`TD` SERIES DUAL FUEL BURNERS


GENERAL INFORMATION AND OPERATING MANUAL

IMPORTANT
Throughout this publication Dunphy Combustion Limited are referred to as `The Company`.
The manual, which is supplied with every burner should be read prior to the installation of the unit.
While giving information on the site work involved and on the burner commissioning procedure,
the content cannot include all of the data which may be necessary to achieve the design output of a
burner to a particular appliance because of the wide variety of heating and process plant for which
the burner is suitable precludes this.
The Company strongly advises that the commissioning of the burners is carried out by Dunphy
trained engineers and points out that it may be impossible to impart all the necessary information to
enable others to do so.
Under all circumstances the provisions of The Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 are the most
important consideration and if any doubts exist concerning the safe operation of the burner, The
Company should be contacted for advice. This provision also applies to the legislation of countries
to which the burners may be exported.
Where equipment, not of The Company`s supply, is used in conjunction with the burners, reference
should be made to specific instructions or regulations governing the installation and use of such
equipment.
The Company gratefully acknowledges the permission of component suppliers and others to
reproduce data sheets and technical information in this manual.
For reliable and efficient operation of the burner, it is essential that regular maintenance is carried
out in accordance with the instructions contained in the text of this manual. The fact that a burner
may be under warranty does not absolve the user from the responsibility for this and inadequate
maintenance may lead to claims, made under guarantees of materials or performance being denied

IF IN DOUBT - ASK!
Information contained in this manual is given without any responsibility on the part of the company
for the consequences of the actions of persons making use of such information.
Equipment is supplied strictly under the terms of The Companys current `Conditions of Supply`
which are printed on the reverse of order acknowledgements and delivery notes.
Copies are available on request.

1 General Information

BOILER EFFICIENCY DIRECTIVE


( HOT WATER BOILERS ONLY )
In compliance with the Boiler Efficiency Directive, during commissioning, all adjustments to the
burner must be made in accordance with the boiler manufacturer's instructions and these must include
checking of flue gas temperature, average water temperature and CO2 or CO concentration.
1.1 General
Burners must be checked at the time of delivery and any deficiencies or damage immediately
reported to the carrier or supplier. The company will make good any defects or replace missing
items strictly in accordance with their current conditions of supply.
The company has a policy of continuous development and therefore reserve the right to make
changes, without notice, in burner or other specifications.
Burners carrying the same model number may have major differences in their detailed
specification, such as draught tube lengths to suit the dimensions of a particular appliance, which
makes it impossible to give, in a single publication, precise information on the whole range of
applications. Data is readily available from the company and can be supplied on application.

Please give the burner serial number when requesting information.


All TD series burners are manufactured and tested to European Standards EN676: 2003 & A2: 2008
Automatic forced draught burners for gaseous fuels, Definitions, requirements, testing, marking and
EN 267 Forced draught oil burners Definitions, requirements, testing, marking

It is essential that appliance and burner combinations are correctly matched.


If any doubt exists about the suitability of a particular combination the installer
must check with the manufacturers.
If a burner is to be fitted to an existing boiler, maximum combustion efficiency can only be
achieved if all heat transfer surfaces are cleaned prior to the installation. Generally `TD` series
burners are not suitable for use in areas of high humidity or in explosive atmospheres, but special
units suitable for use in adverse situations can be manufactured to a customer's specific
requirements. Details of special units are available, on request, from the Dunphy sales department.
1.2

Working parameters

Temperature

0 to +50C

Relative Humidity

60 - 90% non-condensing

Atmospheric Air Pressure will generally be in the range of 950 to 1100mbar, but this will change
with altitude, if there are any queries please consult the Dunphy technical department.
1.3

Fuels

'TD' Series of burner must only be used with the fuels specified on the burner data plate and in the
case of gas, the pressure must not, under any circumstances, drop below the stated minimum
operating level.
The burner is also optimised for use with 35 sec diesel oil.
B100 Bio-diesel must not be used on a standard burner. When using B100, it must be specified at
time of order. Special pumps, valves and seals are used when burning B100.

TD5 Manual Rev 4

1.3.1

Fuel Tanks

Fuel storage tanks must be positioned to maintain a positive head to burners or ring main pumps,
regardless of the oil level in the tank.
Vertical and horizontal storage tanks should be mounted on concrete plinths in accordance with
local, national or any environmental standards that may apply.
The fuel lines and fuel filtration system must be sized to prevent any possibility of vacuum
occurring in the pump suction ports.
If a positive head of oil is not maintained, there is a possibility that cavitations will occur within the
fuel pump.
As a general guide, the fuel storage tanks must be mounted at least one meter above the ring main
fuel pumps which should be sited as close as possible to the tank discharge.
1.3.2

Filtration

Duplex fuel filtration is recommended to the ring main pumps, this will allow for maintenance
without shutdown of the ring main system, during normal operation of the plant.
1.3.3

Ring Main Pumps

The ring main pumps should be sized to give 100 to 150% over the burner pumps fuel
requirements.
Pumps must be fitted with an internal relief valve set at a maximum of 3 bar for pump protection.
Manual isolation valves should be fitted to the pump inlet and outlet pipework to allow for
maintenance. It is recommended that the valves have electric switch packs fitted to them so that
they can be interlocked with oil operation.
It is always preferable to use duplex pumping where practical, particularly on multi-burner
installations.
1.3.4

Pipe Runs

Pipework should be run in a manner that allows it to be self venting and, in sections that require
venting, a suitable vent or de-gassing section should be fitted.
Where overhead ring mains are to be installed particular care and attention should be taken that the
system can be adequately vented. Welded construction is preferable to screwed connections.
1.3.5

Burner Connection

Burner connections should be provided in the ring main pipework adjacent to the boiler and close
enough to allow the burner to be opened without the need to disconnect the flexible oil lines.
Note: - Manual isolation valves should not be fitted on the return lines.
1.3.6

Burner Filtration

Burner filtration will depend on the size of burners in question and the quality/grade of the fuel oil
to be used, but good quality fuel filters, preferably of the self-clean type are recommended.
1.3.7

Pressure Regulation

The Pressure regulating valve of the ring main must be of the low, or zero, hysteresis type and
capable of maintaining a stable ring main pressure through the minimum and maximum flow
conditions of the supply system irrespective of any change in flow volume or viscosity.
A number of suppliers manufacture valves suitable for this purpose and further details are available
from the Dunphy technical department.
June 13

8 of 129

TD5 Manual Rev 4

1.3.8

Oil Line Connections

It is essential that the final connections between the main oil supply lines and the burner fuel pump
are made with flexible oil lines that are long enough to allow the burner to be swung open on its
hinges without having to be disconnected. Care should be taken to ensure that the flexible oil lines
do not become `kinked` as this will cause damage to the flexible and result in leakage.
1.4

Burner construction

Each T series burner is constructed from 5 separate castings described as follows:


Hinge
In common with all other body castings, the mounting casting is manufactured from aluminium
grade LM6 with the front face drilled to the dimensions given in section 1.5 of this manual suitable
for mounting studs. The rear face has two external lugs which form part of the burner hinge and is
drilled to accept the studs that are used to lock the burner closed.
Note: The fuel pipework enters this casting and it is essential that all joints and connections on the
combustion head are checked for security before the burner is hinged to the closed position. See the
maintenance section for details.
This casting houses the burner draught tube and combustion head along with the appropriate
ignition cables and flame detection equipment.
Fan case assembly
This consists of two aluminium castings with machined faces, bolted together and enclosing
the fan (which is sized to suit the particular burner model according to output and combustion
chamber resistance).
Integral with and inside the front half of the fan cases are the compressor blades; on the outside,
external lugs are attached with pins and thrust bearings to the burner mounting casting to form the
hinges.
The rear half is tapped to take the burner lifting eye and pads are used for the attachment of the
components on various models of the burner. The rear face is machined to match the air shutter
assembly, which is attached to it.
A differential air pressure switch, piped across the air inlet and pressure outlet of the combustion air
fan is mounted on the front section. Its function is to prevent the burner from firing if a supply of
combustion air is not available or to lock out the burner if the air supply is interrupted during
normal running.
Air shutter
Combustion air is introduced through two concentric castings, one rotating about the other on a
PTFE bearing surface, regulating the combustion air supply through characterised slots to
accurately maintain the fuel air ratio. Close machining tolerances ensure almost zero leakage when
the damper is fully closed. The characterisation of the slots also ensures very high control of the air
supply at the important low fire end typically 30 degrees of movement accounts for only 10% of
air throughput thus ensuring very high turndown capability.
The operation of the air shutter is activated by a reversible, mains voltage, synchronous motor (on
high/low burners) or a 240 (or 24V) motor with potentiometer control for fully modulating units.
Adjustable rigid linkage is used and the limits of travel are set by micro switches. Final adjustments
are made during commissioning.
On burners fitted with electronic modulation systems the air shutter and the fuel valves will all be
manufactured with individual drive motors controlled by the modulation system.

