INTRODUCTION

Superior Radiant Products is a company in the infrared heating industry founded on the principles of product

quality and consumer commitment.

Quality commitment is evidenced by superior design, a regard for design detail and an upgrade of materials
wherever justifiable.

Customer commitment is apparent through our ready responses to market demands and a never ending training
and service support program for and through our distributor network.

The Premier VS Vacuum System is the culmination of decades of infrared expertise and commitment to quality
products. The VS system is easy to install and maintain, offers flexibility of design which is unmatched in the
industry and provides economical and trouble free operation.

Important

These instructions, the layout drawing, local codes and ordinances, and applicable standards such as
apply to gas piping and electrical wiring comprise the basic information needed to complete the
installation, and must be thoroughly understood along with general building codes before proceeding.

Only personnel who have been trained and understand all applicable codes should undertake the
installation. SRP Representatives are Factory Certified in the service and application of this
equipment and can be called on for helpful suggestions about installation.

Operating Principle

The PREMIER VS System operates on the following basic principles:

 The Burner Unit can provide Rates from 120,000 to 250,000 BTU/hr.
 Burner Models are specially engineered & built for the individual ‘Positions’ they are installed

in along each Branch.

 Burner Rate (BTU/hr) is determined by the Vacuum Setting of the Branch. Rates can be

adjusted by changing the Vacuum Settings at the Branch End Vent.

 Systems may be operated in ONE of TWO modes:

o Single Rate: Entire system operates at ONE fixed rate using Manual Dampers.
o Modulating Rate: The use of Motorized Dampers allows the System to adjust the overall

Heat Output during operation to meet building demand by automatically changing the
Vacuum Settings of the Branches in the System.

CLEARANCE TO COMBUSTIBLES

A general clearance of 18” (0.5 m) in every direction is required around each Burner, Vacuum Pump, and

End Vent Cap air supply (at the far end of each Radiant Branch) to ensure adequate air flow in and around the
Heating System.

In addition to this it is very important to observe the minimum clearance to combustibles at all times to
avoid any possibility of property damage or personal injury.

 Clearances as marked on the heater body must be maintained from vehicles parked beneath. Signs should be

posted identifying any possible violation of the clearance distances from the heater in all vehicle areas.

 Maximum allowable stacking height in storage areas should be identified with signs or appropriate markings

adjacent to the thermostat or in a conspicuous location.

Combustible materials are considered to be wood, compressed paper, plant fibres, plastic, Plexiglas or other
materials capable of being ignited and burned. Such materials shall be considered combustible even though
flame-proofed, fire-retardant treated or plastered.

The stated clearance to combustibles represents a surface temperature of 90°F (50°C) above room temperature.
Building materials with low heat tolerance (such as plastics, vinyl siding, canvas, tri-ply, etc…) may be
subject to degradation at lower temperatures. It is the installer’s responsibility to assure that adjacent
materials are protected from degradation.

Table A lists the minimum clearance to combustible materials for various installation configurations. Note that
standard clearances also apply to installation above T-bar ceilings and above decorative grills. Additional
clearance may be required for glass, painted surfaces and other materials which may be damaged by radiant or
convective heat.

Note 1:

Bottom Shields are approved for all Burner sizes except the 250,000 BTU/hr model. The
“below” clearance (dimension C in Table A) may be reduced by 25% when an approved
Bottom Shield is used.

Note 2:

Reduced clearances downstream from the Burner are approved for all configurations.
Dimensions “B”, “C”, and “D” in Table A can be reduced for locations 25 ft (7.6 m) or
more downstream from a burner, before the next burner:

- For burner sizes up to 150,000 BTU/hr; maximum reduction 50%

- For burner sizes 155,000 to 250,000 BTU/hr; maximum reduction 40%

INSTALLATION

Preparation

Most vacuum system designs are laid out on a clean blank sheet of paper. Unfortunately, typical construction
does not permit this unimpeded access and therefore some planning and preparation early in the project will
save much time and effort later on.

Start by reviewing the installation procedure. Examine where the equipment will be installed and how it will be
supported. Please pay special attention to any objects that might be in the way or in close proximity to the
heating system. Refer to Table A (Clearance to Combustibles) to ensure a safe distance between the heating
system and any combustible materials.

