UNIT SUSPENSION / INSTALLATION
UNIT SUSPENSION
Be sure the means of suspension is adequate to support the
weight of the unit (see Dimensional Data for unit weights). For
proper operation, the unit must be installed in a level horizontal
position. Combustible material and service clearances as
specified in Figure 3.1 and Tables 3.2 and 3.3 must be strictly
maintained.
1. Four 1/2" - 13NC tapped holes in top of furnace are provided
to accept ceiling hangers. To assure that flames are directed
into the center of the heat exchanger tubes, the furnace must
be supported in a vertical position. Use a spirit level to ensure
that unit is suspended correctly.
2. NOTE: A pipe hanger adapter kit, shown in Figure 4.1, is
available as an accessory. One kit consists of two drilled
3/4" IPS pipe caps and two 1/2 - 13 x 1-3/4" capscrews to
facilitate threaded pipe suspension. Two kits are required for
mounting all duct furnace models.
Figure 4.1 - Suspension Methods
Duct Installation
1. The furnace is designed to accept straight ductwork. See
Figure 4.3. Provide an airtight seal between the ductwork
and the furnace. Seams with cracks in ductwork should be
caulked and/or taped and be of permanent type. All duct
connections MUST be airtight to prevent air leakage.
2. Provide removable access panels on both the upstream and
downstream sides of the ductwork; see Figure 4.3. These
openings should be large enough to view smoke or reflect
light inside the casing to indicate leaks in the heat exchanger
and to check for hot spots on heat exchangers due to poor air
distribution or lack of sufficient air (CFM)

IMPORTANT
To prevent premature heat exchanger failure, observe heat
exchanger tubes by looking at the heat exchanger through
field installed access openings in connecting ductwork. If
the bottom of the tubes become red while blower and duct
furnace are in operation, additional baffles must be inserted
between blower and duct furnace to assure uniform air flow
across the heat exchanger.
1. Provide uniform air distribution over the heat exchanger.
Use turning vanes where required (see Figure 5.1) to obtain
uniform air distribution. Avoid installing as in “G”, “H” & “J” of
Figure 5.1.
2. A bottom, horizontal discharge type blower should be
installed at least 12" from the furnace (See “A”, Figure 5.1).
3. A top, horizontal discharge type blower should be installed at
least 24" from the furnace (See “B”, Figure 5.1). Provide air
baffle at top of duct to deflect air down to the bottom of heat
exchanger.
Airflow Reversal Note:If factory installed discharge air options
(thermostat, freeze protection, etc.) were provided, these
options would have to be relocated to the discharge air side of
the duct furnace.

Venting
WARNING
1. Gas fired heating equipment must be vented - do not
operate unvented.
2. A built-in power exhauster is provided - additional external
power exhausters are not required or permitted.
3. If you are replacing an existing heater, it may be necessary
to resize the venting systems. Improperly sized venting
systems can result in vent gas leakage or the formation of
condensate. Refer to the National Fuel Gas Code ANSI
Z223.1 or CSA B149.1 latest edition. Failure to follow these
instructions can result in injury or death.
4. Under no circumstances should two sections of double wall
vent pipe be joined together within one horizontal vent system
due to the inability to verify complete seal of inner pipes.
NOTE: A vent is the vertical passageway used to convey
flue gases from the unit or the vent connector to the outside
atmosphere. A vent connector is the pipe which connects the
unit to a vent or chimney. Vent connectors serving Category
I appliances shall not be connected into any portion of
mechanical draft systems operating under positive pressure.
General Venting Instructions
1. Installation of venting must conform with local building codes,
or in the absence of local codes, with the National Fuel Gas
Code, ANSI Z223.1 (NFPA 54) - Latest Edition. In Canada,
installation must be in accordance with CAN/CGA-B149.1 for
natural gas units and CAN/CGA-B149.2 for propane units.
2. All vertically vented units are Category I. All horizontally vented
units are Category III. The installation must conform to the
requirements from Table 6.2 in addition to those listed below.
3. For units vented as Category I, refer to Table 6.1 for vent
sizing. Vent sizing for units vented as Category III are covered
in a later section on page 7. Do not use a vent pipe smaller
than the size of the outlet or vent transition of the appliance.
The pipe should be suitable corrosion resistant material.
Follow the National Fuel Gas Code for minimum thickness
and composition of vent material. The minimum thickness for
connectors varies depending on the pipe diameter.
Table 6.1 - Vertical Category I Vent Sizing Requirements
Vent Connector
Model Size
75-125
150-1754"5"
2006"6"
225-400
➀ Requires a 4" to 5" adapter for the larger vent pipe diameter.
