DESCRIPTION

The SS1-R is a mechanical vent system designed and listed for use with specified Rheem, Ruud, Weatherking and Heat Controller oil fired furnaces. The SS1-R automatically vents the flue gases away from the oil furnace to the outdoors. By combining outside air with high-tech insulation and maintaining required clearances, surrounding combustible materials remain at safe temperatures. A factory post-purge time is set at 2 minutes and is adjustable up to 16 minutes, see “Pre / Post-purge Settings” on page 4. The SS1-R features a safety system consisting of the integral UC1 Universal Control, a Fan Proving Switch and a High Limit temperature control. These devices monitor the SS1-R’s performance and will interrupt the main burner if a venting malfunction is detected.

2. A barometric draft control must be used with the SS1-R.

3. Do not use single wall vent pipe in unconditioned or unheated spaces.

4. The SS1-R shall not be installed where flue gas temperatures exceed 575oF at its inlet. Flue gas temperature verification:

Measure temperature of flue gases at the inlet to the SS1-R at time of installation. Measure the temperature after the appliance and SS1-R operate for at least 15 minutes, allowing flue gas temperature to stabilize.

CAUTIONS

Disconnect power supply from the oil furnace when making wiring connections and servicing the SS1-R. Failure to do so may result in personal injury and/or equipment damage.

1. The SS1-R must be installed by a qualified installer (an individual properly licensed and/or trained) in accordance with all local codes. In the absence of local codes, USA installations should be in accordance with the latest editions of the applicable National Fire Protection Agency (NFPA) code. These are NFPA 31 (Installation of Oil-Burning Equipment), and NFPA 211 (Chimneys, Fireplaces, Vents and Solid Fuel burning Appliances). In addition, USA installations must comply with the National Electrical Code. In the absence of local codes in Canada, installations must comply with CSA Std 139 (The National Building Code of Canada) and CSA Std 22.1 (The Canadian Electrical Code).

2. Plan the vent layout so that the code required clearances are maintained from plumbing, wiring and combustible materials.

3. The SS1-R motor shaft must be mounted horizontally to ensure proper operation of the Fan Proving Switch and prevent motor bearing wear.

4. Flue gas temperatures must not exceed 575oF at SS1-R inlet. Ambient temperature must not exceed 104oF.

5. Make certain the power source is adequate for the SS1-R requirements. Do not add the SS1-R to a circuit where the total electrical load is unknown.

6. "Safety Inspection of a Previously installed Appliance" must be completed when replacing a conventional chimney venting system or when SS1-R is installed on Rheem, Ruud, Weatherking or Heat Controller oil fired furnaces.

7. The SS1-R vent system, including vent pipe, must be inspected annually by a qualified individual.

*SAFETY INSPECTION OF A PREVIOUSLY INSTALLED OIL APPLIANCE

(Perform prior to SS1-R installation)

The following procedure is intended as a guide to aid in determining that an appliance is properly installed and is in safe condition for continuing use.

This procedure is based on central furnace installations and it should be recognized that generalized procedures cannot anticipate all situations. Accordingly, in some cases deviation from this procedure may be necessary to determine safe operation of the equipment.

a. Install the SS1-R only on specified Rheem, Ruud, Weatherking & Heat Controller oil fired furnaces.

b. Complete this procedure prior to any attempt at modifications of the appliance or installation of the SS1-R.

c. If there is a condition which could result in unsafe operation, shut off the appliance and advise the owner

of the unsafe condition.

Improper installation, adjustment, alterations, service or maintenance can cause injury, property damage or death. Refer to this manual. For assistance or additional information consult a qualified installer, service agency or the equipment supplier.

Do not exceed the recommended input range of the SS1-R. Under no circumstances shall the minimum draft adjustment be used for the larger input range of this product. Improper adjustment may result in the dispersion of flue products (carbon monoxide) into the building interior causing carbon monoxide poisoning or death.

If oil nozzle is changed or other equipment is added perform “Draft Adjustment Procedure” on page 14 again.

The following steps should be followed in making the safety inspection:

1. Visually inspect the venting system and determine there is no blockage or restriction, leakage, corrosion or other deficiencies which could cause an unsafe condition.

2. Inspect burner and primary control for proper operation.

3. Inspect heat exchanger for cracks, openings or excessive corrosion. Check both the limit control and fan control for proper operation.