Acquaint yourself with the standard components referred to in this manual. Many of these components are
shown in detail in Figure 3. They are also shown in general assembly form in Figure 1 and Figure 2 to illustrate
where the components fit in a typical symmetrical system and a non-symmetrical system. (These Figures are

found in the Equipment Specifications section.)

If possible, lay the entire system out on the floor prior to installation. This will help identify any potential
problems with the installation as well as any discrepancy in component quantity. Ensure that all Burners are
those specified for the planned system in both output and gas type.

*DO NOT TRIM / CUT ANY Combustion Tube, adjust the System to fit around the Combustion Tubes.

Layout Limits

Ensure that the System Layout meets the limits required in Table B and
Table C for the Burner Rate you intend the System to function at.

INSTALLATION

Assembly Overview Notes

Generally there is no unique sequence for installation of the Premier VS system. A review of the job site will
often indicate a logical installation order. However, it is typical to start at the end of the branch with the furthest
Burner location and continue that Branch downstream towards the Vacuum Pump, then begin again with the
next Branch. Generally, 10 ft (3 m) increments of Tube and Reflector can be used until one reaches the
Common Tailpipe areas or Vacuum Pump connections. The general order of material in this manual is
recommended for low-hassle installation purposes.

The Installation of the Entire System potentially consists of 5 individual Parts, one Part for each major
component / system;

1- Radiant Line System, (Heat Exchangers)
2- Vacuum Pumps & Ventilation Systems,
3- Optional Combustion Air Supply System,
4- Gas Supply System, and
5- Electrical System(s)

Directions for the installation of each component / system are therefore found in the respective sections
along with general information and safety notes as required

Premier VS Infrared Heating System Page 22 June 04, 2014

INSTALLATION – Part 1

Part 1 - Radiant Line System

For the purpose of this section the term “Radiant Line System” will refer only to the main heat exchanging
components: Tubes, Burners, Reflectors, Tailpipes and attached Optional pieces. These must be hung from
ceiling supports and form the main Radiant Lines & Branches of the Heat Exchanger System.

Installation of the Radiant Line System has been divided into 6 main parts as follows:

Radiant Line Tubes
Tailpipe Tubes
Burners
Reflectors
Option Shield Equipment
Deco-Grille Option

The order they are listed in is recommended for ease of installation and allows for adjustments to be made
easily if required. Other orders of installation are possible; please note that there are certain components which,
once installed, will make it more difficult to install others. Thoroughly read through the following installation
directions for details on individual components.

Figure 9 illustrates the relationship of many of the various components of the Radiant Line System and will be a
useful reference at many times during the installation.

NOTE: The Premier VS System does not typically require the use of Baffles, if Baffles are desired please

consult with the Manufacturer (SRP) prior to installation.

A - Radiant Line Tubes

All Combustion Tubes are heat-treated aluminized steel tubes. On Burners that are to be fired at
150,000 BTU/hr or more, the next 10 ft (3 m) Tube section is to be heat-treated aluminized as
well. The remaining Radiant Tube length can be either hot rolled or heat-treated aluminized
depending on the system design.

1. Locate hanging chain at predetermined points in the structure using methods as shown in Figure 10. The

first 2 hanging points are approximately 7.5 ft (2.3 m) apart to fully support each end of the first Tube.
Thereafter spacing of 10 ft (3 m) is acceptable, i.e. one hanging point per Tube. Ensure that Reflector
Hangers located on a Combustion Tube will be within 8” (20 cm) of the Burner. Ensure that the mounting
height allows a downward slope of ¼” per 10 ft (7 mm per 3 m) towards the Vacuum Pump location.

Welded link chain with a working load limit of at least 500 lbs. (230 kg) is
recommended. The suspension mechanism must allow for lateral expansion of
the Tubing. A minimum length of 12” (30 cm) of hanging chain is
recommended. Using turnbuckles between the chain and the Reflector Hanger
allows for easy height adjustment later.

4. Join consecutive pieces of Tube using Couplings. Insert one end of both Tubes fully into the Coupling.

(Refer to Figure 13). These should be tightened as the Tubing is put in place, as it is more difficult to do so
once the Reflector is installed. Tighten band clamps alternately to prevent buckling of the sleeve, set to
Torque listed. Ensure that the weld seams on ALL other Tubes are facing down.

B - Tailpipe Tubes

1. Continue to install Hangers*, Tubes and Couplings as per Installation Part 1-A: Steps 1 to 3. Ensure that the

mounting height allows a downward slope of ¼” per 10 ft (7 mm per 3 m) towards the Vacuum Pump
location.