June 13

9 of 129

TD5 Manual Rev 4

On burners which have air inlet silencers as standard a 0-10 scale is fitted to indicate the opening of
the air shutter (not the firing rate) and nylon support bearings ensure that the travel is as smooth as
possible.
Burner Motor
The burner (fan) motor is a continuously rated 2-pole unit with class 'F' insulation, sized according
to the application. The motor is mounted the inside of the inner shutter thus allowing 100% heat
recovery from the motor into the combustion air offering efficiency ratings greater than EFF1. This
also ensures inherently quiet operation from the burner.
Combustion Air Fan
Mounted directly onto the motor shaft and positioned within the fan case assembly, the fan supplies
combustion air via the compressor vanes and mounting casting to the combustion head.
Due to the 'T' burner requirement for extremely low vibration and noise levels the fans are
manufactured and balanced to the very highest standards (ISO 1940-2003).
All fans are colour coded according to size.
Combustion Head
The air for combustion passes from the burner fan at a pressure related to the resistance of the
boiler, down the draught tube to the combustion head. The latter is an assembly of components
which cause the gas to be discharged into the air flow in such a way that optimum mixing takes
place.
Many types of combustion head are available depending on appliance geometry, gas type, available
gas pressure, NOx level requirement etc
Note: On any burner, an almost infinite combination of combustion head components may be used
to achieve optimum efficiency and a flame shape to suit a very wide range of heat-raising
appliances.
Burner Control Cabinet
Standard burners are supplied with a dust resistant damp-proof cabinet mounted on the side of the
burner. In many cases all the burner controls are fitted within the burner control cabinet (figure 1).
In more complicated installations, this cabinet would house a terminal strip (figure 2) which would
then interface to a control desk via flying leads.

Figure 2

Control desks are available in wardrobe type style (figure 3) or desk type style (figure 4). These
can vary in complexity and are able to house a whole host of burner/boiler controllers, water levels
controls, inverters, plc etc...

Figure 4

Figure 3

Air Inlet Silencer


Because of their design characteristics, 'T' series burners operate at very low noise levels, however,
further reduction of these levels can be made by fitting air inlet silencers which are designed to
cover the air shutter castings. The standard foam lined silencer typically offers sound levels in the
region of 80dBA. An optional Snorkel type silencer is available which will reduce sound levels to
below 75dBA. Silencers can also be tailored to suit ducted air supplies, filters or additional acoustic
attenuation. For extremely sensitive installations, 'Acoustic Shrouds' which cover the entire burner
can be individually designed to suit most applications. Quotations are available on request.

Burner Mounting

Care must be taken when mounting the burner not to damage the mounting gasket. The furnace
pipe (where fitted) is generally positioned at 12 oclock on the mounting flange and care must be
taken not to damage it during the mounting process.

Note: - Ensure that the burner mounting gasket is correctly fitted when fixing the burner to
the appliance. This gasket creates a gas-tight seal between the boiler and burner and also
insulates the burner mounting casting.
It is important to check that the burner draught tube projection into the combustion chamber
conforms to the appliance manufacturers instructions.
Non standard draught tube projections are available on request; - please consult the Dunphy sales
dept.
In general, for reverse flame boilers the draught tube projection into the combustion chamber
should be between 50 and 100mm. For other boilers the burner draught tube should finish flush or
slightly proud of any boiler refractory or insulation. Low NOx heads should be projected into the
furnace by at least 100 - 150mm.

If there is any doubt about the correct projection into the combustion chamber, the appliance
manufacturer must be consulted.

Gas Valve mounting


Burner fitted with Unibloc

The Unibloc gas valve is


a heavy item and will
require two persons to lift
it into position and secure
in place using bolts
provided.
The Unibloc is shipped
pre - connected. Please
consult electrical wiring
diagram for electrical
connections.
Governor shown is
supplied with every
burner using a Unibloc
gas valve and should be
installed according to
guidelines illustrated
below and approximately
10 pipe diameters
upstream of the gas valve.
Pipe work and isolating valve are supplied by others.
Important:
The installer must install a 90 turn type isolation ball valve next to or in close proximity to
the burner and capable of rapid operation.
The manual valve must be capable of operating at a pressure equal to 1.5 times the maximum
supply pressure and where possible must be orientated in such a way that when the valve closes the
handle must fall from the vertical to the horizontal. The valve must have mechanical end stops to
prevent the ball valve from going below the 0 point or above the 90 point.
The gas supply pipework
must be adequately
supported to prevent undue
stress on the burner casing or
the gas train components.
Typical Gas train installation
Gas supplies greater than
is shown on the right
500mbar must be governed
down to a suitable gas
pressure below 500mbar
using a CE approved high
pressure gas governor. The
gas governor or should be
fitted as per manufactures
instructions, copies available
on request.

detection fluid.
If the installation is supplied with a gas pressure above 1 bar (14.5p.s.i.g.) and contains plant with a
heat input of more than 2MW, local authorities will generally ask for the fitting of remotely
operable fire valves. The national or other standards in countries to which the burners may be
exported must be identified and met.
2.2.2

Burner fitted with Siemens VGD40 gas valve

The Siemens gas valve is a heavy item


and will require two persons to lift it into
position and secure in place using bolts
provided.
8mm blue and black PVC pipes plus
fitting are supplied with the burner. The
blue line must be connected between the
Air connection on the SKP75 actuator
and the air pulse line situated on the top
flat of the burner hinge section. The black
line must be connected between the
Combustion Chamber connection on the
SKP75 and the furnace line connection
protruding through the mounting flange of
the burner.
Important:
The installer must install a 90 turn type
isolation ball valve next to or in close proximity
to the burner and capable of rapid operation.
The manual valve must be capable of operating at
a pressure equal to 1.5 times the maximum supply
pressure and where possible must be orientated in
such a way that when the valve closes the handle
must fall from the vertical to the horizontal. The
valve must have mechanical end stops to prevent
the ball valve from going below the 0 point or
above the 90 point.
The gas supply pipework must be adequately
supported to prevent undue stress on the burner
casing or the gas train components.
The Siemens gas valve has a built-in governor and
is suitable for gas pressures up to 500mBar.
Gas supplies greater than 500mbar must be
governed down to a suitable gas pressure below
500mbar using a CE approved high pressure gas governor. The gas governor or should be fitted as
per manufactures instructions, copies available on request.

Gas Head

The Combustion head is attached to the gas inlet on the body. The gas flows through the gas annulus
and through the 4 holes in the gas nozzle.
The gas flow can be altered by adjusting the restrictor band, shown below. Undo the four M5 screws,
rotate the band to open or close the nozzle holes.

3.7.2 Multipipe Gas Nozzle adjustment


The Combustion head is attached to the gas inlet on the body. The gas flows through the 6 gas pipes and
through the holes in the gas nozzles.
The gas flow can be altered by rotating the nozzles to direct the gas either towards or away from the
centre of the burner.
The gas nozzles can also be adjusted along the multipipe head, this will either move the gas holes closer
or further away from the flameplate.
To carry out the above adjustments, loosen the 2x M4 grub screws on each nozzle securing the nozzle
to the pipe.

Adjustments and Operating Principles


4.1

Electronic Modulation burners (M RT)

ME burners are fitted with electronic control systems


which have direct control over the air damper and gas
butterfly valve using high precision digital servo motors.
The Air / Gas or Air / Oil ratio is defined by a profile
curve which is programmed into the controller during the
commissioning phase.
Ratiotronic 6000 series controllers are generally fitted to
these burners however Siemens LMV2.. series and
LMV5.. series controllers may also be offered as an
alternative.

ME burners are relatively complex products and it is


recommend that they are commissioned by qualified
Dunphy personnel.
Documentation on these controllers is too lengthy to
incorporate into this document and therefore is supplied as
a separate manual. Both manuals must be used in
conjunction with each other when commissioning and
operating the burner.

Oil Operating System Modulating Burners ART 114 and ART 1400 Nozzles

Atomisation of the oil is by means of a single nozzle which works on the spill-back principle. The
nozzle fits into a hydraulic nozzle line assembly that allows oil from the pump outlet to circulate
through the nozzle and back through the metering valve to the pump return when the burner is
ready to fire, N.C. solenoid valves 4 & 5 open allowing oil to flow through the nozzle. the return
path from the nozzle line flows through a metering valve and back to the return of the pump
through a safety shut off valve.
The oil volume is controlled by a metering valve 6, in the spill line restricting the amount of spilled
oil and therefore increasing the volume that passes through the nozzle for combustion.
Control of both the metering valve and the air shutter is achieved by means of independent servo
motors which are positioned by the electronic control system.

