R7248A Infrared Amplifier (red)—used with C701
5A Infrared (lead sulfide) Flame Detectors.
(1)
Complete step
���
b. above.
(2)
Remove the plug-in infrared amplifier.
(3)
Remove 3/4 in. (19.1 mm) of insulation
from each end of a 10 in. (254.0 mm)
length of insulated wire. Plug one end of
this wire into the tip jack on the front of the
programmer chassis (Fig. 14).
(4)
Reinstall the plug-in amplifier and close the
master switch. Wait until the timer stops.
(5)
Tap the free end of the wire against the
programmer chassis at a rapid frequency
(about two times a second) to simulate a
flame. Relay 2K should pull in and stay in
while a flame is simulated.
NOTE:
As soon as 2K pulls in:
— On an R4140G or M, relay 1K drops
out and the timer starts to run.
— On an R4 140L, relay 3K drops out
and safety shutdown occurs in about
one-half minute.
(6)
If relay 2K pulls in, the trouble is in the
flame detector or its circuitry outside the
programmer. Proceed to steps
���
and
���
.
(7)
If relay 2K does not pull in, set the timer
switch to the NORM position, let the timer
complete its revolution, and open the
master switch.
(8)
Replace the plug-in amplifier with a new
one of the same part number.
(9)
Wait a minute and reset the Lockout switch.
(10)
Set the timer switch to the TEST position.
(11)
Close the master switch to start the
programmer.
(12)
When the timer stops, repeat step (5).
(13)
If relay 2K pulls in, restore the programmer
to the operating condition as instructed in
step
���
below.
(14)
If relay 2K still does not pull in, replace the
programmer.
e.
R7249A Ultraviolet Amplifier (purple)—used with
C7027A, C7035A, or C7044A Minipeeper
Ultraviolet Flame Detectors. Follow the same
procedure as described in
���
c, above, for an
R7247A Rectification Amplifier, except substitute
a 123514B Flame Simulator in step (3).
���
Restore the programmer to operating condition as
follows:
a.
Let the timer complete its revolution and set the
timer switch to the NORM position.
b.
Open the master switch and remove the
programmer from the subbase.
c.
Reconnect the flame detector Ieadwire to
terminal F on the subbase.
d.
Reinstall the programmer on the subbase and
reset the Lockout switch.
���
Check the flame detector and its circuitry outside the
programmer as follows:
a.
Check the detector wiring for defects including:
—
incorrect connections.
—
wrong type or size of wire.
—
deteriorated wire.
—
open circuits.
—
short circuits.
—
leakage paths caused by moisture, soot, or
accumulated dirt.
b.
For a flame rod, make sure:
—
there is enough ground area.
—
the flame rod is properly located in the
flame.
—
temperature at the flame rod insulator is no
greater than 500
°
F (260
°
C).
—
ignition interference is not present (see
Ignition Interference Test in the Checkout
section).
c.
For all other detectors, clean the detector lens,
filter, viewing window, and inside of the sight pipe,
as applicable.
d.
For a C7012A,C,E or F Purple Peeper Ultraviolet
Flame Detector, replace the 113236 and 115330
Electron Tubes (unless the detector is a solid
state model).
e.
With the burner running, check the temperature
at the detector. If it exceeds the detector’s
maximum rated temperature:
—
add additional insulation between the wall
of the combustion chamber and the
detector,
—
add a shield or screen to reflect radiated
heat away from the detector, or
—
add cooling. (Refer to Sight Pipe Ventilation
in the detector Instructions.)
f.
Make sure that the flame adjustment is not too
lean.
g.
Make sure the detector is properly sighting the
flame.
h.
If necessary, resight or reposition the detector.
