SECTION 1: AIR HANDLER S AFETY
hazardous if containing flammable solids, liquids, and gases; explosive materials; and/or substances which may become toxic when exposed to heat (i.e. refrigerants, aerosols, etc.).

1.1 Description of Operation

This air handler is a direct, gas-fired, fresh-air piece of equipment. It is designed for indoor or outdoor installation with fresh outdoor air delivered to the burner. Air handlers are designed to operate in temperatures as low as -30° F (-34° C). The air handler is factory-tested to fire with natural gas or LPG (check the air handler's rating plate for information on the appropriate gas). The burner flame will modulate to maintain the selected discharge air temperature or room air temperature, depending on the selected controls. See Page 49,
Section 17.2. For maximum temperature rise, See Page 66, Table 18.
The air handler may be provided with several different controls and options to meet various application requirements. Be sure to read this entire manual before installation and start-u
p.

1.2 Inspection and Setup

The air handler is shipped fully assembled. The air handler was inspected and operated prior to shipment. Immediately upon receipt of the air handler, check the fuel and electrical characteristics of the air handler and verify that they match the fuel and electrical supply available. Verify that the specifications on the air handler rating plate match the order. Check the air handler for any damage that may have occurred during shipment. If any damage is found, file a claim with the transporting agency. Do not refuse shipment. Check the installation location to ensure proper clearances to combustibles. See Page 5, Section 3.1.
Any small options which do not come attached to the air handler (i.e. remote panel) will be found inside the air handler.
Larger accessories (i.e. legs, stand, filter section, inlet hood) may either ship with the air handler or separately. Check the bill of lading for information.
If the air handler must be temporarily stored (i.e. job site is not ready for installation of the air handler), the air handler should be set on 4" x 4" (10 cm x 10 cm) pieces of timber on the ground in a protected area. Cover the air handler to protect it from the environment. Weather-Rite LLC will not be held responsible for any damages that may occur from outdoor storage.

SECTION 2: INSTALLER RESPONSIBILITY

The installer is responsible for the following:
• To install and commission the air handler, as well as the gas and electrical supplies, in accordance with applicable specifications and codes. Weather-Rite LLC recommends the installer contact a local building inspector or Fire Marshal for guidance.
•To use the information given in a layout drawing and in the manual together with the cited codes and regulations to perform the installation.
• To install the heater in accordance with the clearances to combustibles.
•To furnish all needed materials not furnished as standard equipment.
• To plan location of supports.
• To provide access to
air handler
for servicing.
• To provide the owner with a copy of this Installation, Operation and Service Manual.
• To never use heater as support for a ladder or other access equipment and never hang or suspend anything from heater.
•To ensure there is adequate air circulation around the air handler and to supply air for combustion, ventilation and distribution in accordance with local codes.
• To assemble or install any accessories or associated duct work using best building practices.
• To properly size supports and hanging materials.
• To ensure heater is placed in an approved application.

2.1 Wall Tag

A laminated wall tag is available for the heater as a permanent reminder of the safety instructions and the importance of the required clearances to combustibles. Please contact Weather-Rite LLC or
your WEATHER-RITE
independent distributor to obtain the wall tag. Affix the tag on a wall near the heater (e.g. thermostat or control system).
A copy of the wall tag (P/N 91040118) is illustrated on the back cover. For an immediate solution, you may affix this copy on the wall near the heater.
Know your model number and installed configuration. Model number and installed configuration are found on the rating plate and in the Installation, Operation and Service Manual.

2.2 Corrosive Chemicals

Weather-Rite LLC cannot be responsible for ensuring that all appropriate safety measures are undertaken prior to installation; this is entirely the responsibility of the installer. It is essential that the contractor, the sub-contractor, or the owner identifies the presence of combustible materials, corrosive chemicals or halogenated hydrocarbons* anywhere in the premises.
* Halogenated Hydrocarbons are a family of chemical compounds characterized by the presence of halogen elements (fluorine, chlorine, bromine, etc.). These compounds are frequently used in refrigerants, cleaning agents, solvents, etc. If these compounds enter the air supply of the burner, the life span of the air handler components will be greatly reduced. The loca­tion of the outside air supply must be carefully chosen to supply outside air, free of these compounds, to the burners whenever the presence of these compounds is suspect. Warranty will be invalid if the air handler is exposed to halogenated hydrocar­bons.

SECTION 6: LIFTING AN AIR HANDLER

The air handler must be installed in compliance with all applicable codes. The qualified installer or service technician must use best building practices when installing the air handler and any optional equipment. This piece of equipment requires at least 4 CFM (6.8
3
m
/h) of outside air per 1,000 Btu/h (0.293 kW). Any air handler that recirculates air from the heated space must use the return air opening to prevent any return air from passing over the burner.
Before installation, check that the local distribution condition, nature of gas and gas pressure, and the current state of adjustment of the equipment are compatible. If filters are not installed (via inlet hood or filter section), an air strainer (provided by others) must be installed on the inlet of the air handler with openings less than or equal to 5/8" (16 mm) in diameter. Air inlets must be installed in such a manner that their lowest edge is 19" (500 mm) above any surface. This applies to roof curbs, upright stands and suspended air handlers.

6.1 Lifting an Air Handler

6.1.1 Preparing to Lift the Air Handler

Prior to lifting the air handler, the following steps must be performed:

1. R e m o ve all packaging or banding that attached the air handler to the skid and ensure that the air handler is no longer bound to the skid.

2. Remove all of the accessories or packages that were shipped on the same skid, inside the air handler or inside the control enclosu

3. Inspect the air handler to:

Verify that there is no damage as a result of
shipping.
•Ensure that it is appropriately rated for the
utilities available at the installation site.
Verify that the lifting lugs are intact undamaged and secured to the air handler.
•Ensure factory-installed hardware is torqued as specified.