SS1-R TERMINOLOGY

LED STATUS & FAULT INDICATORS

LED INDICATOR LIGHTS

LED #1 (Amber) Appliance call for heat. LED #2 (Green) Safety circuit through P1 & P2 (SS1-R Limit & Fan Prover) is verified “Open” upon start-up. Indicates Venter

prover is closed during run cycle. Solenoid valve is energized with contact closure from terminal 3 to 4. LED #3 (Green) Power switched to SS1-R motor & burner motor from L to MTR & M. LED #4 (Red) Status / Fault indicator. LED #5 (Red) 115 VAC power supplied to board. Also used as a status indicator.

LED STATUS INDICATORS

LED #4 & #5 (Red) Flashing Alternately = Venter in Pre-purge. (Pre-Purge options 0, 5, 20, 35 seconds)

LED #4 & #5 (Red) Flashing in Unison = Venter in Post-Purge. (Post-Purge options 0, 30 seconds or 1, 2, 4, 8, 16 minutes)

LED #4 Flashing Continuously* = Fan Prover opened for more than 10 seconds during burner cycle.

(Venter will run for 10 minutes, attempting to make Fan Prover)

LED FAULT INDICATORS

Fault conditions are indicated by counting the number of times LED #4 (Red) flashes. LED #4 Flashes 2 Times Fan Prover was in electrically closed position prior to venter operation. LED #4 Flashes 3 Times* Fan Prover does not close within 60 seconds after call for heat. LED #4 Flashes 4 Times* Fan Prover did not re-close after 10 minutes of Venter operation. LED #4 Flashes 5 Times* Fan Prover opened for more than 10 seconds during burner cycle but closed within 10 minutes.

* Investigate causes of Fan Prover not making, i.e; Firing burner at capacities or temperatures exceeding Venter limits, excessive

vent pipe runs, high winds, plugged / kinked Fan Prover sensing tube or a faulty Fan Prover. Reset SS1-R High Limit. If Limit was tripped and SS1-R fires, investigate cause of high heat.

tripped and SS1-R fires, investigate cause of high heat.

CHECKING MEMORY FOR LAST FAULT CODE

IMPORTANT: Prior to accessing the fault code memory, note the settings of the dip switches so that they can be returned to their

original Pre / Post-Purge positions. When power is supplied to the UC1 use caution when moving dip switches.

The last fault code can be retrieved at any time by setting all dip switches 1-8 to the up, or “on” position. The last fault code, or lack there of, will be indicated by counting the number of times LED #4 flashes. By moving any of the dip switches back to their original position, the fault code will be cleared. NOTE: The UC1 board must have its 115 VAC power supply present when any of the (1-8) dip switches are moved back to their original position for the fault code to clear.

IMPORTANT: Fault codes will automatically be displayed after a fault condition occurs. If the call for heat interlock signal or 115 VAC power is removed, the UC1 board will reset and the fault will be stored in memory instead of displayed. Any new fault will replace any previous fault.

SS1-R WITH INTEGRAL UC1 UNIVERSAL CONTROL BOARD FEATURES

# 1. Power supplied by board. Do not supply power to this area or control damage may result. # 2. Do not supply power to the appliance interlock block with the call selector in the “DRY” position.

Control damage may result if power is supplied.

# 3. Circuit protection must be provided by the installer. 16 Amps is the maximum current allowed for this device at terminal L.

A 15 Amp circuit breaker is recommended.

VETI

PRE / POST PURGE AND PROVER STATUS CHECK DIP SWITCH SETTINGS

Remove power to SS1-R and heating equipment when installing, servicing or changing dip switch settings. Failure to do so may result in personal injury and/or equipment damage. LED #5 (RED) should not be on if 115 VAC supply power is removed from the control.

Pre-purge

Used for longer vent runs to get draft fully established throughout the vent system prior to burner ignition. Also beneficial for negative pressure prone environments. IMPORTANT: Nuisance equipment lockouts may occur if our pre-purge is running in conjunction with and is longer than any equipment timing circuit. Pre-purge settings must be shorter than burner control lockout time unless wired prior to burner control timing circuit (i.e. aquastat / thermostat).

Post-purge

A Venter post-purge has been factory set at 2 minutes. Confirm that dip switch #5 is in the up or "on" position. Oil fired equipment requires that the post-purge be long enough to eliminate post cycle nozzle drip odor. A longer post-purge may be necessary for longer vent runs or high heat retention, refractory lined combustion chambers.
