2.
Once the correct gas inlet pressure has been established, see
Table 17, turn the gas valve to OFF and turn the electrical supply
switch to OFF; then remove the flexible tubing from the gas valve
pressure tap and tighten the pressure tap plug using the 3/32” (2.4
mm) hex head wrench.
3.
Turn the electrical and gas supplies back on, and with the burners
in operation, check for gas leakage around the gas valve pressure
port for leakage using an approved non-corrosive gas leak detec-
tion fluid, or other non-flammable leak detection methods.
Read the manifold gas pressure
Connect the positive side of the manometer to the OUT P Tap on the
gas valve. Do not connect any tubing to the negative side of the
manometer, as it will reference atmospheric pressure. Refer to Figures
37 and 38 for connection details.
This gas valve has separate regulator adjustment screws for high fire
and low fire, as shown in Figure 37. The procedure below is used to
adjust either the high fire manifold pressure or the low fire manifold
pressure.
1.
Refer to Figure 37 for location of pressure regulator adjustment cap
and adjustment screws on main gas valve.
2.
Turn gas and electrical supplies on and follow the operating instruc-
tions to place the unit back in operation.
3.
Place jumper wire from W1 to W2 to R on the furnace control board
for the furnace to operate HIGH fire. Once correct manifold pres-
sure is set (HI), remove jumper from W2 for the furnace to operate
on low fire. Set the manifold pressure (LO) to correct manifold pres-
sure.
4. After the manifold pressure has been adjusted, re-calculate the fur-
nace input to make sure you have not exceeded the specified input
on the rating plate. Refer to “CALCULATING THE FURNACE
INPUT (NATURAL GAS)”.
5.
Once the correct BTU (kW) input has been established, turn the
gas valve to OFF and turn the electrical supply switch to OFF; then
remove the flexible tubing from the gas valve pressure tap and
tighten the pressure tap plug using the 3/32” (2.4 mm) hex head
wrench.
6.
Turn the electrical and gas supplies back on, and with the burners
in operation, check for gas leakage around the gas valve pressure
port for leakage using an approved non-corrosive gas leak detec-
tion fluid, or other non-flammable leak detection methods.
ADJUSTMENT OF TEMPERATURE RISE
IMPORTANT
The inlet gas pressure operating range table specifies what the mini-
mum and maximum gas line pressures must be for the furnace to
operate safely. The gas line pressure MUST BE a minimum of:
•
7” w.c. (1.74 kPA) for Natural Gas
•
11” w.c. (2.74 kPA) for Propane (LP) Gas
in order to obtain the BTU input specified on the rating plate and/or
the nominal manifold pressure specified in these instructions and on
the rating plate.
IMPORTANT
The cap for the pressure regulator must be removed entirely to gain
access to the adjustment screw. Loosening or tightening the cap does
not adjust the flow of gas.
NOTICE
The regulated outlet pressure has been calibrated at the factory.
Additional pressure adjustment should not be necessary. If adjust-
ment is necessary, set to the following specifications. After adjust-
ment, check for gas leakage.
NOTICE
Gas manifold pressure must be set on high fire before adjusting low
fire pressure.

IMPORTANT
If gas valve regulator is turned in (clockwise), manifold pressure is
increased. If screw is turned out (counterclockwise), manifold pres-
sure will decrease.

DANGER
The temperature rise, or temperature difference between the return
air and the supply (heated) air from the furnace, must be within the
range shown on the furnace rating plate and within the application
limitations shown in Table 7 “RATINGS & PHYSICAL / ELECTRICAL
DATA”.
The supply air temperature cannot exceed the “Maximum Supply
Air Temperature” specified in these instructions and on the furnace
rating plate. Under NO circumstances can the furnace be allowed to
operate above the Maximum Supply Air Temperature. Operating the
furnace above the Maximum Supply Air Temperature will cause pre-
mature heat exchanger failure, high levels of Carbon Monoxide, a fire
hazard, personal injury, property damage, and/or death.
