What's cooking with the MBU?Chances are, you're using the modern burner A drive that writes write-once optical discs such as CD-Rs and DVD-Rs. A "burner" implies a one-time recording, but the term is erroneously used to refer to drives that "write" to re-recordable CD-RW and DVD-RW/+RW media as well. See burn, CD-R and DVD-R. unit (MBU MBU Missouri Baptist University MBU Macintosh Business Unit (Microsoft) MBU Modern Burner Unit MBU Mother-Baby Unit (in hospitals) MBU Multiple-Bit Upset MBU Mountain Bike Ultimate ) as the heat source for the griddles, ranges or cooking racks in your field kitchen. So, before you flip another burger of barbeque another chicken leg, take a look at the MBU's data plate. If the NSN NSN National Stock Number NSN Nokia Siemens Networks NSN National Storytelling Network NSN NATO Stock Number NSN New Substances Notification (CEPA) NSN National Student Number (NZ) NSN Never Say Never is 7310-01-452-8137 and the model number is MBU100, you're cooking with an outdated model. You need the contractor-applied modification work order (MWO MWO Mount Washington Observatory (New Hampshire) MWO Microwave Oven MWO Master Warrant Officer MWO Modification Work Order MWO Multi Wave Oscillator MWO Meteorological Watch Office (aviation) ) 10-7310-281-55-1 for your MBU. The MWO removes the fuel delivery block and replaces it with an upgraded one. Why upgrade the fuel delivery block? Because the current block in the MBU 100 model supports an adjustable heat output ranging from 22,000 to 47,000 BTUs per hour. When you use the MBU 100 on a serving line to keep food warm, it burns too hot--even at its lowest setting. Food gets scorched scorch v. scorched, scorch·ing, scorch·es v.tr. 1. To burn superficially so as to discolor or damage the texture of. See Synonyms at burn1. 2. . The upgraded fuel delivery block supports a heat output with a wider range, from 11,000 to 53,500 BTUs per hour. That means you can adjust the MBU for lower heat and not burn your food. The upgraded block will keep the same NSN, 7310-01-462-4905. The block includes all upgraded flame sensor that can operate at higher temperatures. After the contractor applies the MWO, the MBU will get a new NSN, model number and part number. The data plate will reflect those changes. Here are the new numbers: MODERN BURNER UNIT NSN: 7310-01-507-9310 MODEL No: MBU103 TELEFLEX PART No: MS0003 The contractor will also change the decals on the control panel. One decal will identify the equipment as the MBU V3. Another decal underneath the control knob will indicate the setting for refueling. MBUs now in production include the upgraded fuel delivery block and flame sensor. They also feature the new decals and the new NSN, model number and part number. A contractor will apply the MWO at military installations.