4. For Category I vent systems limit length of horizontal runs to
75% of vertical height. Install with a minimum upward slope
from unit of 1/4 inch per foot and suspend securely from
overhead structure at points no greater than 3 feet apart.
For best venting, put vertical vent as close to the unit as
possible. A minimum of 12" straight pipe is recommended
from the power exhauster outlet before turns in the vent
system. Fasten individual lengths of vent together with at
least three corrosion-resistant sheet-metal screws.
5. It is recommended that vent pipes be fitted with a tee with a
drip leg and a clean out cap to prevent any moisture in the
vent pipe from entering the unit. The drip leg should be inspected
and cleaned out periodically during the heating season.
6. The National Fuel Gas Code requires a minimum clearance
of 6 inches from combustible materials for single wall vent
pipe. The minimum distance from combustible materials is
based on the combustible material surface not exceeding
160°F. Clearance from the vent pipe (or the top of the unit)
may be required to be greater than 6 inches if heat damage
other than fire (such as material distortion or discoloration)
could result.

7. Avoid venting through unheated space. When venting does
pass through an unheated space, insulate runs greater than
5 feet to minimize condensation. Inspect for leakage prior to
insulating and use insulation that is noncombustible with a
rating of not less than 350°F. Install a tee fitting at the low
point of the vent system and provide a drip leg with a clean
out cap as shown in Figure 7.1.

Non-condensing requirements.
IINegative vent pressure Condensate must be
Condensing drained.
IIIPositive vent pressure Vent must be gastight.
Non-condensing
IVPositive vent pressure Vent must be liquid and
Condensing gastight. Condensate must
be drained.
8. When the vent passes through a combustible wall or floor,
a metal thimble 4 inches greater than the vent diameter is
necessary. If there is 6 feet or more of vent pipe in the
open space between the appliance and where the vent
pipe passes through the wall or floor, the thimble need only
be 2 inches greater than the diameter of the vent pipe. If a
thimble is not used, all combustible material must be cut
away to provide 6 inches of clearance. Any material used
to close the opening must be noncombustible.
9. Do NOT use dampers or other devices in the vent pipes.
10. Precautions must be taken to prevent degradation of
building materials by flue products.
11. For category I vent systems the outlet of the vent should
extend as shown in Figure 7.1 and Table 7.1 if the following
conditions are met:
• Vent diameter is less than 12 inches, vent is of double
wall construction and is a listed product, and the vent
does not terminate within 2' of a vertical wall or similar
obstruction.
• For vents that have a diameter of 12 inches or larger,
constructed of single wall, or terminate within 2' of a
vertical wall or similar obstruction, the vent pipe shall
extend at least 2' higher than any portion of a building
within a horizontal distance of 10' (refer to Figure 7.1).
12. Use a listed vent terminal to reduce downdrafts and
moisture in vent.
13. For instructions on common venting refer to the National
Fuel Gas Code.
14. The vent must terminate no less than 5' above the vent
connector for Category I vent systems.
15. A unit located within an unoccupied attic or concealed space
shall not be vented with single wall vent pipe.
16. Single wall vent pipe must not pass through any attic, inside
wall, concealed space, or floor.
17. Do NOT vent this appliance into a masonry chimney.
18. When condensation may be a problem, the venting system
shall not terminate over public walkways or over an area
where condensation or vapor could create a nuisance or
hazard or could be detrimental to the operation of regulator
relief openings or other equipment.
19. In cold ambient conditions, such as Canada, the following
items are recommended for proper operation and
equipment life:
• The vent pipe must not pass through an unheated space
or interior part of an open chimney unless the vent pipe is
insulated.
• Where the vent pipe may be exposed to extreme cold, or
come into contact with snow or ice, the entire vent must
be insulated or double wall (includes outdoors). It is
preferred that the double wall vent is one continuous
piece but a joint is allowed outside the building.
• The heater system shall be checked at least once a year
by a qualified service technician.

WARNING
1. All field gas piping must be pressure/leak tested prior to
operation. Never use an open flame. Use a soap solution or
equivalent for testing.
2. Gas pressure to appliance controls must never exceed 14"
W.C. (1/2 psi).
3. To reduce the opportunity for condensation, the minimum sea
level input to the appliance, as indicated on the serial plate,
must not be less than 5% below the rated input, or 5% below
the minimum rated input of duel rated units.
CAUTION
Purging of air from gas lines should be performed as
described in ANSI Z223.1 - latest edition “National Fuel Gas
Code”, or in Canada in CAN/CGA-B149 codes.
IMPORTANT
To prevent premature heat exchanger failure, the input to the
appliance, as indicated on the serial plate, must not exceed
the rated input by more than 5%.
