5.6 INTERLOCK TESTS

The unit is equipped with two interlock circuits

called the Remote Interlock and Delayed Inter-

lock. Terminal connections for these circuits are

located in the I/O Box and are labeled REMOTE

INTL’K IN and DELAYED INTL’K IN. These

circuits can shut down the unit in the event that

an interlock is opened. These interlocks are

shipped from the factory jumped (closed).

However, each of these interlocks may be

utilized in the field as a remote stop and start, an

emergency cut-off, or to prove that a device such

as a pump gas booster, or louver is operational.

5.6.1 REMOTE INTERLOCK

1. Remove the cover from the I/O Box and

locate the REMOTE INTL’K IN terminals.

2. Start the unit in the manual mode at a valve

position between 25% and 30%.

3. If there is a jumper across the REMOTE

INTL’K IN terminals, remove one side of the

jumper. If the interlock is being controlled by

an external device, either open the interlock

via the external device or disconnect one of

the wires leading to the external device.

4. The unit should shut down and display

INTERLOCK OPEN.

5. Once the interlock connection is recon-

nected, the INTERLOCK OPEN message

should automatically clear and the unit

should resume running.

5.6.2 DELAYED INTERLOCK

1. Remove the cover from the I/O Box and

locate the DELAYED INTL’K IN terminals.

2. Start the unit in manual mode and fire at a

25% to 30% valve position.

3. If there is a jumper across the DELAYED

INTL’K IN terminals, remove one side of the

jumper. If the interlock is connected to a

proving switch of an external device, discon-

nect one of the wires leading to the proving

switch.

4. The unit should shut down and display

DELAYED INTERLOCK OPEN. The

FAULT

LED should be flashing.

5. Once the interlock connection is recon-

nected, depress the

CLEAR button. The

unit should start.


5.7 FLAME FAULT TEST

1. Place the

ON/OFF switch in the OFF

position.

2. Place the unit in the Manual Mode and set

the Air/Fuel Valve Position between 25%

and 30%.

3. Close the manual leak detection valve

located between the safety shut-off valve

and the differential regulator (see Fig. 5.4).

4. Start the unit.

5. The unit should shut down after reaching the

Ignition cycle and display FLAME LOSS

DURING IGN.

6. Open the valve previously closed in step 3

and depress the

CLEAR button.

7. Restart the unit and allow it to prove flame.

8. Once flame is proven, close the manual leak

detection valve located between the safety

shut-off valve and the differential regulator.

9. The unit should shut down and execute an

IGNITION RETRY cycle by performing the

following steps:

(a) The unit will execute a shutdown purge

cycle for a period of 15 seconds and

display WAIT FAULT PURGE.

(b) The unit will execute a 30 second re-

ignition delay and display WAIT RETRY

PAUSE.

(c) The unit will then execute a standard

ignition sequence and display WAIT

IGNITION RETRY.

10. Since the manual gas shutoff valve is still

closed, the unit will shut down and display

FLAME LOSS DURING IGNITION following

the IGNITION RETRY cycle.

10. Open the valve previously closed in step 8

and depress the

CLEAR button. The unit

should restart and fire.
