I bought a used Silver Eagle Manufacturing Propane Burner setup. To no avail, I cannot get these things to work. I am done with the Propane Route. (all propane computers, transformers, igniters, valves, propane tanks and truck mounts for the propane tanks are for sale)
I would like to convert this setup to a diesel fired unit. Is it just simple as getting a complete burner assembly, mounting it, plugging it in, connecting flow switch and thermostat and I am off and running?
I would like to cut the whole thing in half since it is two burners in tandem as one unit, which makes moving this very difficult. I was going to weld up a frame, with the mounting plate for the burner assembly, and see if I can get it to work. I will be running 8gpm @ 3000 psi through it.
What can I expect to have difficulty with? The coil has small spacers in it which I have not seen before. Will this create a problem keeping heat in the coil? Can this be corrected with a plate inside the burner to keep heat in?
This is getting old fast and I want to get moving on this.
Thanks in advance for any replies,
Mike