1. Installation of piping must conform with local building codes,
or in the absence of local codes, with the National Fuel Gas
Code, ANSI Z223.1 (NFPA 54) - Latest Edition. In Canada,
installation must be in accordance with CAN/CGA-B149.1 for
natural gas units and CAN/CGA-B149.2 for propane units.
2. Piping to units should conform with local and national
requirements for type and volume of gas handled, and
pressure drop allowed in the line. Refer to Table 10.1 to
determine the cubic feet per hour (cfh) for the type of gas
and size of unit to be installed. Using this cfh value and the
length of pipe necessary, determine the pipe diameter from
Table 8.1. Where several units are served by the same main,
the total capacity, cfh and length of main must be considered.
Avoid pipe sizes smaller than 1/2". Table 8.1 allows for a 0.3"
W.C. pressure drop in the supply pressure from the building
main to the unit. The inlet pressure to the unit must be 6-7"
W.C. for natural gas and 11-14" W.C. for propane gas. When
sizing the inlet gas pipe diameter, make sure that the unit
supply pressure can be met after the 0.3" W.C. has been
subtracted. If the 0.3" W.C. pressure drop is too high, refer to
the Gas Engineer’s Handbook for other gas pipe capacities.
3. The gas piping to the unit can enter the unit from the side of
the unit or from below. Install a ground joint union with brass
seat and a manual shut-off valve external of the unit casing,
and adjacent to the unit for emergency shut-off and easy
servicing of controls, including a 1/8" NPT plugged tapping
accessible for test gauge connection (See Figure 8.1).
4. Provide a sediment trap before each unit in the line where low
spots cannot be avoided. (See Figure 8.1).
5. When Pressure/Leak testing, pressures above 14" W.C. (1/2
psi), close the field installed shut-off valve, disconnect the
appliance and its combination gas control from the gas supply
line, and plug the supply line before testing. When testing
pressures 14" W.C. (1/2 psi) or below, close the manual shutoff valve on the appliance before testing.

START-UP PROCEDURE
IMPORTANT
Start-up and adjustment procedures should be performed by a
qualified service agency.
1. Turn off power to the unit at the disconnect switch. Check
that fuses or circuit breakers are in place and sized
correctly. Turn all hand gas valves to the “OFF” position.
2. Check that the supply voltage matches the unit supply
voltage listed on the serial plate. Verify that all wiring is
secure and properly protected. Trace circuits to insure that
the unit has been wired according to the wiring diagram.
3. Check to insure that the venting system is installed and free
from obstructions.
4. Check to see that there are no obstructions to the intake
and discharge of the duct furnace.
5. Perform a visual inspection of the unit to make sure no
damage has occurred during installation.
6. Turn on power to the unit at the disconnect switch. Check to
insure that the voltage between terminals 1 and 2 is 24V.
7. Check the thermostat, ignition control, gas valve, power
exhauster motor, and supply fan blower motor for electrical
operation. If these do not function, recheck the wiring
diagram. Check to insure that none of the Gas Control
Options & Accessories (see page 14) have tripped.
8. Recheck the gas supply pressure at the field installed
manual-shut-off valve. The inlet pressure should be 6"-7”
W.C. on natural gas and 11"-14” W.C. on propane gas.
If inlet pressure is too high, install an additional pressure
regulator upstream of the combination gas control.
9. Open the field installed manual gas shut-off valve.
10. Open the manual main gas valve on the combination gas
control. Call for heat with the thermostat. On a call for heat,
the power exhauster relay will energize the power exhauster
motor. Once the power exhauster motor has reached full
speed, the differential pressure switch will close. Once
closed, the ignition controller will attempt to light the pilot.
If the pilot does not light, purge the pilot line. If air purging
is required, disconnect the pilot line at outlet of pilot valve.
In no case should the line be purged into heat exchanger.
Check the pilot flame length (See Pilot Burner Adjustment).
11. Once the pilot has been established, check to make sure
that the main gas valve opens. Check the manifold gas
pressure (See Main Burner Adjustment) and flame length
(See Air Shutter Adjustment) while the circulating air blower
is operating.
12. Check to insure that gas controls sequence properly
(See Control Operating Sequence). Verify if the unit has
any additional control devices and set according to the
instructions in the Gas Controls Options.
13. Once proper operation of the duct furnace has been
verified, remove any jumper wires that were required for
testing.
14. Close the electrical compartment door.

START-UP PROCEDURE
Pilot Burner Adjustment
The pilot burner is orificed to burn properly with an inlet pressure
of 6-7" W.C. on natural gas and 11-14" W.C. on propane gas, but
final adjustment must be made after installation. If the pilot flame
is too long or large, it is possible that it may cause soot and/or
impinge on the heat exchanger causing failure. If the pilot flame
is shorter than shown, it may cause poor ignition and result in
the controls not opening the combination gas control. A short
flame can be caused by a dirty pilot orifice. Pilot flame condition
should be observed periodically to assure trouble-free operation.
