Using a 5/8" wrench on the heater swivel nut and a 1/2" wrench on one of
the flats of the tapered union fitting, tighten the heater swivel nut
one-quarter turn past finger-tight. Using a 5/16" wrench on the ¼" Burner
adapter, rotate this fitting so that the brazed H
2
line is aligned 180 °
(opposite) from the oxidizer Inlet port.
11 Making sure that the Burner inlet fitting does not loosen, use a 1/2" wrench
on a flat of the tapered union fitting and 9/16" wrench on the 1/4" Swagelok
nut of the Burner adapter to tighten the tapered union fitting 1/4" past
finger-tight.
12 Rotate the quartz heater assembly so that the thermocouple and heater
leads are in the same plane and pointed in the same direction as the peg on
the Burner inlet fitting. Turn the splitter fitting so that H
2
inlet port is also
aligned with the peg on the Burner inlet fitting.
13 The assembled Burner is now ready for re-installation on the GC.
