Field Controls 02722701 Control
The Field Controls 6" RC Barometric Draft Control (Part Number 02722701, also listed as 2722701) is a precision-engineered component designed for high-efficiency oil and coal heating systems. As a veteran tech knows, consistent draft is critical for proper combustion; this Type RC draft regulator maintains optimal overfire draft by compensating for changes in atmospheric pressure and chimney temperature. It features a calibrated range of .02"wc to .08"wc, allowing for exact field adjustments to meet manufacturer specifications. The 6-inch barometric damper is built with a heavy-duty gate and stainless steel pivots to prevent binding and ensure long-term reliability in harsh flue environments. Integrating this HVAC draft control into your venting stack stabilizes the flame power, reduces soot buildup, and prevents excessive heat loss up the chimney, making it a standard requirement for professional oil furnace maintenance and coal stove installations.
Key Benefits for Technicians- Precise Draft Regulation: Fully adjustable settings from .02" to .08" water column for exact chimney draft calibration.
- Universal Compatibility: Engineered for both oil-fired and coal-fired applications requiring a 6-inch diameter flue.
- Durable Construction: Features high-grade materials to withstand corrosive flue gases without seizing.
- Increased System Efficiency: Minimizes fuel consumption by preventing excessive draft from pulling heat out of the heat exchanger.
- Simplified Installation: Standard 6" sizing ensures a seamless fit with existing single-wall vent pipe.
How do I set the correct draft on the 6" RC model?
Use a manometer to measure the draft over the fire and in the flue. Adjust the counterweight on the Model 6"RC gate until the reading matches the appliance manufacturer's data plate, typically between .02" and .04"wc for modern oil burners.
Can 02722701 be used on gas-fired equipment?
No, the RC series is specifically designed for oil or coal. For gas applications, a Field Controls MG1 or similar double-acting regulator is required to satisfy safety codes.
Is the 02722701 interchangeable with part number 2722701?
Yes, these are identical units. The leading zero is often used for inventory indexing, but the physical specifications and performance are exactly the same.
