A. GENERAL INFORMATION
The Hauck Burner Control System (BCS) provides burner management and temperature control
of a single pilot ignited burner firing on natural gas, oil, or liquid propane (LP). The spark
ignited, gas fired pilot is interrupted after the main burner flame has been established. Flame
supervision is provided by a Honeywell RM7800 series flame relay combined with an amplifier
module and one or two ultra-violet (UV) flame detectors.
A Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) supervises burner operation and provides three
process control loops for material temperature, stack temperature, dryer draft. The PLC is
coupled to a touchscreen display to supply the operator with system status and fault
annunciation.
Two Hauck P1161 series instruments are provided for temperature indication and over-
temperature protection. The thermocouple of the MATERIAL TEMPERATURE instrument is
positioned to read the temperature of the material as it exits the dryer, while the STACK
TEMPERATURE instrument’s thermocouple senses the temperature of the exhaust gases. The
instruments display the process temperature and provide temperature inputs to the PLC which,
in turn, is electronically linked to the burner control motors to automatically adjust the burner
firing rate and maintain process temperature near setpoint. The Operator can assign control of
the burner to either thermocouple.
The alarm contact of the STACK TEMPERATURE instrument is used to shut down the burner if
the preset high temperature limit is exceeded. The PLC also provides high stack and material
temperature alarms, which drive the burner to low fire if their alarm setpoints are exceeded.
WARNING
This equipment is potentially dangerous with the possibility of serious personal injury
and property damage. Hauck Manufacturing Company recommends the use of flame
supervisory equipment and fuel safety shutoff valves. Furthermore, Hauck urges rigid
adherence to National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) standards and insurance
underwriter’s requirements. Operation and regular preventative maintenance of this
equipment should be performed only by properly trained and qualified personnel.
Annual review and upgrading of safety equipment is recommended.
CAUTION
The STACK alarm setpoint is factory set at 400°F (240°C). If the system is
equipped with a fabric dust collector (baghouse), consult the manufacturer
for recommended baghouse temperature limitations. Refer to Appendix E
for entering the desired alarm setpoint.
NOTE
High temperature limits will not prevent baghouse fires. They will, when
properly installed and adjusted, shut off the burner when a given
temperature setpoint is exceeded. Outside factors such as chemicals, bag
contamination or other ignition sources are beyond the control of the burner
management system.

BCS6000C-9
The panel also includes special provisions for adjustable valve characterization which can be
utilized to reduce stack emissions. Refer to Section F, Valve Characterization, for details.
Available options include 4-20mA outputs for dryer draft and combustion air Variable Frequency
Drive (VFD) control, 4-20mA inputs for fuel flow monitoring and totalization, data logging, and an
Optimizer mode.
B. RECEIVING AND INSPECTION
Upon receipt, check each item on the bill of lading and/or invoice to determine that all
equipment has been received. Examine all parts to determine if there has been any damage in
shipment. If equipment is to be stored prior to installation, provide a dry storage area.
C. INSTALLATION
1. Locate the tabletop panel on a firm support in an area that is protected from the weather
and free from vibration. The drop-in version is designed to install in an existing
enclosure. Reference THE Panel Assembly sales drawing for required cutouts and
mounting dimensions.
2. Provide 120Vac single phase grounded neutral power to the burner control panel. It is
recommended that the customer provide a master disconnect switch to interrupt power
service to the panel. Maintain polarity as indicated on the drawings provided when
connecting the main power source to the panel.
3. Install a heavy gauge (No. 12 AWG minimum) ground wire between the panel ground
connector and ‘Earth’ ground.
4. Wire the fuel valves, valve position limit switches and fuel pressure limit switches as
shown on the external component wiring diagram.
5. Install the exhaust fan flow limit switch in the dryer exhaust duct as shown in Appendix
F. Wire the normally open contact of the exhaust flow limit to the appropriate terminals
in either the burner junction box or the BCS control panel.
IMPORTANT
For optimum use of the BCS panel, it is suggested that the drawings
provided by Hauck be referred to for limit switch and valve installation, and
wiring. In the event that a recommended switch or valve is not used, it may
be necessary to connect jumper wire(s) between appropriate terminals in
the control panel or burner junction box. Such determination remains the
responsibility of the Customer, based upon his application, accepted safe
installation and operating procedures, and any applicable insurance
guidelines or governmental regulations.
IMPORTANT
Operating specifications of 32 to 131°F (0 to 55°C) and 30 to 95% relative
humidity (non-condensing) should be considered in selecting a suitable
location for the control panel.

