b. When installed with a heat pump, furnace control CPU
automatically holds blower off time to 22 sec during HSI
ignitor on period. After 17 sec of HSI ignitor on period,
a trial-for-ignition sequence occurs as described above
for gas heating. After flame is proved and without
blower on delay, blower motor BLWM then operates on
high-gas-heat speed during defrost. For both single-
speed and 2-speed heat pumps, defrost mode is in
high-gas heat only.
c. When furnace control R to W/W1 circuit is opened,
furnace control CPU begins normal inducer post-purge
period, and blower motor BLWM remains on for blower
off delay period. If R-G circuit remains closed, blower
motor BLWM reverts to continuous operation.
C. Start-Up Procedures
1. Component test—The furnace features a component test
system to help diagnose a system problem in case of
component failure. To initiate component test procedure,
ensure that there are no thermostat inputs to control and that
all time delays have expired. Short TWIN/TEST terminal to
ground or C
OM
for 1 to 4 sec. See Fig. 10 for terminal
locations.
NOTE: The component test feature will not operate if control is
receiving any thermostat signals and until all time delays have
expired.
The component test sequence is as follows:
a. The furnace control checks itself, operates inducer motor
on low speed for 7 sec and on high speed for 7 sec, then
stops.
b. The hot surface ignitor is then energized for 15 sec, then
de-energized.
c. The blower motor operates on low-gas-heat/heat pump
low-heat/low-cool/continuous fan speed for 7 sec, then
stops.
d. The blower motor operates on high-gas-heat speed for 7
sec, then stops. The gas valve and humidifier terminal
HUM are not energized for safety reasons.
NOTE: The EAC terminals are energized when blower is ener-
gized.
e. The blower operates on heat pump high-heat/high-cool
speed for 7 sec, then stops.
2. After all connections have been made, purge gas lines and
check for leaks.
WARNING: Never purge a line into a combustion
chamber. Never use matches, candles, flame, or other
sources of ignition to check for gas leakage. Use a
soap-and-water solution to check for gas leaks. A failure
to follow this warning could result in fire, explosion,
personal injury, or death.
3. To operate furnace, follow procedures on operating instruc-
tion label attached to furnace.
4. With furnace operating, set thermostat below room tem-
perature and observe that furnace goes off. Set thermostat
above room temperature and observe that furnace restarts.
D. Adjustments
1. Set gas input rate.
Furnace gas input rate on rating plate is for installations at
altitudes up to 2000 ft.
In the U.S.A., input rating for altitudes above 2000 ft must
be reduced by 4 percent for each 1000 ft above sea level.
In Canada, input rating must be derated by 10 percent for
altitudes of 2000 ft to 4500 ft above sea level.
Furnace input rate must be within ±2 percent of input on
furnace rating plate.
2. Determine natural gas orifice size and manifold pressure for
correct input.
a. Obtain yearly heat value average (at installed altitude)
from local gas supplier.
b. Obtain yearly specific gravity average from local gas
supplier.
c. Verify furnace model. Table 9 can only be used for
model 331JAV Furnaces.
d. Find installation altitude in Table 9.
NOTE: For Canada altitudes of 2000 to 4500 ft, use U.S.A.
altitudes of 2001 to 3000 ft in Table 9.
e. Find closest natural gas heat value and specific gravity in
Table 9.
f. Follow heat value and specific gravity lines to point of
intersection to find orifice size and low- and high-heat
manifold pressure settings for proper operation.
EXAMPLE: (0—2000 ft altitude)
Heating value = 1075 Btu/cu ft
Specific gravity = 0.62
Therefore: Orifice No. 45
Manifold pressure: 3.7-in. wc for high heat
1.5-in. wc for low heat
* Furnace is shipped with No. 45 orifices.
In this example, all main burner orifices are the correct size
and do not need to be changed to obtain proper input rate.
g. Check and verify burner orifice size in furnace. NEVER
ASSUME ORIFICE SIZE; ALWAYS CHECK AND
VERIFY.
3. Adjust manifold pressure to obtain input rate.
a. Remove caps that conceal adjustment screws for low-
and high-heat gas valve regulators. (See Fig. 15.)
b. Move setup switch SW-2 on control center to ON
position. (See Fig. 13.) This keeps furnace locked in
low-heat operation.
c. Jumper R and W/W1 thermostat connections on control
center to start furnace.
d. Turn low-heat adjusting screw (5/64 hex Allen wrench)
counterclockwise (out) to decrease input rate or clock-
wise (in) to increase input rate.
NOTE: DO NOT set low-heat manifold pressure less than 1.3-in.
wc or more than 1.7-in. wc for natural gas. If manifold pressure is
outside this range, change main burner orifices.
CAUTION: DO NOT bottom out gas valve regulator
adjusting screw. This can result in unregulated manifold
pressure and result in excess overfire and heat exchanger
failures.
NOTE: If orifice hole appears damaged or it is suspected to have
been redrilled, check orifice hole with a numbered drill bit of
correct size. Never redrill an orifice. A burr-free and squarely
aligned orifice hole is essential for proper flame characteristics.
e. Move setup switch SW-2 to OFF position after complet-
ing low-heat adjustment.
f. Jumper R and W2 thermostat connections on control
center. (See Fig. 10.) This keeps furnace locked in
high-heat operation.
