32 tip burners

[sombraenk]

Hi all

I recently started using 32 tip burners but, my post are staining black, like black smoke sticking to the bottom of my pots, what can I do to avoid this problem?

Do I have to calibrate or adjust the burners?

Thanks

The air/fuel ratio is off. The flame should be almost entirely blue/white. Yellow means there isn't enough air being mixed in, so adjust the air inlet to allow more in.

^true^

But there is no fuel/air mix adjustment available with multi-tip jet burners. The individual jets have to be proper for the fuel used, and propane jets have smaller orifices than natural gas jets. Switching fuels means switching all the jets...

Cheers!

You can remove jets, solder the orifice hole shut, then drill the correct orifice size. I had to do that on a cheap 20 tip burner I bought. I called a buddy in HVAC and he told me the bit size. Mine was NG, but propane would work the same. It would just have a different size.