Oil Operating System Modulating Burners ART 106 Nozzle

Atomisation of the oil is by means of a single nozzle which works on the spill-back principle.
From the schematic diagram below it can be seen that when the oil supply is admitted to the
nozzle by the two main oil valves, the flow can either pass through the nozzle into the furnace or
can return down the spill line to the pump return.
The control of the oil volume is achieved by a metering valve in the spill line restricting the amount
of `spilled` oil and therefore increasing the volume that passes through the nozzle for combustion.
Control of both the metering valve and the air shutter is achieved by means of a modulating
motor which is positioned by potentiometer according to the control signal.
On burner shutdown both the main safety shut off valves and the return safety shut off valves
close simultaneously to isolate the nozzle and reduce any possibility of oil spillage into the furnace.

Oil Operating System Modulating Burners Multi-Oil Nozzles

Atomisation of the oil is by means of three nozzles which work on the spill-back principle. The
nozzle fits into the hydraulic nozzle line assemblies that allow oil from the pump outlet to circulate
through the nozzles and back through the metering valves to the pump return when the burner is
ready to fire, two PDV N/C solenoid valves open allowing oil to flow through the nozzles. The
return path from the centre nozzle flows through metering valve MV1, while the three outer nozzle
flows through MV2, they then join a common oil line, passing through two N/C safety shut off
valves, and back to the return of the pump.
The oil volume is controlled by the metering valves (MV1 and MV2) in the spill line restricting the
amount of spilled oil and therefore increasing the volume that passes through the nozzle for
combustion.
Control of both metering valves and the air shutter is achieved by means of independent servo
motors which are positioned by the electronic control system.

Move to postpurge

If Post Purge is not selected then the controller returns to state 1


to wait for another start-up.
If Post Purge has been selected then the fuel servo motor is
moved to its closed position, and the selected air motor(s) are
moved to their post purge position(s).

18.

Post-purge

When the air drive(s) have reached their post purge positions
then the Post Purge Time (t9) is started. When t9 has elapsed,
the burner motor is turned off and the controller returns to state
1 to wait for another start-up.

5.3

Modulation

During stage 16 (modulation), the controller will position the fuel and air motors within the
programmed profile appropriate to the requirement for heat. The controller has 2 modes of
operation using the standard RATIOTRONIC modulation function, Normal and Local. The mode
of operation is set via the keypad by pushing the Burner ON/OFF key and selecting the mode.
Using the programmable block function (option) within the controller it is possible for the
modulation control to be generated with customised options, these are not covered in the standard
manual.
5.4

Normal mode

In Normal mode, the modulation rate is determined by the internal PID control settings, Manual
modulation from the keypad, or by one of the following remote influences:
Auxiliary modulation input,
Digital set point selection
Serial communications Comview or Lead/Lag.
5.5

Local mode

In Local mode, the modulation rate is determined by either the internal PID settings or Manual
modulation via the UP/DOWN keys. External modulation inputs and set point selection inputs are
ignored.
When Local1 is displayed the burner is running using the Set point 1 PID settings.
When Local2 is displayed the burner is running using the Set point 2 PID settings.

Non-volatile lockout

Non-Volatile lockouts cannot be cleared without operator intervention and are remembered in the
event of power being removed from the controller.
A non-volatile lockout will occur under the following conditions:
If any step of the gas proving sequence fails
In stages 1-9 (inclusive) if a flame is detected
In stages 11-16 (inclusive) if a flame is not detected
In stage 4 if the air pressure switch goes high (air pressure present)
In stages 7-18 (inclusive) if the air pressure switch goes low (air pressure not present)
In stages 5, 7 and 8, stages 10-16 (inclusive) and stage 18 if a motor is not in the correct
position
In any stage, if an internal or external fault not previously mentioned occurs which may
affect the safe operation of the burner
5.7

Ratiotronic 6000 Inverter interface additional information

The Ratiotronic 6000 may have an optional daughter board within the main enclosure to allow
control of 1 or 2 inverter drives (daughter board dependent). Optionally the daughter board is also
available to allow feedback to be taken from directly from encoders measuring the speed of the
relevant motor, fan or pump shaft. There is also an option to allow the speed of an additional rotary
device to be monitored as an encoder input.
When not configured to control an inverter, the 4-20mA outputs may be configured to transmit
system variables as current outputs.
There are special wiring requirements for inverter feedback.
5.8

Post Purge Operation

If a post combustion purge is selected (with option parameter 7.9), a normal shutdown post purge
will be performed at low fire. The drives will move to the low fire position (if not already there)
and the post-purge time will then start. If the burner has turned off because the fuel profile selection
has been removed (i.e. set to NONE), no post-purge will be performed.
If the burner locks out at or after ignition, and a post-purge time has been entered, the controller
will also attempt a post purge. For a flame failure fault, the controller will attempt to post purge at
high fire. For all other faults, the drives will stay at the positions they were in when the lockout
occurred. In both cases, the post-purge time starts at the moment the lockout occurs the controller
does not wait for drives to position before starting the post-purge time.

5.9

Emergency Stop

The emergency stop or e-stop is a safety mechanism used to shut off the burner in an emergency
situation in which it cannot be shut down in the usual manner. Unlike a normal shut-down
switch/procedure, which shuts down the burner in an orderly fashion and turns it off without
damaging it, an e-stop is designed and configured to a) completely abort the operation at all costs
and b) be operable in a manner that is quick, simple (so that even a panicking user with
impaired executive function can operate it), and, usually, c) be obvious even to an untrained
operator or a bystander. The e-stop features a removable barrier to provide protection against
accidental activation.

Component Setup Parameters

Before the commissioning process of the burner can take place, there are certain components like
the Ratiotronic 6000, inverter (when fitted), etc, which will need to be setup. The burner should be
factory set; however, if the parameters have been erased for whatever reason, then this section can
be used as a starting point. Please note that a fuel / air profile will not have been setup. Please also
note that this parameter set should be used in conjunction with the manual.

Commissioning
7.1

Basic settings

It is essential that heat output of the appliance is known in order that the correct fuel input can be
calculated and set. If there is any doubt at all with regard to the appliance rating, the manufacturer
should be consulted before the burner is fired. The calorific value of the fuel must be known and
measurement of the fuel input should be by meter wherever possible.
Do not leave the burner firing at a rate which is known to be or which may be excessive, this will
result in damage to the appliance.
The nett flue gas temperature should be taken throughout the process of setting combustion. The
figure will vary according to the construction of the appliance but will normally be in the range
of 180 to 250C gross. if in doubt what this figure should be, please consult the boiler/appliance
manufacturer.

adjustments described below, there are no pre-determined positions applicable to a particular


burner. The scale reading only represents the air damper opening and not the firing rate!
Adjustments to the burner combustion head (for example the position of the flame ring in the nose
cone) may be necessary during the `setting up` of a burner.
Details of the settings for a particular burner , firing a given make of boiler, cannot be given in a
manual of a realistic size, however, standard basic settings are given in section 3 of this manual.
The size and relative position of the flame ring to the cone will have an appreciable effect on the
volume and velocity of air passing over the flame ring and this must be taken into consideration
when setting the combustion efficiency, with adjustments made as necessary. Adjustment of the
flame plate in relation to the nose cone can be made by loosening the screws holding the nose cone
in place and moving the nose cone backwards or forwards. After adjustments have been made,
ensure that screws are retightened and sealed in place.

NOTE:
ON ANY BURNER, AN ALMOST INFINITE COMBINATION OF COMBUSTION
HEAD COMPONENTS AND SETTINGS MAY BE USED TO ACHIEVE OPTIMUM
EFFICIENCY AND A FLAME SHAPE TO SUIT A VERY WIDE RANGE OF HEATRAISING APPLIANCES. THE MOST SUITABLE COMBINATION/SETTINGS
MUST BE DETERMINED DURING THE COMMISSIONING PROCEDURE.
7.2

Start Gas Heat Input

The table below summarises the ignition gas rates for different burner configurations.

The start gas heat input must not exceed 120kW or the value given by the equation :
ts x Qs 100
where:
June 13

56 of 129

TD5 Manual Rev 4

Operating Instructions For TD5 Dual Fuel Burner

ts is the safety time in seconds (s):


Qs is the maximum start gas heat input expressed as a percentage of the main gas rate
This approximates to an ignition rate of less than one third of the maximum firing rate.

