OPERATION

POWER VENTED PROPELLER UNITS

DIRECT SPARK IGNITION

EXPLANATION OF CONTROLS (See Figure 25):

1.Each Unit Heater comes equipped with a power vent system that consists of a power venter motor and blower, pressure switch, and sealed flue collector in place of the conventional draft diverter.

2.The power venter motor is energized by the room thermostat through the integrated control board when a demand for heat is sensed. The pressure switch measures the flow through the vent system and energizes the direct spark ignition system beginning the pre-purge timing when the flow is correct.

The pressure switch MUST NOT be bypassed. The unit MUST NOT be ﬁred unless the power venter is operating. An unsafe condition could result.

3.The direct ignition system consists of an ignition control module and a gas valve. When the pre-purge period ends, the spark ignition system is energized, and the gas valve opens to supply gas to the burner. When the thermostat is satisﬁed, the vent system is de-energized and the valve closes to stop the ﬂow of gas to the unit.

4.The limit switch interrupts the ﬂow of electric current to the control board, interrupting the ﬂow of gas to the gas valve if the unit heater becomes overheated.

5.The flame roll-out switch interrupts the flow of electric current to the control board, interrupting the flow of gas to the unit heater in the event of sustained flame roll-out from the burner area. If this switch trips, DETERMINE AND CORRECT THE CAUSE of the ﬂame roll-out.

6.Once the thermostat is satisﬁ ed, or the limit switch interrupts the ﬂ ow of electric current to the control board, the unit will begin a post-purge period. When the post-purge period ends, the power venter motor is de-energized.

7.The fan operation is delayed 30 seconds once the thermostat is closed, and continues operation for 30 seconds after the thermostat opens. The start-up fan delay must not exceed 30 seconds from a cold start.

8.The wall thermostat, supplied optionally, is a temperature sensitive switch that operates the vent system and ignition system to control the temperature of the space being heated. The thermostat must be mounted on a vertical, vibration-free surface free from air currents and in accordance with the furnished instructions (also refer to Electrical Section).

START-UP (Also refer to lighting instruction plate equipped on the unit)

1.Open the manual gas valve in the gas supply line to the unit heater with union connection loose, purge air from the gas line. Tighten the union and check for leaks.

Never use an open ﬂame to detect gas leaks. Explosive conditions may exist which could result in personal injury or death.

2.Open the manual valve on the unit heater.

3.Turn ON the electrical power.

4.The unit should be under the control of the thermostat. Turn the thermostat to the highest point and determine that the power venter motor starts and the burner ignite. Turn the thermostat to the lowest point and determine that the power venter motor shuts off and the burner is extinguished.

5.Turn the thermostat to the desired position.

6.See Gas Input Rate and Adjustments sections.

SHUT DOWN

1.Turn the valve selector lever to the “OFF” position.

2.Turn off the electricity.

3.To relight, follow “start-up” instructions.
