4.4 COMBUSTION CALIBRATION
The Benchmark boiler is combustion calibrated with either standard combustion or Ultra-Low
NO
x
(on the BMK 750/1000 only) at the factory, whichever was ordered, prior to shipping. This
gas pressure must be within the ranges shown in Table 4-1 for each model of boiler
at full fire
.
Recalibration as part of initial start-up is necessary due to changes in the local altitude, gas BTU
content, gas supply piping and supply regulators. Combustion Calibration Test Data sheets are
shipped with each unit. These sheets must be filled out and returned to AERCO for proper
Warranty Validation.
IT IS IMPORTANT TO PERFORM THE COMBUSTION CALIBRATION PROCEDURE BELOW
TO PROVIDE OPTIMUM PERFORMANCE AND KEEP READJUSTMENTS TO A MINIMUM
