4. BCC Blower Control (A15)
-1 Through -4 Models
G23(X)-1, -2, -3 and -4 model units utilize the BCC blower
controlmanufacturedby Heatcraft. Seefigure10.TheBCC
is a printed circuit board which controls the supply air blower and monitors primary limit and gas valve operation. The
BCC is equipped with a jumper for electronic (isolation
relay) or electro-mechanical thermostat selection.The controlhasanon-adjustable,factorypresetfan“on”timing.Fan
“off”timing is adjustable. The board is divided into two sections, 120 and 24VAC. Line voltage comes into the board
on the 120VACside. See table 1 for terminal designations.
Fan Timings
Fan“off”timing (time that thebloweroperates after theheat
demand has been satisfied) is determined by the arrangement of a jumper across pins on the BCC blower control
board.Seefigure9.To adjust fan“off”timing,gentlydisconnect jumper and reposition across pins corresponding with
newtiming.Fan “on” time is factoryset at 45 seconds andis
not adjustable.
NOTE—If fan “off” time is set too low, residual heat in
heat exchanger may cause primary limit S10 to trip resulting in frequent cycling of blower. If this occurs, adjust blower to longer time setting.
Figure 9 shows the various fan “off” timings and how jumper
should be positioned. Unit is shipped with a factory fan “off”
setting of 90 seconds. Fan “off” time will affect comfort and
efficiency and is adjustable to satisfy individual applications.
Thefan “off” timing is initiated aftera heating demand butnot
after a blower or cooling demand (that is, when indoor thermostat switch is changed from ON to AUTO and heating/
cooling demand is not present, the blower stops immediately).
Electrostatic discharge can affect electronic
components. Take precautions during furnace
installation and service to protect the furnace’s
electroniccontrols.Precautions will helptoavoid
control exposure to electrostatic discharge by
putting the furnace, the control and the technician at the same electrostatic potential. Neutralize electrostatic charge by touching hand and all
tools on an unpainted unit surface, such as the
gas valve or blower deck, before performing any
service procedure.

C-Ignition Control (-1 Through -4 Models)
G23(X) -1, -2, -3 and -4 model units use an intermittent pilot
ignitioncontrol manufacturedby Johnson Controls. The ignition control is located on a bracket on the upper vest panel.
Unit Operation
When there is a call for heat, the control is prevented from
beginning an ignition sequence until the pressure switch
proves combustion air blower operation. When the pressure
switch closes, the control generates a spark and opens the
pilot valve to ignite the pilot. When flame is sensed, the control opens the main gas valve and the pilot ignites the main
burners. The indoor blower starts after a 45 second delay.
Gas valve remains open and combustion air blower continues to run until demand stops, flame sensor senses loss of
flame,alimit opens ortheprove switchopens. If anyofthese
events occur during a thermostat demand, the gas valve
closes.
Thecontrolwillattempt ignitionfor85seconds.Ifignitionis
not successful, the control will lockout (indicated by flashing LED). Within one hour the control will momentarily remove then reapply the thermostat signal and the ignition
sequence will begin again (Watchguard circuit). If pilot
ignitionissuccessful, but flameislost whenthemainvalve
opens,theignitionsequencewill retry up to 15moretimes.
Ifignitionisnotsuccessfulafterthe16thtry,thecontrolwill
shut-down and must be reset manually. Manual reset is
accomplished by removing then reapplying thermostat
demand for at least 30 seconds.

