Gas Control System

The standard unit comes equipped for single stage operation. Unit heating operation is
accomplished at full input.

Sequence of Operation

All units follow the same basic sequence of operation and is as follows:
1. Thermostat calls for heat. Draftor relay energizes draftor with call for heat.
2. Ignition control module energizes pilot operator of gas valve and initiates spark at ignitor of
3. Pilot burner ignition is proven to the ignition control by the flame sense probe and sparking
4. Once pilot burner operation is proven, the ignition control module energizes the main burner
5. Approximately 60 seconds after the main burners light, the fan time delay initiates fan
6. Thermostat is satisfied and call for heat is removed. Draftor relay de-energizes draftor with
7. Ignition control module de-energizes pilot and main burner operators of the gas valve,

information regarding the heating operation of this unit.
All units are equipped with an intermittent ignition pilot system. The pilot is lit and
extinguished each cycle of unit heating operation.
On natural gas units, the ignitor will continue to spark and pilot gas will continue to fl ow until
the pilot flame is proven.
LP (propane) units are equipped with 100% lockout. The lockout function shuts off the main
and pilot gas valves if the pilot gas fails to ignite within 90 seconds of the onset of trial for
ignition.
The gas control system operates at 24 VAC and is supplied by a step-down transformer found
in the electrical cabinet that will match the unit line voltage specified. See
unit controls location.
modulated gas controls are used.
Each duct furnace is equipped with an individual ignition control system which consists of the
following components: ignition control module, gas valve and pilot burner.
The i i g g n n i i t t i i o o n n c c o o n n t t r r o o l l m m o o d d u u l l e e is the heart of the ignition control system. This control initiates
all gas flow, provides means to light the pilot burner, proves and monitors the pilot burner
operation.
The g g a a s s v v a a l l v v e e consists of two operators which provide gas to the pilot and main burners.
Both operators are energized and de-energized by the ignition control module each heating
cycle.
The p p i i l l o o t t b b u u r r n n e e r r includes an ignitor and flame sense probe. The ignitor provides the spark,
originating at the ignition control module, to light the pilot. The ignition control module
proves and monitors the pilot flame through the flame sensing probe.
