SECTION 12: OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE
The heater is equipped with a dual direct spark
ignition system.
12.1 Sequence of Operation
1. Turn the thermostat up, the blower motor will
energize.
2. When the motor approaches nominal running
RPM, the pressure switches will close and acti-
vate the ignition module.
3. After a 45 second purge period, the ignition
module then opens the gas valve and energizes
both spark igniters. The light will be illuminated
at any time the gas valve is energized.
4. When both flames are established, the sparking
sequence ceases.
5. If both flames are not established during the
ignition sequence, the ignition module closes
the gas valve and purge begins. The module will
try two additional times for ignition with purge
between trials. If ignition is not established dur-
ing either of these trials, the module will lock
out.
6. After lock o
ut has occurred, the ignition module
must be re-set by turning down the thermostat
(disconnecting power) for five seconds, and
raising it again to the desired temperature.
7. When the thermostat is satisfied, all power to
the heater is shut off.