4. Prepare the installation location to be ready to accept the air handler (i.e. roof curb, mounting stand or legs).

5. Verify the lifting equipment can handle the air handlers weight and the required reach. See Page 8, Table 2.

6.1.2 Lifting a Horizontal Air Handler (All Models)

Lift the air handler into place installing appropriate hardware (supplied by others) into all lifting lug holes on the unit base. For model XT-112, lifting lug holes are 1.5" (3.81 cm) diameter. For models XT-115 - XT­130, lifting lug holes are 2.0" (5.1 cm) diameter. Use spreader bars to ensure that the lifting cables clear the sides of the air handler. The air handler must be kept level during the lift to prevent tipping, twisting or falling. If lifted improperly, product damage may occur.
Next, refer to the applicable portions of Section 7, See Pages 12 - 14 for specific mounting instructions. For mounting of accessories, refer to the applicable portions of Page 21, Section 10.1 through Page 32, Section 13.

7.2 Air Handler Mounting to Roof Curb

After the curb has been installed, the air handler may be placed on the curb. See Page 14, Figure 4. After the air handler is in place, the installer must fasten the air handler to the curb. This is accomplished by drilling holes down through the floor of the air handler and into the curb. At least three #12 sheet metal screws (supplied by others) equally spaced on each side must be used to attach the air handler to the curb. After the curb has been installed, the air handler may be placed on the curb. There must be a 1/8" (.3 cm) x 2" (5.1 cm) neoprene closed cell, adhesive-back gasket (supplied by others) between the top of the curb and the base surface of the air handler to prevent moisture from leaking into the building from either driving rains or melting snow. The installer is responsible for tying the air handler to the curb per all applicable codes.

13.2 Splash Plate Installation

The splash plate is designed to hang directly from a horizontal air handler with a bottom discharge. Before the splash plate can be installed on the air handler, first drill four holes in the air handler floor. These holes to be centered over the entire blower discharge opening. These holes should be approximately 5/8" (15.9 mm) in diameter to accommodate 1/2" hanger rods (supplied by others). These holes should be located as shown in the diagram on Page 34, Figure 17.
To attach all of the hanger rods to the splash plate, start by threading a flanged nut onto each hanger rod. Then, slip each hanger rod down through a hole located in each corner of the splash plate. Next, feed a flanged nut onto the rod below the splash plate See Page 33, Figure 16. The hanger rods should be attached to the air handler in the same manner as the splash plate, with a flanged nut on both sides of the air handler floor. Adjusting the nuts will level the splash plate. Torque hardware after leveling.

Cut/Pinch Hazard
Wear protective gear during installation, operation and service.
Edges are sharp.
Falling Hazard
Use proper safety equipment and prac­tices to avoid falling.
WARNING
Failure to follow these instructions can result
in death, injury or property damage.

SECTION 14: DUCT CONSIDERATIONS

The air handler has been designed to operate at the specific air volume and external static pressure that was ordered (air handlers set-up to accept an external static pressure (ESP) of 1 in wc (2.5 mbar). This static pressure is generated by any additional components that are added to the heater (i.e. inlet hood, filter section, dampers, ductwork, discharge heads, etc). Additional static pressure beyond that ordered will affect the performance of the air handler and lessen the air volume that can be delivered.
Proper engineering methods need to be employed when calculating duct and component static pressure (i.e. 2009 ASHRAE Handbook - Fundamentals, Chapter 21). Accessory pressure drops are available on See Page 9, Table 4 and Table 5.
The system ductwork must comply with Sheet Metal and Air Conditioning Contractors Nationals Association (SMACNA) or any other recognized standards.
As a general rule, all discharge ducts should have a straight run of at least 3 hydraulic duct diameters after the air handler before adding any fittings, elbows, restrictions, etc. Return ducts should have the same straight r
Hydraulic duct diameter for round ducts in inches:
Dh = d
Dh: hydraulic diameter d: round duct inside diameter Hydraulic duct diameter for rectangular ducts (in
inches):
Dh = (2*H*W)/(H+W)
un before attaching to the unit.
Dh: hydraulic diameter H: rectangular duct inside height W: rectangular duct inside width
The air handler is not designed to support the weight of ductwork. Ductwork must be constructed in a fashion that is self-supporting. Ductwork should be straight, elbows should be minimal and any transitions should be smooth.
Depending on the options ordered with the air handler, flanges (either external or internal) may be provided to facilitate connection of ductwork. In cases where flanges are not provided, flat surfaces on the exterior skin of the air handler are pro facilitate connection of ductwork.

14.1 Inlet Duct Work

Inlet duct work height and width must be no smaller than the air handler inlet height and width and supply only fresh air to the air handler.

14.2 Return Duct Work

Return duct work height and width must be no smaller than the air handler inlet height and width and supply only fresh air to the air handler.

14.3 Discharge Duct Work

Discharge duct work height and width must be no smaller than the air handler discharge height and
width.

16.6.1 Manual Reset High Temperature Limit Switch

If for any reason, the temperature of the air at the discharge of the blower reaches the limit set point of 160° F (71.1° C), the high temperature limit switch will open the circuit to the burner system and discontinue all burner functions. Events that could result in excessive discharge air temperatures include if the burner modulation amplifier is defective (i.e. temperature sensor goes open circu
it) or if a surge in gas pressure reaches the burner. Restarting of the burner can only be accomplished after the limit has cooled down and the reset button on the switch has been depressed. This switch is located on the blower housing inside the air handler.

