BECKETT OIL BURNER SERVICE | Genisys 7505, Tuning, and Maintenance

Описание

This video covers burner maintenance and service on a Beckett oil burner, including cad cell cleaning, burner nozzle replacement, electrode settings, burner tuning, as well as setting the air doors.

Be sure to refer to the manufacture guidelines in regard to safety and burner specifications. If at any time a burner does not appear to be operating properly, contact your qualified service agency for consultation. Any misuse of a burner could result in severe personal injury or substantial property damage.

Tools needed for servicing your Beckett oil burner include: pressure washer manual, burner manual, flat head screwdriver, 5/16" nut driver, 11/16" wrench, 7/16" wrench, 5/8" wrench, smoke test kit, voltmeter, and a fuel pressure gauge (300psi).

For pressure washers that meet UL 1776 standards, a burner control like the Beckett Genisys 7505 must be used. The function of the burner control is to manage the proper start-up sequence of the burner, and to monitor burner parameters.

The Genisys 7507 burner control is located above the blower motor. Under normal operation, the green LED will be illuminated. Reset the burner control by pushing the red LED button on the top of the burner control.

There are several issues that could cause the burner control to lock out. The first thing to check is if the cad cell is seeing a flame. The cad cell is located under the igniter. Remove it by loosening the two upper screws on the igniter door and swinging it open. Clean the cad cell with a Que tip.

Next, check the burner electrodes and nozzle. The electrodes are located inside the gun assembly and can be slid out by first removing the fuel line and round nut. Check the electrodes closely for cracks. Cleaning them with brake cleaner makes it much easier to see if there are any cracks.
With the electrodes removed, it is a good time to check the burner nozzle(s). Replacing the burner nozzle is a simple as removing and replacing it with a 5/8 wrench.

Replacing the electrodes requires setting the proper gap. This is done by loosening the lock nuts and moving the electrode tips to the correct position as stated in the burner manual.

Check your fuel pressure by installing your fuel gauge into the test port and comparing the reading to your machine specifications, found in your equipment manual.

After your burner is running, it is important to tune the burner for optimum performance. This is done by adjusting the air bands on the burner. Start by inspecting the exhaust of the machine, and increase the openings of the air bands until any black smoke is minimized. To reach optimum performance, use a smoke test kit like this Bacharach Smoke Tester to adjust the burner air bands down to zero smoke.

It’s important to note that in the case of this Sioux Dakota II pressure washer, the burner is set up for 65 degree inlet air from the factory. Your burner settings, such as fuel pressure or burner nozzle selection, might differ based on different inlet temperatures. Elevation can also affect your burner settings.