*On Tubes which will NOT have Reflectors, i.e. Tailpipe, the use of Hanger Straps instead of Reflector
Hangers is approved.

2. BEFORE installing the Tee Section between the Branch Tailpipes and the Common Tailpipe determine

where the Damper Couplings need to be installed.

3. Check which type of System is being installed, Symmetric (S) or Non-Symmetric (N) as per Figure 1 and

Figure 2. Dampers are positioned to allow the Vacuum Setting at the Branch End Vent to be adjusted
individually for each Branch. Symmetric / Identical Branches require the same Vacuum setting so One
Damper coupling is located before the Tailpipe splits into separate Branches. Non-Symmetric Bra nches
require a separate Damper Coupling for each Branch. For Modulating Rate Systems ensure that Motorized
Damper Couplings are used.

Damper Couplings are ONLY installed in the locations on the System where the respective lette r reference
“S”, OR “N” is located in Figure 15, on all other connections use normal Couplings. Dampers and
Couplings are installed using the same method. (See previous section.)

C - Burners

Burner Position No.1 is at the furthest end of the branch from the Vacuum Pump and the

Each Burner is shipped with a Burner Rating Plate & As-Built Burner Position Label affixed,

with the corresponding Air Plate installed. If the System Design Layout changes and the

Burner must be placed in a position other than the As-Built Burner Position then the Air Plate

INSTALLATION – Part 1

Each Burner in a Premier VS Branch must be placed in its appropriate position,

and have the appropriate Air Plate installed.

Burner number increases as the branch runs towards the Vacuum Pump.

(As shown in Figure 16 & referred to in your System Design Layout)

will need to be replaced with the appropriate one for the required new Position.

(See below figure for details.)

Verify that the Burners are correct for the fuel being burned.

1. Use the J-bolt (included with the Burner packaging) to clamp the Tube snugly at the first Reflector Hanger

after a Burner mounting hole location. This prevents the Tube from twisting / rotating once the Burner is
installed. (Refer to Figure 9 and Figure 17)

2. J-bolts must be installed before the Reflectors are inserted

D - Reflectors

1. Install Reflectors after any Tube Couplings and J-bolts they cover have been installed. (For ease of

installation it is suggested to install Burners before the Reflectors; however it is possible to do the reverse.)

2. *If the System Plan includes Bottom Shields these MUST be put on before the Reflectors as there will be

limited access afterwards. For details see Section E - Optional Shield Equipment.

3. Begin the first Reflector after a Burner with an End Cap about 3” (7.6 cm) downstream of the Burner as

shown in Figure 20 & Figure 21. Install the End Cap using #8 x 3/8” screws. Leaving space in the Reflector
run allows unimpeded installation and servicing of the Burner.

4. Install Reflector Brackets. Place one at each Reflector overlap position and one in the middle of each 10 ft

(3 m) Reflector length. Secure the Brackets loosely with #8 x 3/8” screws. Tighten only the screws for
Brackets in the centre of alternating Reflectors & at every second overlap location. The remaining Reflector
Bracket screws are left loose to accommodate system movement / expansion. Refer to Figure 20 below and
to Figure 9 for a visual of which bolts to tighten and which to leave loose.

5. Continue to slide the Reflectors into place within the Tube/Reflector Hanger up to the next Burner position.

Overlap the Reflectors as shown in Figure 9 and Figure 23.
DO NOT install Reflectors like roofing shingles, by overlapping the same end of the reflector every time.

This will cause damage once the system heats up and components start to expand.

6. When approaching successive Burner locations, ensure the Reflector is as far under the Burner (close to the

Burner mounting hole) as possible, as shown in Figure 22. *Install an End Cap using #8 x 3/8” screws on
the open end of the Reflector which will be under the Burner at the end of the Reflector run.

*Burner Reflectors are for use instead of End Caps. If Burner Reflectors, for Continues Reflector runs,
are required by the System Plan please refer to Section E - Optional Shield Equipment for alternate
Reflector installation details.

Part 2 - Vacuum Pump & Venting

Vacuum Pump

General Requirements

The Vacuum Pump (with permanently mounted motor affixed) is generally located at the height of the system,
bolted to a platform or support structure that is either suspended from the ceiling members or is bolted to a
column or building sidewall. The Vacuum Pump scroll is orientated for the preferred horizontal discharge, but
can be rotated 90 degrees in the field for vertical discharge.

