FAULT INDICATION

PROBABLE CAUSES

CORRECTIVE ACTION

AIRFLOW FAULT

DURING IGNITION

1. Blower stopped running due to thermal

or current overload

2. Blocked Blower inlet or inlet ductwork

3. Blocked Blower proof switch

4. Blocked blocked-air inlet switch

5. Defective Blower proof switch



6. Defective blocked-air inlet switch



7. Loose temperature transmitter to

VFD’s analog input wire connection

8. Loose temperature sensor to

temperature transmitter wire
connection.

9. Defective temperature transmitter

10. Defective temperature sensor

11. Loose wire connection between the 4-

20 mA signal from I/O box to VFD
analog input

12. Defective I/O box

13. Wrong 4-20 mA output selection on

the control box

14. Defective air-fuel valve potentiometer

15. Defective or missing VFD’s logic stick

16. Defective program on the logic stick or

Defective VFD.

1. Check combustion blower for signs of excessive heat or high

current drain that may trip thermal or current overload devices.

2. Inspect the inlet to the combustion blower including any ductwork

leading up to the combustion blower for signs of blockage.

3. Remove the Blower proof switch and inspect for signs of

blockage, clean or replace as necessary.

4. Remove the blocked-air inlet switch and inspect for signs of

blockage, clean or replace as necessary.

5. Measure the Blower proof switch for continuity with the

combustion blower running. If there is an erratic resistance
reading or the resistance reading is greater than zero ohms,
replace the switch.

6. Measure the blocked-air inlet switch for continuity with the

combustion blower running. If there is an erratic resistance
reading or the resistance reading is greater than zero ohms,
replace the switch.

7. Check the actual inlet air temperature and measure voltage at

temperature transmitter and VFD analog input. Verify that the
voltage conforms to Table 8-3 for the inlet air temperature.

8. Refer to CORRECTIVE ACTION 7 and verify that the resistance

conforms to Table 8-3.

9. See CORRECTIVE ACTION 7.

10. See CORRECTIVE ACTION 8.

11. Measure amperage at the I/O box output and VFD analog input,

4mA equates to 0% fire rate and 20 mA equates to 100% fire rate

12. See CORRECTIVE ACTION 11.

13. Check C-More configuration menu, mA OUT – Fire Rate should

be selected

14. Check air fuel valve position at 0%, 50% and 100% fire rates, the

position on the c-more barograph should match the valve

15. Confirm that the logic stick is securely mounted on the VFD.

16.Check the following VFD parameters: Max Hz = 67, Min Hz = 0,

parameter 59 & 60 should be set
