FURNACE COMPONENTS
The descriptions below are various functional components that affect the operation and shutting down of this furnace.
Some of these components and their locations are shown in Figure 43 (page 54) or Figure 44 (page 55). If
any component of the furnace must be replaced, use only factory authorized replacement parts specified in the
Replacement Parts List provided online.
CondensateDrainSwitch: The Condensate Drain Switch will shut down the furnace if the condensate drain from
the Collector Pan becomes clogged.
BlowerLimitSwitch: Prevents operation when blower is not operational.
FlameSensor:Verifies when a flame has carried over from the igniter to the opposite end burner. If no flame is
detected, the furnace will shut down within 4 seconds.
FlameRoll-OutSwitch: Verifies that the burner flames are drawn into the heat exchanger tubes. If the burner
flames are not properly drawn into the heat exchanger, the flame roll-out switch will close the gas valve and initiate
the shutdown cycle.
GasValve:Controls the flow of gas to the burners. When the gas valve is energized it automatically opens and
regulates the gas pressure in the manifold.
InducerAssembly:Vents products of combustion to the outside.
PressureSwitches:Verifies that the inducer is drawing the combustion gases through the heat exchanger. The
pressure switch prevents furnace operation with excessive flue/condensate blockage or improper inducer operation.
SupplyAirLimitSwitch: Prevents the air temperature leaving the furnace from exceeding the maximum allowable
outlet air temperature.