(Refer to Figure 30, Figure 31 and Figure 32 for visuals of Vacuum Pump mounting options.)

*If a lengthy heater run has a 90 degree elbow with a short run to the Vacuum Pump, consider placing the Pump
somewhat off (past) the centerline of the connecting Tailpipe so that as the system grows the Flexible Boot
Connection in fact improves performance.

Safety Warnings

Confirm that the Vacuum Pump’s impeller rotates in the same direction indicated by the arrow on the pump
scroll. To reverse rotation, see instructions on the motor.

WARNING - DO NOT OPERATE THE VACUUM PUMP WHEN NOT INSTALLED

- Unguarded openings can entangle clothing and severe injury can result

- Unrestricted air flow into Vacuum Pump can cause the motor to overload

To ensure maximum safety, a vacuum proving switch is mounted near the inlet of the vacuum pump and
electrically interlocked to the burner power circuit. No fuel gas can flow or ignition begin before the
vacuum proving switch has established the presence of a blower induced vacuum.

See the “Electrical Connections” section for details on wiring the switch.

Premier VS Infrared Heating System Page 43 June 04, 2014

INSTALLATION - Part 2

A - Vacuum Pump Mounting

1. Install Vacuum Pump as per designed system mounting location and position.

2. Ensure that mounting supports are sufficient to withstand the weight and vibration of the Vacuum Pump and

Ventilation System. Welded link chain with a working load limit of at least 200 lbs. (91 kg) is recommended
for mounting vacuum pumps only.

3. Install using the Vacuum Pump Mounting Kit if purchased. (Chain & threaded rods for ceiling mounting

are NOT included in package.)

4. Ensure elevation of Inlet will allow for the alignment of the Tubing with a downward slope of ¼” per 10 ft

(7 mm per 3 m) towards the Vacuum Pump.

5. Ensure that the isolators are placed between the Pump housing and the mounting supports to reduce

vibration transfer to the structure.

See Figure 30, Figure 31 or Figure 32 respectively for mounting type details.

Venting

The Premier VS System is approved for both Sidewall (Horizontal) and Roof (Vertical) Venting.
(Refer to Figure 33 and Figure 34)

General Requirements

Venting must comply with the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/ NFPA-54 in the USA and CAN/CGA
B149.1/B149.2 Installation Code in Canada.

Note: ANSI Z223.1 specifies a minimum 4 ft (1.22 m) horizontal vent terminal clearance from gas and
electric meters, regulators and relief equipment (see clause 1/31/3-m4).

Items Common to both Codes:
(always check for changes to Code – list is for example only)

 Horizontal discharge must be not less than a specified distance above grade
 Vent must not terminate within a specified distance below, horizontally from, or above any window,

door or gravity opening to a building.

 Discharge must be at least a specified distance from any opening through which vent gases can enter a

building.

 Venting must terminate beyond any combustible overhead and at a height sufficient to prevent blockage

by snow.

 Venting through a combustible wall requires an approved thimble.
 Vent should extend beyond wall surfaces to avoid splash-back condensation.
 Corrosion resistant materials should be employed for venting.

General Installation Notes

 Never connect venting to a chimney flue serving a separate solid-fuel burning appliance.
 Rigid, spiral wrap, corrosion resistant ducting is recommended to facilitate leak-proofing the system.

Venting runs over 25 ft (7.6 m) in length may need to be insulated.

 Always install venting with a down-slope of at least ¼” per 10 ft (7 mm per 3 m) towards the Vacuum

Pump location.

 Ensure that ducting is well suspended to avoid low spots where condensate can gather.
 Seal ALL joints using higher temperature Silicone Sealant. (RTV Silicone)

INSTALLATION - Part 3

Part 3 - Optional Combustion Air Supply

An air supply at atmospheric pressure of 40 CFM per 100,000 BTU/hr to each Burner and the end of each
Radiant Branch (at the End Vent Cap) is usually sufficient.

