The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) guidelines require any company operating combustion heat processing equipment to undergo an annual burner safety examination. This examination should only be performed by a licensed Gas Technician. Ordan Combustion Services offers a valuable technical consulting program to ensure the continuous safe operation of your combustion heat processing equipment. We utilize the following "21-Point Safety Check" to assure your combustion equipment is reliable and operating in a safe manner. During the safety examination we document the burner settings, control settings, operating temperatures, safety "limit" results, and include our professional recommendations. |
 |
| Your Ordan "21-Point Safety Check" includes the following: | |
 |
1. | Visual Inspection of all components. To ensure
the following: Components are installed to manufacturers and local safety code specifications. |
|
2. | Check for dirt accumulation on the burner, air and gas manifolds, etc. |
|
3. | System Run Check - Your combustion system is energized. - Normal start-up procedure is initiated and monitored. |
|
4. | Simulate air failure to prove Combustion Air Switch. |
|
5. | Simulate low gas pressure to prove Low Gas Pressure Switch. |
|
6. | Simulate high gas pressure to prove High Gas Pressure Switch. |
|
7. | Simulate excessive temperature to prove High Limit Temperature Switch. |
|
8. | Simulate flame failure to prove Flame Safeguard. |
|
9. | Simulate exhaust air failure to prove exhaust air pressure switch. |
|
10. | Simulate any other switch or interlock installed, to prove its proper working order; including: Low Fire Start Switch, High Fire Purge Switch, Low Water Switch, Door Switch, Speed Switch, Drives, etc. |
|
11. | Leak test all safety shutoff valves. |
|
12. | All manual gas cocks are tested for proper operation. |
|
13. | Inspect electrical contacts for dirt and signs of wear. |
|
14. | Check Pilot pressure for proper settings. |
|
15. | Check Burner pressure for proper settings. |
|
16. | Check ignition electrode for dirt and deterioration. |
|
17. | Check flame detection equipment (Flame Rod, UV Scanner, IR Scanner). |
|
18. | Test Temperature Control - Ensure it drives the burner from low fire to high fire. |
|
19. | Test all mechanical fastening hardware for tightness. |
|
20. | Check that purge time is as per original setting. |
|
21. | Check maintenance or stock room for minimum required spare parts to ensure safe operation. |
