TESTING
Testing Unit
Purge air from gas line.
Refer to pipe sizing chart if in doubt about the size of the gas line.
Connection can easily be reached from the top, rear or the unit. Check for leaks using soapy water or leak detection spray after turning gas on.
Plug unit in and turn power on, (CAUTION: 230V AC inside unit.)
Turn thermostat to HIGH, turn control to ON. Unit should ignite within 10 seconds.
If unit does not ignite there may still be air in the gas line. Turn control OFF, then ON.
Check pressure, Regulator is factory set.
If pressure is incorrect, CHECK SUPPLY PRESSURE BEFORE ALTERING REGULATOR. The heater must be stopped before checking pressure.
Remove the 2 test point screws and connect the manometer hoses to the differential pressure test points on the modulating valve and burner manifold.
Turn the unit to the ON position using the On/Off button on the control panel and check pressure. If pressure is correct remove manometer and replace test point screw.
Leak test all gas connections.
Fault - Finding Procedure
If unable to get the unit to operate correctly, contact Rinnai UK.
Do not use this heater if any part has been under water. Immediately call a qualified service technician to inspect the heater and to replace any part of the control system and any gas control that has gotten wet.
WARNING: Do not operate appliance with any panels removed, cracked or broken.
Installation and repair should be done by a qualified service person. The appliance should be inspected before use and at least annually by a qualified service person.
More frequent cleaning may be required due to excessive lint from carpeting, bedding material,etc.
It is imperative that control compartments, burners, and circulating air passageways of the appliance be kept clean. Ventilating system should be inspected and cleaned annually of all debris and spider webs.
Warning: DO NOT OPERATE APPLIANCE UNTIL PROPER INSTALLATION HAS BEEN COMPLETED.
The gas pressure check must be carried out with all other appliances on the same main operating at maximum capacity to ensure that there is sufficient gas pressure.
With all other appliances operating the pressure at the test point on the inlet to the gas valve should read 20 mbar for Natural Gas. For LPG (Propane) the pressure should be 37 mbar. If the pressure is lower, the gas supply is inadequate and the water heater will not operate to specification. Check gas meter, regulator and pipework for correct operation/sizing and rectify as required. Note that the gas regulator on the Infinity is electronically controlled and factory
