SECTION VIII - SERVICING THE BURNER
This section is intended as a guide in making some repairs and adjustments to the power burner. Many of
the repairs will require the service of a skilled heating service technician. For more information refer to
the burner I.O.M.
Power Flame Burners
1) GAS-ELECTRIC IGNITION
The gas-electric pilots used on Power Flame burners are either flame rod or scanner design.
2) POOR FLAME SIGNAL
Try adjusting needle valve or pilot pressure regulator. Should this not be successful, check the primary pilot
air. If neither of these methods improve the reading, inspect the flame rod position.
The spark is to arc against the outside radius of the pilot assembly case (not the pilot head nozzle). The
normal spark gap should be 1/16" – 3/32". See the drawings for pilot assembly for the J-Burner.
