Lochinvar 399 Sequence Of Operation, Servicing Hot Surface Igniter and Ignition Module, Overview

Installation and Service Manual

6.Adjust the air shutter on the right fan until the differential pressure is nominally 1.1-1.3 inches water column.

7.Once the adjustment procedure is complete, reattach the caps to the tees in the hoses to the pressure switches and check all tubing and wire connections for snug fit. Test fire the unit. Install upper panels.

7.Turn on gas supply.

8.Press the module reset buttons (located on the front of the unit) to reset modules.

9.If ignition system fails to operate properly, repair work must be performed by a qualified service person or installer.

Servicing Hot Surface Igniter and Ignition Module

This unit uses a proven hot surface ignition control module and a hot surface igniter. The hot surface ignition module is not repairable. Any modification or repairs will invalidate the warranty.

WARNING: Do not attempt to repair a faulty hot surface igniter or ignition module. Any modification or repairs may create hazardous conditions that result in property damage, personal injury, fire, explosion and/or toxic gases.

A faulty hot surface igniter or ignition module must be replaced with an identical part. A specification igniter and ignition control module for this specific unit is available from your local distributor. Do not use general purpose field replacement ignition modules or igniters.

Ignition System Checkout

1.Turn off gas supply to unit.

2.Turn electric power on.

3.Program each stage of the temperature control to settings above water temperature or to the highest safe setting.

4.Each igniter will cycle on trial(s) for ignition.

5.Each ignition module will lock out and turn the alarm light on.

6.Program each stage of the temperature control to the desired temperature set points.

SEQUENCE OF OPERATION

OVERVIEW

This sequence of operation can be considered the order of events in sequential order that occur after the unit has received a call for heat. The process begins with 120VAC power entering the unit and ends with the unit going into an idle state after completion of a successful call for heat. Note: The following descriptions do not include remotely connected devices that may be connected to the unit. Refer to the wiring diagram for actual point to point wiring connections that show power delivery.

POWER SUPPLY

120VAC/60Hz/1PH power connects to black (line) and white (neutral) wires located within an electrical wiring box located on the left side of the unit. A green chassis grounding wire is also provided for connection to earth ground.

ON/OFF ROCKER SWITCH

The black line voltage wire runs directly to a single pole, single throw On/Off rocker switch located behind the front cover accessible by a thumb screw. Turning ON the rocker switch delivers line voltage to the low voltage transformer and ignition modules. Note: The On/Off switch does not provide for disconnection of power being supplied to any remotely connected devices that may be connected to the unit (i.e. pumps, louvers, power venters, etc.). As such, it may be necessary to locate and turn off power to these items before attempting to service the unit.

LOW VOLTAGE SUPPLY TRANSFORMER

A 120VAC to 24VAC transformer located within the control panel provides 24VAC/60Hz to many of the components located on the unit. One of its 24VAC outputs (blue) is connected to a circuit breaker and the other (yellow) is connected to chassis ground.

24VAC CIRCUIT BREAKER

A circuit breaker is provided for protection of the low voltage supply transformer from overloads and short circuits. The breaker is located inside the unit on the right rear of the control panel. Power from this breaker goes to the electronic temperature controller, ignition module and various other components and/or options on the unit. When tripped, all factory-installed 24VAC components will lose their 24VAC power.
