DESCRIPTION
The SS1C is a mechanical vent system designed and listed for use with natural draft oil heating equipment. It is factory assem-
bled and wired. The SS1C automatically vents the flue gases from heating equipment to the outdoors. By combining outside air
with high-tech insulation, surrounding combustible materials and the Vent Hood exterior remain at safe temperatures. After each
burner cycle the SS1C will continue to operate in post-purge mode to purge the heater and vent of residual flue gases. A factory
post-purge time is set at 2 minutes and is adjustable up 16 minutes, see “Pre / Post-purge Settings” on page 5. The SS1C fea-
tures a safety system consisting of the integral UC1 Universal Control, a Fan Proving Switch and a High Limit temperature control.
These devices monitor the SS1C’s performance and will interrupt the main burner if a venting malfunction is detected.
APPLICATION TABLE
Verify that the total BTU/hr. input of the heating appliance(s) fall within the proper category listed below. All BTU/hr. capacity
ranges are based on a maximum of 15.2 equivalent meters (50 feet). To determine equivalent meters, add the total length of
straight vent pipe plus 3.1 meters (10 feet) for each 90 degree elbow and 1.5 meters (5 feet) for each 45 degree elbow. Vent
runs of over 4.5 linear meters (15 linear feet) should use an approved, insulated vent connector to prevent problems related to
sulfur condensation.
