8. Reinstall the ignitor-injector in the burner
plate. Torque to 15 ft-lbs. Do not over 
tighten. 
9. Connect the staged ignition assembly to the
gas injector tube of the ignitor-injector by 
securing the compression nut to the elbow 
of the staged ignition assembly. 
10. Reconnect the ignitor-injector cable.
11. Reinstall the side and top panels on the unit. 
 
7.3 FLAME DETECTOR
The flame detector (part no. 66006) is located 
on the burner plate at the top of the unit (see 
Figures 7-1 and 7-2). The flame detector may be 
hot. Allow the unit to cool sufficiently before 
removing the flame detector. 
To inspect or replace the flame detector:
1. Set
the ON/OFF switch on the control panel,
to the OFF position. Disconnect AC power 
from the unit. 
2. Remove the side and top panels from the
unit.
3. Disconnect the flame detector lead wire.
4. Remove the two (2) screws securing the
flame detector to the plate (Figure 7-2 on 
previous page). The flame detector is 
secured to the burner plate with one (1) #10-
32 screw and one (1) #8-32 screw. 
5. Remove the flame detector and gasket from
the burner plate.
 
 
6. Thoroughly inspect the flame detector. If
eroded, the detector should be replaced. 
Otherwise clean the detector with a fine 
emery cloth. 
7. Reinstall the flame detector and flame
detector gasket.
8. Reconnect the flame detector lead wire.
9. Reinstall the side and top panels on the unit.
7.4 COMBUSTION CALIBRATION
Combustion settings must be checked at the 
intervals shown in Table 7-1 as part of the 
maintenance requirements. Refer to Chapter 4 
for combustion calibration instructions. 
7.5 SAFETY DEVICE TESTING
Systematic and thorough tests of the operating 
and safety devices should be performed to 
ensure that they are operating as designed. 
Certain code requirements, such as ASME 
CSD-1, require that these tests be performed on 
a scheduled basis. Test schedules must 
conform to local jurisdictions. The results of the 
tests should be recorded in a log book. See 
Chapter 6-Safety Device Testing Procedures. 
7.6 BURNER ASSEMBLY INSPECTION
The burner assembly (part no. 24012) is located 
at the top of the unit's heat exchanger. The 
burner assembly may be hot. Therefore, allow 
the unit to cool sufficiently before removing the 
burner assembly. It should be noted that the 
complete burner assembly also includes the 
blower and air/fuel valve assemblies for the unit. 
The following parts will be required for 
reassembly after burner inspection: 
Part No.