Under certain circumstances of very dirty or wet environments, or extremely negative building pressure, a
Combustion Air Supply System that is connected to the fresh air outside the building may be recommended.
The Combustion Air Supply System must be designed with accepted HVAC design methods to ensure adequate
supply of air to each Burner and Radiant Branch. This Combustion Air can be supplied using a Blower. Supply
at the Burner must be at atmospheric pressure therefore it may be necessary for the Installer to insert Damper
Couplings to allow adjustment of pressure just before the connection to each Burner and at the end of each
Branch. The Blower must be electrically interlocked with the Vacuum Pump, details can be found in
“Electrical Connections”.

A - Combustion Air Supply Duct Connections

1. Install Blower if required.

2. Install Combustion Air Supply ductwork and Damper Couplings as required.

3. Each Burner can be fitted with a 4” dia. fitting to accept 4” dia. Type C-Duct or 4” PVC pipe. Provision for

thermal expansion of the System must be made when considering Combustion Air Supply Ducting. Ensure
that the System movement / expansion does not restrict the supply of fresh air to the Burners or the Radiant
Branches. (Refer to Figure 37 for clearance requirements)

As required, connect the Supply Ductwork in the same manner as for the Burner. (Refer to Figure 37 for
details), DO NOT remove the End Vent Cap from the Radiant Branch to make this connection.

INSTALLATION – Part 4

Part 4 - Gas Supply System

General Requirements

Supply Lines

The Gas Supply Meter and the Supply Service must be sufficiently large to supply gas to the total building gas
load including the heating equipment. Additionally, the gas distribution piping must be designed according to
local and national ordinances. Generally, systems designed with a maximum ½” W.C. total pressure drop (low
pressure) meet this requirement.

Gas supply pipe sizing must be in accordance with the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1 (NFPA 54) in the
US and CAN/CGA B149.1 and B149.2 Installation Codes in Canada.

A 1/8” NPT plugged tap must be installed in the Gas Line connection immediately upstream of the Burner
farthest from the Gas Supply Meter to allow checking of system gas pressure.

A Gas Shut-off Valve must be installed parallel to EACH Burner Gas Inlet connection.

Before connecting Burners to the Gas Supply System, verify that high pressure testing of the Gas System
has been completed. Burners must be isolated from any pressure testing in excess of ½ psi (3.5 kPa).

Failure to comply may expose the Burner components to damaging high pressure, requiring replacement of key
components.

Flexible Gas Connector Lines

 Gas Flex Line Connector sizes for Burners with firing rates: (1 MBH = 1 000 BTU/hr)

o Below 150 MBH, requires ½” dia. x 36” (90 cm) long
o At 150 MBH or higher, requires ¾” dia. x 36” (90 cm) long

In Canada: Only use Type I Hose Connector that is (a) certified as being in compliance with the Standard for
Elastomeric Composite Hose and Hose Couplings for Conducting Propane and Natural Gas, CAN/CGA 8.1;
and (b) of a length of 36” ± 6” (90 ± 15 cm).

In the United States: The Flexible Metallic Connector Hose must be certified for use on a Radiant Tube type
Infrared Heater per the Standard for Connectors for Gas Appliances, ANSI Z21.24/CSA 6.10.

Failure to install the Gas Connection in the approved manner will result in a hazardous and potentially
deadly situation due to the movement of the heat exchanger and burner in the normal course of
operation.

Installation or repair of this heater should only be done by personnel qualified

for the installation of powered gas appliances.

(Certified by the local or national regulating body)

Premier VS Infrared Heating System Page 51 June 04, 2014

INSTALLATION - Part 4

COMMISSIONING

Part 1 - Installation Checklist

Before proceeding with the start-up of the system, review the list of items below to ensure proper operation.

 Close all open ended “S” hooks and turnbuckles to avoid unlocking chain with inadvertent contact

 Verify that the Burners are correct for the fuel being burned. The rating plate listing this information is

located on the Burner housing, check this against your site plans.

 Burners are position dependent. For proper operation, ensure that the Burner labeled as ‘No. 1’ on the

housing is located at the end of each Radiant Branch. Subsequent Burners in each Branch must be
positioned sequentially.

 Burners should be mounted with the Burner casting as far back in the Tube opening as possible. Ensure

that little or no Tube is in view thru the viewing window.

 Ensure that the End Vent Cap is oriented with the ¼” test hole at the 12 o’clock position and that it has

been secured to the end of each Branch with a #8 x 3/8” screw.

 If you have both hot rolled Tube (black & shiny) and heat-treated aluminized steel Tube (matte gray),

ensure that the heat-treated aluminized Tube is used in the Tailpipe section of the system, and used in the
10 ft (3 m) following all Burners with a rating of 150,000 BTU/HR or higher.