If the burner is fitted with a separate pilot, the start gas heat input of the ignition burner must not
exceed the value given by the equation:
ts x Qs 150
where:
ts is the safety time in seconds (s):
Qs is the maximum start gas heat input expressed as a percentage of the main gas rate
7.3

Pre-commissioning

Note: The following tests must be carried out before commissioning is started.

Check that the appliance has been filled to the correct level
Check that the appliance isolating valves are fully open.
Where fitted, check that the flue damper is locked in the open position.
Check that the flue-draught stabiliser moves freely
Check that the gas supply is guaranteed and is at the correct pressure.
Check that the gas meter is the correct size.
Ensure that a manual gas isolation valve is positioned as close as possible to the burner and
that all gas pipe work is adequately supported.
Check that the external electrical connections are in accordance with the appliance
manufacturers wiring instructions.
Make certain that both fuel supplies and electrical supplies have been isolated.
Ensure that all gas, oil and electrical connections are tight as connections may come loose
during transportation.
Check the electrode gap to be 3mm at the narrowest point of the ignition electrode (twin)
and the tip of gas ignition electrode is 3mm away from the gas nozzle outlet.
Set the firing rate control switch to `low fire` to ensure that the burner will remain at low
fire after light-up.
Hot water boilers - check operation of the control and limit thermostats and that the boiler
has been filled with water.
Steam boilers - confirm the operation of the boiler feed pump and switch, and check that
the water level controls are working.

After the initial firing of the boiler, do not leave the unit operating in an unmanned boiler
house unless the boiler on/off control has been operated and set at a suitable figure and the
flame failure system on the burner has been checked.

Commissioning High Low and Pneumatic Modulation burners - Firing on Gas


Dry run

Note: Gas leak checks must be carried out using a suitable non-corrosive leak detection fluid.

Check for gas leaks on meters, governors and all mains gas supply pipe work.
Ensure all pipework leading up to the burner main gas valve has been purged according to
IGE/UP/1 Soundness testing and Purging of Industrial & Commercial Gas Installations
Ensure that the burner manual isolation valve is closed.
Check that all isolation valves in the main gas supply pipe work are open.
Remove or loosen the gas inlet pressure test point on the inlet side of the gas valve and open
the burner isolation valve until all air has been purged between the isolation valve and the
burner gas valve.
When this has been done, close the isolation valve.

Note: For the following tests a digital manometer will be required.


7.4.2

Check for leaks through the automatic gas valve.

Connect the manometer to the gas inlet test point on the automatic gas valve, open the manual gas
isolation valve for two seconds and then close it again.
The pressure shown on the manometer should remain constant.
7.4.3

Check rotation of burner fan motor

Switch on mains electrical supply. Momentarily 'blip' the burner fan connector and check rotation
of fan against direction of rotation sticker fixed to the rear of the burner. If motor rotates in the
wrong direction, changeover two of the incoming 3 phase supply. Repeat test to ensure rotation is
now correct.
7.4.4

Check for correct control sequence.


Open manual gas isolation valve for two seconds and then close it again, sealing the gas
between the automatic gas valve and the isolation valve.
Check that all time switches, room thermostats etc are in the `on` position and that the boiler
thermostat is set to the required temperature.
Switch on the mains electrical supply.
Select 'Gas' on the control system
The control box will commence the starting sequence which, depending on the control box,
will average:Prepurge time
Pre-ignition time
Pilot proving time

30 seconds
3 seconds
3 seconds

When the pilot proving time is reached, the automatic gas valve is energised and will
release the gas trapped between the valve and the closed isolation valve.
The burner will then stop because the pressure acting upon the gas pressure proving switch
will be reduced due to the isolation valve being closed.

Switch off the electrical supply on completion of this test.

Firing the burner


Ensure that the heat demand will allow an extended run, otherwise the burner may not
continue to fire throughout the time required for throughput measurement or commissioning
procedure.
Unscrew or loosen the outlet gas pressure test point on the gas valve and connect a
manometer.
Open the manual gas isolation valve.
Switch on the mains electrical supply and, if the control box is locked out (indicated by the
reset button being illuminated) press the lockout reset button. For electrical modulation
systems, please consult relevant manual.
Provided all control devices, thermostats etc are in the `on` position the burner control box
will start the operating sequence. For information relating to sequence of operation please
refer to section 5.
If the control sequence fails to start, check for correct setting of the gas pressure proving
switch.
The amount of gas flowing through the valve can be adjusted by using the
and

and is proportional to the amount of combustion air set by the air damper
motor. Cam setting for the air damper have been described in section 3.1.

is used to set the Low Fire rate and


is used to adjust the high fire
rate. A combination of the two settings will define an operating line between high fire and
low fire and the valve will maintain the air/gas ratio across this range. Full information on
the gas multiblock may be found in section 5.
Adjustment of
will have an effect on the setting of
and viceversa. It may take 3 or 4 fine adjustments at both high fire and low fire to ensure good
combustion at both ends.

ALWAYS CHECK THE COMBUSTION READINGS AFTER MAKING ADJUSTMENTS.


7.4.6

Combustion values and results

All combustion readings must be taken with an approved and correctly calibrated test kit.
The following combustion values should be reached:Low Fire
CO content
CO2 content
O2 content

0 - 20 ppm
9 - 11 %
5.4 - 2%

High Fire
CO content
CO2 content

10 - 11%
3.6 - 2%

In all cases the CO figure should not exceed 100mg/m3 maximum.


The nett flue gas exit temperatures should be taken throughout the process of setting the
combustion.
The figures will vary according to the type of appliance but for shell and sectional boilers will be in
the range of 180 - 250C gross.
Always keep the exhaust flue gas temperatures within the manufacturers recommended
range and ensure that the appliance is not over or under fired. Warm up the boiler, or raise
steam in accordance with appliance manufacturers instructions.

7.4.7

Adjustment of Gas Proving Pressure Switch

Loosen the screw in the gas inlet measuring point, connect a manometer and remove the clear
plastic cover from the gas pressure detector.
Switch on the burner and allow to fire.
Close the burner manual gas isolation valve slowly until the gas pressure is reduced to 50%.
Adjust the numbered black plastic ring on the gas pressure detector until the burner switches off.
Switch off the mains electrical supply to the burner, remove the manometer and seal the test point
screw.
Open the manual gas isolation valve and switch on the burner.
7.5

Oil Firing

All burners using oil as a fuel are fired before despatch as part of the standard test programme. This
does not mean that the pump pressure or any other adjustment applying to the oil system is
necessarily correct for the application.
Commissioning of the burner must include confirming that the nozzle size and characteristics are
suitable, calculating the fuel pressure required to give boiler M.C.R. and ensuring that, subject to
the requirements given below, the firing rate is correctly set.
The following text in included on the basis that the burner has been commissioned on gas and that
the boiler or appliance controls have been set.
The change - over of fuels is made by operation of the selector switch on the burner control cabinet.
This selector switch controls two contactors which electrically isolate one fuel from the other. On
electronic modulating burners, fuel selection can be made via the keypad.
For change-over to either fuel the switch selection is made through the 'off' position which causes
the burner control box to extinguish the flame before recycling.
The starting cycle will not immediately commence because it will be necessary for the burner
motor to slow down, reducing the air flow to a level which allows the air pressure switch to return
to the 'no' air position.
Note: Even on oil firing the leak detection cycle will be activated.
Before changing to oil firing, ensure that the oil pump has been properly vented and flooded.
No mechanical changes or re-adjustment of components are required for the burner to be changed
from one fuel to another.
Before the first firing on oil, it is always advisable for the availability of fuel, fire valves open etc,
to be confirmed.
Check that the burner will remain at low fire.
7.5.1

Setting the Firing Rate, High / Low Oil Burners

Step 1

Set the Low Fire air damper motor setting to between 1 and 2 on the scale and the high fire
air damper setting to between 5 and 6 on the scale. Set O2 to approx 3 on the scale.
Ensure that the High / Low switch is in the low fire position and switch on the burner.
Momentarily 'blip' the oil pump contactor to check for correct rotation of pump - ensure it
rotates according to rotation sticker fixed to rear of the motor. If rotation is incorrect, swap

June 13

60 of 129

TD5 Manual Rev 4

Operating Instructions For TD5 Dual Fuel Burner

over two pluses on the pump motor. Do not swap the mains electrical feed as this will also
reverse the burner fan motor rotation.
Start the burner and allow to go through pre-purge cycle. When the burner reaches its
ignition position, the ignition transformer is switched on, followed by the fuel pump motor,
and then the two solenoid valves, which should result in the burner lighting.
Set the pump pressure to approx 25 bar.
Adjust the low fire air position to give the following figures:
Carbon Dioxide: 11 - 14%
Smoke Number: 0 - 1 (
Excess Oxygen: 3 - 6%
Nett Flue Gas Temperature: 180 - 220c

Step 2

Allow burner to move to High Fire position. On its way to High Fire, the V2 Oil Valve will
energise, thus passing oil into the second nozzle.
Once at High Fire, adjust air damper to give combustion figures similar to above.
Switch between Low and high Fire, checking the firing rate and combustion, ensuring that
consistent figures and smooth, reliable light-up are being obtained.
Listen for signs of flame instability.
With the burner firing, remove and cover the photocell, ensuring that the burner goes
immediately to lockout.
Warm up the boiler or raise steam slowly, and in accordance with the manufacturer's
instructions.
After running for a reasonable amount of time, remove the combustion head and check for
any oil impingement, oil leaks, or fouling at the flame plate.
If necessary, make adjustments to the combustion head to cure this.