16.6.3 Gas Pressure Switches

Gas pressure switches are standard on certain models (FM compliant gas trains above 2,500 MBH and XL compliant gas trains) and are also available as an option on the others.
The function of the gas pressure switches is to protect against insufficient, lack of gas pressure and excessive pressure in the system.
On the low gas pressure switch side, this switch opens its internal switch which shuts the burner down and prevents its operation due to insufficient gas pressure.
On the high gas pressure switch side, its internal

16.6.2 Pressure Switches

The low airflow velocity pressure switch monitors the airflow (differential pressure) across the burner. When the airflow across the burner reaches the proper velocity (volume) for combustion, the switch closes. When the switch closes, it permits the flame safeguard relay to begin ignition. This switch is factory set at 0.32 in wc (0.8 mbar). The high velocity pressure switch will open if the airflow across the burner reaches its maximum allowable limit. This switch is factory set at 1.40 in wc (3.5 mbar). The pressure switch is a safety de
vice, which cannot be
field-adjusted or tampered with.
switch will open, shutting down the burner due to excessive gas pressure passing through the gas train.
The settings of the gas pressure switches are field adj
ustable. The one monitoring the incoming gas pressure is the low gas pressure switch. The low gas pressure switch must be set to the minimum required gas pressure as indicated on the data plate.
The high gas pressure switch must be set to 1 in w.c. (2.5 mbar) above high fire setting established during commissioning.
The switch will have to be reset manually, once the condition has been corrected.

16.6.4 Flame Control

This device will check for both pilot flame and main flame within the burner. When a flame signal from the pilot flame is available, it will allow the main gas valve to open.
All models use a flame rod to detect the flame (between 6 to 8 Vdc).
If a pilot flame is not present, the electrical signal cannot be sent and the pilot burner gas valve will close. The relay is equipped with a 10-second trial for ignition. If ignition does not occur, the flame safeguard relay will lockout, it will reset upon power restoration. (See the Trouble-Shooting Guide - Page 79, Section 23)

FIGURE 24: Interconect Wiring 1

16.6.5 Discharge Temperature Sensor

This device senses the discharge temperature of the air at the blower. The discharge temperature sensor reports the discharge temperature to the temperature control amplifier which modulates the burner to the temperature set on the remote panel selector. Should this system fail, the manu
al high temperature limit switch will turn the burner off. BMS-ready air handlers do not come equipped with this sensor and must be field-supplied.

16.6.6 Positive Low Fire Start

This feature forces the burner to start in low fire rather than high fire during the air handler’s start-up sequence of operations. The burner maintains its low fire setting for 10 seconds (as per timer setpoint) before it begins to modulate.

16.7 Interlocks

16.7.1 Carbon Dioxide Interlocks

All air handlers that recirculate air from the heated space require either a control to limit the temperature rise in proportion to the amount of outdoor air or the use of a room carbon dioxide sensor. The carbon dioxide sensor is field provided and set to maintain a CO2 concentration below 5,000 ppm.

16.7.2 Carbon Monoxide Interlocks

Carbon Monoxide Detector is a ship loose sensor that monitors the CO levels in the space. It can either sound an alarm and/ or force the air handler into 100% outside air if its threshold set point is exceeded.

16.8 Control Options

16.8.1 Mild Weather Outside Air Stat

This option is designed to turn the burner off when the incoming outside air is at or above the temperature setpoint. The blower is allowed to run for continued ventilation. The mild weather outside air stat is located in the control enclosure. It has an adjustable setting between -20° F (-29° C) and 100° F (38° C).

16.8.2 Low Temperature Limit with Override Timer

This option is designed to turn the unit off when air is discharged below the temperature setpoint for a period in excess of timer setpoint. The low temperatu
re limit switch is located in the air handler’s control enclosure. The low temperature limit switch has an adjustable setting between -20° F (-29° C) and 100° F (38° C). The timer by-passes the low temperature limit switch for the first 5 minutes to allow the burner to establish a flame when the air handler is turned on. If the air handler’s discharge temperature falls to the predetermined low temperature limit setpoint, after the 5 minute establishing period, the air handler’s blower will be turned off. To reset the low temperature limit switch, set the fan switch to off and then on again. The air handler will return to the normal sequence of operations.

16.8.3 MUA / Exhaust Failsafe Interlock

This option incorporates the low temperature limit with override timer and an exhaust fan airflow switch
monitor. The exhaust fan airflow switch is field provided and field w
ired as per the option sheet supplied with the unit. When the air handler is turned on there is a 5 minute establishing period for the low temperature limit switch and the exhaust fan interlock. If the air handler’s discharge temperature falls to the predetermined low temperature limit
setpoint, after the 5 minute establishing period, the air handler fan will be turned off. If there is a failure of the exhaust fan to activate the field supplied airflow switch, after the 5 minute establishing period, the air handler fan will be turned off. To reset the MUA/exhaust failsafe interlock, set the fan switch to off and then on again. The air handler will return to the normal sequence of operations.

16.8.4 Motorized Inlet Damper

The motorized inlet damper covers the outside air inlet of the air handler. When the air handler blower is turned on, the damper motor is energized and opens the damper. The damper motor has an auxiliary switch that prevents the blower from starting until that damper has opened sufficiently to allo
w the required
air volume to pass through the air handler.

16.8.5 Motorized Discharge Damper

The motorized discharge damper is mounted in the duct downstream from the discharge opening of the air handler. When the air handler fan is turned on the damper motor is energized and opens the damper. The damper motor has an auxiliary switch that prevents the blower from starting until that damper has opened sufficiently to allow the required air volume to pass through the air handler.

16.8.6 Control Enclosure Heater

The control enclosure heater is an electric heater that keeps the temperature in the control enclosure within the range for the control components. This option is intended for extremely cold climates, but recommended for installations below 15° F (-9° C). The air handler controls are rated to perform at temperatures as low as -30° F (-34° C). In environments where the air handler may be exposed to lower temperatures, a control enclosure heater may be required.

16.8.7 Auxiliary Relay

An auxiliary relay may be added to an air handler for either an interlock or a customer defined pu
rpose. Refer to the option sheet supplied with the air handler to indicate whether the relay is wired for an intended purpose or left unwired for a future interface. Each relay will be double pole double throw (DPDT) type. Maximum switching capacity on the normally open contact is 8A, and for the booth light relay, 15A.

16.8.8 Smoke Detector

A smoke detector interlock allows for the air handler to operate (either off or on) based on signal input from the fire alarm.