Page 4
BCS6000C-9
6. Install the stack temperature thermocouple in the dryer exhaust duct to sense exhaust
gas temperature. See Appendix G. for installation instructions.
7. Install a Hauck Rapid Response material temperature thermocouple in the material
discharge chute to sense the temperature of the material leaving the dryer. See
Appendix H. for recommended installation.
8. Connect the thermocouples to the appropriate terminals in the BCS control panel using
thermocouple cable of the same type as the Material and Stack thermocouples.
9. For a batch plant or parallel flow drum mix plant a pressure tap for the dryer draft
transmitter should be located in the 2 or 10 o’clock position on the dryer breech. Locate
the tap midway between the outer edge of the breeching and the outer edge of the
combustion chamber or shell. Cut a hole to accommodate a 1" (DN 25) pipe coupling
angled downward at approximately 30° from horizontal. For a counter-flow drum mix
plant, the tube should be extended so that it ends near the nose of the burner.
10. Mount the draft transmitter on a vibration free support, shielded from direct flame
radiation. The operating temperature range is -20 to 180°F (-29 to 82°C). Connect the
transmitter manifold to the LOW pressure tap and leave the HIGH pressure tap open to
atmosphere as a reference. The open tap must be shielded from wind and other
disturbances and should not be in a position where it can collect dirt or water. The
manifold moisture drain should be positioned vertically down.
11. Install the flame scanner(s) on the burner and wire them to the appropriate terminals in
the burner junction box. Reference burner instructions for scanner installation details.
12. Refer to the external component wiring diagram for interconnection between the burner
junction box and the BCS panel terminal strips.
13. Set the purge timer 1TR for the required purge time.
IMPORTANT
Thermocouple cables must be separated from AC power and control
wiring to avoid interference and nuisance shutdowns. Observe polarity
when making thermocouple connections. Regardless of thermocouple
type, the red wire is always negative.
IMPORTANT
The flame scanner, draft transmitter, and control motor position feedback
signals should be run in a separate harness from the burner junction box
to the BCS control panel. These cables may be run along with thermocouple
cables but must be separated from all other AC power and control wiring. If
shielded cable is used, only one end of the cable shield should be
grounded. Use one of the ground terminals in the BCS control panel for this
purpose.
IMPORTANT
Before igniting the burner, the dryer must be purged to remove possible
accumulation of combustible gases. A minimum of four complete air
changes must be supplied. Multiply the total system volume (dryer, baghouse
and exhaust ducts) in cubic feet (meters) by four. Divide this value by the burner
air capacity in cubic feet (meters) per minute. The result will be the required
purge time in minutes.

Page 5
BCS6000C-9
14. Be sure that all equipment and components have been installed in accordance with the
manufacturer's instructions.
15. Verify the positions of the FUEL SELECT, AIR SELECT, and AUX SELECT switches on
the printed circuit board. The switches must be set to be compatible with the burner
control motor(s). Select GND for medium torque actuators (Barber Colman EA 57).
Select 120V for high torque actuators (Barber Colman EA 71 or EA 73)
16. Verify all wiring and tighten connections.
17. Clean all traps and filters.
18. Check all fuel and air supply lines for leaks.
19. Verify all pressure settings.
D. ADJUSTMENTS & FINAL CHECKOUT:
Record all settings on the Configuration Record Sheet provided in Appendix B.
The touchscreen provides access to the system operating parameters. Note that touching any
of the numeric displays with white text on a blue background will provide a pop-up keypad for
numeric entry. The use of a pencil eraser, wooden or plastic stylus is recommended for more
precise selection. In order to extend the life of the display, it can be set to enter a screen saver
mode after the burner is stopped. Enter the time in seconds on the MAIN MENU screen. Note
that the screen saver is disabled if set to 10.0 seconds or less. Simply touch the display to de-
activate the screen saver.
MOTOR CALIBRATION & SETUP Screen
Press the MAIN MENU key to access the menu screen, then press the MOTOR CALIBRATION
& SETUP button to display the calibration screen.
IMPORTANT
Periodic testing of the flame supervision components, safety limits and
interlocks should be conducted to insure proper operation. Testing should be
performed by personnel who are familiar with the equipment and the functions
of the various controls. See Appendix J for a checklist and procedure.
IMPORTANT
The burner control motors and the combustion air VFD, if applicable,
incorporate position feedback signals. For the control motors, a 5 VDC supply
voltage from the panel is connected to the slidewire in order to generate 0 to 5
VDC position feedback signals. If a combustion air VFD is used, a 4-20mA
speed reference signal must be supplied to the PLC. The following calibration
procedure must be performed before operating the burner for the first time.
Recalibrate annually or whenever a control motor or VFD is serviced or
replaced.