Check the flame ring for indications of overheating or impingement by the oil spray.
The basic, relative positions of the combustion head components are given in section 3 of this
manual, but the principles to be followed are that:1. The ignition electrodes must be positioned so that the spark, which `strikes` at the narrowest
point is blown forward by the combustion airflow on to the widest point of the `horns`. This
will ensure that the arcing takes place within the cone of atomised fuel, with a consequent
immediate ignition of the fuel.
Note that if the electrodes are set too far forward, they will be subjected to continuous
impingement by un-burnt fuel, some of which will carbonise, quickly reducing the intensity
of the spark and leading to poor ignition.
2. The relative position of the flame ring must give a flame which is `anchored` on to the front
face of the ring. The slotted vanes must be opened enough to allow the passage of an
adequate amount of air, which because of the swirl effect imparted, will be a major
stabilising factor. If the vane gap is irregular, the flame shape will be affected and soot will
build up at the points which restrict the air flow.
If the nozzle is too near to the flame ring, the flame will tend to `lift off`, giving very
unreliable ignition and a degree of instability which will make reliable operation, especially
when modulating from high to low fire.
3. The combustion head as an assembly, must be central in the draught tube, otherwise the air
velocity round the outside of the flame ring ( and therefore of the flame ) will vary in
June 13

61 of 129

TD5 Manual Rev 4

Operating Instructions For TD5 Dual Fuel Burner

relation to the gap through which the air is passing, causing poor flame shape and
impingement on the furnace structure.
4. Where divergent ( expanded ) nose cones are used, the cone itself should be positioned
relative to the flame ring and allow an adequate volume of air for combustion, but at the
same time, give a velocity which is high enough to assist in shaping the flame to give
optimum combustion.
While the design of the combustion head is the major factor in obtaining maximum
combustion efficiency, careful setting of the various component parts is also important.
When a burner has been in service for a period long enough for its performance to be
confirmed and before the settings have been disturbed, the relative dimensions of the
combustion head components should be recorded, so that after dismantling for maintenance,
correct reassembly can be assured.
Set the high/low thermostat or pressure switch to a lower figure than the on/off control. The
difference should take account of demand, bringing the burner back to low fire early enough
to slow down any boiler pressure or temperature rise if the heat demand is less than the
boiler M.C.R. and reduce the on/off cycling of the burner. Equally the burner must revert to
its high fire rate in time to maintain the pressure or temperature above a figure which is
determined by site conditions.

Electronic Modulating Burners

IMPORTANT!
When commissioning burners fitted with Electronic Modulating Control Systems, the
respective operating manuals must be followed. Only competent and trained personnel are
permitted to commission burners fitted with these controls.
7.6.1

Gas Butterfly Valve

Control of the gas supply to the burner is performed using a butterfly valve.
material specification of blade and spindle can be altered depending on gas
type, E.G. Stainless Steel can be specified for Bio-gas.
Check the butterfly valve has been correctly set to zero - Please consult
manual for details. More details on the butterfly valve can be found in the
component section.
7.6.2

Oil Metering Valve

The oil metering valve is used to control the amount of oil returning from the
spill back oil nozzle line. On spill back systems, the witness mark on the
inner spool piece must be set to 'B'.
Set the pointer to zero - Please consult manual for details. With the pointer set to zero, this
represents maximum flow through the metering valve. As the valve modulates up to 90, the valve
closes off, also closing off the return spill line from the oil nozzle line and
therefore increasing the firing rate. More details on the oil metering valve can be
found in the component section.
7.6.3

Adjustment of air pressure proving switch

Check the air pressure proving switch and, if necessary, set to 50% of
differential pressure.
Example of adjustment:Negative pressure ( ) measured
Positive pressure ( + ) measured
Differential pressure is Switch off point of pressure switch is

4 mbar
5 mbar
9 mbar
4.5mbar

From this point all commissioning procedures are dictated by the Ratiotronic 6000 manual.

Ratiotronic programming

The Ratiotronic 6000 burner control system is generally pre-programmed in the factory prior to
despatch. However it is important that the parameters are checked against the lists supplied with the
test data supplied with the burner.
The combustion engineer must be competent with such a controller and be fully trained in burner
commissioning before proceeding any further.
This manual must be used in conjunction with the Ratiotronic 6000 manual at all times.
7.6.5

Setting the servo motors

Please refer to section 5 of the Ratiotronic manual.


In general the drive servo motors are allocated as follows:
Drive 1: Gas Butterfly valve
Drive 2: Oil Metering Valve
Drive 3: Air damper servo motor
Drive 4: Inverter
7.6.6

Burner Commissioning

Important:
It is recommended for T5 burners, that a variable speed drive should be fitted to avoid
excessive axial forces on motor bearings when commissioning. Initially set the inverter speed
to approximately 30-35 Hz and use all available stroke on air damper first. Once the air
damper is fully open, any additional air required can be achieved by increasing the inverter
speed.

Burner Maintenance Schedule


REMEMBER!
ELECTRICAL AND FUEL SUPPLIES MUST BE ISOLATED BEFORE ANY
MAINTENANCE WORK IS CARRIED OUT ON THE BURNER.

The following schedules are only to be taken as a guide to those persons responsible for day to day
maintenance of the burners. Details of a service agreement covering the major items of routine
servicing are available on request.
An annual check by factory trained technicians is strongly advised.
All control circuit components, fire valves and other safety devices should have a functional check
at not greater than annual intervals.
Maintenance and inspection of boilers or other appliances must meet the requirements of the
manufacturers' schedules and of the insurers. It is usually more convenient to carry out burner
maintenance after the completion of the boiler inspection or cleaning, so that the burner can be fired
and the combustion reset to optimum figures.
The measurements given in the various combustion head drawings in this manual are to be regarded
as datum figures only. During commissioning, alterations may be made to the relative positions, or
to the components themselves, to suit the particular application.
Therefore, before dismantling the combustion head, take note of the measurements concerned and
record them on the manual's drawings. It is important that where possible components of the same
type and size are fitted as replacements.
The commissioning certificate for the burner should be available, to be used as a reference for the
fuel input and combustion figures which will give boiler MCR and the highest efficiency level.
8.1

Opening the Burner

To open the burner, the two nuts securing the hinge section to the fan section must be removed. The
burner will swing open on its hinge offering full access to all combustion head components.