 Ensure that Tubes are fully inserted in the Couplings and tightened with band clamp hardware at the 10 or

2 o’clock position. Tighten band clamps alternately to prevent buckling of the Coupling sleeve.

 Ensure that each Branch has a Damper Coupling at the end of the Radiant length, as well as one at the

Vacuum Pump. If the system is symmetrical, one Damper along the Common Tailpipe may be used.
Single Rate Systems will use standard Manual Dampers while Modulating Rate Systems will use
Motorized Dampers.

 Ensure that Reflectors are properly overlapped and that every second overlap joint is screwed together, as

shown in Figure 9. The remaining joints are left loose. This will allow the Reflectors to ‘telescope’ with
the thermal expansion of the System.

 Visually confirm that the Vacuum Pump’s impeller rotates in the same direction indicated by the arrow on

the pump scroll. To reverse the rotation, see instructions on the motor.

 Ensure that EACH Flexible Gas Connector is of sufficient size for the desired Burner rate and is installed

in a smooth arc with no kinks. For Burners firing at 150,000 BTU/hr and higher ¾” dia. x 36” Gas Flex
Connector is required.

 Purge Gas Lines of all air.

 Verify the Wiring & that the Electrical Power Supply is connected but remains turned OFF.

Premier VS Infrared Heating System Page 63 June 04, 2014

COMMISSIONING

Part 2 - Initial System Power Test

With the individual gas valves to each burner ‘Shut off’ perform the following:

1. Ensure Gas Supply is turned OFF. (Open main gas valve and ensure that no gas is flowing through the gas

meter [dial test].)

2. Verify that lock-up gas pressure is not above 14 in. W.C.

3. Set all thermostats below room temperature and turn ON main power – no part of the System should be

energized.

4. Check each Radiant Branch in each Zone in sequence by turning up the appropriate Thermostat. In each

case the Vacuum Pump should turn on and after the pre-purge time, the Burners in that Zone should attempt
to light.

5. Troubleshoot as necessary to get the System operational. (See the Trouble-Shooting section of this manual

for more detailed information & helpful notes.)

Premier VS Infrared Heating System Page 64 June 04, 2014

COMMISSIONING

Part 3 - Balancing the System Vacuum

NOTE: The Premier VS burner is a variable rate appliance. Vacuum Pump setting must be accurately adjusted

to ensure Burners are operating at the specified design input.

1. Turn ON the Electrical Supply but NOT the Gas Supply (remains turned OFF).

2. Allow the system to run without Burners operating.

3. With a manometer check the vacuum at the End Vent Cap of the longest Branch. (Refer to Figure 48 for

manometer positioning details.)

4. Adjust the Damper that is installed in the Tailpipe of the same Branch to obtain the vacuum readings

according to Table E below. (In Systems that are “Symmetrical” there will be only one Damper along the
Common Tailpipe.) The setting maybe within +0.75 to +0.50 in. W.C. at this time. Mark the Damper
positions for future reference.

5. Proceed similarly until each individual branch in the system is balanced / adjusted.

6. Shut down the System.

7. Turn ON the Gas Supply.

8. Turn up the Thermostat(s) to start the System and let it run (with Burners operating) for at least 30 minutes.

9. With a manometer check the vacuum at the End Vent Cap of the longest Branch. (Refer to Figure 48 for

manometer positioning details.)

10. Adjust the Dampers again (Caution: dampers are now hot adjust with caution) as required to obtain the

vacuum readings within +0.1 to -0.2 in. W.C. of the settings in Table E. The Burners in this Branch should
now be firing at the appropriate rate.

11. Proceed similarly until each individual Branch in the System is balanced / re-adjusted.

12. Mark the Damper position and lock in place when the System has been balanced. (Lock in place by putting

a screw through the handle to hold it against the Sleeve / Tube.)

13. Turn the Thermostat(s) down again to shut off the System.

Note: An End Vent Vacuum which is intermediate to (between) those shown will result in rates intermediate

and proportional to those which are listed.

Note: Vacuum settings and rates apply regardless of the number of Burners being used in the System Branch.

Your System is now ready for use.

