6.8 INTERLOCK TESTS
The unit is equipped with two interlock circuits called the Remote Interlock and Delayed
Interlock. Terminal connections for these circuits are located in the I/O Box (Figure 2-9) and are
labeled REMOTE INTL’K IN and DELAYED INTL’K IN. These circuits can shut down the unit in
the event that an interlock is opened. These interlocks are shipped from the factory jumpered
(closed). However, each of these interlocks may be utilized in the field as a remote stop and
start, an emergency cut-off, or to prove that a device such as a pump, gas booster, or louver is
operational.
REMOTE INTERLOCK
6.8.1
1. Remove the cover from the I/O Box and locate the REMOTE INTL’K IN terminals.
2. Start the unit in the Manual Mode and set the valve position between 25% and 30%.
3. If there is a jumper across the REMOTE INTL’K IN terminals, remove one side of the
jumper. If the interlock is being controlled by an external device, either open the interlock
via the external device or disconnect one of the wires leading to the external device.
4. The unit should shut down and display INTERLOCK OPEN.
5. Once the interlock connection is reconnected, the INTERLOCK OPEN message should
automatically clear and the unit should restart.
DELAYED INTERLOCK
6.8.2
1. Remove the cover from the I/O Box and locate the DELAYED INTL’K IN terminals.
2. Start the unit in the Manual Mode at a valve position between 25% and 30%.
3. If there is a jumper across the DELAYED INTL’K IN terminals, remove one side of the
jumper. If the interlock is connected to a proving switch of an external device, disconnect
one of the wires leading to the proving switch.
4. The unit should shut down and display a DELAYED INTERLOCK OPEN fault message.
The
FAULT LED should be flashing.
5. Reconnect the wire or jumper removed in step 3 to restore the interlock.
6. Press the
CLEAR button to reset the fault
7. The unit should start.
6.9 FLAME FAULT TESTS
Flame faults can occur during ignition or while the unit is already running. To simulate each of
these fault conditions, proceed as follows:
1. Set the
ON/OFF switch to the OFF position.
2. Place the unit in the Manual Mode and set the valve position between 25% and 30%.
3. Close the Manual Shut-off Valve located between the Safety Shut-Off Valve (SSOV) and
the Air/Fuel Valve (see Figure 6-3).
4. Set the
ON/OFF switch to the ON position to start the unit.
5. The unit should shut down after reaching the Ignition cycle and display FLAME LOSS
DURING IGN.
6. Open the valve previously closed in step 3 and press the
CLEAR button.
7. Restart the unit and allow it to prove flame.
