Service Literature
G21 and GSR21 units are condensing furnaces utilizing
the pulse combustion process. Initially, combustion
takes place in an enclosed chamber. Then, as combus
tion products pass through the heat exchanger system
into a coil, the latent heat of combustion is extracted and
water is condensed from the exhaust gas.
The unit uses a redundant gas valve to assure safety
shut off as required by A.G.A. The units are manufac
tured for natural gas application. L.P. kits for A.G.A. /
C.G.A. units are available for field changeover.
An electronic direct spark ignition control initiates com
bustion. The ignition control serves four functions: pre
purge, ignition, flame sensing and post purge. Controls
reset in the event of nuisance lockout. The control also
verifies loss of combustion during a cycle, closing the
gas valve. A differential pressure switch shuts down the
unit immediately if there are obstructions in the exhaust
outlet or air intake.
A purge blower clears the combustion chamber before and af
ter each heating cycle to ensure proper air mixture for start up.
All units feature direct drive multi speed blower motors.
V" series units feature an electronically controlled blower
motor (ICM1 or ICM2) controlled by a VSP control (VSP1 or
VSP2−1). The VSP controls blower CFM using either a

These signals are gener

(CCB1) or a thermostat. A
PWM signal is generated by
the Harmony zone control
system. A fixed DC signal is
generated by the Efficiency
Plus
Humidity
(CCB1) and a 24 VAC signal
is generated by a thermo
stat.
The Harmony zone control system produces a PWM signal
to regulate blower CFM. The CCB1 varies indoor blower
speed in response to indoor humidity demand. The CCB1
produces a DC signal.
When a two speed condensing unit is used with the Harmony
zone control system or CCB1, compressor speed as well as
indoor blower CFM are controlled more accurately than with
a conventional two stage thermostat.

1 − Gas and air enter and mix in combustion
chamber
2 − To start the cycle a spark is used to ignite the
gas and air mixture (this is one "pulse").
3 − Positive pressure from combustion closes
flapper valves and forces exhaust gases down
the tailpipe.
4 − Exhaust gases leaving chamber create a
negative pressure. This opens the flapper valve
drawing in gas and air.
5 − At the same instant, part of the pulse is
reflected back from the tailpipe causing the
new gas and air mixture to ignite. No spark is
needed. (this is anotherpulse").
