If for any reason, the temperat

160° F (71.1° C), the high temperat

v
e (i.e.
temperat
u
re sensor goes open circ
u
it) or if a s
u
rge in
gas press
u
re reaches the b
u
rner. Restarting of the
b
u
rner can only be accomplished after the limit has
cooled do
w
n and the reset b
u
tton on the s
w
itch has
been depressed. This s
w
itch is located on the blo

17.5.2 Pressure Switches
The lo
w
airflo
w
v
elocity press
u
re s
w
itch monitors the
airflo
w
(differential press
u
re) across the b
u
rner.
When the airflo
w
across the b
u
rner reaches the
proper
v
elocity (
v
ol
u
me) for comb
u
stion, the s
w
itch
closes. When the s
w
itch closes, it permits the flame
safeg
u
ard relay to begin ignition. This s
w
itch is
factory set at 0.32 in
w
c (0.8 mbar). The high
v
elocity
press
u
re s
w
itch
w
ill open if the airflo
w
across the
b
u
rner reaches its maxim
u
m allo
w
able limit. This
s
w
itch is factory set at 1.40 in
w
c (3.5 mbar). The
press
u
re s
w
itch is a safety de
v
ice,
w
hich cannot be
field-adj
u
sted or tampered

17.5.3 Gas Pressure Switches
Gas press
u
re s
w
itches are standard on certain
models (FM compliant gas trains abo
v
e 2,500 MBH
and XL compliant gas trains) and are also a
v
ailable
as an option on the others.
The f
u
nction of the gas press
u
re s
w
itches is to
protect against ins
u
fficient, lack of gas press
u
re and
excessi
v
e press
u
re in the system.
On the lo
w
gas press
u
re s
w
itch side, this s
w
itch
opens its internal s
w
itch
w
hich sh
u
ts the b
u
rner do
w
n
and pre
v
ents its operation d
u
e to ins
u
fficient gas
press
u
re.
On the high gas press
u
re s
w
itch side, its internal
s
w
itch
w
ill open, sh
u
tting do
w
n the b
u
rner d
u
e to
excessi
v
e gas press
u
re passing thro
u
gh the gas
train.
The settings of the gas press
u
re s
w
itches are field
adj
u
stable. The one monitoring the incoming gas
press
u
re is the lo
w
gas press
u
re s
w
itch. The lo
w
gas
press
u
re s
w
itch m
u
st be set to the minim
u
m req
u
ired
gas press
u
re as indicated on the data plate.
The high gas press
u
re s
w
itch m
u
st be set to 1 in
w
.c.
(2.5 mbar) abo
v
e high fire setting established d
u
ring
commissioning.
If either s
w
itch senses a press
u
re
w
hich is lo
w
er (lo
w
gas press
u
re s
w
itch) or higher (high gas press
u
re
s
w
itch) than its set point, then the s
w
itch
w
ill open
and lock o
u
t, sh
u
tting the b
u
rner do
w
n. The s
w
itch
w
ill ha
v
e to be reset man
u
ally, once the condition has
been corrected.
17.5.4 Flame Control
This de
v
ice
w
ill check for both pilot flame and main
flame
w
ithin the b
u

pilot flame is a
v
ailable, it
w
ill allo
w
the main gas