To Adjust the Pilot Flame
1. Create a call for heat from the thermostat.
2. Remove the cap from the pilot adjustment screw. For location,
see the combination gas control literature supplied with unit.
3. Adjust the pilot length by turning the screw in or out to achieve
a soft steady flame 3/4" to 1" long and encompassing 3/8"1/2" of the tip of the thermocouple or flame sensing rod (See
Figure 10.1).
4. Replace the cap from the pilot adjustment screw.
Figure 10.1 - Correct Pilot Flame
3/4" to 1"
Main Burner Adjustment
The gas pressure regulator (integral to the combination gas
control) is adjusted at the factory for average gas conditions. It is
important that gas be supplied to the duct furnace in accordance
with the input rating on the serial plate. Actual input should
be checked and necessary adjustments made after the duct
furnace is installed. Over-firing, a result of too high an input,
reduces the life of the appliance and increases maintenance.
Under no circumstances should the input exceed that shown on
the serial plate.
Measuring the manifold pressure is done at the tee in the
manifold for premium gas controls (Digit 13=0, 1, 2, or 3) or
at the pressure tap on the gas valve for standard gas controls
(Digit 13=4)." (See Figure 10.2).
To Adjust the Manifold Pressure
1. Move the field installed manual shut-off valve to the “OFF”
position.
2. Remove the 1/8" pipe plug in the pipe tee or gas valve and
attach a water manometer of “U” tube type which is at least
12" high.
3. Move the field installed manual gas shut-off valve to the “ON”
position.
4. Create a high fire call for heat from the thermostat.
5. Determine the correct high fire manifold pressure. For
natural gas 3.5” W.C., for propane gas 10” W.C. Adjust the
main gas pressure regulator spring to achieve the proper
manifold pressure (for location, see the combination gas
control literature supplied with unit).
6. If the unit has Electronic Modulation gas controls (determine
from the Model Identification Digit 12), the low fire gas
pressure needs to be adjusted. Using Figure 10.3 for item
number locations, this is accomplished as follows:
a. Disconnect power.
b. Remove all wires from Maxitrol Amplifier terminal “3” or
duct furnace terminal “43” (if available).
c. Turn on power at the disconnect switch.
d. Remove the maximum adjustment screw (4), spring
(5), and plunger (8). A small magnet is useful for this
purpose. CAUTION - The plunger is a precision part.
Handle carefully to avoid marring or picking up grease
and dirt. Do not lubricate.
e. Using minimum adjusting screw (9), adjust low fire
manifold pressure to 0.56" W.C. for natural gas and
1.6" W.C. for propane gas.
f. Replace plunger and spring retainer, spring, and
maximum adjusting screw in proper order.
g. Using maximum adjustment screw (4), adjust high fire
manifold pressure to 3.5" W.C. for natural gas and 10"
W.C. for propane gas.
h. Disconnect power.
i. Replace cover plate (2) and re-install all wires from
Maxitrol amplifier terminal “3” or duct furnace terminal “43”.
7. After adjustment, move the field installed manual shut-off
valve to the “OFF” position and replace the 1/8" pipe plug.
8. After the plug is in place, move the field installed manual
shut-off valve to the “ON” position and recheck pipe plugs for
gas leaks with soap solution.
Proper operation provides a soft blue flame with a well-defined
inner core. A lack of primary air will reveal soft yellow-tipped
flames. Excess primary air produces short, well-defined flames
with a tendency to lift off the burner ports. For both natural
and propane gas, the air shutters can be adjusted to control
the burner flame height. The air shutters can be accessed by
reaching behind the gas valve in Figure
may require the removal of the manifold (see Manifold Assembly
Removal).
Natural Gas Flame Control
Control of burner flames on duct furnaces utilizing natural gas
is achieved by resetting the primary air shutters (See Figure
19.1) to either increase or decrease primary combustion air.
Prior to flame adjustment, operate duct furnace for about fifteen
minutes. The main burner flame can be viewed after loosening
and pushing aside the gas designation disc on the side of the
burner box.
To increase primary air, loosen the air shutter set screws and
move the air shutters closer to the manifold until the yellowtipped flames disappear. (See Figure 19.1 for air shutter and
heat exchanger support locations.) To decrease primary air,
move the air shutters away from the manifolds until flames
no longer lift from burner ports, but being careful not to cause
yellow tipping. Retighten set screws after adjustment.
