Figure 6-1: Low & High Gas Pressure Testing
6.3 PROPANE LOW GAS PRESSURE FAULT TEST
Refer to Figure 6-1 and ensure that the leak detection ball valve located at the high gas
pressure switch is closed.
1. Ensure that the Fuel Selector Switch (Figure 6-2) is set to the PROPANE position.
2. Remove the 1/4“ plug from the ball valve at the propane low gas pressure switch shown in
the upper-left portion of Figure 6-1.
3. Install a 0 – 16 “ W.C. manometer or a W.C. gauge where the 1/4" plug was removed.
4. Slowly open the ball valve near the propane low gas pressure switch.
5. Place the unit in Manual Mode and adjust the valve position to 34%.
6. While the unit is firing, slowly close the external manual gas shut-off valve.
7. The unit should shut down and display a
LOW GAS PRESSURE
fault message at
approximately 8.5” W.C. The
FAULT
indicator should also start flashing.
8. Fully open the external manual gas shut-off valve and press the
CLEAR
button on the
Control Box.
9. The fault message should clear and the
FAULT
indicator should go off. The unit should
restart.
10. Upon test completion, close the ball valve and remove the manometer. Replace the 1/4“
plug removed in step 2.
