Model 201GAS burner — Instruction manual

Carlin part number MN201GAS Rev. 03/14/11

– 11 –

Where appliance instructions differ from this manual, follow the appliance instructions.

4. Check sytem • start-up burner/appliance

Inspect/check system

Before starting the burner and appliance, verify the system has been installed
as directed by this manual and the appliance instructions.

Check gas piping for leaks

Disconnect the burner from the gas supply line if gas line

test pressure will exceed 14 inches w.c. Exposing the burner
combination gas valve to pressure higher than 14 inches w.c.
can damage the valve seat, resulting in potentially unsafe
operation.

You can usually test the gas piping by allowing the line to fill with gas to
main regulator outlet pressure.
1. Shut off gas flow to all equipment connected to the meter.
2. If test pressure will be less than 14 inches w.c., turn the burner com-

bination gas valve knob to OFF. If test pressure will be higher than 14
inches, remove the burner from the gas line by shutting off the main
manual gas valve installed near the burner (per Figure 7, page 9) and
disconnecting the ground joint union. See warning above.

3. Watch the gas meter dial. For a one half cubic foot per revolution dial,

there should be no movement of the dial for at least 5 minutes. For
larger volumes per revolution, increase this time proportionately.

4. If you detect a gas leak, locate the leak with a soap suds mixture and

repair it. Then test the system for leaks again.

Do not test for leaks with an open flame. And do not use

oxygen as a test gas. Either of these could cause an explo-
sion, resulting in severe personal injury, death or substantial
property damage.

Verify flame failure Lockout of 60200FR control

1. Install a hose barb fitting in the combination gas valve outlet pressure

tap and connect with a hose to a U-tube manometer.

2. Close the main manual gas valve and turn the combination gas valve

knob to ON.

3. Turn on power to appliance and set appliance limit(s) to call for heat.
4. Burner motor will start. The 60200FR will run for its prepurge timing,

then start the ignitor. Approximately one second later, the combination
gas valve will open. (The manometer should show almost no pressure,
because the main manual gas valve is closed.)

5. After the Trial for Ignition Period, the 60200FR will lockout and turn on

the red LED. The ignitor will shut off and the gas valve will close. Turn
off power and set controls to stop call for heat.

6. If Lockout does not occur, replace the 60200FR control.

Inspect/check system

Before starting the burner and appliance, verify the system has been installed
as directed by this manual and the appliance instructions.

Do not start the burner if you smell gas or if there may be gas

present in the appliance combustion chamber, appliance or
the vent system. An explosion could occur, causing severe
personal injury, death or substantial property damage.

During initial start-up, you must be constantly alert for

emergency conditions such as fuel leaks, electrical malfunc-
tions, etc. Familiarize yourself with the location of manual
shutoff valves and switches so you can quickly use them if
needed.

If the burner fails to ignite, NEVER attempt to manually bypass

the normal sequence of the control, which provides purging
of the combustion chamber.

Figure 9 Air band adjustment

Bleed gas line

Purge all air from the gas line. Purge to outside of the building, NEVER into
the appliance or burner.

Leak test near-burner gas piping

If piping near burner has not already been pressure tested, open main
manual gas valve on supply to burner and smell around area for any signs of
gas. Apply a soap suds mixture to all gas piping joints near burner and check
for any leaks. If any leaks appear, repair before proceeding and retest.

Set burner air band

See Figure 9. Loosen air band locking screw. Then rotate band until it is open
to the setting given in Table 1, page 7. Tighten air band locking screw.
The Table 1 setting will probably be satisfactory without change. If the
combustion test indicates a need for more or less air, however, you will
have to adjust the band accordingly.

Check burner and primary control

Inspect burner thoroughly. Verify that hinged cover gasket is closed and
screw is tight. Verify all wiring is in place and all components are secure
and in position.
