important

For proper unit function and safety, follow the start-up procedure in the exact order that it is presented.

important

This start-up should begin after all of the installation procedures and the blower start-up have been completed.

1. Check the Supply Gas Pressure

Check the supply gas pressure and compare it with the unit’s nameplate pressure requirements. Adjust the supply regulator as needed until the supply gas pressure is within the specified range.

important

Proper air velocity over the burner is critical on direct fired gas units. If the air velocity is not within the unit specifications, the unit will not operate efficiently, may have sporadic shutdowns and may produce excessive carbon monoxide (CO) or other gases.

4a. Set the Burner Air Pressure Differential

With the fan running and discharging 70°F (21°C) air, connect a U-Tube manometer to the outer sensing probes (see below) and measure the static pressure across the burner.

2. Check the Pilot Gas Pressure

Check the pilot gas pressure. The recommended gas pressure is 3 inches wc. Adjust the pilot regulator as needed. See the Gas Train Layout in the Reference section for the location of the pilot pressure test port and pilot regulator.

and 0.675 inches wc. If needed, evenly adjust the baffles above and below the burner, keeping the burner centered in the opening until the required pressure is obtained.

3.Check the Optional High and Low Gas Pressure Switches

Check the settings on the high and low gas pressure switches. The high pressure setting is typically 8 inches wc and the low pressure is setting is typically 3 inches wc. The switches are set at the factory and should not need adjustment. Adjust the setting if needed. See the Gas Train Layout diagram in the Reference section for the high and low pressure switch location.

note

The purpose of the high and low gas pressure switches is to automatically shutdown the burner if the inlet gas pressure is too low for the burner to safely light, or if the manifold pressure is too high for the burner to operate safely.

Note

When required pressure is obtained, be sure to reconnect the outer sensing probes.

important

This process may need to be repeated until the proper pressure is achieved. This adjustment will change the air quantity delivered by the unit and therefore the air quantity delivered should be rechecked. Refer to the Blower Start-Up section.

Note

To increase the static pressure decrease the opening. To decrease the static pressure increase the opening.