Diagnostic LED
The furnace ignition control is equipped with a diagnostic
LEDusedfortroubleshootingtheunitandthe control.LED
functions are shown in table 3.
On a call for heat from the indoor thermostat, the ignition
control energizes and the ignition control LED lights
(steady on). The combustionair blower is energized.After
a 15 second pre-purge period, the control simultaneously
opens the pilot valve and sends spark to the pilot electrode.
If the pilot ignites within 85 seconds, the flame sensor detects pilot flame and signals the ignition control to to energize the main valve. The main valve cannot be energized
until the sensor detects pilot flame. Spark continues until
pilotflameissensed or 85 secondshas elapsed, whichever happens first.
When pilot flame is sensed, the main valve is energized
and the spark turns off. The ignition control remains in
“run” mode until the indoor thermostat is satisfied or flame
is lost.
Ifpilotflame is not sensedbefore the end of the85second
trialfor ignition, thecontrol enters the 100% shutoffmode.
The spark circuit and pilot valve de-energize and the ignitioncontrol automatically begins the60 minute retry delay
period. During the 60 minute delay the diagnostic LED
continually flashes on for one second and off for five seconds. After the delay period, another trial for ignition sequence starts, beginning with pre-purge.
Ifpilotflamegoesoutwhiletheindoorthermostat is calling
forheat, both main and pilotvalves de-energizewithin 0.8
seconds and remain de-energized for five seconds. After
this delay, the spark and pilot valve energize until flame is
sensedorthe85secondtrialforignitionperiod ends.Ifthis
“flameout” cycle repeats 16 times (pilot flame is established and then lost), the control locks out and the LED
goes off. A new trial for ignition sequence begins after the
thermostat contacts are opened for 30 seconds and then
closed.
If flame is detected when the thermostat calls for heat, it
must extinguish within30 seconds for normaloperation. If
flameisstillpresentafter30seconds,thecontrolgoesinto
lockout and the LED goes off.
D-Combustion Air Blower (B6)
All G23(X) units use a combustion air blower to move air
through the burners and heat exchanger during heating operation. The blower uses a shaded pole 120VAC motor.
Shaded pole motors do not use run capacitors. The motor
operates during all heating operation and is controlled by
blower control A15. The blower operates continuously while
there is a call for heat. The ignition control is prevented from
proceeding through the ignition sequence until combustion
air blower operation is sensed by the prove switch.
The pressure switch connected to the upper vest panel is
used to prove combustion air blower operation. The switch
monitors air pressure in the blower housing. During normal
operation, the pressure in the housing is negative. If the
pressure drops (becomes more positive), the pressure
switch opens. When the pressure switch opens, the ignition
control (A3) immediately closes the gas valve to prevent
burner operation.

F-Flame Rollout Switch (S47)
Flame rollout switch is a high temperature limit located on
rollout switch bracket (over burner assembly). The limit is a
N.C. SPST manual-reset limit connected in series with the
ignition control (A3). When S47 senses rollout, the ignition
controlimmediately stops ignitionandcloses the gas valve.
If unit is running andflame rollout is detected, the gasvalve
will close and ignition control will be disabled. Rollout can
be caused by a reverse draft, blocked flue or lack of combustion air. The switch is factory set and cannot be adjusted. The switch may have different setpoints for each
unitmodel number.However,thesetpoint will beprinted on
the side of the limit. The switch can be manually reset. To
manually reset a tripped switch, push the reset button located on the control (see figure 13).

H-Pilot, Spark Electrode, Flame Sensor
and Burners (-1 Through -4 Models)
Figure 17 shows the arrangement of pilot, flame sensor,
spark electrode and burners. The ignition control uses direct spark to ignite the pilot. The pilot ignites the burners
and the burners cross-light. The flame sensor uses flame
rectification to sense ignition. The ignition control requires
that pilot flame must be sensed before the main gas valve
is allowed to open. Typically, a 2 to 4 second delay occurs
between the pilot ignition and the main valve opening.
Figure16showsthe gap between tip of the electrodesand
the burner surface. It is important that the gap be maintained for consistent ignition of pilot flame.
A flame retention ring in the end of each burner is used to
maintain correct flame length and shape and to keep the
flamefrom lifting offthe burner head. In addition, the burner entrance to each clamshell (Figure 3) is fitted with a
flamebaffle or corbel toenhance the combustion process.

I- SureLight Ignition System A3
(-5 and -6 models)
All G23(X)-5 and -6 model units are equipped with the
Lennox SureLight ignition system. The system consists
of ignition control board (figure 21 with control terminal
designationsintable5)and ignitor(figures 18,19and20.
The board and ignitor work in combination to ensure furnace ignition and ignitor durability. The SureLight integrated board controls all major furnace operations. The
board also features two LED lights for troubleshooting
and two accessory terminals rated at (4) four amps. See
table6 for troubleshooting diagnostic codes. Table7and
8 show jack plug terminal designations. Units equipped
withtheSureLightboardcanbeusedwitheitherelectronic or electro-mechanical thermostats without modification. The SureLight ignitor is made of durable silic on-nitride. Ignitor longevity isalso enhanced by voltage ramping by the control board. The board finds the lowest ignitor temperature which will succes s fully light the burner,
thus increasing the life of t he ignitor.

ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE (ESD)
Precautions and Procedures
CAUTION
Electrostatic discharge can affect electronic
components. Take precautions during furnace
installation and service to protect the furnace’s
electronic controls. Precautions will help to
avoid control exposure to electrostatic discharge by putting the furnace, the control and
the technician at the same electrostatic potential. Neutralize electrostatic charge by touching
hand and all tools on an unpainted unit surface,
such as thegas valve or blower deck, before performing any service procedure.
a-Electronic Ignition
On a call for heat the SureLight control monitors the combustionair blower pressureswitch. The control will notbegin the heating cycle if the pressure switch is closed (bypassed). Once the pressure switch is determined to be
open, the combustion air blower is energized. When the
differential in the pressure switch is great enough, the
pressure switch closes and a 15-second pre-purge begins. If the pressure switch is not proven within 2-1/2 minutes, the control goes into Watchguard-Pressure Switch
mode for a 5-minute re-set period.
After the 15-second pre-purge period, the SureLight ignitor warms up for 20 seconds after which the gas valve
opens for a 4-second trial for ignition. G23X units
equipped with board 24L85, 56L83 or 63K89: the ignitor
stays energized for the first second of the 4-second trial.
Units equipped with board 97L48: ignitor stays energized
duringthetrialuntilflameissensed.If ignition is not proved
during the 4-second period, the control will try four more
times with an inter purge and warm-up time between trials
of 35 seconds. After a total of five trials for ignition (including the initial trial), the control goes into WatchguardFlame Failure mode. After a 60-minute reset period, the
control will begin the ignition sequence again.
The SureLight control board has an added feature that
prolongs the life of the ignitor. After a successful ignition,
theSureLightcontrolutilizeslesspowertoenergize the ignitoron successive callsfor heat. Thecontrol continues to
rampdown the voltage tothe ignitor until itfinds the lowest
amount of power that will provide a successful ignition. It
finds this by ramping down until the ignitor will not light,
then steps up the amount of power by three times. This
amount of power is used for 255 cycles. On the 256th call
for heat, the control will again ramp down until the lowest
power is determined and the cycle begins again.
b-Fan Time Control
The fan on time of 45 seconds is not adjustable. Fan off
time (time that the blower operates after the heat demand
has been satisfied) can be adjusted by flipping the dip
switches located on the SureLight integrated control. The
unit is shipped with a factory fan off setting of 90 seconds.
Fan off time will affect comfort and is adjustable to satisfy
individual applications. See figure 22.
FAN-OFF TIME ADJUSTMENT

J-Gas Valve
TheG23(X) usesa gas valvemanufacturedbyHoneywell
or White Rodgers. See figure 23. The valve is internally
redundant to assure safety shut-off. If the gas valve must
be replaced, the same type valve must be used.
24VAC terminals and gas control knob are located on top of
the valve. All terminals on the gas valve are connected to
wires from the ignition control. 24V applied to the “PV” terminals opens the pilot (-1 through -4 models)and 24V appliedto
the “MV” terminals opens the valve on G23X. Inlet and outlet
pressure taps are located on the valve. A regulator adjustment screw (figure 24) is located on the valve.
An LPG changeover kit is available from Lennox. The kit includes main and pilot burner orifices, burner corbel plate (Nox
only), and regulator conversion kit.
K-Combustion Air Blower Prove
(Pressure) Switch (S64)
G23(X) series units are equipped with a combustion air
(pressure) switch located on the vestibule panel. The switch
is connected tothe combustion airblower housing by means
of a flexible silicon hose. It monitors air pressure in the combustion air blower housing. The other side of the pressure
switch is open to atmosphere.
The switch is a single-pole single-throw pressure switch
electrically connected in series with the ignition control. The
purpose of the switch is to prevent burner operation if the
combustion air blower is not operating.
On start-up, the switch senses that the combustion air blower is operating. It closes a circuit to the ignition control when
pressure inside the combustion air blower increases above
the setpoint. The setpoint is measured in negative inches
water gauge. The pressure sensed by the switch is relative
to atmospheric pressure. If the flue becomes obstructed during operation, the switch senses a loss of negative pressure
(drops below setpoint) and opens the circuit to the ignition
control .
The switch setpoint varies with unit model number. Look
for the setpoint printed on the side of the switch.
The switch is factory set and is not field adjustable. It is a
safety shut-down control in the furnace and must not be
bypassed for any reason.