16.8.9 Single Point Connection

When a variable frequency drive or auxiliary motor starter (both used for controlling an exhaust fan) or an enclosure heater or ground fault interrupt (GFI) receptacle are ordered, the installer/service technician must bring in separate power wires and fused disconnect (provided by others) to power these options. The single point connection allows the installer/service technician to bring only one set of power wires into the air handler. Additional fusing is also provided to protect the variable frequency drive, enclosure heater, and/or GFI.

16.8.10 Service Receptacle Powered by Others (Wired)

This option provides a service receptacle. It includes ground-fault interrupter (GFI) receptacle mounted on the interior or exterior of the control enclosure. Power to the receptacle is supplied by the installer.

SECTION 17: SEQUENCE OF OPERATION

17.1 Air Handler Configuration

Based on the air handler application, the air handler may be configured in any of the four styles described in the upcoming sections. These configurations are available on all air handlers, except the XT-112 which is only available in the MUA style. For a comparison of these configurations, See Page 48, Table 11 and Page 48, Figure 26.

17.1.1 Make-Up Air (MUA) Style

The MUA style air handler has a constant speed blower that is designed to deliver a constant volume of air to the heated space. This style air handler supplies 100% outside air to the heated space and is not capable of supplying return air.

17.1.2 Fixed Recirculation (FR) Style

The FR style air handler has a constant speed blower that is designed to deliver a constant volume of air to the heated space. In all cases, however, the air being delivered directly over the burner for combustion must always be 100% outside air. The air handler delivers 20% outside air and 80% of return air. The outside air is heated then mixed with the return air prior to being deliv space.

17.1.3 Air Management (AM) Style

The AM style air handler has a constant speed blower that is designed to deliver a constant volume of air to the heated space. A building pressure sensor is used to detect the differential pressure between the outside and the heated space. The total volume of air delivered by the air handler may at times consist of 0% to 80% return air. An automatic control is provided for the outdoor air and return air dampers. A null pressure switch is used to sense a positive space pressure (room or duct). This null pressure switch is mounted in the control enclosure. More or less outdoor air is brought into the space to satisfy the pressure setpoint. Most installations require a setpoint of 0.02 in wc to 0.03 in wc to achieve adequate pressure control in the building space. 5/ 16" diameter tubing connected to the positive pressure port of the switch must run to the inside of the building. 5/16" diameter tubing connected to the negative pressure port of the switch must run to the outside of the building.

17.1.4 Variable Air Volume (VAV) Style

The VAV style air handler uses a building pressure sensor to detect differential pressure between the outside and the heated space. The air handler will deliver 100% outside air and will not deliver return air. The air handler will ensure proper air velocity over the burner by using a photohelic air sensor to measure the pressure drop across the burner and by using a damper to modify the airflow when a pressure change is required. A second photohelic air pressure sensor is used to measu pressure between the outside and the heated space. Most installations require a setpoint of 0.02 in wc to
0.03 in wc to achieve adequate pressure control in the building. The second pressure sensor is used to provide a control signal to the variable frequency drive that, in turn, controls the blower speed. 5/16" diameter tubing connected to the positive pressure port of the pressure sensor must run to the inside of the building. 5/16" diameter tubing connected to the negative pressure port of the pressure sensor must run to the outside of the building.

17.2 HVAC Remote Panels and Panel Options

The remote panel should be mounted in the conditioned space in a convenient location for controlling the air handler. Do not locate a remote panel that contains temperature sensing equipment in an area directly affected by the air handler or another heat source as it may interfere with the operation of the air handler.

17.2.1 Standard Discharge Control (SDC) Remote

ON/SUMMER Mode:
Only the blower operates continuously to provide unheated air. The burner remains off regardless of temperatures on the temperature selection dial and thermostat.

17.2.3 BMS-Ready Control Option

The BMS-ready option provides inputs to receive control signals from a customer determined control system. Each BMS input is capable of receiving a 4-20mA or 0 - 10VDC from the control system. On all air handlers, the burner modulation will be controlled by the control system. For AM/VAV style air handlers, the control system can also control the modulating damper.
On DDC/BMS-ready systems, no temperature control amplifier is installed. Discharge temperature monitoring and modulation valve adjustment are completed by the customer supplied control system. For optimum efficiency, Weather-Rite LLC suggests to limit the discharge temperature to 160 °F.

17.3 Basic Air Handler Sequence of Operation

While the control transformer is energized, the secondary side supplies 115 VAC to the control circuit. When the fan switch is in the "on" position, the M1 motor starter is energized and starts the blower motor. The M1 motor starter auxiliary contact supplies voltage to the burner switch and "Fan On" light. When the burner switch is in the "on"/"winter" position, power is supplied to the flame control modu
le and the burner control circuit. The burner control circuit includes the high temperature limit switch and the low and high airflow pressure switches. Once the burner control circuit is satisfied, then the flame control module will execute the burner ignition sequence. Once the pilot flame is ignited and sensed by the UV scanner, the flame control module will open the safety shutoff valve to ignite the main flame. When the safety shutoff is opened, 115 VAC is applied to the "Burner On" light and T3 transformer, the secondary side supplies 24 VAC to the temperature control amplifier. The temperature control amplifier controls the modulating valve based on the discharge temperature monitor (and also the room temperature monitor, in the case of a DTC remote panel).

17.3.1 Flame Control

The flame control is a safety device and not serviceable. See Pages 51 through 53 for detailed sequence of operation.

