Input Voltage | Alternating Current (AC) Input provided by the local power company. This source of energy | |||
| must provide a 120 Volt input signal with a frequency of 60 Hertz and a maximum branch | |||
| current capacity of 15 Amperes. If other devices are connected to the branch, interference or | |||
Fuse | over current may cause circuit breaker to trip. |
| ||
The AC fuse should be rated between 6 and 9 amperes. | The recommended fuse is a Little | |||
Vacuum Sensor | Fuse Model _______. |
|
| |
Ensures that no blockage of the combustion input or combustion exhaust air occurs. If the | ||||
| vacuum sensor does not operate properly, the Control Board will not allow the stove to | |||
| operate. |
|
|
|
Exhaust Temperature Sensor | Presently, this sensor is a snap disk operating at 110o F +/- 20o F. This sensor ensures proper | |||
| exhaust temperature has been reached and that a fire is present in the burn pot before the | |||
| control system begins the burn cycle. |
| ||
Room Air Temperature Sensor | Presently, this sensor is a snap disk operating at 110o F +/- 20o F. This sensor ensures that a | |||
| proper amount of heat is available at the heat exchanger before the room fan is allowed to | |||
| operate. If the sensor allows the fan to come on to early, the combustion chambers | |||
| temperature could drop to the point that | |||
| maintained. |
|
|
|
Overtemp Sensor | Presently, this sensor is a snap disk operating at 250o F +/- 20o F. The purpose of this sensor | |||
Fuel Control | is to shut the entire system down in the event the firebox causes an overheat condition. | |||
The fuel control is a signal provided from the Control Board to the Auger Feed Motor. The | ||||
| Control Board controls the amount of time that the Auger Feed Motor is on and thereby | |||
Room Air Control | controls the amount of fuel fed to the fire pot. |
| ||
The room air control is a signal provided from the Control Board to the Room Air Fan. The | ||||
| Control Board controls the phase angle and thereby the amount and time an AC voltage is | |||
| applied to the Room Air Fan. This signal controls the speed of the room air passing over the | |||
Combustion Air Control | heat exchanger tubes and the amount of heat delivered to the living space. | |||
The combustion air control is a signal provided from the Control Board to the Combustion | ||||
| Fan. The Control Board controls the phase angle and thereby the amount and time an AC | |||
| voltage is applied to the Combustion Air Fan. This signal controls the speed of the | |||
Igniter | combustion air passing through the burn pot for the different heat settings | |||
An AC heating element used to provide initial heat to the pellet combustion process. Once | ||||
| the Control Board senses combustion, the Igniter is shut off to conserve energy usage. | |||
Thermostat (optional) | A thermostat input is provided on the back of each Country Flame product. The Control | |||
| Board has individual personality modules that allow for | |||
| automatic thermostat operation. |