Propane Gas Flame Control
An optimum flame will show a slight yellow tip. Prior to flame
adjustment, operate furnace for at least fifteen minutes. Loosen
air shutter set screws and move the air shutters away from the
manifold to reduce the primary air until the yellow flame tips
appear. Then increase the primary air until yellow tips diminish
and a clean blue flame with a well defined inner cone appears.

START-UP PROCEDURE
IMPORTANT
To prevent premature heat exchanger failure, with all control
systems, a blower starting mechanism must be provided so
that the blower is running or energized within 45 seconds of
the gas control operation.
Control Operating Sequence
Indoor power vented duct furnaces are supplied with intermittent
pilot systems with continuous retry as standard. On mechanical
modulation systems the main burner is turned off 100%
when the thermostat is satisified, but the pilot remains lit. For
intermittent pilot systems, except mechanical modulation both
the main burner and pilot burner are turned off 100% when
the thermostat is satisfied. Intermittent pilot systems, for both
natural and propane gas, the ignition controller is 100% shut-off
with continuous retry. On a call for heat, the system will attempt
to light the pilot for 70 seconds. If the pilot is not sensed for
any reason, the ignition control will wait for approximately six
minutes with the combination gas control closed and no spark.
After six minutes, the cycle will begin again. After three cycles,
some ignition controllers lockout for approximately one hour
before the cycle begins again. This will continue indefinitely until
the pilot flame is sensed or power is interrupted to the system.
NOTE: Gas Control Options (see page 14) could change the
listed sequence of operation based on their function.
The descriptions given are for the basic duct furnace.
Single-Stage Gas Controls
Utilizes a single-stage combination gas, an ignition control, and
a single-stage low voltage thermostat.
1. The thermostat calls for heat.
2. The power exhauster relay is energized starting the power
exhauster motor. Once the motor has reached full speed, the
differential pressure switch closes. The power exhauster relay
pre-purge timer closes after 20 to 40 seconds energizing the
gas control circuit.
3. The pilot valve opens and the spark ignitor sparks in an
attempt to light the pilot. (If the unit was not provided with a
time delay relay, the blower starts at this time.)
4. Once the pilot is lit, the flame sensor proves the pilot and
stops the spark ignitor from sparking.
5. The main gas valve is opened and the main burner is lit to
100% full fire.
6. If the unit was provided with a time delay relay, the blower
starts after 30 to 45 seconds.
7. The unit continues to operate until the thermostat is satisfied,
at which time both the main and pilot valves close 100%. (If
the unit was not provided with a time delay relay, the blower
stops at this time).
8. If the unit was provided with a time delay relay, the blower
stops after 30 to 45 seconds.
Two-Stage Gas Controls
Utilizes a two-stage combination gas control, an ignition control,
and a two-stage low voltage thermostat. The unit fires at 50%
fire on low stage and 100% fire on high stage.
1. The thermostat calls for low stage heat.
2. The power exhauster relay is energized starting the power
exhauster motor. Once the motor has reached full speed, the
differential pressure switch closes. The power exhauster relay
pre-purge timer closes after 20 to 40 seconds energizing the
gas control circuit.
3. The pilot valve opens and the spark ignitor sparks in an
attempt to light the pilot. (If the unit was not provided with a
time delay relay, the blower starts at this time.)
4. Once the pilot is lit, the flame sensor proves the pilot and
stops the spark ignitor from sparking.
5. The main gas valve is opened and the main burner is lit to
50% fire.
6. If the unit was provided with a time delay relay, the blower
starts after 30 to 45 seconds.
7. If the temperature at the thermostat continues to fall, the
thermostat will call for high stage heat.
8. The main gas valve is opened completely and the main
burner is lit to 100% full fire.
9. The unit continues to operate until the high stage of the
thermostat is satisfied, at which time the main valve closes
to 50% fire.
10. The unit continues to operate until the low stage thermostat
is satisfied, at which time both the main and pilot valves
close 100%. (If the unit was not provided with a time delay
relay, the blower stops at this time.)
11. If the unit was provided with a time delay relay, the blower
stops after 30 to 45 seconds.
Mechanical Modulating Gas Controls (Natural Gas Only)
Utilizes a mechanical modulating gas control and an ignition
control. The mechanical modulating gas control is designed
for use in constant blower applications. The discharge air
temperature is maintained by setting the control dial of the
modulating gas valve in one of ten positions. A hydrostatic
sensing bulb located in the discharge air stream controls the gas
flow between 40% through 100% full fire. When the discharge
air hydrostatic sensing bulb is satisfied, the modulating valve
closes completely, but the pilot remains lit.
This control cannot be used with a room override thermostat.
1. Power is supplied to the unit through either an exhaust fan
interlock contact or a start/stop switch.
