BASIC OPERATION

The  water  heaters  covered  in  this  manual  have  a  helical  coil 

shaped heat exchanger that is submerged in the storage tank. 

The  water  heater’s  Main  Burner  is  a  radial  design  burner,  it 

is  mounted  on  the  top  and  fires  downward  through  the  heat 

exchanger. This is a forced draft burner; hot burning gases are 

forced  through  the  heat  exchanger  under  pressure  and  exit 

through the exhaust/vent connection located at the bottom of the 

water heater. See Figure 1 and Figure 2.

FEATURES AND COMPONENTS

MODULATION

The  water  heaters  covered  by  this  manual  are  capable  of 

modulating  their  firing  rate.  The  CCB  monitors  the  water 

temperature in the tank and regulates the firing rate to achieve 

the  target  temperature  setpoint.  The  firing  rate  is  dictated  by 

the hot water draw, proximity to the tank temperature setpoint, 

and various other temperature limitations. Periodically, when the 

heater is in modulation mode,  the CCB will increase the blower 

speed for a short period of time to clear out any condensation 

that  has  accumulated  in  the  heat  exchanger  then  decreases 

the blower speed back to the modulating firing rate required to 

maintain the desired tank temperature setpoint. This ramping up 

and down of the blower speed is considered normal operation of 

the water heater.

Spark Igniter

The control system energizes the spark ignition control with 120 

VAC  during  the  ignition  cycle.  The  spark  ignition  control  then 

sends a high-voltage current to the spark igniter which in turn 

ignites the main burner air/gas mixture.

Flame Sensor

The control system also monitors the flame sensor to confirm 

a flame is present at the Main Burner. If a flame is not verified 

during the ignition trial period (3-5 seconds) the control system 

will  immediately  de-energize  the  24  Volt  Gas  Valve.  See  the 

Sequence Of Operation Flow Chart on page 57.
