Checking the polarity
8
The oil burners used on the furnaces have solid state control systems
that make them sensitive to the proper connections of the hot and
neutral power lines. The controls will be damaged if the two lines are
reversed.
1.
Set your voltmeter to line voltage;
2. Place one prong on your grounded electric entry box and one
prong on the black wire;
3. Read the voltage;
4. If the voltage is zero, check the white wire. If line voltage shows.
Reverse the 115-volt leads entering the furnace junction box;
5. If you do not have a voltmeter, use a pilot light.
FIGURE 2.1
Checking the Nozzle
The burner is equipped with the appropriate nozzle. However, if
another size or a replacement nozzle is required, use the
manufacturer’s recommended spray angle and type as shown in
Tables 3.1 to 3.4, p. 15 to 18. Note that all nozzle sizes are based on
a pump pressure of 100 psi.
Always select nozzle sizes by working back from the desired flow rate
at operating pressure, and not the nozzle marking.
Checking air and turbulator settings
Before starting the burner for the first time, adjust the air and turbulator
settings to those listed in the Tables 3.1 to 3.4, p. 15 to 18. Once the
burner becomes operational, final adjustment will be necessary.
Checking the fuel supply system
Fuel Specifications
Before starting the burner, be sure that the fuel tank is filled with clean
oil.
IMPORTANT
When using nozzle sizes of less than 0.75 USGPH, the
Installation Code for oil burning equipment requires the
installation of a 10 micron (or finer) filter in the fuel oil
line. ICP requires that this practice be followed in order
to keep the lifetime heat exchanger warranty intact.
WARNING
Fire and explosion hazard.
Use only approved heating type oil in this furnace.
DO NOT USE waste oil, used motor oil, gasoline or
kerosene.
Use of these will result in property damage injury or
death.
NOTE
: You may notice a slight odour the first time your furnace is
operated. This will soon disappear. It is only the oil used on certain
parts during manufacturing.
1.8) BLOCKED VENT SHUT-OFF (BVSO
)
For chimney venting
WARNING
It is imperative that this device be installed by a
qualified agency.
This device is designed to detect the insufficient evacuation of
combustion gases in the event of a vent blockage. In such a case the
thermal switch will shut down the oil burner. The device will then need
to be restarted MANUALLY.
Refer to the wiring diagrams and the detailed instructions supplied
with the BVSO for the installation and wiring procedures. The length of
wires supplied with the unit is such that the safety device must be
installed between the flue outlet of the appliance and the draft
regulator, as indicated in the instructions.
It is further imperative that the BVSO be maintained annually. For
more details refer to the instructions supplied with the device itself, as
well as Section 3 of this Manual.
CAUTION
A positive pressure venting system (Sealed Combustion
System or Direct Vent)
MUST NOT
use the BVSO. Follow the
instructions supplied with the venting system.
1.9) INSTALLING ACCESSORIES
WARNING
Electrical shock hazard.
Turn OFF electric power at fuse box or service
panel before making any electrical connections and
ensure a proper ground connection is made before
connecting line voltage.
Failure to do so could result in bodily injury or
death, property damage.

NOTE
: Use No.1 or No. 2 Heating Oil (ASTM D396) or in Canada
use No.1 or No. 2 Furnace Oil.
