WARNING: If the information in these instructions is not followed exactly, a fire or explosion may result causing property damage, personal injury, or death.

FOR YOUR SAFETY

Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable, combustible, or corrosive vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance.

WHAT TO DO IF YOU SMELL GAS

Do not try to light any appliance.

Do not touch any electrical switch; do not use any phone in your building.

Immediately call your gas supplier from a neighbor's phone. Follow the gas supplier's instructions.

If you cannot reach your gas supplier, call the fire department.

Installation and service must be performed by a qualified installer, service agency or the gas supplier.

CAUTION

Incorrect operation of this

appliance may create a hazard to

life and property and will nullify the

warranty.

DANGER

Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable, combustible, or corrosive vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance.

IMPORTANT

Before proceeding, please inspect the water heater and its components for possible damage. DO NOT install any water heater with damaged components. If damage is evident then please contact the supplier where the water heater was purchased or the manufacturer listed on the rating plate for replacement parts.

WARNING

Water heaters are heat producing appliances. To avoid damage or injury, do not store materials against the water heater or vent-air intake system. Use proper care to avoid unnecessary contact (especially by children) with the water heater and vent-air intake components. UNDER NO

CIRCUMSTANCES MUST FLAMMABLE MATERIALS, SUCH AS GASOLINE OR PAINT THINNER BE USED OR STORED IN THE VICINITY OF THIS WATER HEATER, VENT-AIR INTAKE SYSTEM OR IN ANY LOCATION FROM WHICH FUMES COULD REACH THE WATER HEATER OR VENT-AIR INTAKE SYSTEM.

CAUTION

If sweat fittings are to be used DO NOT apply heat to the nipples on top of the water heater. Sweat the tubing to the adapter before fitting the adapter to the water connections. It is imperative that heat is not applied to the nipples containing a plastic liner.

WARNING

Hydrogen gas can be produced in an operating

water heater that has not had water drawn from the

tank for a long period of time (generally two weeks or

more). Hydrogen gas is extremely flammable. To

prevent the possibility of injury under these

conditions, we recommend the hot water faucet to be

open for several minutes at the kitchen sink before

you use any electrical appliance which is connected

to the hot water system. If hydrogen is present,

there will be an unusual sound such as air escaping

through the pipes as hot water begins to flow. Do

not smoke or have open flame near the faucet at the

time it is open.

WARNING

DO NOT ATTEMPT TO LIGHT ANY GAS APPLIANCE IF YOU ARE NOT CERTAIN OF THE FOLLOWING:

Liquefied petroleum gases/propane gas and natural gas have an odorant added by the gas

supplier that aids in the detection of the gas. Most people recognize this odor as a “sulfur” or

“rotten egg” smell.

Other conditions, such as “odorant fade” can cause the odorant to diminish in intensity, or

”fade”, and not be as readily detectable.

If you have a diminished sense of smell, or are in any way unsure of the presence of gas, immediately contact your gas supplier from a

neighbor's telephone.

Gas detectors are available. Contact your gas supplier, or plumbing professional, for more information.

WARNING

FAILURE TO INSTALL AND MAINTAIN A NEW,

LISTED 3/4” X 3/4” TEMPERATURE AND PRESSURE

RELIEF VALVE WILL RELEASE THE

MANUFACTURER FROM ANY CLAIM THAT MIGHT

RESULT FROM EXCESSIVE TEMPERATURE AND

PRESSURES.

CAUTION

Turn off or disconnect the electrical power supply to the water heater before servicing. Label all wires prior to disconnection when servicing controls. Wiring errors can cause improper and dangerous operation. Verify proper operation after servicing.

PDX Series

Introduction

The new Bradford White PDX2 and PDX water heaters are designed to provide reliable performance with enhanced standard features. New design features include reliable spark to pilot ignition system, enhanced diagnostics, simplified servicing, significantly quieter operation, additional vent lengths and certified FVIR technology.

Spark to Pilot Ignition System - employing the spark to pilot ignition system promotes reliable and consistent pilot and main burner ignitions to provide hot water on demand.

Integrated Immersion Thermostat/Gas Control Valve with LED - was developed for ease of troubleshooting by providing simple diagnostic codes to pinpoint an installation or component performance issue.

New Powerful Blower - will eliminate problems with difficult venting situations.

Quieter and Cooler Blower Operation - blower noise is significantly reduced for both interior and exterior environments. Cooler operation increases blower life by reducing bearing wear and noise.

Rugged Wiring Connections - receptacle type connections promote error free wiring.

Increased Vent Lengths - increased venting performance is achieved while maintaining Energy Factor & FHSR performance.

