Post Start-Up Inspection - Raypak 106 User's Installation And Operation Manual

On P-106 heaters, splice into the red/white wire to connect
the time clock. For P-156 heaters the fireman's switch
connection is located on the 14-pin header connected to
the digital control board. Splice into the red wire jumper
tagged "Where necessary add "Fireman's" switch circuit
here" to connect the time clock.
The fireman's switch connection on both heaters
must be a dry contact and must not supply power to
the heater. Powering the fireman's switch connection
externally may damage the heater, and is not covered
by warranty.
P-156 heaters: Do not exceed 50' (15.2 m) of total wiring
using 18 AWG stranded copper wire rated for 221°F
(105°C) minimum.
NOTE: When using a time clock, the heater will display
"Clock/Fireman Sw" when the fireman's switch is open,
indicating that the time clock has shut off the call for heat.