M4RT1 Flame Safeguard Opera-
tion (ANSI, FM < 2.5MBH and XL < 1MBH)
The following will describe the internal operation of a flame safeguard and the external functions that will take place. We will just trace the electromechanical steps and not the electronic network.
• All interlocks, control relays and safety limits are closed. Power is supplied to terminal #7 of the flame safeguard.
• The Operating Control LED illuminates.
• The electronic network is now powered up which illuminates the Air Flow LED.
NOTE: The airflow circuit of the safeguard control is not used and is jumped. This is why the Air Flow LED illuminates with the Operating Control LED.
• Following a short time delay period (purge cycle) determined by the jumpers,
and Page 53, Table 13
28
See Page 53, Figure
. The electronic network closes a contact that powers up terminal #3 and terminal #4 in the safeguard control.
• Terminal #3 powers up the equipment's pilot gas solenoid valve which opens allowing gas to flow.
• Terminal #4 powers up the ignition module creating the spark at the burner.
• This lasts for 10 seconds. This cycle is called trial for ignition. During this time period, the PTFI LED is illuminated.
• When the flame sensor detects a pilot flame, the signal is sent back to the safeguard control. The electronic network illuminates the FLAME LED.
• It closes a contact, which powers up terminal #5 in the control. This terminal powers up the main gas valves allowing the main burner to come on.
• At the same time the electronic network opens a contact which removes power from terminal #4. This shuts off the power to the ignition module, which stops the spark at the burner. The safeguard control at this point monitors the flame.
NOTE: If a pilot flame is not detected during the 10 second trial for ignition, the pilot gas solenoid valve and the ignition module are turned off. A safety lockout occurs which shuts down the electronic network. The only LED that will be illuminated at this time will be the OPERATING CONTROL. 30 seconds after the lockout occurs, the alarm circuit is powered up, illuminating the ALARM LED. Manual reset is now required. Wait 10 seconds before resetting the control to allow the lockout switch to cool down.
NOTE: If the flame signal is lost while the burner is on, the ignition module will be turned back on. A 10­second re-light trial for ignition is started. The PTFI LED will illuminate during this time.If a flame signal is detected, the main gas valves will turn back on and the ignition module will turn off. If a flame is not detected during this re-light trial, the pilot gas solenoid valve and ignition module will shut off. A safety lockout occurs which shuts down the electronic network. The only LED that will be illuminated at this time will be the OPERATING CONTROL. Thirty seconds after the alarm lockout happens the alarm circuit is powered up, illuminating the ALARM LED. Manual reset is now required. Wait 10 seconds before resetting the control to allow the lockout switch to cool down.

the system. The trial for ignition must be delayed by 7 seconds while the blower in the unit is running. This is to guarantee that there are no combustible gases or vapors present in the air stream during burner ignition and light off.
2. Trial for ignition
The length of time must be fixed at 10 seconds. This is to prevent the ignition module from con- tinuing activating the spark electrode if a haz­ardous malfunction takes place.
3. Non recycle
This feature prevents the flame safeguard con­trol from trying to re-light the burner if it should fail during the ignition cycle or firing cycle. Instead it goes directly to a lockout condition and the flame safeguard will need to be manu- ally reset.

18.2 Direct Fired Burner Flame Proving (Flame Rod)

The flame rod in the burner is constructed of a material that produces a signal when heated. This signal is measured as a direct current micro amp. The path of the signal is from the flame rod to the burner. From the burner, which is mechanically grounded to the unit casing, the signal continues to the grounded side of the flame rectification module in the flame safeguard control. The signal continues out of the module to the flame rod where it completes the loop. The length the flame rod extends into the burner is determined by, the insulator surrounding the rod. This insulator must not be exposed more than 1/8" into the burner and not recessed more than 1/8". At this setting the flame rod will be enveloped by the pilot or main flame. It will be glowing bright red along at least 50% of its length. See Page 56, Figure
30.
NOTE: For the flame rod to produce this signal its position in relation to the grounding rod, pilot and main flame is critical.
The flame rectification module of the flame safeguard control converts this signal to a D.C. v
oltage. This voltage is the value that is used to monitor the pilot and the main flame of the burner. For the flame safeguard control to recognize this signal the value of the voltage must be between 6 to 18 volts D.C. and it must be steady. This signal is measured at the flame relay, on the rectification module's test jacks; S1 (colored red) and S2 (colored black). Upon receiving the correct signal, the flame relay will accept this as proof that the burner is functioning correctly and will proceed with its functions.

•100% Outside Air - Ventilating and Bake Cycle Mode
•100% Outside Air - Ventilating with Reduced Airflow for Bake Cycle Mode
•100% Outside Air - Ventilating with Recirculation for Baking Cycle Model (80% Recirculated Air after the burner and 20% Outside Air)
•100% Outside Air - Ventilating with Recirculation for Baking Cycle Model (90% Recirculated Air across the burner and 10% Outside Air)
Other terms may be used to describe the bake cycle mode such as; Cure or Cure Time Cycle, Dry or Drying Cycle, and Flash Kick Cycle. Ventilation air and the term outside air are also used interchangeably.
All process heaters come equipped with two High Limit discharge controllers, one for the ventilation cycle - maximum 160 °F (71 °C) (automatic reset) and one for the bake cycle mode - maximum 300 °F (149 °C) (manual reset). The discharge temperature controller limits the temperature to a maximum 250 °F (121 °C).
4. Instructions must be provided to require peri­odic inspection and cleaning of the recircula- tion air duct. The installer must supply this information.

5. The gas piping installer must locate a manual emergency gas shutoff valve in an appropriate location that allows access to shut off the flow of gas to the Process Heater in case of an emergency.

6. If a post purge (cool-down) cycle is not sup- plied with the Process Heater, then the installer must supply a timing circuit that allows 100% ventilation air of the space to cool the products down and purge any airborne contaminants.
7. It is also suggested that the following Burn Hazard Warning be installed at all access opening(s) to the heated space, served by the Process Heater that can be used by personnel to enter the space.
See Page 60, Figure 31.

19.2 Installer's Responsibilities

1. All access opening(s) to the heated space, served by the Process Heater that can be used by personnel to enter the space, must have door interlock switch or switches to shut down the Process Heater if in the bake cycle.

2. On recirculation Process Heaters, the return air duct from the served space must have filters installed to prevent particulate matter from entering the heater. If not supplied by the Pro­cess Heater, then the installer must supply them. These filters must be approved by the a
uthority having jurisdiction of the installation.