Manual Set-Up

1. Set the ambient temperature to be maintained at / by each Thermostat.

2. Ensure Electrical Power and Gas Supply are turned “ON”

Automatic Operating Sequence

Start-up

1. Thermostat calls for heat and energizes the transformer relay.

2. Transformer relay contacts close and the Vacuum Pump motor is energized.

OPERATION

3. If the Vacuum Switch finds no fault, power is supplied to all the Burners in the Zone(s) in which the

Thermostat(s) are calling for heat.

4. At the Burner, the control module waits for the pre-purge period and then opens the fuel valve and the spark

igniter is energized. Time delay in the control module causes the Burners to light sequentially.

5. When the flame is established, the flame sensor signal returns to the control module and the ignition spark

ceases.

6. If the flame is not established, the control module will re-try the ignition cycle again in 30 seconds.

7. Should ignition continue to fail, the control module will make 3 ignition attempts every hour.

8. If it does not, or if it continues to “not establish a flame”, Trouble-Shoot to find the cause.

9. System operates until Thermostat(s) temperature setting is reached.

Shut-down

1. When the Thermostat has been supplied sufficient heat, its contacts open and de-energize the transformer

relay.

2. The contacts of the transformer relay open and Electrical Power to the Burners and Vacuum Pump is

disconnected.

3. A post purge cycle can be provided when a Control Panel is supplied.

4. System remains ‘OFF’ until ambient temperature falls below the Thermostat(s) setting.

5. System cycles through Steps 1 to 10 on a continuous basis until Power is turned OFF.

Premier VS Infrared Heating System Page 67 June 04, 2014

MAINTENANCE & TROUBLE-SHOOTING

General Safety Reminders

 Ensure Gas Supply and Electrical Power are shut OFF before commencing maintenance work. Exception:

Checking ignitor flames will require the system to be operational.

 Keep area clear and free from combustible materials, gasoline and other flammable vapors and liquids.
 Caution: Label All Wires Prior To Disconnection When Servicing Controls. Wiring Errors can cause

improper and dangerous operation.

 Verify proper operation and set-up (as listed in the Commissioning section) after servicing.

Annual Maintenance Recommendations

Annual maintenance, prior to the heating season (Fall / Winter) is recommended.

Part 1: Each Burner

1. Remove Burner and inspect burner face for soot or cracks.

2. Visually inspect electrode. Replace if there is excessive oxidation, erosion or cracks in the ceramic

insulators. Set spark gap at 0.125” (3.175 mm) and clean the electrodes.

3. Verify that flame observation glass is clean, free of cracks and airtight.

4. Inspect air filter. Change as necessary.

5. Observe each flame through the flame sight glass.

6. Flame may flutter once or twice at ignition but should settle promptly.

7. Flame should extend straight out from Ignitor

8. Sense rod (and ignitor) will glow bright red-orange on all except No.1 Burners.

Note: Dirty air filters will restrict combustion air flow into the burner housing, creating a slight

negative pressure environment for the zero governor (and other controls). Consequently, while flame
characteristics and balance will not change appreciably, overall burner rate will decline. Very dirty
filters will cause the flame to become more rich (yellow and soft). Filters can be cleaned once with

reverse air pressure, but it is generally more cost effective to merely replace them.
For VS Air Filter includes frame (Bulk Qty. 20) use part No. VH001B
For VS Filter Media Kits (Bulk Qty 24) use part No. VH053B

(Overall System maintenance requirements are found on the next page.)

Premier VS Infrared Heating System Page 68 June 04, 2014

MAINTENANCE & TROUBLE-SHOOTING

Part 2: The Vacuum Settings

1. If the Vacuum is too low, inspect the Flexible Boot Connectors on the Inlet and Outlet of the Vacuum Pump

if the Vacuum for tight connections, leaks, damage, kinks, etc.

Part 3: The System

1. Inspect the Common Tailpipe and Vent Pipe for soot or dirt, clean as required to avoid obstructions.

2. Check that Flexible Boot Connectors are without cracks, kinks or leaking connections.

3. Ensure that the Vacuum Pump and motor mounting bolts are tight.

4. Make a visual inspection (without dismounting) of the Vacuum Pump impeller.

5. Clean the Condensate Trap and ensure that all piping to / from the Condensate Trap allows free flow of

fluid.

6. There should be no sound of leaking air around any of the various gaskets or connections.

7. Make spot checks of the interior of the Radiant Line Tubes for soot or obstructions, clean as required.