2. The power exhauster relay is energized starting the power
exhauster motor. Once the motor has reached full speed, the
differential pressure switch closes. The power exhauster relay
pre-purge timer closes after 20 to 40 seconds energizing the
gas control circuit.
3. The pilot valve opens and the spark ignitor sparks in an
attempt to light the pilot. (If the unit was not provided with a
time delay relay, the blower starts at this time.)
4. Once the pilot is lit, the flame sensor proves the pilot and
stops the spark ignitor from sparking.
5. The hydrostatic sensing bulb, integral to the mechanical
modulating gas valve, calls for heat. The main gas valve is
opened and the main burner is lit. The burner modulates
between 40% through 100% fire based on the call for heat.
6. If the unit was provided with a time delay relay, the blower
starts after 30 to 45 seconds.
7. The unit continues to operate until the hydrostatic sensing
bulb is satisfied, at which time the main valve closes 100%,
but the pilot remains lit.
8. The unit blower (and pilot) continues to operate until either an
exhaust fan interlock contact or a start/stop switch is opened.
If the unit was provided with a time delay relay, the blower
stops after 30 to 45 seconds.

START-UP PROCEDURE
Electronic Modulating Gas Controls
Single Furnace
Utilizes an electronic modulating/regulating gas control,
combination gas valve, an ignition control, modulating amplifier,
and either a modulating room thermostat or modulating duct
thermostat with remote temperature set point adjuster. The
thermostat controls can modulate the gas flow between 40%
through 100% full fire. When the thermostat is satisfied, the amplifier
cuts power to the combination gas valve which prevents gas
flow to both the main and pilot burners.
When duct sensing is utilized, a room override thermostat can
be added. When calling for heat, the room override thermostat
provides full fire operation until the space temperature is
satisfied. Control is then returned to the duct sensing control.
In this situation, either the duct sensor or the room override
thermostat can call for heat.
1. The thermostat calls for heat.
2. The power exhauster relay is energized starting the power
exhauster motor. Once the motor has reached full speed, the
differential pressure switch closes. The power exhauster relay
pre-purge timer closes after 20 to 40 seconds energizing the
gas control circuit.
3. The pilot valve opens and the spark ignitor sparks in an
attempt to light the pilot. (If the unit was not provided with a
time delay relay, the blower starts at this time.)
4. Once the pilot is lit, the flame sensor proves the pilot and
stops the spark ignitor from sparking.
5. The main gas valve is opened and the main burner is lit to
100% full fire.
6. If the unit was provided with a time delay relay, the blower
starts after 30 to 45 seconds.
7. The modulating gas valve can be controlled by either an
electronic modulating room or duct thermostat. The thermostat
can modulate the firing rate between 40% through 100% full fire.
The call for heat is created by a resistance signal (8000 to 12000
ohms) in the thermostat. The amplifier converts this resistance
into a DC voltage (0 to 12 volts DC with 0 volts high fire and 12
volts low fire). The output voltage is applied to the modulating
gas valve to control the gas flow to the main burner. As the
temperature drops, the voltage drops causing the modulating
valve to open further. If the discharge air temperature increases,
the voltage increases causing the modulating valve to close
allowing less gas flow to the main burner. For further information
regarding the operation of the electronic modulating system,
consult the literature provided with the unit.
8. The unit continues to operate in this manner until the
thermostat is satisfied, at which time both the main and pilot
valves close 100%. (If the unit was not provided with a time
delay relay, the blower stops at this time.)
9. If the unit was provided with a time delay relay, the blower
stops after 30 to 45 seconds.
Electronic Modulating Gas Controls - Master/Slave
One Master furnace is provided with up to three Slave furnaces
that utilize electronic modulating/regulating gas controls,
combination gas valves, ignition controls, one multiple furnace
modulating amplifier, and either a modulating room thermostat
or modulating duct thermostat with remote temperature adjuster.
The thermostat controls can modulate the gas flow of all the
furnaces between 40% through 100% full fire. The amplifier
sends a signal to all of the gas valves so that they modulate
at the same percentage. When the thermostat is satisfied,
the amplifier cuts power to the combination gas valves which
prevents gas flow to both the main and pilot burners.
When duct sensing is utilized, a room override thermostat can
be added. When calling for heat, the room override thermostat
provides full fire operation until the space temperature is
satisfied. Control is then returned to the duct sensing control.
In this situation, either the duct sensor or the room override
thermostat can call for heat.
5-564
The sequence of operation for Electronic Modulating Gas
Controls - Master/Slave is the same as Electronic Modulating
Gas Controls - Single Furnace.
