FAULT INDICATION

PROBABLE CAUSES

CORRECTIVE ACTION

REMOTE SETPT

SIGNAL FAULT

(continued)

2. Signal is not isolated (floating) if 4 to

20 mA.

3. Control Box signal type selection

switches not set for correct signal

type (voltage or current).

2. Check signal at source to ensure it is isolated.

3. Check DIP switch on PMC board to ensure it is set correctly for

the type of signal being sent. Check control signal type set in

Configuration Menu.

RESIDUAL

FLAME

1. SSOV not fully closed.

2. Defective Flame Detector

1. Check open/close indicator window of Safety Shut-Off Valve

(SSOV) and ensure that the SSOV is fully closed. If not fully

closed, replace the valve and or actuator.
Close gas shut-off valve downstream of SSOV. Install a

manometer or gauge in a gas test port between the SSOV and

the gas shut off valve. If a gas pressure reading is observed

replace the SSOV valve and or actuator.

2. Replace Flame Detector.

SSOV FAULT

DURING PURGE

See SSOV SWITCH OPEN

SSOV FAULT

DURING RUN

1. SSOV switch closed for 15 seconds

during run.

1. Replace or adjust microswitch in SSOV actuator. If fault

persists, replace actuator.

SSOV RELAY

FAILURE

1. SSOV relay failed on IGST board.

2. Floating Neutral.

3. Hot and Neutral reversed at SSOV.

1. Press CLEAR button and restart unit. If fault persists, replace

Ignition/Stepper (IGST) Board.

2. The Neutral and Earth Ground are not connected at the source

and therefore there is a voltage measured between the two.

Normally this measurement should be near zero or no more than

a few millivolts.

3. Check SSOV power wiring.

SSOV

SWITCH OPEN

1. Actuator not allowing for full closure of

gas valve

2. SSOV powered when it should not be

3. Defective Switch or Actuator

4. Incorrectly wired switch.

1. Observe operation of the Safety Shut-Off Valve (SSOV) through

indicator on the Valve actuator and ensure that the valve is fully

and not partially closing.

2. If the SSOV never closes, it may be powered continuously.

Close the gas supply and remove power from the unit. Refer

fault to qualified service personnel.

3. Remove the electrical cover from the SSOV and check switch

continuity. If the switch does not show continuity with the gas

valve closed, either adjust or replace the switch or actuator.

4. Ensure that the SSOV Proof of Closure switch is correctly wired.
