ELECTRICAL WIRING
NOTE: If it is necessary to replace any of the original
wiring, use 105°C wire or its equivalent, and/or 150°C
wire or its equivalent, like the original wiring.
MILLIVOLT MODELS
The Millivolt models are equipped with a self-generat-
ing electrical system in which the electrical current is
provided  by  a  pilot  generator.    No  external  electrical
connections are required.
When installing a remote switch, do not exceed 10 ft of
wiring from the heater.  Use 18-gauge stranded wire.
DIGITAL AND ADVANCED FLAME TECHNOLOGY
(AFT) MODELS
The  standard field-wiring  connection  is  on  the  right
side of the heater.
To wire the heater from the left side, follow these
steps :
1. Remove the two (2) screws that hold the front door
to the heater. Remove and set aside door for bet-
ter access to wiring.
2. Remove  the  four  (4)  screws  that  hold  down  the
junction box to the sway brace.
3. Remove the  transformer cover located on the  far
right by removing one (1) screw.
4. Remove  the  two  (2)  screws  that  hold  down  the
transformer.
5. Remove  the  one  (1)  screw  that  holds  down  the
ground wires.
6. Disconnect P6 connector from PC board.
7. Remove transformer from its current location and
relocate it on the far left side of the heater. 
8. Re-route  all  high-voltage  wires  and  ground wires
through the left jacket side of heater.
9. Re-install  P6  connector,  ground  wires  (SPG),
transformer, junction box, front door, and plug right
side with the left side’s grommet plug.
NOTE: 7/8" dia. holes not utilized on jacket and control
box  can  be used for  fireman  switch,  auxiliary  control
interface or power vent (D-2) wiring. 
The  Electronic Intermittent  Ignition  Device   automati-
cally lights the pilot and main burners upon a call for
heat. The heater is supplied with a dual-voltage trans-
former for 120 VAC or 240 VAC input power hookup.

CAUTION: Heater must be electrically grounded and
bonded. Bonding lug is provided loose  with the
heater.  Install bonding lug on lower right or left side
of  jacket  as  necessary  for  bonding  the  heater.
Mounting hole is provided on the jacket.
NOTE: Failure to ground the heater electrically
could affect the heater’s electronics.
WARNING:
Heaters are factory-wired for 240 VAC power sup-
ply.  DO NOT attempt to operate at 208 VAC.
NOTE: See page 42 for further instructions if using
a time clock/fireman’s switch.
NOTE: Lo NOx  heaters manufactured  November
2010 (serial number beginning with “1011”) and later
are  equipped  with  Advanced  Flame  Technology
(AFT) boards. Lo NOx heaters manufactured before
November 2010,  and all  atmospheric  heaters are
equipped with Digital PC boards.
