GENERAL SYSTEM INFORMATION
Designed for operation with natural gas, LP gas and #2 fuel oil appliances.
1. The thermostat (wall thermostat or aquastat) calls for heat and energizes a relay which activates the
power venter. After the venter motor has come up to speed, the pressure switch closes. This closes the
circuit to the burner and allows the burner to fi re.
2. For millivolt controlled water heaters using the CK-20 Series Control Kit, the gas valve pressure switch
activates the power venter at the same time as the burner fi res.
3. After the heating requirement has been satisfi ed, the thermostat circuit will open and de-activate the
burner and power venter circuit.
4. For venting systems equipped with a post purge device, the power venter operates for a period of time
after the burner has shut off to purge remaining fl ue gases.
