Indirect Gas-Fired Heat Modules

®

Each ventilating unit containing a furnace or a pair of
furnaces will have a furnace control center located on
the furnace vest plate. The control center receives high
voltage AC from the main unit control center and in
most cases, also receives low voltage control signals
(call for heat) from the main unit control center. In all
cases, see the unit-specific wiring schematic located
inside the main control center door.

1. Microprocessor (if present) senses low temperature

on temperature sensor, sends 10 VDC signal to
signal input converter.

2. Input converter changes analog signal to a form that

can be read by the FX controller and sends the signal
to the FX controller (call for heat).

3. FX controller receives call for heat, activates

modulating valve and the ignition controller.

4. Ignition controller receives call for heat from FX

controller, sends spark to igniter and activates the
combination valve. It looks for verification that the
combustion blower is running.

5. Flame sensor detects flame and ignition controller

shuts off igniter.

Typical Furnace Control Logic

In all cases, refer to the unit-specific wiring diagram
located on the unit control center door.

This illustration is only for a typical 4:1 turndown
electronic modulation configuration

If there is no DDC, the sensor

is connected to the FX.
