OPTION BX1,

OVERHEAD DOOR

SWITCH

®

Description/Application

Although this overhead door is referred to as an option, it is a require-

ment for Reznor

®

makeup air systems installed in a "door air heater"

application (A.G.A. certified to ANSI Z83.17 or C.G.A. approved to

CAN 1-3.12).
The switch is a Honeywell Micro-Switch precision limit switch (P/N

124253). The function of the switch is to energize and interlock the heat-

ing unit when an outside overhead door reaches approximately 80% of

full open travel. The switch will de-energize the furnace when the over-

head door closes approximately 20%. The complete door switch includes

a limit switch electrically wired to the heater and a roller yoke for me-

chanical activation by a field-supplied trigger on the overhead door.
Installation should be done by a qualified agency in accordance with the

instructions that follow and in compliance with all codes and require-

ments of authorities having jurisdiction. The agency performing this work

assumes responsibility for this installation.

All electrical wiring and connections, including electrical grounding

MUST be in accordance with the National Electric Code ANSI/NFPA

No. 70 (latest edition) or, in Canada, with the Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1-C.S.A. Standard C22.1. In addition, the installation must comply with

local ordinances and applicable gas company requirements.

Installation Instructions

Before beginning installation, read both the switch manufacturer's instructions and the "LEFT" and "RIGHT" instructions below. Follow all instruc-

tions carefully. In all cases, disconnect both the electrical power and the gas supply from the heater during installation of the door switch.
The switch is tapped for a 1/2" threaded (field-supplied) conduit connection.

The electrical connection must be sealed and the switch positioned

so that moisture will not enter through the connection. See switch specifications and heater wiring diagram for electrical information.

Option BX1, Overhead Door Switch (P/N 124253)

For installation indoors on the LEFT side of an automatic
overhead door:

WITH DOOR IN CLOSED POSITION. . .

1.

Mount the switch and the field-supplied activation trigger in loca-

tions so that mechanical contact will be made when the overhead

door is approximately 80% open. Secure the switch through the front

using two #10 x 2" long sheetmetal screws or through the back using

two #10 x 32 x 2" long studs. Attach field-supplied conduit connec-

tion.

2.

Loosen the two screws on the front of the switch that retain the termi-

nal access cover. Remove the cover exposing four wire terminals.

Pull the appropriate gauge

(no smaller than 18 gauge

and no larger then 12

gauge) protected control

wire through the conduit

connection. Attach the

conduit. Connect the wires

to pressure terminals #3

and #4. Connect the

ground wire.

3.

Using a 9/64" allen

wrench, attach the roller

yoke in the position illus-

trated in Figure 1. The

field-supplied door activa-

tion trigger must mechani-

cally activate the rollers

during both the opening

and closing of the over-

head door.

For installation indoors on the RIGHT side of an automatic
overhead door:

WITH DOOR IN CLOSED POSITION. . .

1.

Mount the switch and the field-supplied activation trigger in loca-

tions os that mechanical contact twill be made when the overhead

door is approximately 80% open. Secure the switch through the front

using two #10 x 2" long sheetmetal screws or through the back using

two #10 x 32 x 2" long studs. Attach field-supplied conduit connec-

tion.

2.

Loosen the two screws on the front of the switch that retain the termi-

nal access cover. Remove the cover exposing four wire terminals.

Pull the appropriate gauge

(no smaller than 18 gauge

and no larger then 12

gauge) protected control

wire through the conduit

connection. Attach the

conduit. Connect the wires

to pressure terminals #1

and #2. Connect the

ground wire.

3.

Using a 9/64" allen

wrench, attach the roller

yoke in the position illus-

trated in Figure 2. The

field-supplied door activa-

tion trigger must mechani-

cally activate the rollers

during both the opening

and closing of the overhead

door.
