c. Run furnace for 3 minutes.
d. Measure time (in sec) for gas meter to complete one revolution
and note reading. The 2 or 5 cubic feet dial provides a more
accurate measurement of gas flow.
for cubic ft. of gas per hr.
f. Multiply gas rate cu ft./hr by heating value (BTUh/cu ft.) to
obtain input rate.
g. If clocked rate does not match required input from Step 1,
increase manifold pressure to increase input or decrease manifold
pressure to decrease input. Repeat steps b through e until correct
input is achieved. Re-install regulator seal cap on gas valve.
3. Restore furnace to normal operating condition.
a. Turn gas valve ON/OFF switch to OFF.
b. Remove water column manometer or similar device from
manifold pressure tap.
c. Tighten set screw on manifold tower pressure tap with 3/32-in.
hex wrench, or if 1/8-in. NPT plug was removed, apply pipe
dope sparingly to end of plug and reinstall in the gas valve.
d. Turn gas valve ON/OFF switch to ON.
e. Check for gas leaks and verify furnace operation.
Adjust Temperature Rise
NOTE:
Blower door must be installed when taking temperature rise
reading. Leaving blower door off will result in incorrect temperature
measurements, due to possible changes in duct static pressure and
airflow.
This furnace must operate within the temperature rise ranges specified
on the furnace rating plate. Determine the air temperature as follows:
1. Place duct thermometers in return and supply ducts as close to
furnace as possible. Be sure thermometers do not “see” heat
exchangers so that radiant heat does not affect thermometer
readings. This is particularly important with straight run ducts.
2. When thermometer readings stabilize, subtract return-air
temperature from supply-air temperature to determine temperature
rise.
If the temperature rise is outside this range, check the following:
3. Gas input rate.
4. Derate for altitude applicable.
5. Return and supply ducts for excessive restrictions causing static
pressures greater than 0.50-in. w.c. (125 Pa)
6. Adjust temperature rise by adjusting blower speed. Reference
- Air Delivery for available heating airflow ranges.
NOTICE
!
For 40,000 BTUH models through 120,000 BTUH models:
DO NOT
set manifold pressure less than 2.8-in. w.c. (697 Pa) or more than 3.8 in.
w.c. (947 Pa) for natural gas. If required manifold pressure is outside
this range, change main burner orifices to obtain manifold pressure in
this range.