Page 6
BCS6000C-9
MOTOR CALIBRATION
The control motor DEADBAND settings determine the allowable deviation of actual
control motor position from setpoint without corrective action by the motor control
outputs (minimum 0.5%, maximum 5.0%, typically set at 1.0%). These parameters
should be set as low as possible without causing the control motors to ‘hunt’ excessively.
Touch the numeric displays and use the popup keypad to enter a deadband setting for
each motor.
Press the ZERO button to drive all control motors closed for calibration and record the
feedback signals. Confirm that all motors, and the combustion air VFD, if applicable,
have reached their low fire positions, or minimum frequency, before beginning span
calibration.
Press the SPAN button to drive the motors open and record the resulting feedback
signals. Verify that all motors and the combustion air VFD, if applicable have fully
opened, or reached their maximum frequency, before pressing the OFF button to store
the span values and end motor calibration.
BURNER OPERATING PARAMETERS
Set the BURNER OUTPUT LIMIT at 100.0% for normal operation. This value may need
to be lowered to accommodate system limitations.
If the optional gas flow display and totalizer are installed, set the GAS PRESSURE to
match the pressure, in osig, measured just upstream of the gas orifice flange assembly.
TEMPERATURE DISPLAY
If the Material and Stack temperatures displayed on the touchscreen are significantly
different from the instrument displays, a positive or negative BIAS value may be entered
for each instrument.
CONTROL LOOP TUNING Screen
After setting and recording all parameters on the Motor Calibration & Setup screen, press MAIN
MENU key to return to the menu screen then select the CONTROL LOOP TUNING button to
display the loop tuning screen. This screen is used to enter tuning constants for each of the
three PID control loops. MATERIAL or STACK temperature control may also be selected on
this screen. Manual control of the burner firing rate and exhaust damper control motors are also
provided. Note that the tuning parameters for the draft control loop are different for the standard
duplex time proportional and the optional 4-20mA control modes.
Enter a GAIN setting for each loop. Note that Gain = 100/Proportional Band% or
Proportional Band% = 100/Gain. For example, a Gain of 2 is equivalent to a
Proportional Band setting of 50%
Enter a DEADBAND setting (°F for temperature and "WC for draft) for each loop. This
value should be as small as possible without excessive ‘hunting’ by the control
actuators.
Enter a RESET setting for the Material and Stack control loops. Note that Reset is
expressed in minutes per repeat rather than repeats per minute. Therefore, the smaller
the setting the more frequently reset action will be repeated.
Enter a RATE setting (seconds) if desired for Material and Stack control. Note that Rate
tends to de-stabilize the control and may be left at zero.

