Service And Maintenance Suggestions - Empire Heating Systems FAW55IPXLP-1 Instructions D'installation Et Manuel Du Propriétaire

SERVICE & MAINTENANCE SUGGESTIONS
GENERAL: All furnaces have been fire-tested to check for proper
operation. This includes, main burner flame, pilot flame, fan
operation, fan control, limit control and automatic valve operation.
If the furnace fails to function on initial installation, it is advisable to
re-check the following:
1. 115 volts to the junction box.
2. Inlet gas pressure.
3. The 24 volt system.
4. Type of gas being used and that shown on the rating label.
The Service Department at Empire Comfort Systems, Inc. may be
contacted to assist in servicing furnace.
Servicing the Pilot and Main Burners, Pilot orifice, and Main
Burner orifices: Disconnect the gas supply at the inlet to the
control valve. Then remove the burner door to which the above
components are attached.
Servicing the Fan Motor: The upper front panel, the shroud
surrounding the fan blade and fan blade must be removed. See
"Oiling the Motor" paragraph on page 7.
S8600H INTERMITTENT IGNITION MODULE SPECIFICATIONS

CHECKOUT
Check out the gas control system:
1. At initial installation of the appliance.
2. As part of regular maintenance procedures.
3. As the first step in troubleshooting.
4. Any time work is done on the system.

CALL SERVICEMAN
STEP 1: Perform Visual Inspection.
A. With power off, make sure all wiring connections are clean and
tight.
B. Turn on power to appliance and ignition module.
C. Open manual shutoff valves in the gas line to the appliance.
D. Do gas leak test ahead of gas control if piping has been disturbed.
GAS LEAK TEST: Paint pipe joints with rich soap and water
solution. Bubbles indicate gas leak. Tighten joints to stop leak.
STEP 2: Review Normal Operating Sequence and Module
Specifications.
STEP 3: Reset the Module.
A. Turn the control valve to "OFF".
B. Wait one minute.
As you do Steps 4 and 5, watch for points where operation
deviates from normal. Refer to Troubleshooting Chart to correct
problem.
STEP 4: Check Safety Lockout Operation.
A. Turn gas supply off.
B. Watch for spark at pilot burner.
C. Time length of spark operation. Maximum spark time is 90
seconds.
D. Open manual gas cock and make sure no gas is flowing to pilot
or main burner.
E. Set thermostat below room temperature and wait one minute
before continuing.
STEP 5: Check Normal Operation.
A. Turn the control valve to call for heat.
B. Make sure pilot lights smoothly when gas reaches the pilot
burner.
C. Make sure main burner lights smoothly without flashback. Make
sure burner operates smoothly without floating or lifting.
D. If gas line has been disturbed, complete gas leak test.
GAS LEAK TEST: Paint gas control gasket edges and all pipe
connections downstream of gas control, including pilot tubing
connections, with rich soap and water solution. Bubbles indicate
gas leaks. Tighten joints and screws or replace component to
stop gas leak.
E. Turn the control valve off. Make sure main burner and pilot
flames go out.
OPERATION
Module operation can be conveniently divided into two phases for
S8600h. The phases are trial for ignition and main burner operation.
TRIAL FOR IGNITION
Pilot Ignition
Following call for heat (system start on S8600h), the module
energizes the first main valve operator. The first main valve opens,
which allows gas to flow to the pilot burner. At the same time, the
electronic spark generator in the module produces a 13,000 volt
spark pulse output (at 25 pf load). The voltage generates a spark
at the igniter-sensor that lights the pilot.
