Prepare Hole in Combustion
Chamber Wall
Cut or drill a hole of the proper diameter for the sight pipe in the
wall of the combustion chamber at the selected location. Flare
the hole to leave room for small adjustments of the sighting
angle. The taper of the hole should be about 1 in. for every 3
in. (25 mm for every 76 mm) of wall thickness.
Mount Sight Pipe
Thread one end of the pipe to fit the mounting flange, union, or
required coupling. Cut the pipe to the desired length (as short
as practical) and at an angle so it fits flush with the wall of the
combustion chamber. Tack weld the pipe to the wall in a trial
position. Do not weld the sight pipe permanently in place until
after completing the Adjustments and Checkout.
NOTE:If you use 118367A Swivel Mount and you are positive
about the location and sighting angle, you can permanently
weld the pipe.
Install Fittings
In some cases, the sight pipe does not directly fit the C7061
mounting flange or union. Also, it may be desirable or
necessary to ventilate the sight pipe. You may also want to use
a swivel mount or an antivibration mount. Each of these cases
can require additional fittings.
Reducer
For sight pipes of larger diameter than the mounting flange
connector or union, install a reducer as illustrated in Fig. 5. The
reducer requires a close nipple with 3/4 in. NPT external
threads:

Sight Pipe Ventilation
It may be necessary to ventilate the sight pipe to cool the
detector or to clear a viewing path through UV radiation
attenuating material.
For a negative pressure combustion chamber, drilling a few
holes in the section of the sight pipe outside of the combustion
chamber allows air at atmospheric pressure to flow through the
sight pipe and into the chamber. A perforated pipe nipple
between the sight pipe and the detector can also be used.
For a positive pressure combustion chamber, connect a supply
of pressurized air from the burner blower to flow through the
sight pipe and into the chamber. The air pressure must be
greater than the chamber pressure.
Antivibration Mount
The detector withstands normal burner vibration. If the
vibration is excessive, 123539 Antivibration Mount is available.
(For mounting details, see form 60-0361.) If you use this
mount, install it before positioning and sighting the detector.
Mount the Detector (Fig. 5-8)
Mount the detector onto the sight pipe, reducer, or other fitting
(see Fig. 5-8).
The C7061 Self-Checking Flame Detectors incorporate an
oscillating shutter mechanism and, therefore, require special
consideration for mounting positions other than vertically
sighting downward or upward, as illustrated in Fig. 6. The
C7061 has notch and arrow indicators (see Fig. 7) on the
faceplate to facilitate mounting in positions other than those
shown in Fig. 6. The notch and arrow must be vertically aligned
with the notch in the up position and the arrow pointing
downward (see Fig. 7). The C7061 must be mounted with the
conduit opening located approximately 45 degrees below the
horizontal (see Fig. 7).