Page 7
BCS6000C-9
Enter CYCLE time settings (seconds) for the Draft control loop. This loop provides
duplex time proportional control outputs for the exhaust damper actuator and has
separate Open and Close cycle times similar to the DPS instrument it replaces.
AUTO TUNE
The Material, Stack and Draft control PID loops are each equipped with an AUTO TUNE button.
Please note the following before initiating the auto tune procedure:
Make a note of the existing tuning parameters on the Control Loop Tuning Screen before
beginning Auto Tune. Factory default settings are given in the Configuration Record
Sheet.
Only one loop at a time may be tuned.
The process should be operating under normal conditions before beginning the Auto
Tune procedure. Do not change material feed rate, mix or setpoint while Auto Tune is in
progress.
Stabilize the temperature or draft as close as possible to the setpoint in MANUAL, then
switch the loop to AUTO and press the AUTO TUNE button to begin.
For the Material and Stack temperature control loops, burner OUTPUT must be less
than 60% for the Auto Tune sequence to be preformed. Auto Tune will increase burner
output by 10% and calculate new gain and reset values based on the process response.
Auto Tune will be complete after the associated temperature has increased by
approximately 40°F (4°C). Consult Hauck’s Service department if a larger or smaller
step is required.
For Draft control, the loop will be cycled between 100% and 0% three times during the
course of the Auto Tune procedure.
Auto Tune may be interrupted, if necessary, by placing the control loop in manual.
The resulting GAIN and RESET parameters (GAIN only for Draft control) will be
automatically updated when the sequence is completed.
For processes with significant dead time (such as a rotary dryer) it may be desirable to
decrease the GAIN parameter.
RUN MENU Screen
After all loop tuning settings have been recorded return to the MAIN MENU, then press RUN
MENU to display the run menu screen. This screen provides control mode selection, startup
ramp settings for automatic temperature control, low fire drive alarm settings, and draft control
setpoints.
DRAFT CONTROL
Enter a Draft Control PURGE SETPOINT for use during the burner purge sequence.
This value is normally set higher than the normal draft setpoint in order to prevent
dusting as the air damper drives open for purge.
Enter LOW FIRE and HIGH FIRE SETPOINTS for Draft Control. The draft setpoint will
automatically ramp from the low fire to the high fire setpoint as the burner firing rate
increases.
Enter a TRANSFER DELAY time in seconds to set the length of time after burner ignition
is initiated that the purge setpoint remains active for Draft Control before transferring to
the normal operating setpoint.

Page 8
BCS6000C-9
To accommodate variations in material moisture or composition and prevent nuisance
shutdowns, provisions are made for automatic draft setpoint increase. The PLC senses
‘puffs’ in the dryer drum and automatically increases dryer draft if a set number of ‘puffs’
occurs within a ten second time window. Set the desired increase via the INCREASE
DRAFT BY _._ _"WC display and enter values in the IF DRAFT DROPS BELOW
_._ _"WC and MORE THAN __ TIMES fields. For example, with settings of 0.02"WC,
0.10"WC and 2 Times, the dryer draft setpoint would be increased by 0.02"WC if dryer
draft dropped below 0.10"WC more than two times within a ten second interval due to
puffing. Note that the Draft Control setpoint returns to its original setting when the
burner is shut off.
TEMPERATURE CONTROL
Select MATERIAL or STACK temperature control.
Set a START AT and RAMP AT percentage for startup. If automatic temperature control
is selected, the burner will drive to the START AT __% setting as soon as the main
flame has been established. The control output will then begin to RAMP AT __% per
minute until the temperature is within 10°F (5.5°C)of setpoint or the output of the
selected control loop is less than or equal to the ramp output. The ramp will then stop
and the control loop will assume control of the burner firing rate.
The burner will be forced to low fire if the stack temperature exceeds the LOW FIRE
DRIVE IF STACK GREATER THAN __ F setting.
Likewise, the burner will be forced to low fire if material temperature exceeds the LOW
FIRE DRIVE IF MATERIAL GREATER THAN __ F setting.
LINKAGE SETUP
After motor calibration is completed and system setup parameters have been set, press the
LINKAGE SETUP button to enter the Linkage Setup mode. The fuel and air control motors will
be released from low fire and respond to the output of the temperature control loop. Return to
the MAIN screen and place the temperature control loop in MANUAL. Drive the motors as
required to adjust fuel and air control valve linkages. Confirm all linkage adjustments and insure
that control arms and linkage rods are tight, then return to the RUN MENU screen and select
either MATERIAL or STACK control to return to normal operation.
Verify that all low fire limit switch contacts are closed, i.e., slot 2, input 5 is ON when the burner
is at 0%, and OFF when the burner leaves low fire. Refer to the burner operating instructions
for switch adjustment.
TIME AND DATE SETTING
Simultaneously press the upper left and lower left corners of the touchscreen to enter the
screen setup mode then select CLOCK to access the Time and Date Settings. Use the keypad
to enter the desired value, then press Sec, Min, Hr, Day, Mon, or Yr as applicable. For
example, to set the month to September, use the keypad to enter ‘9’, then press ‘Mon’. Use the
EXIT buttons to return to normal operation.
DRAFT TRANSMITTER ZERO
Allow the unit to warm up for at least five minutes before adjusting the Transmitter Zero. Use
the shutoff cocks in the transmitter manifold to isolate the transmitter from the dryer, and to
open the LOW pressure tap to atmosphere. The transmitter display and the touchscreen
display of the BCS 6000 should both read 0.00. Reference Appendix I for transmitter
adjustments, if necessary.

