and controlling when voltage is sent to the burner. Make sure the jumper wire or the thermostat wires if
used do not come in contact with any metal. This may cause the burner to ground out. The burner is
controlled by the appliance. Once wiring is complete between burner and appliance, verify appliance is
controlling the burner’s on/off operation. When connecting the burner to the line voltage electrical supply,
utilize the knockout provided on the burner’s junction box.
INSPECTION OF LIMIT CONTROL SWITCHES
Warm air furnaces (gravity and forced air) should be equipped with an automatic temperature limit control
switch. Hot water boilers (forced or gravity) should be equipped with an automatic temperature limit control
switch. Steam or vapor boilers should be provided with means to guard against firing a dry boiler or one in
which the water is dangerously low.
INSTALLATION OF THERMOSTAT
The thermostat should be installed on an inside wall and should be located in the natural circulating path of
room air. Locations which would expose the thermostat to cold air, or drafts from windows, door, or
openings leading to the outside, or to air currents from cold or warm air registers, or where the natural
circulation of air is shut off such as behind doors, above or below mantels, shelves or in corners, should be
avoided. The thermostat should not be exposed to heat from nearby radiators, lamps, rays of the sun or
mounted on a wall near pipes, warm air ducts or chimney flue. Any hole in the plaster or panel through
which the thermostat wires pass should be sealed to prevent drafts. The maximum comfort to be obtained
from any automatic heating installation is dependent to a great extent upon the proper installation and
adjustment of the room thermostat.
The burner is equipped with its own 24 Vac transformer. Do not add any 24
Vac power consuming device to the 24 Vac control circuit of the burner, as it
could overload the transformer. Overloading the transformer will damage the
transformer.
Set the room thermostat “heat anticipator” for the total current draw of the 24
Vac burner operation circuit (HSG200 0.55 amps, HSG400 0.7 amps).
Label all wires prior to disconnection when servicing controls. Wiring errors
can cause improper and dangerous operation. Verify proper operation after
servicing.
If any of the original burner wiring must be replaced, it must be replaced
with #18 AWG 105
° C wire or equivalent.
On installations where an oil burner is being replaced with a gas burner, the
controls on the boiler or furnace will have to be checked for compatibility with
the gas burner. All controls should be checked to ensure that they operate
properly and that they are in good condition. In no case should any limit or
safety control be bypassed or wired in such a manner that it will result in
unsafe operation of the burner or appliance. If the controls on the appliance
are not compatible with the burner operation they should be replaced with the
proper controls.
