Adams Condensing Oil-Fired Furnace operation manual XI. START-UP Procedure & Adjustment

Page 18

When the furnace is used in connection with a cooling unit, the furnace should be installed in parallel with or on the upstream side of the cooling unit to avoid condensation in the heating element. With a parallel flow arrangement, the dampers or other means used to control the flow of air must be adequate to prevent chilled air from entering the furnace and, if manually operated, must be equipped with means to prevent operation of either unit unless the damper is in the full heat or cool position.

FILTERS - READ THIS SECTION BEFORE INSTALLING THE RETURN AIR DUCTWORK

A FILTER MUST BE USED WITH THIS FURNACE. Discuss filter maintenance with the building owner. Filters are shipped with this furnace. Filters must comply with UL900 or CAN/ULCS111 standards.

If the furnace is installed without filters. the warranty will be voided.

Inspect Filter Frequently!

Replace 3 times each heating season.

XI. START-UP PROCEDURE & ADJUSTMENT

Please read the procedures outlined below and familiarize yourself with the appliance sequence of operation before conducting any tests or starting the appliance.

Note: A separate start-up form is attached to the installation instructions and must be completed and returned to the manufacturer for warranty registration within 30 days of installation.

Check that furnace is installed level. This is important since the secondary heat exchanger is pitched at 3 degrees for proper condensate drainage. Check with a carpenters level and shim accordingly.

Verify that the fuel supply lines are leak­ free. Inspect all connections for air leaks. Fuel system integrity is often assumed, but cannot be overlooked. Test the fuel system for integrity. Even a small leak can cause a multitude of burner issues. Never use compression fittings.

Verify pump pressure with appropriate test instrument. (140 PSI) for Adams

INTERburner Mark 10 or Beckett NX.

Check pump seal by shutting off pump and noting the pressure drop. The pump pressure should drop approximately 20% and hold indefinitely.

Prime oil filter supplied with the appliance before bleeding air from system. Purge the oil pump of air in the system as soon as the burner motor starts rotating by opening bleeder valve on pump and catch oil in suitable container.

Check post-purge timing on primary safety control by examining dip-switch configuration on the primary control. This control is factory set at 8 minutes post purge time.

Locate fan control in blower compartment. Check blower-ontime delay. Set delay for 30 seconds.

Verify blower-offdelay setting at 390-600 seconds. This is required for proper heat removal from the heat exchanger once the thermostat is satisfied.

Do not remove blower deck support bracket located in the blower compartment. This bracket may be confused for a shipping bracket and must not be removed. This bracket is installed in up-flow and counter­ flow models only. It is a sheet metal support bracket in the blower compartment.

Prime condensate drain trap with water.

Operate the burner for (3) minutes on, (3) minutes off twice. Operate the burner for approximately 30-40 minutes to cure the

internal ceramic fiber combustion

chamber. Be aware of moderate odor/smoke upon initial firing and gradually diminishing to normal over the break-in period. Note the air handler should be operating at all times during the break-in period and final tuning.

You are now ready for the final fine-tuning.

The burner air settings are approximate and needs to be adjusted to the vent system in the field for most efficient operation.