BCS6000C-9
E. ELECTRONIC VALVE CHARACTERIZATION
To facilitate burner setup and optimize emissions, the BCS6000 system has been equipped with
Electronic Valve Characterization (EVC). This feature provides for creation of separate motor
response curves for the air and fuel control motors. Regardless of fuel selection, the air control
motor, or VFD, directly follows the heat demand output of the temperature controller. For
example, 15% output from the temperature controller will result in the air control motor driving
15% open. Meanwhile, the fuel control motor will follow a separate curve established by setting
characterization (bias) points as shown in Figure 1.

WARNING
Adjustment of this equipment by unqualified personnel can result in fire,
explosion, severe personal injury, or even death. This procedure requires the use of
a stack analyzer to properly adjust air/fuel ratio and optimize burner performance. It is
intended for qualified personnel, familiar with combustion systems and the interpretation
of stack emission readings. Electronic Valve Characterization is designed to provide for
minor adjustments to the air control valve position only. The low fire start positions and
overall valve strokes must be set by adjustment of the valve/motor linkages.

Page 10
BCS6000C-9
BIAS POINT ADJUSTMENT
Bias adjusting screens are accessed via the MAIN MENU. Before firing the burner, verify the
OIL FIRING BIAS POINTS and GAS FIRING BIAS POINTS are set to the default values listed
below.
Point Oil/LP Gas
Light off 3.0 3.0
Low Fire 0.0 0.0
10% 5.0 10.0
20% 10.0 20.0

Setup an analyzer to monitor stack or drum emissions. With the burner firing in manual at
approximately 10% output, select the bias point setting screen. Allow the analyzer readings to
stabilize, then increase or decrease the fuel input, if required. Make small adjustments and
allow readings to settle after each change. Increase the burner firing rate to approximately 20%
and repeat the above adjustment procedure. Continue for the 30, 40, 50, etc. or extrapolate
settings by plotting them on the chart shown in Figure 2. Record the resulting settings in the
Table provided in Appendix B. Press the MAIN button to exit and return to normal display.

