In dealing with a Hotsy 9450 boiler with a becket burner I have run into an issue.When the burner cylcles to off (discharge water to temp),I am getting blue white smoke from the chimney.( Afterburn old risidual fuel I'm assuming)
Electodes new,transformer strong,air settings ok etc.When the burner ignites it comes on instantly as soon as the fuel selenoid light indicates fuel to the nozzle with no hesitation, and burns nice and even. Intial puff when igniting comparable to a 5 gallon pail worth of smoke and burns clean from there until it shuts off.
I've dropped the burner assembly and test run laying on the floor outside ( burner not bolted into coil housing) the electrodes burn nice and blue/strong with good stretch when the fan blows through spark, the fuel tip sprays nice with good atomization.The fuel pressure set to spec. @ 125 PSI, air band and shutter adjusted to burn just off soot during ignition.Checked fuel selenoid function with the thermostat and it shut completely with no extra leakage when in the off position (not energized)
The coil is new 2 weeks ago and visual inspection today down the chimney shows no significant sooting of the coil enough to choke it out.
Spoke to hotsy dealer and they are at a loss and have nothing else to offer over what I did.Called the 800 line for becket burners and of course they are Closed for the day.
Okay guys....What's the deal with afterburn when all setting appear to be OK and the burner runs good when its running.??
I'm waiting on Z dimension settings for this model "HO-1601" unless you happen to have them kicking around in your head???!!!!
