We sell three levels of kits. These kits are meant to convert Beckett AF and AFG model burners. You may be able to convert other burners but it may require welding and fabrication. Burners with a 4" O.D. blast tubes are the easiest to convert. Kit #1 is the basic kit and you will have to source the rest of the parts. Kit #2 is more complete but you will still need the air side parts and a box for the controller. Kit #3 is everything you need on the burner itself.
A few words about the new smaller heater block design. We've had a lot of questions about why we went to a smaller block. Basically we went to a smaller package so it can fit into other burners as well as shorter blast tubes. The outlets temps measured with a thermocouple and meter are easily 10 degrees hotter than the old block. The milled passages take longer to machine but result in a smaller block with better heating. The electrodes are mounted using the original Beckett mount that also serves to center the block in the blast tube. Lately we've encountered some oil (synthetic) that likes a little more heat to ignite. (200*F block temp). We've also noticed that some burners even the same model can have wildly different secondary air from the squirrel cage. Given that the block is smaller and there is less restriction in the blast tube, air control is VERY important. We highly recommend using a 3-5/8" Beckett static plate mounted on the electrode holder spider. Some burners may already have this.