3. The return air duct system must be installed with doors, panels or other means for access to facilitate inspection, maintenance, cleaning and access to fire protection devices.

8. The space serviced by the Process Heater, during the bake cycle mode must have its light­ing turned off. If not supplied by the process heater, then the installer must electrically inter­lock the facility lights with the bake cycle.
9. Process Heaters in the baking cycle mode require a minimum of 200 CFM of ventilation air per 1000 CFH of fuel gas for proper com- bustion. If the Process Heater does not come equipped with the features to meet this require- ment, then the installer must provide the method to accomplish it.

19.3 Installer's Responsibility for Process Heaters Connected to Paint Booths

1. If the exhaust control system is not supplied by the Process Heater, then the installer must electrically interlock the exhaust system with the heater.

2. If a purge cycle between ventilation cycle mode and the bake cycle mode is not supplied with the Process Heater, then the installer must supply a purge timer that delays the bake cycle from operating for a minimum of 3 minutes or at least 4 air changes of the space.
3. The space serviced by the Process Heater, during the purging cycle and bake cycle mode must have all spray equipment turned off. If not supplied by the Process Heater, then the installer must electrically interlock the spray equipment with the Process Heater.
NOTE: Process Heaters supplied by Rapid Engineering LLC are available with the options required to satisfy this requirement.
A. Reduced Airflow Process Heaters
• Variable Frequency Drive control of the Process Heater's airflow.
B. 90/10 Recirculation Process Heaters
• The installer must ensure that the Outside Air Damper, when supplied by Rapid Engineering LLC, is set to provide proper airflow for combustion and to make sure the recirculation air is properly diluted during the bake cycle mode. This is accomplished by ensuring the bypass feature of the ventilating air damper is not blocked by the installation or that the minimum position control of the ventilating air damper is functioning properly.

Installation Code and Annual Inspections:
All installation and service of WEATHER-RITE
equipment must be performed by a contractor qualified in the installation and service of equipment sold and supplied by Weather-Rite LLC and conform to all requirements set forth in the WEATHER-RITE
manuals and all applicable governmental authorities pertaining to the installation, service, labeling and operation of the equipment. To help facilitate optimum performance and safety, Weather-Rite LLC recommends that a qualified contractor conduct, at a minimum, annual inspections of your WEATHER-RITE
equipment and perform service where necessary, using only replacement parts sold and supplied by Weather-Rite LLC.
Check installation site to ensure all codes and engineering specifications are correct. This section of the manual is intended to be used as an instructional guide to the commissioning of the direct fired air handler. Fill out the start up sheet located at the back of the manual as each step of the procedure is performed. This procedure must be completed by the commissioning contractor and returned to Weather­Rite LLC. If the document is not returned, the manufacturing date will be used as the warranty start date. All components have been checked at initial factory startup. During transit components may have loosened/shifted, check all wiring before initial startup.

20.1 Installation of Recirculating Air Handler

Every direct-fired air handler which recirculates room air (i.e., AM and FR styles) must utilize either a control system which limits temperature rise in proportion to the amou
nt of outdoor air, or a room carbon dioxide sensor, installed per the manufacturer’s recommendations. The normally­closed contacts of this sensor must be wired in as per the CO
concentration of CO
interlock diagram based on air handler
CO
2
interlock diagram, maintaining the room
2
below 5,000 ppm. Select the
2
configuration and model. See Page 43, Figure 24.
With the AM and VAV package, a temperature rise limiting resistor comes prewired. When the air handler goes into full recirculation, the resistor is activated, lowering the maximum temperature rise to comply with government standards. For the FR package, the gas valve is preset to the proper temperature rise. See Page 66, Table 18.

20.2 Mechanical

This piece of equipment requires at least 4 CFM
3
(6.8m
/h) of outside air per 1,000 Btu/h (0.293 kW).
Before installation, check that the local distribution condition, nature of gas and pressure, and the current state of adjustment of the equipment are compatible.
If filters are not installed (via inlet hood or filter section), an air strainer must be installed on the inlet of the air handler with openings less than or equal to 5/8" (16 mm) in diameter.
Air inlets must be installed with the lowest edge 19" (500 mm) above any surface. This applies to roof curbs, upright stands and suspended air handlers.

20.2.1 Sheave Alignment

Sheaves are factory aligned. On all air handlers, check sheave alignment as follows.
1. Attach a string to the vertical surface next to the blower shaft bearing. (See Page 62, Figure
32)

2. Wrap the string around the blower sheave and across both sheave surfaces as shown.

3. Adjust until all four contact points (triangle) touch the sheave su
rfaces. "IN" or "OUT" adjustment of the motor sheave and/or motor adjustment may be required.

4. Pull the string away from the motor sheave and then move it slowly back towards the sheave, making sure the string remains straight while touching all contact points.

5. Remove string before turning air handler on.

20.2.2 Belt Tension

• Belt tension should be checked with a belt-tension gauge when one is available. Follow the belt tension gauge instructions.
• When a tension gauge is not available, measure the belt span of the belts (
).
33
See Page 63, Figure
• Allow for 1/64" (0.40 cm) of deflection for each inch of center distance length for the charted pounds of force. Check
Page 63, Table 14
for
proper deflection force.
• EXAMPLE: A 40" (101.6 cm) shaft center distance would dictate 40"/64" or 5/8" (1.59 cm) of deflection. With a standard B-belt and a motor sheave measuring between 5.8" (14.7 cm) and 8.6" (21.84 cm), the belt will have proper tension if a 5/8" deflection can be achieved with a minimum of 6-3/8 lbs. and a maximum of 8-3/4 lbs. of pressure as measured with a belt tensioning gauge.

FIGURE 33: Belt Tension

20.3 Electrical

1. Check motor starter for proper overload set- tings. The overload setting should meet full load amps (FLA) of motor.
2. Measure the supply voltage with the air handler off and then on. For a system that is powered with three phase power, measure the voltage of each phase.
3. Verify correct blower rotation.
4. While the blower is running and the burner is off, measure the total system current draw with an ammeter. Measure the system current draw again after the burner adjustments are made and with the burner and blower both on.
5. If applicable, compare all variable frequency drive (VFD) programming parameters with specifications provided on electrical drawing.

