Fuel Types and Pressures

Natural Gas — The 48TC unit is factory--equipped for use

with Natural Gas fuel at elevation under 2000 ft (610 m).

See section Orifice Replacement for information in

modifying this unit for installation at elevations above

2000 ft (610 m).

Gas line pressure entering the unit’s main gas valve must

be within specified ranges. Adjust unit gas regulator valve

as required or consult local gas utility.

Liquid Propane — Accessory packages are available for

field--installation that will convert the 48TC unit (except

low NO

x

model) to operate with Liquid Propane (LP)

fuels. These kits include new orifice spuds, new springs

for gas valves and a supply line low pressure switch. See

section on Orifice Replacement for details on orifice size

selections.

Low NO

x

models include specially--sized orifices and use

of different flue flow limits and tube baffles. Because of

these extra features, conversion of these models to LP is

not recommended.

Fuel line pressure entering unit gas valve must remain

within specified range.

Supply Pressure Switch — The LP conversion kit includes

a supply low pressure switch. The switch contacts (from

terminal C to terminal NO) will open the gas valve power

whenever the supply line pressure drops below the

setpoint. See Fig. 29 and Fig. 30. If the low pressure

remains open for 15 minutes during a call for heat, the

IGC circuit will initiate a Ignition Fault (5 flashes)

lockout. Reset of the low pressure switch is automatic on

rise in supply line pressure. Reset of the IGC requires a

recycle of unit power after the low pressure switch has

closed.
