27.Burner Maintenance

This heater is equipped with a TCORE2® heat exchanger (patent pending).

Remove any external dirt or dust accumulation. Visually check the heat exchanger for cracks and holes. If a crack or hole is observed, replace the heat exchanger.

NOTE: Inspection of the lower portion of the heat exchanger is done with the burner removed. See the Burner Service section below for information on inspect- ing the lower portion of the heat exchanger.

This heater is equipped with a TCORE2® burner (patent pending).

Inspect the burner/control compartment annually to determine if cleaning is nec- essary. If there is an accumulation of dirt, dust, and/or lint, clean the compartment and follow the instructions below to remove and clean the burner.

Burner Removal Instructions (Refer to FIGURE 17.)

FIGURE 17 - Burner Removal (UDAP illustrated; same process for both UDAP and UDAS)

CAUTION: Use of eye protection is recommended.

1.Outside the cabinet, shut the gas supply off at the manual valve ahead of the union.

2.Turn off electric supply.

3.Disconnect the gas supply at the union outside of the cabinet.

4.Remove the access panel.

5.Disconnect the Gas Train and Move Out of the Way - At the gas valve, mark and disconnect the wires. Carefully remove the burner orifice and orifice adapter locking nut. Slide the orifice adapter out through the bracket on the burner pushing the gas train to the right. This will move the gas train out of the way.

6.Move the Control Assembly - Remove the two screws holding the control assembly bracket. Being careful not to disconnect any wires, slide the control assembly to the right.

7.Remove Secondary Air Baffles (Sizes 60-400 only) - Vertical along the right side of the burner, locate the flat plate(s) identified as the secondary air baffle(s). The quantity of baffles could be one to four depending on heater

Burner Body Support (at least two per unit) - Remove screw attaching to secondary air shield. Support remains attached to burner.
