auto-fill system. The water level is controlled by two circuit boards and two sensors. The sensors are located in the tube on the right side of the overflow deck. The upper sensor controls the water level and the lower sensor controls the low water safety shut-off system. Once the water On/Off switch is turned on, the blue light will come on and start to fill until the water level reaches the upper sensor.
PROBLEM Constant pilot won’t light. Runner pilot tube won't light. Runner pilot won’t stay lit. Delayed ignition. PROBABLE CAUSE SOLUTION a.Gas isn't turned on. a.Turn manual gas valve on. If using flexible connector with quick disconnect, make sure quick disconnect is completely engaged. b.Clogged constant pilot tubing. b.Turn Custom Pasta System and manual gas valve off. Clean tubing. c. Constant pilot valve isn't turned on. c. Turn constant pilot valve on and adjust pilot flame height. a.
PROBLEM Flames come out front. Custom Pasta System has poor recovery. Burners won’t come on although runner despite proper water level. PROBABLE CAUSE SOLUTION a.Burners misaligned. a.Adjust position of burners. b.Exhaust problems. b.Install deflector to block down draft. Install or adjust flue restrictors. If problem persists, contact your HVAC representative. c. Radiants have slipped forward. c. Reposition radiants. d.Flue blockage. d.Turn Custom Pasta System and manual gas valve off.
PROBLEM Water always filling. SOLUTIONS (Follow Sequentially) a.Clean sensors thoroughly with brush and vinegar. b.Adjust the sensitivity of the B Board (for the top sensor) fully clockwise. c. If filling persists, ground out the top sensor (if filling stops, replace sensor – Part #010212). d.If filling persists after grounding out the sensor, replace the B Board (Part #001166) Water never fills. a.Turn water switch (far right) ‘ON.’ b.Clean sensors thoroughly with brush and vinegar. c.
REPLACEMENT OF A AND B BOARDS 1. Locate the wiring diagram. it will help later with connecting wires to the board. 2. Disconnect wires from the board. 3. Unscrew mounting screws. There are three of them per board. 4. Replace the board. 5. Reconnect the wires. 6. Adjust sensitivity. 7. Close the box. 8. Seal the box using silicone and filling all openings and gaps if the box is made out of aluminized material. Rubber sealed box does not need to be sealed.
V SERVICE DIAGNOSIS The burners when on will produce clear blue flames directed at the inside walls of the heat transfer tubes. The radiant’s fins, located towards the rear of each transfer tube, will glow bright red, helping to ensure optimum heat distribution into the Pasta System vessel. All radiants should be pushed to the rear and then pulled gently forward (until their retaining clips engage the rear of the tubes) for optimum heat distribution.