The PDX2 and PDX water heaters use a combustion system were flue gases are combined with dilution air to reduce the flue gas temperature in the blower, combustion air and dilution air are drawn from outside the building. The diluted flue gases are evacuated to the exterior through low temperature vent materials. The gas control maintains water temperature, ignition sequence and regulates gas flow. A safety circuit consisting of a pressure switch and blower temperature switch verifies proper conditions exist for safe and reliable operation. If a situation outside of normal operating parameters exists, the gas control diagnostic LED will flash a code to positively identify an operational issue.

This service manual is designed to facilitate problem diagnosis and enhance service efficiency. To further promote quicker service times the new gas valve can be removed and replaced without draining the water heater. A special tool is required and will be provided with each gas valve kit shipped from our Service Parts department.

Please read the service manual completely before attempting service on this new series of power vent models.

How the Safety System Works

During normal operation, air for combustion is drawn into the water heater though the vent pipe from outside your building. The air travels into the closed combustion chamber. The air then mixes with in a normal manner with supplied gas and its efficiently combusted, producing very low NOx emissions.

In the unlikely event trace amounts of flammable vapors are present in the area surrounding the water heater, the sealed combustion system prevents the flammable vapors from reaching the ignition source. In addition the flammable vapors sensor will stop the water heater from operating if a significant amount of flammable vapors are present.

How to Use This Manual

It is intended for this manual to be used by qualified service personal for the primary purpose of troubleshooting and repair of the Bradford White TTW Series water heaters. Understanding the sequence of operation section of this manual will contribute greatly to troubleshooting the water heater.

The Honeywell WV4460E Electronic Gas Control will display error codes in the event of abnormal operation. Error codes are listed in the troubleshooting chart beginning on page 12 of this service manual. The troubleshooting chart will also indicate the probable cause for the error code and direct the service professional to a service procedure to properly diagnose the abnormal operation.

In some difficult to diagnose conditions, it may be necessary to isolate the heater from the vent system to determine the problem.

Contact the Bradford White technical support group immediately if diagnosis can not be made using the methods described in this service manual.

Sequence of Operation

Power up Sequence

1

2

Start Up.

Upon power up, the control runs a safe-start check with a typical start-up delay of 1-5 seconds.

Flammable Vapor Check.

To assure no outputs are energized if the “Flammable Vapor Sensor” is out of range, the control will test the the “Flammable Vapor Sensor” for proper operating range. If the “Flammable Vapor Sensor” is within range the

control resumes normal operation with no perceptible delay. If the “Flammable Vapor Sensor” is out of range, the control LED immediately flashes 7 times with 3 second pause.

Normal Heating Sequence

1 Thermostat calls for heat.

Prior to energizing blower, gas control checks safety circuit to insure the circuit is open. Normal switch positions in the safety circuit are as follows:

a)Exhaust pressure switch normally open.

b)Blower temperature switch normally closed.

c)Inlet pressure switch normally closed.

If the safety circuit is closed, the control waits 4 seconds, gas control LED flashes 2 times with 3 second pause. Gas control waits 2 minutes then, blower runs for 30 seconds. This cycle repeats until safety circuit opens.

2Blower energizes.

3Blower pre-purge period (2 seconds)

4Exhaust pressure switch proves blower/vent system operation.

a)If the pressure switch does not close within 30 seconds, the control LED Flashes 3 times with 3 second pause. The blower runs for 30 seconds every 2 minutes trying to get the pressure switch or blower temperature switch to close. This cycle repeats as long as there is a call for heat.

b)The normally closed inlet pressure switch allows the system to work as long as the inlet air is not blocked.

5Trial for pilot ignition (90 seconds).

a)The gas control lights the pilot by activating spark igniter and gas flow to pilot burner.

b)If flame is not sensed within 90 seconds, igniter and gas flow are deactivated, blower will post purge and control LED flashes 6 times with 3 second pause.

6Main burner Ignition

After pilot flame is sensed, gas control activates main valve for main burner ignition. The gas control will ignore flame and pressure switch signals for 3 seconds allowing for main burner to stabilize.

Sequence of Operation

Normal Heating Sequence (cont.)

Steady state operation.

7During Steady State Operation the Control Monitors:

Thermostat temperature sensor- When set point temperature is satisfied, gas valve is shut down and blower will post purge for 15 seconds. Control LED flashes a short flash once every 4 seconds (idle) status code.

Pressure switch / Blower temperature switch- If either switch opens, pilot valve and main valve is shut down. The blower continues to runs for 30 seconds attempting to close the circuit. The control LED Flashes 3 times with 3 second pause.

Flame Sense- If flame is lost, pilot & main valve are shut down, blower runs for 15 seconds. Control attempts to re-light pilot 4 times. If unsuccessful, Blower is shut down and control proceeds to 5 minute lockout. Control re-attempts to light pilot starting at normal heating sequence #2.