June 13

66 of 129

TD5 Manual Rev 4

Operating Instructions For TD5 Dual Fuel Burner

When necessary checks/repairs have been carried out, close up in reverse order ensuring that the
locking nuts are fully tightened.
8.2

Minor Maintenance

(a) Check the operation of the flame failure system daily by deliberately locking out the burner.
This can be achieved by either removing the UV cell, or on burners fitted with ionisation
probes isolating the gas supply to the burner.
(b) Where fitted, check and regularly clean the UV cell window with a soft cloth.
(c) Inspect the burner control cabinet to ensure that all indicator lamps are serviceable.
(d) Make a general check for cleanliness and security.
(e) As convenient, make an inspection of the combustion head components for cleanliness,
security and serviceability.
(f) Check the main gas valves for external hydraulic fluid leaks.
(g) Confirm the security of all linkages, locking nuts and any component parts fitted to the
burner
(h) Where a micro-ammeter is fitted make regular checks to confirm that the UV cell output
does not significantly deteriorate.
8.3

Major Maintenance

Take adequate safety precautions against the small amount of gas which escapes when gas train
components are removed.
Carry out all of the maintenance tasks listed above, plus the following:
(a) Remove the upstream pilot valve and determine the amount of dust etc. which is present. If
a substantial quantity is found, remove the upstream main gas valves from the burner and
clean the seats (Unibloc only, see 'Unibloc' section of this manual for actuator removal).
The Siemens valve is a sealed unit any unauthorised opening will invalidate warranty.
(b) Check and clean any gas filters in the site pipework if significant quantities of dust or scale
are found. Make a request to the gas region for similar work on the service filter which
protects the meter
(c) Confirm correct operation of electrical components, e.g. control boxes, motor starters etc
and check tighten all electrical terminals.
(d) The nominal life of a U/V cell is 10,000 hours, subject to regular checks of the cell output
as registered on the micro-ammeter (which might indicate an earlier deterioration) the cell
should be changed every third year.
(e) Disconnect the air shutter linkage at the shutter spigot. Move the shutter by hand to confirm
freedom of movement. Clean as necessary (the PTFE bearing surfaces need no lubrication
but will require replacement when worn)
(f) Inspect the refractory of the burner mounting plate. Make good any defects in refractory or
sealing
(g) Ensure that boiler furnace sight glasses are clean and that their sealing is flue gas-tight.
(h) When the inspection and any rectification work has been completed on the burner/boiler,
bring the unit up to working temperature (slowly).
(i) With the boiler on line, confirm that the fuel throughput and combustion efficiency are
equal to the 'commissioned' figures.

12 Component Information
12.1 Unibloc
12.1.1 Unibloc General Arrangements

All Unibloc gas trains are manufactured and tested in accordance with EN 161 : 1991 'Automatic
Shut-off Valves for Gas Burners and Gas Appliances'
The Unibloc body is cast iron to BS 1452 grade 220 (the 100 N.B. body conforming to EN161 is
S.G. cast iron to BS 2789 grade 2712). All bodies are manufactured in one piece and are precision
machined to accept the various gas valve actuators that are described in section 2.
The standard unit is designed for use with 2nd and 3rd family gases and is fitted with plated carbon
steel valve seating rings. For other gas applications, e.g. bio or producer gas, the valve seating rings
are manufactured out of grade 321 stainless steel, because of the corrosive nature of these gases.
Where hydrogen sulphide (H2 S) is present in the gas advice must be sought from Dunphy
Technical Department.
A gas filter is fitted around the seating of the first stage valve to prevent foreign bodies entering the
Unibloc and causing valve seating problems. Gas filters are available to suit the various
specifications as required.
June 13

88 of 129

TD5 Manual Rev 4

Operating Instructions For TD5 Dual Fuel Burner

Valve actuators are supplied as standard with plated carbon steel seat assemblies fitted with nitrile
rubber seating discs.
If valves are required to be used on bio, producer or other corrosive gases, the valve seat assemblies
will be manufactured in 321 stainless steel with viton seating discs.
Installation
Select a location where the ambient temperature will be within the range of 0C to +50C, ensure
that the gas supply pipework is clean and contains no loose particles, fit valve to pipework so that
the gas flow travels in the direction of the arrows on the valve casing.
Please note that the 40, 50, 65, 80 and 100 mm N.B. valve bodies should be mounted with the inlet
flange facing vertically downwards. The 125 mm. N.B. valve body has an adjustable inlet flange
section that can be rotated to face in various directions
Due to the size and weight of the 100mm N.B. Unibloc, it is recommended that after installation
in the gas pipework the valve body is supported using the hole drilled in the valve body rib.

12.3 Siemens VGD20 and VGD40 Gas Valve Blocks


Double gas valves for use on gas trains, consisting of 2 class A
safety shutoff valves.
Suited for use in connection with gases of the gas families I...III.
The double gas valve is to be combined with 2 actuators of the
SKP series (e.g. to provide the functions of 2 safety shutoff
valves connected in series, with different types of gas pressure
governor if required).
Supplementary data sheets on the actuators is located at the end
of this section.
VGD20
To avoid injury to persons, damage to property
or the environment, the following warning notes
should be observed!
Do not open, interfere with or modify the double gas valve,
except when fitting the service replacement set! _ When used in
connection with gas, the valves constitute part of the entire safety
system. Fall or shock can adversely affect the safety functions.
Such valves may not be put into operation, even if they do not
exhibit any damage.

VGD40

Protect the actuator against excessive temperatures (caused by radiation, for example), to ensure the
maximum permissible ambient temperatures will not be exceeded.
Mounting notes
Ensure that the relevant national safety regulations are complied with. To mount the double gas
valve VGD20..., 2 flanges type AGA41... / AGA51... are required.
To prevent cuttings from falling inside the valve, first mount the flanges to the piping and then
clean the associated parts. On the gas train, the valve can be mounted in any position, but the
permissible mounting positions of the associated actuator must be observed (refer to the relevant
Data Sheet)
The direction of gas flow must be in accordance with the arrow on the valve body.
When used in combination with the SKP10..., SKP15..., SKP25... or SKP75...,
the minimum gas pressure switch must always be mounted upstream of the double gas valve!
The electro hydraulic SKP15... actuator, which is used for shutoff functions, must always be
mounted on the inlet side while the actuators with integrated governor (SKP25..., SKP75...,) must
always be fitted on the outlet side of the valve (with a contoured disk).
Check to ensure the bolts on the flanges are properly tightened . Check to ensure the connections
with all components are tight. Mounting and replacement of the actuator can take place while the
valve is under pressure. Sealing materials are not required. Ensure that the O-rings are fitted
between the flanges and the valve body.
Installation notes
Installation work must be carried out by qualified staff.
If the available gas pressure exceeds the valves maximum permissible operating pressure, the gas
pressure must be reduced by a pressure regulator upstream of the valve.

- Directive for pressure equipment 97/23 EEC
- Directive for gas appliances 90/396 EEC
Service notes
Check the correct functioning and the internal and external tightness of the VGD... each time a
valve has been replaced. The valve may only be replaced by qualified staff.
VGD20
The double gas valves VGD20... are of the normally closed type and have 2 disks, one noncontoured disk on the inlet side and one contoured disk on the outlet side. The stems are guided on
both sides of the disks, thus ensuring precise alignment and tight shutoff. The high closing force of
the return spring is supported by the prevailing gas pressure (class A to EN 161). A strainer on
the inlet side protects the valve and downstream controls against dirt. Valve body and connecting
flanges are made of die-cast aluminium, the seals of nitril rubber, and the stems of stainless steel.
The double gas valves feature a pilot gas connection Rp" . Gas valve, flanges and actuators are
supplied as separate
items. The 4 screws
required to fit the SKP...
to the valve are contained
in
the
terminal
compartment. No special
tools are required for
assembly.
The
connecting flanges have
a test point. They are
internally threaded and
supplied as separate
items, together with the
necessary accessories, such as bolts, nuts, seals, etc. The overall flange dimensions and bore-holes
are identical, so that all types of flanges can be fitted to the double gas valve, irrespective of
nominal size. This means that a 1" flange can be fitted to a 2" VGD... valve, and vice versa. Each
double gas valve requires 2 connecting flanges, which are to be ordered as separate items.

The double gas valves VGD40... are double seat disk valves of the normally closed type. The stems
are guided on both sides of the disks, thus ensuring a precise stroke and tight shutoff. To improve
the control performance, the disks at the bottom are pro-filed.
The patented double seats are closed by 2 springs. The high closing force of the return spring is
supported by the prevailing gas pressure (class A to EN 161). The spring of each stem exerts a
pressure on the disk so that there is a
defined closing force acting on each disk.
The surface area proportions of the 2 valve
disks per stem
are such that the closing force increases as
the inlet pressure increases (class A valve
to EN 161). A strainer on the inlet side
protects the valve and downstream controls
against dirt. The 4 screws required to fit the
SKP... to the valve are contained in the
terminal compartment. The double gas
valves DN40150 correspond to the
standard valve sizes of single valves (EN
558).
The VGD40... are supplied with a pilot gas
flange having a connection for the pilot
gas line and a connection for an impulse line. This impulse line connection between the 2 valves
and another impulse line connection on the outlet flange can be connected directly to the constant
pressure governor SKP20... fitted to V1 or V2.
A universal mounting plate facilitates attachment of a number of commercially available pressure
switches or valves proving devices. Both the pilot gas flange and the universal mounting plate are
exchangeable and can be fitted on either side of the valve.

