Step 5 Set the Maximum Firing Rate
Monitor the unit’s actual temperature rise by placing a
thermocouple in the unit’s inlet and a second in the
discharge, three duct diameters downstream of the
burner.
Send the unit to maximum fire by disconnecting and
isolating the proper wire on the Maxitrol amplifier
(Terminal #4 for Maxitrol 14, #3 for Maxitrol 44 as
shown in figure #44 and #45).

Step 4 Set the Low Fire Time Delay
Set the low fire time delay to 75% of its maximum
setting. See figure #44 or #45 for the location of the
time delay setting.
WARNING!
Do not set the burner maximum firing rate based
on gas pressure. It should be set based on the
unit’s designed temperature rise shown on the
direct gas label.

NOTE!
The low fire time delay must be set high enough
to provide at least 10 seconds of low fire while
the unit tries to light.
