5. Set the Maximum Firing Rate

Monitor the unit’s actual temperature rise by placing
a thermocouple in the unit’s inlet and a second in the
discharge, three duct diameters downstream of the burner.

Send the unit to maximum fire by disconnecting and
isolating the wire connected to Terminal 3 on the
Maxitrol 14 or the Maxitrol 44. See images on next page.

While monitoring the unit’s temperature rise, set the
maximum firing rate by adjusting the regulator until the
designed temperature rise is achieved. After setting the
maximum firing rate, reconnect the wire to the amplifier.

Direct Gas Nameplate

NOTE

The low fire time delay must be set high enough to
provide at least 10 seconds of low fire while the unit
tries to light.

IMPORTANT

Setting the maximum firing rate during mild weather
conditions may cause the high limit to trip out during
extreme conditions requiring manual resetting.

NOTE

Gas trains are equipped with a combined regulator
valve.

NOTE

Clockwise rotation increases the temperature rise,
counterclockwise rotation decreases the temperature
rise.

NOTE

The minimum setting for the maximum firing rate may
be higher than required. This is acceptable, the burner
will modulate as needed.

IMPORTANT

The proper minimum firing rate setting results in a
small ribbon of continuous flame which covers the
flame rod and runs across the entire burner.

IMPORTANT

The minimum firing rate setting is critical. If the
settings is too high, the unit may not light, too low and
the flame rod may not detect the flame.

IMPORTANT

Do not allow the disconnected wire to come in
contact with a potential ground. Damage to the
amplifier or transformer could result.

NOTE

Adjusting the maximum and minimum fire may require
the inlet air sensor to be initially set higher than
desired in order to start the burner(s). Once high and
low fire have been set, the inlet air sensor should be
turned down to the desired temperature.

NOTE

Counterclockwise rotation increases the minimum fire
rate setting, clockwise rotation decreases the setting.

6. Set the Minimum Firing Rate

Disconnect and isolate one of the wires running to the
modulating valve to
send the unit to its
minimum firing rate.
Set the minimum
firing rate by
adjusting the needle
valve.

After setting the
minimum firing rate,
reconnect the wire to
the modulating valve.

4. Set the Low Fire Time Delay

Set the low fire time delay to 75% of its maximum setting.
See below for the location of the time delay setting.

NOTE

Do not set the burner maximum firing rate based on gas
pressure. It should be set based on the unit’s designed
temperature rise shown on the direct gas label.
