1.7.1 Volumetric Method to Verify the Flame Setting, Mathematical

WARNING! No other gas equipment can be in operation during this procedure.
Calculation of flow rate V in ft

This is the natural gas needed in 1 hour by a N/5.5 G (1 burner) at full power.
The time and the flow measurements should be taken at the gas (flow) meter with a
chronometer (stop watch).
To run the test, open the manual gas cock valve, start up the unit according to the start-up
instructions.
Allow the unit to pre-heat (burn) for 10 to 15 minutes. Verify that the flow rate is calibrated
to the appropriate flow rate indicated in the table.
