SAFETY DEVICE TESTING
6-2
6.3 HIGH GAS PRESSURE TEST
To simulate a high gas pressure fault, refer to
Figure 6-1 and proceed as follows:
1. Remove the 1/8“ plug from the leak
detection ball valve shown in the upper
portion of Figure 6-1.
2. Install a 0 – 16” W .C. manometer (or W.C.
gauge) where the 1/8” plug was removed.
3. Slowly open the leak detection ball valve
4. Start the unit in Manual mode at a valve
position (firing rate) between 25 and 30%.
5. Slowly increase the gas pressure using the
adjustment screw on the SSOV Actuator
(see Figure 4-3).
6. The unit should shut down and display a
HIGH GAS PRESSURE
fault message
when the gas pressure exceeds 2.6” W.C.
The
FAULT
indicator should also start
flashing.
7. Reduce the gas pressure back to 1.8” W.C.
8. Press the
CLEAR
button on the Control Box
to clear the fault.
9. The fault message should clear and the
FAULT
indicator should go off. The unit
should restart.
10. Upon test completion, close the ball valve
and remove the manometer. Replace the
1/8“ plug removed in step 1.
6.4 LOW WATER LEVEL FAULT TEST
To simulate a low water level fault:
1. Set the
ON/OFF
switch to the
OFF
position
2. Close the water shut-off valves in the supply
and return piping to the unit.
3. Slowly open the drain valve on the rear of the
unit. If necessary the unit’s relief valve may
be opened to aid in draining.
4. Continue draining the unit until a
LOW
WATER LEVEL
fault message is displayed
and the
FAULT
indicator flashes.
5. Place the unit in the Manual Mode and raise
the valve position above 30%.
6. Set the
ON/OFF
switch to the
ON
position.
The
READY
light should remain off and the
unit should not start. If the unit does start,
shut the unit off immediately and refer fault to
qualified service personnel.
7. Close the drain and pressure relief valve
used in draining the unit.
8. Open the water shut-off valve in the return
piping to the unit.
9. Open the water supply shut-off valve to the
unit to refill.
10.After the shell is full, press the
LOW WATER
LEVEL RESET
button to reset the low water
cutoff.
11.Press the
CLEAR
button to reset the
FAULT
LED and clear the displayed error message.
12.Set the
ON/OFF
switch to the
ON
position.
The unit is now ready for operation.
6.5 WATER TEMPERATURE FAULT
TEST
A high water temperature fault is simulated by
adjusting the automatic over-temperature switch.
This switch is accessible from the left side of the
unit as shown in Figure 6-2.
1. Start the unit in the normal operating mode.
Allow the unit to stabilize at its setpoint.
2. Lower the adjustable over-temperature
switch setting to match the displayed
OUTLET TEMPERATURE.
3. Once the adjustable over-temperature switch
setting is approximately at, or just below, the
actual outlet water temperature, the unit
should shut down. The FAULT indicator
should start flashing and a HIGH WATER
TEMP SWITCH OPEN fault message should
be displayed. It should not be possible to
restart the unit.
4. Reset the adjustable over-temperature switch
to its original setting.
5. The unit should start once the adjustable
temperature limit switch setting is above the
actual outlet water temperature.
