TRH System Start-Up

Install Airtronic Burner in Tray Ration Heater
Fill Tray Ration Heater with water so low water sensor is completely covered
If the fuel can has a leak proof cap installed, remove it and replace it with the fuel line adapter kit. Check to be sure the plastic dip tube securely attached to the adapter cap.  (Figure 4-1) NOTE: always ensure low water sensor is covered to preclude heat damage to system by running when dry.
Vent fuel can by loosening vent cock on top of the adapter kit (turn completely counter-clockwise to full open position). (Figure 4-2)
Ensure fuel filter is not clogged and fuel lines are connected properly and not kinked.
Connect power cord to top of Airtronic Burner control box base
Plug in power cord from the Tray Ration Heater electrical control box to a 120 VAC, 60 HZ outlet.
Pull red, pull-on/push-off switch on Tray Ration Heater to ON position.  Ensure circuit breaker is depressed.
Prime the Airtronic Burner during pre-purge by depressing the starting button inlet valve for 10 seconds.  Simultaneously close off the finger priming port with a finger to further enhance the priming process. (Figure 4-4) If Airtronic Burner does not start, the Airtronic Burner will go into “lockout” and the reset button on the control box will illuminate with a red LED light. Wait 60 seconds, depress reset button, and repeat prevoius step In a dry system (no fuel in burner or fuel line), the above-mentioned priming process may be required up to 3 times.  If the burner does not prime and light off after 3 priming attempts, trouble-shooting steps should be taken to determine the cause.
