Functional Description
.
shows the general system overview.
Combustion
The combustion system consists of a fully modulating forced-draft combustion air blower(s), a negative
pressure regulated gas valve(s), and a premix burner(s). On a call for humidity, the blower is energized
to purge the system. During this time the control software performs diagnostic checks of the safety
systems – the air proving switch (not shown) and the over-temperature switch, as well as the blowers. If
the air proving switch is open, the warning message "
" appears, and escalates to the fault
message "
" if three consecutive warnings occur. At the same time, if the over-temperature
switch is open, the fault message "
" appears. In addition, if any of the blowers fail
to operate during this time, the fault message "
" appears. When the functions of
the safety systems have been verified successfully, the gas valve(s) opens and the gas-air mixture is
pushed through the burner ports into the combustion chamber(s). The spark-igniter(s) is simultaneously
activated to ignite the gas-air mixture.