12.3.1 Siemens SKP actuators

The combination of actuator and valve provides the following functions:


- Safety shutoff valve (SKP15...)
- Safety shutoff valve with gas pressure governor / controller (SKP25..., SKP55..., and SKP75...)
The electrohydraulic SKP... actuators together with the valves are designed for use with gases of
gas families I...III and air. They are used primarily on gas-fired combustion plant. The actuators
open slowly and close rapidly. They can be combined with any of the above mentioned valve types
and nominal sizes. The actuator can be supplied with end switch (for indicating the fully closed
position).
The SKP25... operates as a constant pressure governor with a setpoint spring.
Its field of use are primarily forced draft gas burners
- with mechanical fuel / air ratio control
- with electronic fuel / air ratio control
The SKP55... operates as a differential pressure
governor. Its field of use are primarily
- combustion plant with combined heat recovery
systems
- plant where pressure conditions in the burner and
in the combustion chamber do not change in
proportion to load changes - burners with adjustable
fuel / air mixing devices in the burner head - plant
with negative pressure levels on the gas or air side.
The SKP75... operates as a ratio controller and
provides control of the gas pressure
depending on the pressure of the combustion air,
ensuring that the gas / air ratio remains
constant across the entire load range. Its field of use are primarily modulating forced draft gas
burners.
To prevent injury to persons, damage to property or the environment, the following warning notes
should be observed! Do not open, interfere with or modify the actuators!

All activities (mounting, installation and service work, etc.) must be performed by qualified staff
Check to ensure that the impulse pipes are properly fitted and tight
Fall or shock can adversely affect the safety functions. Such actuators must not be put into
operation, even if they do not exhibit any damage.
If mains voltage is fed to the end switch via the second plug-in space, protective earth must be
connected to the actuator via the same plug.
Use of connectors conforming to DIN EN 175301-803-A is mandatory
The connectors used must have cable strain relief
The pumps stem must not be pulled out using the overstroke element since that part could
become loose.

If the available gas pressure exceeds the maximum permissible operating pressure of the valve /
SKP..., it must be lowered by an upstream pressure controller. The pressure switch for lack of gas
must always be fitted upstream of the gas valve when used in connection with the SKP The
inside diameter of the impulse pipes must be a minimum of 6 mm. The impulse pipes must be
installed such that the differential pressure can be acquired with no disturbance (unfavourable flow
conditions). Pressure test points must not protrude and be flush with the inside diameter of the pipe
or duct wall. The impulse lines to the governor / controller should be as short as possible, enabling
the governor / controller to respond quickly should sudden load changes occur.
Installation of impulse pipes
In the case of unsafe combustion chamber pressure pipes (e.g. resulting from potential leaks), the
setting must also be checked during operation without having the combustion chamber pipe
connected, especially with respect to maximum burner capacity. The impulse pipes must be fitted
such that the differential pressure can be acquired with no disturbance. With gas / air ratios > 3, the
June 13

110 of 129

TD5 Manual Rev 4

impulse pipes for the combustion air and the combustion chamber pressure must have an inside
diameter of at least 8 mm. The impulse pipe for the combustion chamber pressure must be fitted
such that the gases will cool down in the vicinity of the impulse pipe and condensing gases cannot
enter the controller but will return to the combustion chamber.
Recommendations:
The gas pressure should be acquired at a distance of 5 times the nominal pipe size downstream
from the valve.
Do not use the lateral test points on the VG... valve body for picking up the pressure
Considering the combustion chamber pressure
If the resistance value of the combustion chamber / heat exchanger / stack system is constant, the
combustion chamber pressure changes in proportion to the gas and combustion air pressure as the
burners output changes. In that case, the combustion chamber pressure need not be fed to the
SKP75... as a disturbance variable. However, if the combustion chamber pressure does not change
to the same extent as the gas and air pressure as this is the case in plants with flue gas fan or
modulating flue gas damper the combustion chamber pressure must be fed to the SKP75... as a
disturbance variable, enabling the controller to counteract.
Ensure that the relevant national safety regulations are complied with
The quadratic arrangement of the fixing holes allows the actuator to be fitted in 4 different
positions, each step being 90
The actuator can be mounted or replaced while the system is under pressure; sealing
materials are not required
Electrical commissioning may only be performed when the SKP is fitted to the valve;
otherwise, the SKP can be damaged.
Power is supplied and connection of the end switch is made directly via a connecting cable
(conforming to DIN EN 175301-803-A)
The end switch is factory set.
When power is applied, the pump will be activated and the control valve closed. Oil is now pumped
from the chamber below the piston to the pressure chamber above the piston. The oil pressure
causes the piston to move downward, thereby opening the valve against the pressure of the
closing spring. The pump remains energized until the closing command is given. When power is
removed, or in the event of a power failure, the pump will be deactivated and the control valve
opened so that the closing spring pushes the piston back. The return flow system is sized such that
the counterstroke required for reaching the fully closed position is completed within about 0.6
seconds.

12.5 Variotronic VT Oil Metering Valve


12.5.1 General Description
The Variotronic oil valve has been designed to work primarily in conjunction with electronic
positioning motors for the accurate control of fluids, fuel oils and liquids as defined in the
specification of recommended applications.
The design of the valve incorporates an adjustable linear characterising spool which enables the
valve to operate to a virtually linear characteristic. the characterising spool adjusts the output of the
valve in relation to the metering valve spindle. This changes the flow rate of the valve - thus
ensuring that the maximum angular rotation is utilised to optimise the flow accurately.
12.5.2 Construction
The valve construction consists of a carbon steel body which is
drilled at each end to accommodate the valve output port and the
valve retaining cap. The output port is secured by 6 screws with an
oil seal 'O' ring sealing the face of the end cap and valve body. An
identical construction is on the drive end of the valve.
The end cap has a duel function in retaining the spool sleeve and
providing a clamp for adjustment. The valve control flow spindle is
mounted directly through the spool and retained by the output port
plate. This also has a duel function acting as a surface thrust plate
for the valve control. When the valve is used in conjunction with an
electronic servo motor, there are mounting pillar locations provided
at 52mm hole centres (which is the European standard for the 4Nm
required torque for operating this type of valve.)
12.5.3 Valve Maintenance
All rotating valves do eventually require maintenance, but maintenance is only generally necessary
as a result of wear on oil seals or 'O' rings. as a general guide we recommend that 'O' rings are
normally re-placed every 2 years or 20,000 hours, but this could vary on the type of fuel being
used, generally when operating on heavy fuel oils the service frequency should be reduced to 12
months. The normal grade of 'O' ring seals fitted within the valve is Viton.
Special materials are available for corrosive or fuels that contain corrosive substances. The
general service and maintenance of the valve is a very simple operation and all the seals could be
changed within a matter of minutes. It is essential to ensure that all replacement seals are of the
correct specification, any deviation from the specification could lead to premature seal failure and
even leakage from either the valve spindle or retaining faces.
12.5.4 Changing Seals
It is recommended that a spare set of seals is always retained for service and maintenance of the
valve. Changing the seals is a relatively simple task.
A.
B.
C.
D.

Isolate all electrical and fuel supplies


Ensure that the valve is cold and that there is zero pressure within the hydraulic circuit
Disconnect the valve drain mechanism, either mechanically or via electric servomotor
Before dismantling the valve, ensure that the positions are appropriately marked so that the
re-assembly, particularly of the spool ring can be repeated to the original settings. Remove
the 2 pillars securing the index plate. this will then expose the 4 countersunk retaining
screws on the valve retaining cap. The valve can then be de-assembled.

E. The entire metering spindle and spool sleeve can be removed from the top plate. The
spindle has a Viton 'O' ring and there is a Viton 'O' ring between the cap and the valve body.
the shaft sealing is via 2 x 'O' rings which are submersed inside the spool sleeve.
There should not be any need to remove the bottom plate, although as a precautionary measure if
'O' rings are being replaced, it is good practice to replace all of the seals with the correct
specification for the valve.
12.5.5 Adjustment of the valve
Since the valve can operate either for spill back
nozzles or for direct metering of fuel, the
configuration can be changed by indexing the
pool witness mark to change the opening and
closed characteristic of the valve. In other words,
when the witness plate is indexed to position 'A'
the valve operates from closed to open over the
90 degree scale.
When the witness plate is indexed to position
'B', the valve operates from fully open to closed over a 90 degree movement. It is also possible to
change the flow characteristic of the valve by changing the position of the spool in accordance with
the details on the flow graph and scale plate indicators.
Valve adjustment is extremely simple. The design of the valve allows maximum travel from 0 to
90 degrees to control the modulating range of the burner. Depending upon the flow rate required
across the valve, this could control fuel flows in excess of 20:1 over the valve spindle angular
movement.
It is possible to adjust the output of the valve whilst still maintaining the large amount of
linearization by adjusting the spool ring on the inner scale plate. This is adjusted by loosening the
retaining cap and rotating the spool with a peg spanner. The index mark on the spool indicates the
spool position which can be read in conjunction with the flow charts on the opposite page.
12.5.6 Installation of the valve
The Variotronic valve can be mounted in any access. it is however,
essential that there is no pipe stress from either the inlet or discharge
port of the valve. Any external pressure caused from pipe stress could
distort or cause the valve to malfunction. Fixing of the valve is via a
pad with 2 off tapped holes, 5MM tapped directly into the valve body.
12.5.7 Valve Drive
While the Variotronic valve has primarily been designed to be driven
by an electronic positioning motor, it is possible to use the valve via
mechanical linkage. It is essential that there is zero play on any
connection between the valve spindle and the drive to the valve. This
is particularly important with electronic positioning since the valve is
normally controlled by a sensor or potentiometer mounted directly on
the servo motor shaft.
Zero hysteresis drive couplings must be used or, alternatively, a solid
coupling between the servo motor and valve spindle. Before commencing operation of the valve,
please ensure that there is oil or lubrication within the valve.
Do not run the valve dry as this could affect the long term accuracy. If the valve has to be operated
before the oil system has been fully primed, it is prudent to put lubricating oil in the valve ports.