II-PLACEMENT AND INSTALLATION
Make sure unit is installed in accordance with installation
instructions and applicable codes.
A-Fresh Air Requirements
Until recently, there was no problem in bringing in sufficient
amounts of outdoor air for combustion -- infiltration provided
all the air that was needed and then some. In today’s homes
built with energy conservation in mind, tight construction practices make it necessary to bring in air from outside for combustion. Consideration must also be given to the use of exhaust fans, appliance vents, chimneys and fireplaces because they draw additionalair that could be used for combustion out of the house. Unless outside air is brought into the
home for combustion, negative pressure (pressure outside is
greater than inside pressure) will build to the pointthat a down
draft can occur in the furnace vent pipe or chimney . Combustion gases can enter the living space creating a potentially
dangerous situation.
Theimportanceofthe previous paragraphcannotbeoverstated. Users may inadvertently block fresh air intakes after installation.
In the absence of local codes concerning air for combustion
and ventilation, the following section outlines guidelines and
recommends procedures for operating G23(X) furnaces in a
manner that ensures efficient and safe operation. Special
consideration must be given to combustion air needs as well
as requirements for exhaust vents and gas piping. A portion
of this information has been reprinted with permission from
the National Fuel Gas Code (ANSI-Z223.1). This reprinted
material is not the complete and official position of the ANSI
on the referenced subject, which is represented only by the
standard in its entirety .
In Canada, refer to the standard CAN/CGA-B149.1 and B149.2 installation codes.
Combustion Air Requirements
&$87,21
Insufficient combustion air can cause headaches,
nausea, dizziness or asphyxiation. Excessive exposure to contaminated combustion air will result
in safety and performance related problems.
Avoidexposuretothe following substances in the
combustion air supply:
Permanent wave solutions;
Chlorinated waxes and cleaners;
Chlorine base swimming pool chemicals;
Water softening chemicals;
De-icing salts or chemicals;
Carbon tetrachloride;
Halogen type refrigerants;
Cleaning solvents (such as perchloroethylene);
Printing inks, paint removers, varnishes, etc.;
Hydrochloric acid;
Cements and glues;
Antistatic fabric softeners for clothes dryers; and
Masonry acid washing materials.
All gas-fired appliances require air to be used for the combustion process. If sufficient amounts of combustion air are
not available, the furnace or other appliance will operate in
an inefficient and unsafe manner . Enough air must be provided to meet the needs of all fuel-burning appliances, as
well as appliances such as exhaust fans which force air out
of the home. When fireplaces, exhaust fans, or clothes dryers are used at the same time as the furnace,much more air
is required to ensure proper combustion and to prevent a
down-draft situation. Insufficient amounts of air also cause
incomplete combustion which can result in carbon monoxide. The requirements for providing air for combustion and
ventilationdepend largely onwhether the furnace is installed
in an unconfined or confined space.
Unconfined Space
An unconfined space is an area such as a basement or
largeequipmentroomwithavolumegreaterthan 50cubic
feetper 1,000 Btu per hour of thecombined input rating of
all appliances installed in that space. This space also includesadjacent rooms which are not separated by adoor.
Though an area may appear to be unconfined, it might be
necessary to bring in outdoor air for combustion if the
structure does not provide enough air by infiltration. If the
furnace is located in a building of tight construction with
weather stripping and caulking around the windows and
doors,followthe procedures outlined for using air fromthe
outside for combustion and ventilation.
Confined Space
A confined space is an area with volume less than 50 cubic
feetper 1,000 Btu per hour of the combined input rating of all
appliances installed in that space. This definition includes
furnace closets or small equipment rooms.