20.4 Airflow

The air flow switches are factory calibrated safety devices for burner air flow. If an air flow switch does not close, the problem may not be the air flow switch. It could be an indication of an air flow problem (incorrect blower rotation, duct restrictions, etc.).

In order to verify proper airflow across the burner, the differential pressure across the profile plate needs to be measured. Attach a manometer to the pressure test ports where the pressure switch is attached and measure the differential pressure with a manometer. This reading must be 0.9 in wc +/- 0.1 in wc. (2.24 mbar +/- 0.25 mbar)
To a d j ust the differential pressure that was measured in the step above, use the adjustable sheave. To decrease the speed of the blower and the differential pressure, turn the adjustable half of the sheave o
utward (decrease diameter). To increase the speed of the blower and the differential pressure measured at the burner, rotate the adjustable half of the sheave inward (increase diameter). Both sides of the sheave must be turned equal, multiple grooves must be adjusted equal.
After any adjustment, it is necessary to re-check the alignment, belt tensions and verify that all sheave set screws are tightened to the specified torque value before engaging the blower. See Page 64, Table 15 and Ta b l e 1 6 . Typically, all sheaves have two set screws to secure the sheave to the motor shaft. Some sheaves may be press fit onto the motor shaft. On the two belt sheaves, there are four setscrews that hold the size adjustment. On the single belt sheaves, there are two set screw

20.4.2 Burner Pressure

1. A pressure tap is used to measure differential at the burner and to set high fire gas pressure. On air handlers equipped with a M611 modu- lating valve (Model XT-112), the pressure tap is located on a tee between the M611 valve and the burner. See Page 39, Figure 22 and Page 68, Figure 37. On air handlers equipped with the MR212 modulating valve (Models XT-115 - XT-130), the pressure tap could be located on the downstream side of the MR212 valve, on a T-fitting coming off the outlet pressure tap on the MR212 valve or between the MR212 valve and the burner. See Page 39, Figure 23 and Page 67, Figure 35.
2. Measure the burner pressure with the inlet manual gas valve off.
- Open the manual shut off located between the modulating valve and the burner.
- Turn the blower on and record the negative pressure on a u-tube manometer or gas pressure gauge. This reading is used for high fire burner pressure adjustment.
3. After taking the burner pressure reading, tem­porarily leave the manometer attached to the 1/8" tap. It will be used later to check high fire gas pressure.

20.5 Gas Piping and Initial Pressure Settings

1. Perform a pressure test on all gas supply lines to the air handler per applicable codes.
Make sure to isolate all gas controls before pressure testing the system.
2. Verify supply pressure does not exceed maxi­mum rated gas pressure as stated on the rating plate.
3. Set the supply gas pressure at the step down regulator (normally outside of the enclosure if one is installed) according to the nameplate rating inlet gas pressure specifications.
4. Only after performing steps 1-3 (above), verify pilot pressure.
•Place a u-tube manometer or gas pressure
gauge on the tee at the downstream side of the pilot pressure regulator.
Open the main gas valve and close the gas
valve downstream of the MR valve.
•Set the burner switch to "on" and adjust the
pilot pressure regulator to 1.0 in wc for natural gas or 0.5 in wc for LPG.
Verify that the burner flame control has a
flame signal of 6-8 Vdc.
Figure 34
.
See Page 64,
FIGURE 34: Fireye Flame Module

SECTION 20: START-UP P ROCEDURES
5. Adjust air handler high fire gas pressure.
Determine the high fire gas pressure by adding the manifold pressure for maximu m input (from the rating plate) and the burner negative pressure (from the measurement made in the burner pressure section of this procedure). Record this value for use in adjustment step.
For example:
Differential pressure= -1.0 in wc
Maximum manifold pressure (from rating plate)= 2.0 in wc
High fire gas pressure= 2.0 + (-1.0) in wc
High fire gas pressure= 1.0 in wc
Force the burner into high fire. Refer to the burner mode setting chart
Ta b l e 1 7
, for the specific amplifier and action
on Page 65,
Set the pressure at the burner side of the modulating valve to the calculated value (from the begining of this step), by removing high fire adjustment cap and rotating the regulator adjustment screw. A clockwise rotation increases manifold pressure. Temperature rise should not exceed maximum as listed
on Page 66, Table 18
. For under a million BTU input, the high fire gas pressure is set by adjusting the regulator upstream of the M611 valve.
Page 68, Figure 37
.
See
Reconnect any wires that were used for adjustment.
6. Adjust recirculating mode or reduced air vol- ume high fire gas pressure
• This adjustment is required for and only applies to AM and VAV style units.
• Force the unit into high fire and maximum recirculation for AM style or minimum air volume for VAV style. Refer to the burner mode setting chart
on Page 65, Table 17
for specific amplifier and action required to place it into high fire.
• Measure the recirculation temperature rise and compare it to
Page 66, Table 18
.
• The resistor on the reduced flow switch (mounted inside the control enclosure) may need adjustment until recirculation temperature rise is obtained.
• Return unit to normal operating conditions.
• Reconnect any wires that were removed for adjustment.
7. M a x i m um discharge temperature is 160° F (71° C) for models approved to Z83.4 and Z83.18 (see ETL Standard). For models approved Z83.25 (see ETL Standard), the maximum discharge temperature is 200° F (93° C).
8. Low fire adjustment
NOTE:
High fire gas pressure must be set BEFORE adjusting low fire. There are three critical items to consider before adjusting low fire:
A. Low fire adjustment does not regulate
gas pressure.
B. If the low fire adjustment screw is set to
maximum, high fire regulation problems will occur.
C. The burner control system must be
forced into low fire per the "Burner Mode by Amplifier Type" table. See Page 65, Ta b l e 1 7 .
•Low fire is set at the MR212 valve using the adjustment screw under the low fire adjustment cap screw (loosen locking screw before adjustment),
See Page 67, Figure 35
or on the M611 valve using the brass adjusting screw on the front side,
68, Figure 36
. The burner must be forced
See Page
into low fire first. Then rotate the adjustment screw until there is a continuous blue ribbon across the entire burner. A counter clockwise rotation increases the flame size. Low fire temperature rise must not exceed 12° F (7° C). Tighten locking screw when finished.
Reconnect any wires that were removed for adjustment.
9. Once gas pressure and high/low fire adjust- ments are made, the gas setup is completed. All taps and instruments must be removed and all caps and plugs must be replaced.