REQUIRED
The difference between the Zero and Span feedback values of each
motor must be greater than 3300. Verify that the motors travel full
stroke during the motor calibration procedure.
FUEL CONTROL MOTOR FAULT
* Indicates that the fuel control motor has failed to respond to the
motor positioning output signals of the PLC. Check fuse 5 on the
printed circuit board. Also monitor slot 4 outputs 4 and 5 and relays
R6 and R7.
AIR CONTROL MOTOR FAULT
* Indicates that the fuel control motor has failed to respond to the
motor positioning output signals of the PLC. Check fuse 45 on the
printed circuit board. Monitor slot 4 outputs 6 and 7 and relays R8
and R9.
CHECK PURGE AIR LIMITS & MAIN
FUEL VALVE PROOF OF CLOSURE
SWITCHES
Monitor slot 2 input 7, terminals 24 thru 24E. This message appears
if the purge air pressure limit, exhaust damper open limit, or any of
the fuel valve proof of closure switches fails to close.
CHECK LOW FIRE LIMITS Monitor slot 2 input 5. Verify that all low fire limit switches are closed
(120Vac on terminal 21) when the control motors are in the low fire
start position.
HIGH STACK TEMPERATURE:
LOW FIRE HOLD
Check the low fire alarm setting on the RUN MENU screen. The
burner will be held at low fire until stack temperature falls below the
alarm setpoint
HIGH MATL. TEMPERATURE: LOW
FIRE HOLD
Check the low fire alarm setting on the RUN MENU screen. The
burner will be held at low fire until material temperature falls below
the alarm setting.
FLAME RELAY RESET REQUIRED
Monitor slot 1 input 6 and the ALARM indicator of the Honeywell
flame relay. This fault normally indicates that the pilot has failed to
ignite within the trial for ignition period. Verify that air, fuel and spark
are being supplied to the pilot. Other possibilities include:
1. Premature flame signal. If the flame meter indicates presence of
a flame before the ignition sequence is started, the flame relay will
lockout and the RESET indicator will come on. Check for fire in the
dryer drum or for a failed UV scanner.
2. Bad or missing ground. The Honeywell flame relay requires a
120Vac grounded neutral power supply for proper operation.
3. Flame amplifier failure. The flame amplifier may need to be
replaced.
* The control motor faults all indicate possible problems with the burner control motors or the
position feedback circuits. Silence the alarm horn and make note of the motor position
values displayed on the MOTOR CALIBRATION screen, then press the ALARM SILENCE
button a second time to reset the fault. Shut off the burner and verify that all control motors
drive to their ZERO and SPAN positions, and that the feedback signals change smoothly as the

LOW OIL or LP PRESSURE Monitor slot 3 input 5. Verify that the manual shutoff valve is open
and that the low pressure switch is made (power on terminal 17A).
HIGH OIL or LP PRESSURE Monitor slot 3 input 2 and the high oil or LP pressure switch (power
on terminal 17B).
ATOMIZING AIR FAULT
Monitor slot 3 input 3. For StarJet, MegaStar, and EcoStar II
systems verify that the primary air interlock and pressure switch or
compressed air pressure switches are made (power on terminals
17C and 17D
OIL TEMPERATURE FAULT Monitor slot 2 input 2. For heavy oil systems, verify that the oil
heater is operating and the oil temperature switches are made
(power on terminal 18).
HIGH STACK TEMPERATURE
Monitor slot 2 input 3. Check for power on terminals 25 and 26.
Observe the display and OUT indicator of the stack temperature
instrument. A full scale reading (842°F or 450°C) indicates an open
TC or broken wire
FLAME FAILURE Indicates that the flame relay has locked out due to a flame failure.
Check burner setup.
MAIN FUEL VALVE FAULT
Monitor slot 2 input 6. This input must be received within 20
seconds after the pilot flame has been recognized. Verify that
jumper wires are installed on the control panel terminal strip
between terminals 22 and 29 for gas and between terminals 30 and
44 for oil. For some applications it may be necessary to remove
these jumpers and connect the valve open limit switch in the main
fuel valve instead. Consult Hauck’s Service Department for details.

ALARM HISTORY Screen
An alarm history screen is also provided for use as a troubleshooting guide. From the MAIN
MENU screen press ALARM HISTORY to view a list of the last 99 logged events and the order
in which they occurred. Page up or down, if necessary, to view the entire list. Use the LINE UP
or LINE DOWN button to select a particular item then press DETAILS to view the time and date
information. Note that ‘FLAME ON’ and ‘BURNER STOPPED’ are included in the alarm list for
monitoring purposes even though they are not alarm conditions.
The ALARM COUNT screen shows how many times each alarm has occurred.
MANUAL BYPASS
In the event of a touchscreen display failure, the burner firing rate may be adjusted manually by
the following procedure.
Press the RESET button to initiate system purge. Wait for the START indicator to begin
flashing, then press START to ignite the burner.
As soon as the burner has ignited, press and hold both the START and ALARM SILENCE
pushbuttons for two seconds to enter the manual bypass mode. The alarm horn will chirp to
indicate that the manual bypass mode has been activated.
Using the readouts of the MATERIAL and STACK temperature instruments, the burner firing
rate may be manually adjusted by pressing the START button to increase, or the ALARM
SILENCE button to decrease. Each chirp of the alarm horn indicates a 1% output change.
Momentarily press the STOP pushbutton to shut off the burner and exit the manual bypass
mode.
