If larger adjustments are required, change main burner orifices
following the recommendations of national and local codes.
NOTE
:
All other appliances that use the same meter must be
turned off when gas flow is measured at the meter.
Proceed as follows:
1. Turn off gas supply to unit.
2. Remove pipe plug on manifold (See Fig. 11) and connect
manometer. Turn on gas supply to unit.
3. Record number of seconds for gas meter test dial to make
one revolution.
4. Divide number of seconds in Step 3 into 3600 (number of
seconds in one hr).
5. Multiply result of Step 4 by the number of cubic feet (cu ft)
shown for one revolution of test dial to obtain cubic feet (cu
ft) of gas flow per hour.
6. Multiply result of Step 5 by Btu heating value of gas to
obtain total measured input in Btuh. Compare this value
with heating input shown in Table 5 (Consult the local gas
supplier if the heating value of gas is not known).
EXAMPLE: Assume that the size of test dial is 1 cu ft, one
revolution takes 32 sec and the heating value of the gas is 1050
Btu/ft
3
. Proceed as follows:
1. 32 sec to complete one revolution.
2. 3600
32 = 112.5.
3. 112.5 x 1 =112.5 ft
3
of gas flow/hr.
4. 112.5 x 1050 = 118,125 Btuh input.
If the desired gas input is 115,000 Btuh, only a minor change in the
manifold pressure is required.
Observe manifold pressure(s) and proceed as follows to adjust gas
input(s):
1. Remove regulator cover screw(s) over plastic adjustment
screw(s) on gas valve (see Fig. 13).
2. Turn the high stage plastic adjustment screw clockwise to
increase gas input and counterclockwise to decrease input
(see Fig. 13). Manifold pressure must be between 3.2 and
3.8 IN. W.C. for high stage.
3. Replace high stage regulator cover screw on gas valve (see
Fig. 13).
4. Turn the low stage plastic adjustment screw clockwise to in-
crease gas input and counterclockwise to decrease input (see
Fig. 13). Low stage manifold pressure must be between 1.4
and 2.0 IN. W.C.
NOTE
: Low stage manifold pressure must be adjusted after high
stage manifold pressure is already adjusted.
5. Replace low stage regulator cover screw(s) on gas valve
(see Fig. 13).
6. Turn off gas supply to unit. Remove manometer from pres-
sure tap and replace pipe plug on manifold (see Fig. 11).
Turn on gas and check for leaks
FIRE AND UNIT DAMAGE HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could result in personal
injury or death and/or property damage.
Unsafe operation of the unit may result if manifold pressure
is outside this range.
!
WARNING
Measure Manifold Pressure (Propane Units)
Refer to propane kit installation instructions for properly checking
gas input.
NOTE
: For installations below 2,000 ft (610 m), refer to the unit
rating plate for proper propane conversion kit. For installations
above 2,000 ft (610 m), contact your distributor for proper propane
conversion kit.
Check Burner Flame
With control access panel (see Fig. 20) removed, observe the unit
heating operation. Watch the burner flames to see if they are light
blue and soft in appearance, and that the flames are approximately
the same for each burner. Propane will have blue flame (See Fig.
12). Refer to the Maintenance section for information on burner
removal.
