c. Measure time (in sec) for gas meter test dial to complete

1 revolution.

d. Refer to Table 9 for cu ft of gas per hr.

e. Multiply gas rate (cu ft/hr) X heating value (Btu/cu ft)

using natural gas heating value from local gas
utility/supplier.

EXAMPLE:
Btu heating input = Btu/cu ft X cu ft/hr
Heating value of gas = 975 Btu/cu ft
Time for 1 revolution of 2-cu ft dial = 70 sec
Gas rate = 103 cu ft/hr (from Table 9)
Btu heating input = 103 X 975 = 100,425 Btuh
In this example, the orifice size and manifold pressure
adjustment is within

±

2 percent of the furnace input

rate.

B.

Set Temperature Rise

CAUTION:

Temperature rise must be within limits

specified on unit rating plate. Recommended operation is
at midpoint of rise or above. Failure to follow this caution
may result in condensing or overheating the heat ex-
changers.

Determine and adjust air temperature rise as follows:

1. Place thermometers in return and supply ducts as close to

furnace as possible. Be sure thermometers do not see heat
exchanger so that radiant heat does not affect readings. This
practice is particularly important with straight-run ducts.

2. When thermometer readings stabilize, subtract return-air

temperature from supply-air temperature to determine air
temperature rise.

3. Adjust temperature rise by adjusting blower speed. Increase

blower speed to reduce temperature rise. Decrease blower
speed to increase temperature rise.

WARNING:

Disconnect 115-v electrical power before

changing speed tap. Failure to follow this warning could
result in personal injury.

4. To change blower motor speed selections for heating mode,

remove blower motor lead from control center HEAT
terminal. (See Fig. 27.) Select desired blower motor speed
lead from 1 of the other terminals and relocate it to HEAT
terminal. See Table 10 for lead color identification. Recon-
nect original lead on SPARE terminal.

Follow this same procedure for proper COOL speed selec-
tion.

C.

Blower Off Delay (Heat Mode)

The main blower off time delay period is factory-set at 135 sec and
is not field-adjustable.

D.

Set Thermostat Heat Anticipator

Thermostat heat anticipator must be set to match amp draw of
components in R-W circuit. Accurate amp draw measurements can
be obtained at thermostat subbase terminals R and W.

Fig. 42 illustrates an easy method of obtaining these measure-
ments. Amp reading should be taken after blower motor has
started. See thermostat manufacturer’s instructions for adjusting
heat anticipator and for varying heating cycle length.
