  fast  and  reliable 
mounting and dismounting of the pilot. 

7.2 GAS ASSEMBLY AND AIR TUBE 

a) 

The  position  of  the  electrical  igniter  rod  tip  in  relation  with  the  stabilizer  assembly  of  pilot  should  be 
checked  following  information  in  p.  4.  The  correct  position  for  different  types  of  electrical  igniter  rods 
should be taken into consideration (see Fig. 1). 
It  should  be  remembered  that  the  rod  tip  positioning  against  the  stabilizer  plate  in  the  pilot  gas  part 
assembly (pos. 1, Fig.1) should be done outside the air tube only. 

REMARK: 

IN CASE OF ANY DOUBTS REGARDING INSTALLATION OF THE PILOT 

CONSULT WITH THE MANUFACTURER.
