ADJUSTMENT OF MANIFOLD GAS PRESSURE & INPUT RATE

Inlet and manifold gas pressure may be measured by connecting the “U” tube manometer to the gas valve with a piece of tubing. Follow the appropriate section in the instructions below. Refer to Figure 39 for a drawing of the locations of the pressure ports on the gas valve.

Turn gas off at the ball valve or gas cock on gas supply line before the gas valve. Find the pressure ports on the gas valve marked Out P and In P.

1.The manifold pressure must be taken at the port marked OUT P.

2.The gas line pressure must be taken at the port marked IN P.

3.Using a 3/32” (2.4 mm) Allen wrench, loosen the set screw by turn- ing it 1 turn counter clockwise. DO NOT REMOVE THE SET SCREW FROM THE PRESSURE PORT.

Read the inlet gas pressure

Connect the positive side of the manometer to the IN P Tap on the gas valve. Do not connect any tubing to the negative side of the manometer, as it will reference atmospheric pressure. Refer to Figure 40 for connec- tion details.

1.Turn gas and electrical supplies on and follow the operating instruc- tions to place the unit back in operation.

Table 16: Inlet Gas Pressure Range

 

INLET GAS PRESSURE RANGE

 

Natural Gas

Propane (LP)

Minimum

4.5” w.c. (1.12 kPa)

8.0” w.c. (1.99 kPa)

Maximum

10.5” w.c. (2.61 kPa)

13.0” w.c. (3.24 kPa)

The inlet gas pressure operating range table specifies what the mini- mum and maximum gas line pressures must be for the furnace to operate safely. The gas line pressure MUST BE a minimum of:

7” w.c. (1.74 kPA) for Natural Gas

11” w.c. (2.74 kPA) for Propane (LP) Gas

in order to obtain the BTU input specified on the rating plate and/or the nominal manifold pressure specified in these instructions and on the rating plate.

2.Once the correct gas inlet pressure has been established, see Table 16, turn the gas valve to OFF and turn the electrical supply switch to OFF; then remove the flexible tubing from the gas valve pressure tap and tighten the pressure tap plug using the 3/32” (2.4 mm) Allen wrench.

3.Turn the electrical and gas supplies back on, and with the burners in operation, check for gas leakage around the gas valve pressure port for leakage using an approved non-corrosive gas leak detec- tion fluid, or other non-flammable leak detection methods.

Read the manifold gas pressure

Connect the positive side of the manometer to the adapter previously installed in the OUT P Tap on the gas valve. Do not connect any tubing to the negative side of the manometer, as it will reference atmospheric pressure. Refer to Figure 40 for connection details.

The cap for the pressure regulator must be removed entirely to gain access to the adjustment screw. Loosening or tightening the cap does not adjust the flow of gas.

NOTICE

The regulated outlet pressure has been calibrated at the factory. Additional pressure adjustment should not be necessary. If adjust- ment is necessary, set to the following specifications. After adjust- ment, check for gas leakage.

This gas valve has separate regulator adjustment screws for high fire and low fire, as shown in Figure 39. The procedure below is used to adjust either the high fire manifold pressure or the low fire manifold pressure.

1.Refer to Figure 39 for location of pressure regulator adjustment cap and adjustment screws on main gas valve.

2.Turn gas and electrical supplies on and follow the operating instruc- tions to place the unit back in operation.

3.Adjust manifold pressure by adjusting gas valve regulator screw for the appropriate gas per the following:

FIGURE 40: Gas Valve

If gas valve regulator is turned in (clockwise), manifold pressure is increased. If screw is turned out (counterclockwise), manifold pres- sure will decrease.

4.After the manifold pressure has been adjusted, re-calculate the fur- nace input to make sure you have not exceeded the specified input on the rating plate. Refer to “CALCULATING THE FURNACE INPUT (NATURAL GAS)”.

5.Once the correct BTU (kW) input has been established, turn the gas valve to OFF and turn the electrical supply switch to OFF; then remove the flexible tubing from the gas valve pressure tap and tighten the pressure tap plug using the 3/32” (2.4 mm) Allen wrench.

6.Turn the electrical and gas supplies back on, and with the burners in operation, check for gas leakage around the gas valve pressure port for leakage using an approved non-corrosive gas leak detec- tion fluid, or other non-flammable leak detection methods.
