ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE (ESD)
PRECAUTIONS PROCEDURE
1. Disconnect all power to the furnace. Multiple disconnects may be
required. DO NOT TOUCH THE CONTROL OR ANY WIRE
CONNECTED TO THE CONTROL PRIOR TO DISCHARGING
YOUR BODY’S ELECTROSTATIC CHARGE TO GROUND.
2. Firmly touch the clean, unpainted, metal surface of the furnace
chassis which is close to the control. Tools held in a person’s hand
during grounding will be satisfactorily discharged.
3. After touching the chassis, you may proceed to service the control
or connecting wires as long as you do nothing to recharge your
body with static electricity (for example; DO NOT move or shuffle
your feet, do not touch ungrounded objects, etc.).
4. If you touch ungrounded objects (and recharge your body with
static electricity), firmly touch a clean, unpainted metal surface of
the furnace again before touching control or wires.
5. Use this procedure for installed and uninstalled (ungrounded)
furnaces.
6. Before removing a new control from its container, discharge your
body’s electrostatic charge to ground to protect the control from
damage. If the control is to be installed in a furnace, follow items 1
through 4 before bringing the control or yourself in contact with the
furnace. Put all used and new controls into containers before
touching ungrounded objects.
7. An ESD service kit (available from commercial sources) may also
be used to prevent ESD damage.
WARNING
!
FIRE, INJURY OR DEATH HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could result in personal injury, death
and/or property damage.
When the furnace is installed in a residential garage, the burners and
burner ignition devices must be located at least 18 in. (457 mm) above
the floor. The furnace must be located or protected to avoid damage by
vehicles. When the furnace is installed in a public garage, airplane
hangar, or other building having a hazardous atmosphere, the furnace
must be installed in accordance with the current edition of NFPA
54/ANSI Z223.1 or CAN/CSA B149.2. See
18-IN. (457.2 mm)
MINIMUM TO BURNERS
CAUTION
!
FURNACE RELIABILITY HAZARD
Failure to follow this caution may result in unit component damage.
Electrostatic discharge can affect electronic components. Take
precautions during furnace installation and servicing to protect the
furnace electronic control. Precautions will prevent electrostatic
discharges from personnel and hand tools which are held during the
procedure. These precautions will help to avoid exposing the control to
electrostatic discharge by putting the furnace, the control, and the
person at the same electrostatic potential.
