Frost Fighter IDF 350LPNG Installation - Operation/Maintenance Instructions And Parts List Download Page 10

SEQUENCE OF OPERATION

1-Flip toggle switch to either manual or thermostat position.
2-Red LED light on ignition controller will come on for 1 second
3-Burner fan motor will start, unit will pre-purge for 45 seconds
4-Spark ignitor energized for 4 seconds, gas solenoid valves will open during 4 second TFI ( trial 
for ignition)The unit has three trials for ignition before lockout. 
5-Burner lights, ignitor stops and flame current is sensed by ignition controller.
6-When heat exchanger reaches certain temperature ( temperature setting on fan switch) the fan 
switch will make and start supply fan.
7-When  unit  is  shut  off,  burner  will  shut  down  and  supply  fan  will  run  until  heat  exchanger 
temperature is below fan switch set point.

LP/NG TROUBLE SHOOTING GUIDE

*ALWAYS  CHECK  FOR  SUFFICIENT  POWER,  GAUGE  CORD,  POLARITY  AND  GAS 
PRESSURE .POWER AND GAS SUPPLY MUST ALWAYS BE SHUT OFF/DISCONNECTED 
BEFORE REMOVING OR REPLACING ANY COMPONENTS ON THE HEATER*

1-UNIT WILL NOT START

A- Check for 115 volts AC across terminals 1 and 2. If no voltage check power source.
B-  Check  for  power  across  terminals  2  and  3.  If  no  power,  inspect  toggle  switch  or 

thermostat, replace if faulty

C- Check the thermal overloads on burner supply fan motor. Reset by pushing the red 

button on motor housing.

D- Ensure proper connection to burner fan. If power is at connection, and neutral wire 

secure, replace burner motor.

2-RED LED LIGHT DOES NOT FLASH ON START UP

A- Check for power across terminals 2 and 4. If no power remove high limit cover and check 

for power on high limit. If no power there inspect air switch and tubing. Adjust and/or replace as 
necessary. If high limit powered on one side only, replace high limit.

B- Check power at 2 amp fuse. Replace if faulty.
C- Check across 120v side of transformer for power. On 24v side, should be 24v. If not 

replace transformer.

D- Check across 5 amp fuse for power. Replace if faulty.
E- Check L1 connection to terminal 4, ensure good connection.
F- Ensure proper ground at gas primary.
G- Bad controller, check LED for steady on or flashing codes.
H-If LED light stays on during pre-purge cycle, replace ignition controller.

3-BURNER WILL NOT IGNITE.

A- Always make sure gas supply pressure is 14” (½ lb) or less as over that amount could 

cause damage to manifold regulator.

B Check gas pressure at 1/8” tap on elbow of manifold. Ensure pressure is correct (1.2” for 

IDF200, 1.8” for IDF350 and 3.0” for IDF500). If no pressure there, remove cover and check for 24v 
across solenoid valve wires. If voltage present, replace solenoid valve.

C- If no voltage, at solenoid valve, check gas primary control to ensure wired and grounded 

properly. If wired properly, and still no voltage to solenoid  replace gas primary.

D- Remove the electrode assembly form burner housing. Shut off all manual gas valves 

then reset the unit. Install jumper wire between terminals 3 and 4. Lay electrode assembly across 
top of burner housing. Carefully check for spark across the ignition gap after 34 second pre-purge. 
If  no  spark,  check  for  120VAC  at  ignition  transformer.  If  power  there,  replace  transformer,  no 
power, replace gas primary. If spark is arcing at another point other tan tip of spark rod, ensure 
spark  rod  is  in  correct  position.  If  it  is  then  replace  spark  rod. After  test  remove  jumper  from 
terminals 3 and 4.
