24 Vdc SDC Burner Manual
Notice Special Requirements
If you discover damage to the burner 
or controls during unpacking, notify 
the carrier at once and fi le the appropriate claim.
When contacting Beckett for service 
information — Please record the 
burner serial number (and have available when calling or 
writing). You will fi nd the serial number on the silver label 
located on the left rear of the burner. See Figure 1.
Section: Prepare Before Installing
Owner’s Responsibility
Incorrect installation, adjustment, and 
use of this burner could result in severe 
personal injury, death, or substantial 
property damage from fi re,  carbon 
monoxide poisoning, soot or explosion.
Contact a professional, qualifi ed service agency for the 
installation, adjustment and service of your oil heating 
system.  This work requires technical training, trade 
experience, licensing or certifi cation in some states and 
the proper use of special combustion test instruments. 
Please carefully read and comply with the following 
instructions:
Never store or use gasoline or other fl ammable liquids 
or vapors near this burner or appliance. 
Never attempt to burn garbage or refuse in this 
appliance.
Never attempt to light the burner/appliance by throwing 
burning material into the appliance. 
Never attempt to burn any fuel not specifi ed  and 
approved for use in this burner.
Never restrict the air inlet openings to the burner or 
the combustion air ventilation openings in the room.

Impaired Burner Performance 
and Fire Hazard.
Do NOT operate the burner beyond specifi cations 
outlined in the table to the right.
For applications beyond these limits, consult Beckett 
Technical Service at 1-800-645-2876.
NOTE: Some packaged appliances with burners 
may be agency listed as a unit to operate beyond 
these limits. Consult the appliance manufacturer’s 
specifi cations and agency approvals for verifi cation.

(See Warning on Impaired Burner
Performance and Fire Hazard.)
*Firing rate capacity is based on airfl ow volume.  In the SDC burner, airfl ow 
volume and motor speed are proportional to the DC voltage.  This results in a 
lower maximum fi ring rate at 24V.
Note 1. See equipment manufacturer’s burner specifi cations for recommended 
outlet pressure. Pressure is 100 psig unless otherwise noted.
High altitude installations – Accepted 
industry practice requires no derate 
of burner capacity up to 2,000 feet above sea level. For 
altitudes higher than 2,000 feet, derate the burner capacity 
2% for each 1,000 feet above the 2,000 feet.