To re-lubricate the blower pillow block bearings, be sure that the grease fittings on the bearing housing (or air handler cabinet wall in the case of extended grease lines) are clean. Apply the recommended grease to the fitting with a low-pressure grease gun and add slowly while the shaft is spun by hand. Do not over-grease. Over-greasing will reduce the service life of the bearings. Consult the blower manufacturer for grease capacity recommendations as capacities vary by model.

Table 19: Motor Lubrication Intervals

NOTE: These intervals are based on severe duty. Over lubricating bearings could result in reduced motor life
.
NEMA Frame Size (Motor HP) Rated at 1800 RPM Up to 210 incl. (3 - 5 HP) 6,000 hrs Over 210 to 280 incl. (7.5 - 20 HP) 4,750 hrs Over 280 to 360 incl. (25 - 30 HP) 3,700 hrs
Motors Inspection:

1. Inspect motor every 3 months or 500 hours of operation, which ever occurs first. Keep the motor clean and vent openings clear.

Lubrication:

1. M o t o r s with grease fittings must be lubricated based on the table below.

2. A high grade ball or roller bearing grease must be used. Recommended grease for standard service is Polyrex EM (Exxon Mobil). Other com­patible greases include; Texaco Polystar, Rykon Premium #2, Pennzoil Pen 2 Lube and Chevron SRI.
3. Motors without grease fittings are sealed for life and do not require re- lubrication.
Instructions for Lubricating
Before greasing, be sure fittings are clean and free from dirt. Remove grease relief plug or plate and, using a low-pressure grease gun, pump in the required grease. Do not over-grease. Overgreasing will reduce the service life of the motor. Consult the motor manufacturer for grease capacity recommen- dations as capacities vary by motor. Relubrication intervals are specified in the table above. After relubricating, allow motor to run for 10 minutes before replacing relief hardware.
NOTE: In general it is not recommended to mix greases of different brands. The mixing of different types of thickeners may destroy the composition and physical properties of the grease. In the event that a different grease is required by the end user, the following steps can be taken. Using the instruc- tions for lubrication, open grease outlet and purge the system as much as possible of the old or unwanted grease. Repeat this same operation after 1 week of service. Consult Weather-Rite LLC or the motor manufacturer for fur- ther recommendations on grease compatibility.

SECTION 21: MAINTENANCE

21.4 Manifold and Controls

Manifold Periodically check gas control assembly and internal and external piping for
leaks. Relief vent lines to outdoors on gas controls should be checked to ensure against blockage caused by insects or any other substance. Clean as required.
All gas piping to the air handler must comply with the National Fuel Gas Code
- NFPA54, latest edition and all local codes. Verify gas soundness of each SSOV (Safety Shut Off Valve). This test must be repeated after the first 100 hours of operation.
See Page 37, Figure 18 through Page 38, Figure 21.
Air Flow Switch An annual check of the tubes attached to the air flow switch should be made
to ensure against blockage caused by insects or any other substance. Clean as required.
See Page 63, Section 20.4.
Electric Components Check for physical damage on any of the electric components and verify all
electrical connections are secure. Ensure equipment is properly grounded.
Temperature Sensors Calibrate space, outdoor air, and discharge air sensors as required.
See Page 63, Section 20.2.3.

21.5 Burner

An annual inspection of the burner and components must be made to ensure proper and safe operation. For the most part, the bu However, if the application is extremely dirty or dusty, it may become neces- sary to periodically clean the burner. Inspect and clean the burner in accor­dance with the following recommended procedures:

1. To avoid damaging the valves, disconnect the burner piping from the manifold, at the union, and cover the exposed end of the manifold. See Page 37, Figure 18 through Page 38, Figure 21.

2. Remove the pilot assembly. See Page 43, Section 16.6.4.

3. Remove the ignition cable from the igniter on the side of the burner, and then remove the spark igniter. Clean the igniter contacts with a wire brush. Set the gap to 0.125" (3.17 mm).

4. Inspect each of the stainless steel mixing plates to see that all of the air holes are free of debris. Clean with a wire brush as necessary.

5. The burner orifices may need to be drilled to unplug any closed orifices. Use a pin vise with the appropriate drill to clean debris from the orifices. An electric drill is not suggested because it is easy to snap drill bits off in the orifices.

6. Reinstall the pilot assembly. Reconnect the burner piping to the mani- fold at the union.
rner is self cleaning.

SERIES XT INSTALLATION, OPERATION AND SERVICE MANUAL

21.6 Optional Equipment

Dampers Check linkage when applicable and tighten set screws as required. All moving
parts of dampers should be cleaned and then thoroughly lubricated with a light molybdenum oil in aerosol can. Dampers furnished with stainless steel side seals should also have the seals lubricated generously. Dampers should then be manually operated several times until linkages and blades operate freely. Reconnect linkages and check dampers for proper operation.
See Page 30, Section 12.
Filters Filters should be checked for dirt restriction on a monthly basis (or as
required). Replace filters with filters of equal specification when they appear dirty. NOTE: When using Weather-Rite LLC supplied disposable polyester filters, they must be inserted with the white media side facing the inlet of filter sec­tion. When using Weather-Rite LLC supplied permanent aluminum mesh or disposable filters, they must be inserted with the arrow on the filter pointing in the direction of airflow (toward the air handler).