12.6 DH Series Pump

`DH` SERIES GENERAL DESCRIPTION


The oil pump is a vital part of any oil fired heating plant, whether
being used as a transfer pump for pumping oil at low pressures or on
an oil burner delivering oil at 35 bar.
The Dunphy DH series pump has been specifically designed to
overcome the problems associated with current grades of fuel oils in a
variety of different situations, giving accurate pressure control
combined with reliability and performance.
The pump housing is Grade 14 cast iron that is precision machined to
accept the various combinations of gear sets that are available to suit a
wide variety of applications.
Exhaustive work on test rig and field trials that internal leakages in a
gear pump are most severe through the lateral running clearances.
They are less severe through the radial clearances, here, the leakage
path is long and the rotation of the gears opposes the pressure gradient.
Based on these observations a `Sandwich` construction of the gear-set
and the pumping chamber has been designed from first principles.
Calculations and computer modelling gave clear figures for the very
high bearing loads resulting from high liquid pressure acting on the
projected area of the gears. As a result, the design has catered for
bearings of large surface area. This must result in minimal rubbing
speed. They must also provide rigid shaft support with no appreciable
deflection.
The final design provides all DH series with gear-sets of nitrogen
hardened steel supported by an extremely strong bearing assembly.
It enables the standard unit to handle fuels with viscosities from 2 up to
2000 centistokes at pressures up to 35 bar and temperatures of up to
140C.
Single or tandem gear-sets can be offered as standard. Pumps with
special series gear-sets can be offered for specific applications.
The most characteristic and frequent failure of oil pumps is that of
pump seizure. In operation, a gear pump is required to deliver the
maximum possible volume for a given centre distance and face-width
of the gears. Losses due to internal leakage must be minimal and
sufficient only to provide adequate lubrication of the rotating parts.
However, the capacity of the gear-set depends on the depth of the gear
tooth. Design must therefore cater for a minimum number of teeth and
for minimum peripheral rubbing speeds
These parameters were used in making a choice between an internal
pinion and rotor format and an external gear-set employing straight
spur gear teeth of corrected involute form.
Dunphy engineers chose the external gear-set because it provides
maximum capacity for minimum peripheral rubbing speeds.
This factor is of vital importance in the elimination of pump seizure.

12.6.1 Pressure Regulation


A pressure regulating valve is provided as a
standard feature of the pump.
It is located within the pump body and
consists of a steel piston with P.T.F.E. wipers
that slides in a honed steel bore.
Pressure is exerted on the piston itself by a
spring, the loading of which is adjustable by
the user.
The pressure of the oil bears on the cross
sectional area of the piston.

The Dunphy DH Series of oil pumps has been


purposefully designed, in-house, to a
demanding brief, by experienced engineers
who have learned, at plant level, what
qualities the user demands of an oil pump.

When oil pressure and spring force balance,


the piston lifts and permits by-passed oil to
return to the suction port.
The accuracy of the machining and honing
ensures that the close fitting piston is kept in
contact with the cylinder bore by the pressure
of oil acting on its annular area
This combination of material selection and
fine tolerance eliminates edge filtration,
prevents sticking in operation and reduces
hysteresis effects to an absolute minimum.

This facility eliminates the need to insulate


the pump and the flexible's and ensures that
both are kept at the correct temperature.

As a result the DH oil pump has been


designed up to an extremely high quality
standard.
For heavy oil installations, the DH pump can
be fitted with a restrictor which will allow oil
from the ring main system to circulate
through the flexible oil lines and also the
pump body when the burner is not running.

Because running clearances in the pump


are at an absolute minimum, the
Volumetric Efficiency of the gear-set
becomes a function of the viscosity of the
liquid being pumped.
( See diagram below ).

1. PUMP CAPACITY
A number of variants can be offered. There are
two basic gear-sets available in the range, these
cover swept volumes from 290 to 4500 litres/hour
at 2 pole ( 2850 rpm and 3400 rpm ) speed.

2. CAPACITIES
Capacities are given for pumps running
at 2 pole speed ( 2850 rpm ) and a 50 Hz
electric supply.

SINGLE gear-set

SERIES

The SERIES arrangement provides a similar CAPACITY


to the SINGLE but the PRESSURE can be doubled
without any increase on the bearing load.

3. GEARWHEEL CAPACITIES
As stated, these give the full swept
volume of the pump.

TANDEM

The TANDEM arrangement DOUBLES the capacity


of the SINGLE gear-set

12.6.3 Installation Operation Maintenance


12.6.3.1 Installation
The DH Series can be supplied for either
flange or boss mounting to suit most
applications.
Pumps should be mounted with the shaft
horizontal, but the pump body may be turned
on its axis to allow easier access for pipe
connections etc.
It is essential that the pump and the motor
drive shafts are correctly aligned, that there is
no `play` in the drive connector and that there
is no end pressure on either drive shaft.
See the pump and motor arrangement
drawing at the bottom of the page.
Check that all joints on the oil supply pipes,
flexible oil lines etc. are properly sealed and
that the oil supply temperature and pressure
are correct ( see the relevant burner manual
for guidance notes on oil installation,
remembering that the maximum permissible
oil supply pressure to DH series pumps is 2
bar.
Residual fuel oils should be supplied to the
inlet port of oil burner pumps at temperatures
of:
40C for 200 secs R1 ( 13.5 cSt at 80C )
65C for 960 secs R1 ( 35 cSt at 80C )
80C for 4000 secs R1 ( 85 cSt at 80C )
When DH series pumps are used with
air/steam atomised burners burning residual
fuel oils the oil supply temperatures can be
reduced to:
10C for 200 secs R1 ( 13.5 cSt at 80C )
30C for 960 secs R1 ( 35 cSt at 80C )
45C for 4000 secs R1 ( 85 cSt at 80C )
H O U S IN G C O V E R
AND SCREW S

PARALLEL KEY

Distillate fuel oils should be supplied to the


pump inlet port at a slight positive pressure.
Where suction lift is required, the Dunphy
technical department should be consulted.
Residual fuel oils should be supplied to the
pump inlet port at a pressure between 1 and 2
bar.
12.6.3.2 Filtration
Filters must be fitted in the oil supply system
to prevent foreign matter entering the pumps
and possibly affecting performance or
causing physical damage.
All DH1 fuel are supplied with internal
filters, however, when pumps are used with
residual fuel oils, it is recommended that this
filter is removed after approximately one
weeks running when it is certain that any
swarf or other foreign matter has been
thoroughly flushed out of the oil supply lines.
DH2 pumps do not have an integral filter.
12.6.3.3 Oil Re-Circulation
When supplied for use on heavy oil
installations all `DH` series pumps are fitted
with a restrictor with a 4mm diameter orifice
fitted between the oil inlet and ring main
return ports.
This allows the flow of oil to circulate from
the ring main system, through the flexible oil
lines and pump and into the ring main return,
effectively keeping both the pump and the
flexible oil lines warm, eliminating the need
for lagging and trace heating.
The pumps can be fitted with restrictors with
a larger orifice size, but care must be taken
when fitting these that the re-circulation does
not depress the ring main capacity as this is a
direct bleed between the flow and return.

TYPICAL ARRANGEMENT OF PUMP, MOTOR AND DRIVE COUPLING

June 13

All `DH` series pumps with the prefix `P` are


fitted with a manifold on the oil return port
that allows a flow of oil back into the return
while the burner is `purging`.
This allows the pump to automatically prime
itself every time the burner goes through its
starting cycle and eliminates the need for
mechanical
venting.
