Weekly

For low-pressure heaters, test low-water cut-off device. (With at least one stage of the appliance on, depress the low water cut-off test button, appliance should shut-off and ignition fault light should come on. Depress reset button to reset).

Monthly

1.Check flue, vent, stack, or outlet dampers.

2.Test fan air pressure. (See “Blower Adjustment” on page 47.)

3.Test high and low gas pressure interlocks (if equipped). (See “Safety Inspection” on page 48.)

Semi-Annually

1.Recalibrate all indicating and recording gauges.

2.Check flame failure detection system components. (See “Pilot Turn-Down Test Procedure,” page 48.)

3.Check firing rate control by checking the manifold pressure. (See “Main Burner Adjustment” on page 47.)

4.Check piping and wiring of all interlocks and shut- off valves.

5.Inspect and clean burners as necessary.

Annually

1.Test flame failure detection system and pilot turn- down. (See “Pilot Turn-Down Test Procedure,” page 48.)

2.Test high limit and operating temperature. (See “Post Start-Up Check,” page 49.)

3.Check flame sensors.

4.Conduct a combustion test at full fire. Carbon di- oxide should be 7.5 to 8.5% at full fire for natural gas, and between 9.2 to 9.8% for propane gas; Carbon monoxide should be < 150 ppm).

5.Check coils for 60 cycle hum or buzz. Check for leaks at all valve fittings using a soapy water solu- tion. Test other operating parts of all safety shut-off and control valves and increase or decrease set- tings (depending on the type of control) until the safety circuit opens. Reset to original setting after each device is tested.

6.Perform leakage test on gas valves. (See Fig. 42.)

7.Test air switch in accordance with manufacturer’s instructions. (Turn panel switch to the “On” posi- tion until blower is proven, then turn the switch to “Off”.

As Required

1.Recondition or replace low water cut-off device (if equipped).

2.Check drip leg and gas strainers.

3.Perform flame failure detection and pilot turn- down tests.

4.Check igniter. (Resistance reading should be 40- 75 ohms at 77°F.)

5.Check flame signal strength. (Flame signal should be greater than 1 microamp).

6.Test safety/safety relief valves in accordance with ASME Heater and Pressure Vessel Code Sections VI and VII.
