Aerovent IM-500

Mild Temperature Control

(Aerovent Part #1175-01E)

A mild weather temperature stat is supplied with most

units. The purpose of the mild temperature stat is to shut

the main burner down (100%) during mild weather days

so undesirable temperature build-up in the space will not

occur. This device is normally set at 60 - 65

o

F. Adjustable.

Damper Motor

(Aerovent Part #26758-02 or #26758-20)

The damper is operated with a rotary spring return damper

motor capable of 133 in. lbs. of torque. Full opening of the

motor requires 120 seconds. An internal adjustable auxiliary

switch set at 65

o

open closes and allows the starter to pull

in and start the fan. On power interrupt the motor is driven

closed by the spring return device.

Start-Up Procedure and Check

List

After the unit has been installed and the preliminary checks

have been made, the following start-up procedure must be

performed.

Regulators are shipped separately (or supplied by oth-

ers) require field adjustment.

It is important to check

to make sure that the gas supply pressure to the

unit is in accordance with the input pressure rat-

ing shown on the unit specification description.

CAUTION:

Check gas supply pressure at the unit upstream from the

pressure regulator. Purging air from gas line and piping

should be performed as described in ANSI Z223.1, latest

edition, “National Fuel Gas Code”, or in Canada, CAN/

CGA-B149 Codes.

Strainers are recommended to

prevent foreign material from preventing the

safety shut-off valve and blocking valves from

properly seating.

To properly perform the start-up, the following instru-

ments are required.

Test Instruments

Volt Meter (25-460 volt) AC

Amp Meter (0-50 amp)

Ohm Meter

Slack Tube Manometer or 0 - 30" w.c. Pressure Gauge

Hand Held or Strobe-Type Tachometer

1. Turn off power to the unit at the disconnect switch.

Turn all hand gas cocks to the off position.

2. Set the Summer/Off/Winter switch on the Remote

Panel to the “Off ” position and all temperature con-

trol stats to their lowest setting.

3. Check to see that there are no obstructions to the inlet

air supply or the discharge air supply ducts and air

make-up compartments (and return air recirculation

section if supplied).

4. Check to see that all wiring is secure and properly pro-

tected.

5. Recheck belt tension and pulley alignment.

6. Check bearings for proper lubrication.

7. Check to make sure that all filters are in place, and they

are installed properly with arrows pointing in the direc-

tion of air flow.

8. Perform a visual inspection of the unit to make sure

no damage has occurred during installation. Make sure

all service doors have been closed.

9. With the Summer/Off/Winter switch still in the

“Off ” position, energize the electric supply to the unit

with the power disconnect switch.

10. Move the Summer/Off/Winter switch to the

“Summer” position. The inlet and/or discharge air

dampers should open (approximately 120 seconds).

When in the 65% open position, the damper end

switch should make and allow the blower motor starter

to be energized.