8Thermostat satisfies.

9Burner off.

10 Blower post purge (15 seconds).

Abnormal Operation

1. Simulated Resistive Device Fault:

a)If the Flammable Vapor Sensor resistance is greater than 70,000 Ohms - the gas control immediately turns off all outputs. Control waits and monitors resistance for 30 seconds. If the resistance is greater than 70,000 ohms after 30 seconds, the gas control proceeds to verify resistive delay for 2 minutes and flashes 7 times with a three second pause. This process is repeated 5 times until the control either returns to normal operation or proceeds to a lockout mode flashing 7 times with a 3 second pause.

b)If the Flammable Vapor Sensor resistance is below 3000 ohms - The gas control immediately turns off all outputs and proceeds to flash 8 times then once with three second pause. The error self clears if the resistance returns to normal range for at least 15 seconds.

2. Temperature Sensor Fault:

a)Temperature sensor detected open circuit - The gas control Immediately turns off all outputs and proceeds to flash 8 times then three times with three second pause. The error self clears if the fault clears for at least 15 seconds.

b)Temperature sensors not reading the same temperature within ±5.5 °F - The gas control Immediately turns off all outputs and proceeds to flash 8 times then three times with three second pause. The error self clears if the fault clears for at least 15 seconds.

c)Water temperature in excess of TCO (Temperature Cut Off) limit - The gas control immediately turns off pilot & main valve and proceeds to flash 4 times with 3 second pause. Blower continues to run until gas control is reset. Power needs to be cycled to remove gas control from TCO lockout.

PDX Series

Sequence of Operation

Abnormal Operation (cont.)

3. Pressure Switch/Blower Temperature Fault:

a)Pressure switch closed at start of call for heat - The control waits four seconds then, proceeds to flash

2 times with 3 second pause. The control waits 2 minutes and then turns on blower for 30 seconds. The blower turns off after 30 seconds and the control waits for pressure switch to open. Any time the Pressure switch opens, the blower turns on (or stays on) and the control proceeds to waiting for pressure switch to close.

b)Pressure switch or blower temperature switch failed open - The control runs the blower for 30 seconds waiting for the pressure switch and/or blower temperature switch to close. If either switch does not close in 30 seconds, the blower turns off and the control flashes 3 times with 3 second pause. The control waits two

minutes before turning on the blower for another 30 seconds to see the circuit close. This cycle repeats as long as there is a call for heat or until the circuit closes.

c)Pressure switch or blower temperature switch opens during burner operation - The control turns off the pilot and main valve, runs blower for 15 seconds (inter-purge) waiting for pressure switch and/or blower temperature switch to close. If either switch fails to close, the control proceeds as described in 3b above. If the circuit closes again by the end of the inter-purge, the recycle counter is incremented, if the recycle count has not reached its limit (4), another trial for ignition begins. If the recycle count has been reached, the control turns off the blower and flashes 6 times then 2 times with 3 second pause. The control waits 5 minutes before repeating ignition sequence.

d)Normally closed intake pressure switch opens at start of call for heat-the control runs the blower for 30 seconds waiting for the pressure switch to close. If the switch does not close in 30 seconds, the blower turns off and the control flashes 3 times with a 3 second pause. The control waits two minutes before turning on the blower for another 30 seconds to see the circuit close. This cycle repeats as long as there is a call for heat or until the circuit closes.

4.Trial For Ignition Fault:

a)Pressure switch opens during trial - The control turns off igniter and pilot valve. The gas control proceeds

as described in 3b above. If the pressure switch closes within 30 seconds the gas control will continue with trial for ignition starting at blower pre-purge.

b)Flame Not Sensed - The control energizes the spark igniter attempting to light the pilot and prove flame. If flame is not sensed within 90 seconds, the igniter turns off, the pilot valve is closed and the gas control runs the

blower through post purge and flashes 6 times then once with 3 second pause. The control waits 5 minutes before repeating the ignition sequence.

5. Flame Sensing Fault:

a)Flame lost during run - The control turns off pilot and main valves, runs blower for 15 seconds (inter purge). The control increments the recycle count, if the recycle count has not reached its limit (4), another trial for ignition begins. If the recycle count has been reached, the control turns off the blower and flashes 6 times then 3 times with 3 second pause. The control waits 5 minutes before repeating the ignition sequence.

b)Flame sensed out of sequence - the control only looks for pilot flame when the blower is running. If flame is present when the pilot valve is not open, the control proceeds to wait for flame loss and flashes 5 times with 3 second pause. This continues until flame is lost, once the flame signal is lost, the control flashes 6 times then 4 times with 3 second pause. The control waits 5 minutes before repeating the ignition sequence.