Whenthefurnace is installed sothatsupplyducts carryair
circulated by the furnace to areas outside the space containingthefurnace,thereturnairmustbehandledbyducts
which are sealed to the furnace casing and which terminate outside the space containing the furnace. This is especially important when the furnace is mounted on a platform in a confined space such as a closet or small equipment room. Even a small leak around the base of the unit
at the platform or at the return air duct connection can
cause a potentially dangerous negative pressure condition.Airforcombustion and ventilation can be brought into
the confined space either from inside the building or from
outside.

shall be no less than 3 inches. In calculating free area, the
blocking effect of louvers, grilles, or screens must be considered. If thedesign and freearea of protective covering is
not known for calculating the size opening required, it may
be assumed that wood louvers will have 20 to 25 percent

B-Flue Venting Requirements
G23(X)seriesfurnacesmustbeventedincompliancewith
all local codes, the venting tables provided in this manual
and these instructions.
The G23(X) series units have been classified as fan assisted Category I type furnaces when vertically vented in
accordance with the latest edition of ANSI Z21.47 Central
Furnace Standard. The definition of a fan assisted Category I type furnace is an appliance equipped with an integral
mechanical means to either draw or force products of combustion through the combustion chamber and/or heat exchanger.
The vent sizing tables in this manual have been extracted
fromtheNationalFuelGasCode(NFPA54/ANSI Z223.1)
and are provided for convenience to serve as a guideline
for proper vent installation. Proper application, termination,constructionandlocationofvents must conform to local codes having jurisdiction. In the absence of local
codes, the NFGC serves as the defining document.
Referto the tables and the venting information contained in
these instructions for proper sizing and installation of the
venting system.
The G23(X) series units have the following flue collar
sizes: -50 unit, 3” diameter; -75 and -100 units, 4” diameter; and -125 & -150 units, 5” diameter. Use this informationinconjunctionwiththe providedventingtablestoproperlysizetheventorventconnectorthatattaches to thefurnace flue collar.
Venting Using a Masonry Chimney
The following additional requirements apply when a lined
masonry chimney is beingused to vent a G23(X) furnace:
A Category I appliance must never be connected to a
chimney that is servicing a solid fuel appliance. If a fireplace chimney flue is used to vent this appliance, the fireplace opening must be permanently sealed.

convert unit. Refer to the installation instructions supplied
with the changeover kit for conversion procedure.
The pressure switch is factory set. No adjustment is necessary. The G23-50/75 units use the factory pressure
switch from 0 to 7500 feet. G23-100/125 and G23-150
units require a high altitude pressure switch for units
installed above 5000 feet. Order Lennox part number
97J50 for G23-100/125 and 18J35 for G23-150.

V-TYPICAL OPERA TING CHARACTERISTICS
A-Blower Operation and Adjustment
NOTE- The following is a generalized procedure and
does not apply to all thermostat controls.
1 - Blower operation is dependent on thermostat control
system.
2 - Generally, blower operation is set at thermostat sub-
base fan switch. With fan switch in ON position, blower
operates continuously. With fan switch in AUTO position, blower cycles with demand or runs continuously
while heating or cooling circuit cycles.
3 - In all cases, blower and entire unit will be off when the
system switch is in OFF position.
B-Temperature Rise
Temperature rise for G23(X) units depends on unit input,
blower speed, blower horsepower and static pressure as
markedontheunitrating plate. The blower speedmustbe
setfor unitoperationwithintherangeof “AIRTEMP. RISE
Blower speed tap selection is accomplished by changing the
taps at the blowermotor harness connector.Disconnect harness connector from motor to expose speed selectors.
Blower speed selections are listed in table 20.
To Change Blower Speed:
1 - Turn off electric power to furnace.
2 - Remove blower acces s door. See figure 1.
3 - Disconnect blower motor harness from motor.
4 - Pull harness connector and wires through blower ac-
cess panel opening.
5 - Select desired speeds for heatingandcooling. (Red=
heating,Black = cooling,White = common).See table
20.
6 - Depress harness connector tab to release wire termi-
nal. Select connector location for new speed (refer to
unit wiring diagram). Insert wire terminal until it is securely in place. See figure 39.
7 - Replace harness connector to motor .