Electronic Modulating Gas Controls - Building
Management Control (0-10Vdc or 4-20 mA Signal)
Utilizes an electronic modulating/regulating gas control,
combination gas valve, an ignition control, modulating signal
conditioner, and an inverted (0 Vdc or 4 mA being high fire and
10 Vdc or 20 mA being low fire) 0-10 Vdc or 4-20 mA input
signal provided by a Building Management System (BMS). The
signal conditioner can modulate the gas flow between 40%
through 100% full fire. When the BMS thermostat (field supplied)
is satisfied, the BMS heat contact (field supplied) opens to cut
power to the combination gas valve which prevents gas flow to
both the main and pilot burners.
1. The BMS thermostat (field supplied) calls for heat and closes
the BMS heat contact (field supplied).
2. The power exhauster relay is energized starting the power
exhauster motor. Once the motor has reached full speed, the
differential pressure switch closes. The power exhauster relay
pre-purge timer closes after 20 to 40 seconds energizing the
gas control circuit.
3. The pilot valve opens and the spark ignitor sparks in an
attempt to light the pilot. (If the unit was not provided with a
time delay relay, the blower starts at this time.)
4. Once the pilot is lit, the flame sensor proves the pilot and
stops the spark ignitor from sparking.
5. The main gas valve is opened and the main burner is lit to
100% full fire.
6. If the unit was provided with a time delay relay, the blower
starts after 30 to 45 seconds.
7. The modulating gas valve is controlled by the BMS
thermostat. The thermostat can modulate the firing rate
between 40% through 100% full fire by modulating the input
signal between either 0-10 Vdc or 4-20 mA (The signal
conditioner can accept a 0-10 Vdc signal when all the dip
switches are in the “OFF” position and 4-20 mA signal when
all the dip switches are in the “ON” position). The signal
conditioner converts the input signal into a DC voltage (0
to 12 volts DC with 0 volts high fire and 12 volts low fire).
The output voltage is applied to the modulating gas valve to
control the gas flow to the main burner. As the temperature
drops, the voltage drops causing the modulating valve to open
further. If the discharge air temperature increases, the voltage
increases causing the modulating valve to close allowing less
gas flow to the main burner. For further information regarding
the operation of the electronic modulating system, consult the
literature provided with the unit.
8. The unit continues to operate in this manner until the
thermostat is satisfied, at which time the BMS heat contact
opens resulting in both the main and pilot valves closing
100%. (If the unit was not provided with a time delay relay, the
blower stops at this time.)
9. If the unit was provided with a time delay relay, the blower
stops after 30 to 45 seconds.
Variable Air Movement Applications
When the air mover supplied by others can provide variable
air movement (i.e. 2-speed or variable frequency drive units),
the allowable minimum CFM of the duct furnace can be 66% of
the minimum listed CFM in Table 16.1 if the unit is applied as
follows:
1. The unit is provided with 2-stage, mechanical modulation, or
electronic modulating gas controls. (see Model Identification).
2. The unit is provided with a factory installed discharge air
controller.
3. The system does not include a room thermostat.
The factory installed discharge air thermostat will prevent the
unit from firing above the allowable 100°F rise when the unit is
at or above the minimum CFM by monitoring the discharge air
and going to low fire. A room thermostat, because it is located
remote from the unit, could cause the unit to over-fire.

Gas Control Options
The unit must be reviewed to determine if any of the listed gas
control options were supplied.
➀ Time Delay Relay
The Time Delay Relay is factory installed in the duct furnace
electrical junction box. The standard duct furnace is provided
for instantaneous fan operation. On a call for heat, the blower is
energized at the same time as the gas controls. The optional time
delay relay allows the gas controls to operate for approximately 30
seconds before the blower starts. This allows the heat exchanger
a warm up period so that the initial delivered air coming out of the
ductwork is not cool. The time delay relay also keeps the motor
running for approximately 30 seconds after the call for heat has
been satisfied to remove the residual heat from the heat exchanger.
➁ Low Gas Pressure Switch
The low gas pressure switch is factory installed in the duct furnace
above the gas train. The switch monitors the gas pressure upstream
of all the gas controls and shuts off the electric supply to the
ignition controller and combination gas valve if low gas pressure is
experienced. This will shut off all gas flow to the burner. The switch
has an automatic reset so that if the gas pressure is interrupted
and then is returned, the switch will automatically allow the unit to
operate when gas conditions are returned to the allowable range
of the pressure switch. The pressure switch range is 2" to 14" W.C.
and should be set to insure that the minimum inlet gas pressure is
available (6" W.C. for natural gas, 11" W.C. for propane gas).
