Limits & Interlock Tests

1)Manually shut off the fuel supply to the pilot and the main burner.

2)Place system in pilot test mode (please refer to page 15).

3)Start the system normally. The controller should lock out*; if it doesn’t, then the controller is detecting a false flame signal (see Section 6). Find the problem and correct it before resuming normal operation.

1)Manually shut off the fuel supply to the main burner but not to the pilot.

2)Start the system normally. This should ignite the pilot and lock out* after pilot interruption. If the system does not lock out, the controller is detect- ing a false flame signal (see Section 6). Find the problem and correct it be- fore resuming normal operation.

1)Manually shut off the fuel supply to the pilot and the main burner.

2)Start the system normally.

3)Measure the flame signal as described in “Flame Signal Strength” in this section.

4)If a flame signal greater than 4 VDC is measured for more than three sec- onds during the trial for ignition, then the sensor is picking up a signal from the spark plug; see “Sensor Wiring” on page 24.

Periodically check all interlock and limit switches by manually tripping them during burner operation to make sure they cause the system to shut down.

Warning

Never operate a system that is improperly adjusted or has faulty in- terlocks or limit switches. Always replace faulty equipment with new equipment before resuming operation. Operating a system with de- fective safety equipment can cause explosions, injuries, and property damage.
