REPAIR & REPLACEMENT

1.    After repairing any component:

  

a. check that electrical connections are correct and secure (see Figure 8),

  

b. remove any foreign material from enclosures,

  

c. install and secure all covers,

  

d. ensure that all fasteners are tight,

  

e. remove all foreign objects from heater, and

  

f.  ensure air exits through louvers and fan rotates counterclockwise when 

  

    viewed from rear of heater (see Figure 13).

C O R E

The heater core is vacuum charged and not field repairable. 

For core removal:

1.  Remove cabinet bottom and element enclosure cover. 

2.  Disconnect all wires entering element enclosure (see Figure 9).

3.  Slightly loosen all cabinet bolts shown in Figure 9, to prevent the core 

from binding.

4.  With an assistant supporting the weight of the core, remove the 3 core

 

mounting bolts. Carefully lower the core out of the cabinet (see Figure 

10).

5.  To return core to factory, use crate supplied with exchange core to protect

 

the element terminals and plate threads.

6.  To reinstall, lift the core up into cabinet while an assistant guides the

 

element wires into the element enclosure conduit.

7.  Position the core and tighten the 3 core mounting bolts. Tighten the

 

remaining cabinet bolts.

1.  Remove temperature high-limit assembly and clean the inside of the 

thermowell (see Figure 11). A clean thermowell will ensure good thermal

 contact.

2.  Use only a factory supplied temperature high-limit to ensure safe operation. 

(refer to the instructions that accompany the replacement Temperature   

High-Limit kit).

3.  Reinstall the temperature high-limit assembly with the snap ring and spring

 

into the thermowell without damaging the insulating tube. Secure in place

 

with the cotter pin (see Figure 12).

MOTOR, FAN & FAN GUARD

1.  Remove bolts holding the motor to the motor mount.  On units with a built

 

in thermostat, remove the bolts on the back of the thermostat enclosure.

2.  Remove  conduit  #1  located  between  motor  junction   box  and  control 

 

enclosure  by turning  it  in the direction  illustrated  (see Figure 13). 

 

Note  conduits #1 and #2 are not interchangeable and have left hand threads on

 

one end, this end is indicated by a machined groove.

3.  Remove the 2 piece fan guard assembly (see Figure 14).

4.  Lift the motor assembly off the motor mount.

5.  Before removing the fan, measure and record the location of the fan hub on the

 

motor shaft (see Figure 15). If difficult to remove, use a gear puller on the fan hub.

6.  To reassemble, place motor assembly onto motor mount and fasten the fan guard

 

to cabinet.

7.  Simultaneously engage and tighten both ends of conduit #1 into enclosures.

 

Leave a 1/16” to 3/16” (1.6 to 4.8 mm) gap between the motor and fan guard (see

 

Figure 16). Adjust conduit #2 to center the fan in the shroud.

8.  To ensure a minimum 5 thread engagement, threaded ends of conduits must

 

protrude a minimum of 1/16” (1.6mm) into enclosures. The groove on conduit #2

 

must not be more than 7/8” (22mm) from motor coupling (see Figure 13).

9.  Bolt motor to motor mount.  Manually spin the fan blade to ensure fan rotates freely.

10.  Air must exit through louvers and fan must rotate counterclockwise when viewed

 

from rear of heater (see Figure 13).