➂ High Gas Pressure Switch
The high gas pressure switch is factory installed in the duct
furnace above the gas train. The switch monitors the gas pressure
downstream of all the gas controls and shuts off the electric supply
to the ignition controller and combination gas valve if high gas
pressure is experienced right before the manifold. This will shut off
all gas flow to the burner. The switch has a manual reset so that if
the gas pressure is too high, a service person must check the unit
to make sure that none of the gas controls have been damaged
by the high gas pressure and then reset the switch to allow the
unit to operate when gas conditions are returned to the allowable
range of the pressure switch. The pressure switch range is 2" to 16"
W.C. and should be set to insure that the maximum manifold gas
pressure is not exceeded (3.5" W.C. for natural gas, 10" W.C. for
propane gas).
➅ Air Flow Proving Switch
The air flow proving switch is factory installed in the duct furnace
electrical junction box. The air flow proving switch monitors the
pressure differential between the duct furnace and the atmosphere.
The purpose of the air flow proving switch is to cut power to the
gas controls if a positive pressure is not measured by the switch.
This could be caused by a lack of air movement through the heat
exchanger.
NOTE: The air flow proving switch will prevent any heat
exchanger warm-up (the unit should not be equipped with
a time delay relay) because the gas controls can not be
energized until air flow is proven.
Setting the Air Flow Proving Switch
The range of the air flow proving switch is adjustable between 0.17"
to 5.0" W.C.
1. Set the thermostat so that there is a call for heat. This should fire
the burner and the blower should start.
2. Turn the set screw of the pressure switch clockwise until it stops.
This will set the pressure at 5.0" W.C.
3. Turn the screw counter-clockwise until the gas controls light and
then one additional full turn (This is approximately 0.25'' W.C.).
This will allow for dirty filters or any other slight static pressure
increases in the system.
➆ Manual Reset High Limit
The manual reset high limit switch is factory installed in place
of the standard automatic reset high limit switch located in the
duct furnace electrical junction box. In case of a failure of the
blower motor, blockage of the inlet air, etc., the manual reset
switch prevents the unit from cycling on the high limit. If the limit
temperature is exceeded, a service person must inspect the unit for
the cause of the high discharge temperature, take corrective action,
and then reset the switch.
Figure 14.1 - Location of Gas Control Options
➃ Supply Air Fire Stat
The fire stat is factory installed in the duct furnace electrical junction
box with the sensor in the discharge air stream. In case of elevated
temperatures in the supply air, the manual reset switch shuts
down the entire unit. If the limit temperature is exceeded, a service
person must inspect the unit for the cause of the high discharge
temperature, take corrective action, and then reset the switch.
➄ Timed Freeze Protection
The timed freeze protection system is factory installed in the duct
furnace electrical junction box with the sensor (30°-75°F adjustable)
factory installed in discharge air stream. On initial start-up, the
timed delay in the system allows the unit to go through the normal
ignition sequence. The timed delay is an automatic reset switch and
adjustable for 1-10 minutes. In the event that the unit fails to fire
after this period, the discharge air sensor will sense the cold air and
will shut down the entire unit.

When providing annual maintenance for the duct furnace, keep
the unit free from dust, dirt, grease and foreign matter. Pay
particular attention to:
1. The exhaust vent piping and vent terminal.
2. The burner ports and pilot burner orifices (avoid the use of
hard, sharp instruments capable of damaging surfaces for
cleaning these ports). To check the burner port and pilot
burner orifice, see Burner and Pilot Assembly Removal.
3. The air shutters and main burner orifices (avoid the use of
hard, sharp instruments capable of damaging surfaces for
cleaning these orifices). To check the air shutters and main
burner orifices, see for Manifold Assembly Removal.
The heat exchanger should be checked annually for cracks
and discoloration of the tubes. If a crack is detected, the heat
exchanger should be replaced before the unit is put back into
service. If the tubes are dark gray, airflow across the heat
exchanger should be checked to insure that a blockage has not
occurred or the blower is operating properly.
Power Exhauster Motor
The power exhaust motor bearings have been lubricated
for long life and do not require additional lubrication. In dirty
atmosphere, it may be desirable to clean the motors and blower
housing and blow out the cooling air passages of the motor with
compressed air.
Electrical Wiring
The electrical wiring should be checked annually for loose
connections or deteriorated insulation.
Blower Assembly
The blower assembly includes the bearings, drive sheaves and
belts.
Blower bearings should be checked and lubricated based on the
blower manufacturer’s recommendations. Bearings should also
be checked for any unusual wear and replaced if needed.
Drive sheaves should be checked at the same time the bearings
are inspected. Check to make sure the sheaves are in alignment
and are securely fastened to the blower and motor shafts.
Belt tension should be rechecked shortly after the unit has been
installed to check for belt stretching. After the initial start-up,
monthly checks are recommended.
