PG80VTLA: Installation, Start-up, Operating and Service and Maintenance Instructions

SERVICE AND MAINTENANCE

PROCEDURES

Untrained personnel can perform basic maintenance functions such as
cleaning and replacing air filters. All other operations must be performed
by trained service personnel. A qualified service person should inspect
the furnace once a year.
WARNING
!
FIRE, INJURY OR DEATH HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could result in personal injury, death
and/or property damage.
The ability to properly perform maintenance on this equipment requires
certain knowledge, mechanical skills, tools, and equipment. If you do
not possess these, do not attempt to perform any maintenance on this
equipment other than those procedures recommended in the User's
Manual.
CAUTION
!
ELECTRICAL OPERATION HAZARD
Failure to follow this caution may result in improper furnace operation
or failure of furnace.
Label all wires prior to disconnection when servicing controls. Wiring
errors can cause improper and dangerous operation.
CAUTION
!
ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARD
Failure to follow this caution may result in environmental pollution.
Remove and recycle all components or materials (i.e. oil, refrigerant,
control board, etc.) before unit final disposal.
WARNING
!
ELECTRICAL SHOCK, FIRE OR EXPLOSION HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could result in personal injury or death,
or property damage.
Before installing, modifying, or servicing system, main electrical
disconnect switch must be in the OFF position and install a lockout tag.
There may be more than one disconnect switch. Lock out and tag
switch with a suitable warning label. Verify proper operation after
servicing.

GENERAL

These instructions are written as if the furnace is installed in an upflow
application. An upflow furnace application is where the blower is
located below the combustion and controls section of the furnace, and
conditioned air is discharged upward. Since this furnace can be installed
in any of the 4 positions shown in
orientation to component location accordingly.
Manufacturer reserves the right to change, at any time, specifications and designs without notice and without obligations.

ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could result in personal injury or death.
There may be more than one electrical supply to the furnace. Check
accessories and cooling unit for additional electrical supplies that must
be shut off during furnace servicing. Lock out and tag switch with a
suitable warning label.
The electrical ground and polarity for 115-v wiring must be properly
maintained. See
Fig. 24
for field wiring information, and see
the Wiring Diagram section for furnace wiring information.
NOTE: If the polarity is not correct, the STATUS LED on the control
will flash rapidly and prevent the furnace from heating. The control
system also requires an earth ground for proper operation of the control
and flame-sensing electrode.
The 24-v circuit contains an automotive-type, 3-amp. fuse located on the
control. (See
Fig.
36). Any shorts of the 24-v wiring during installation,
service, or maintenance will cause this fuse to blow. If fuse replacement
is required, use ONLY a 3-amp. fuse. The control LED will display
status code 24 when fuse needs to be replaced.
Proper instrumentation is required to service electrical controls. The
control in this furnace is equipped with a Status Code LED
(Light-Emitting Diode) to aid in installation, servicing, and
troubleshooting. Status codes can be viewed at the sight glass in blower
access door. The amber furnace control LED is either ON continuously,
rapid flashing, or a code composed of 2 digits. The first digit is the
number of short flashes, the second digit is the number of long flashes.
Proper instrumentation is required to service electrical controls. The
control in this furnace is equipped with a Status Code LED
(Light-Emitting Diode) to aid in installation, servicing, and
troubleshooting. Status codes can be viewed at the sight glass in blower
access door. The amber furnace control LED is either flashing a
heartbeat (bright-dim), on-solid, or flashing a status code.
For an explanation of status codes, refer to service label located on
blower access door (or see
Fig.
See the brief Troubleshooting Guide
For 2-Stage Variable Speed ECM Controls the stored status codes will
NOT be erased from the control memory, when 115- or 24-v power is
interrupted. The control will store up to the last 7 Status Codes in order
of occurrence.
NOTE: NO thermostat signal may be present at control, and all
blower-OFF delays must be completed.
1. To retrieve status codes, proceed with the following:
a. Leave 115-v power to furnace turned on.
b. Remove outer access door.
c. Look into blower access door sight glass for current LED status.
d. Remove blower access door.
NOTE: The Status Codes cannot be retrieved by disconnecting the limit
switch or draft safeguard switch. To retrieve Status Codes, follow the
procedure below.
Turn Setup Switch, SW1-1 "ON."
2. Manually close blower access door switch.
3. Control will flash up to 7 Status Codes.
4. The last Status Code, or 8th Code, will be Code 11.
5. Turn SW1-1 "OFF."
6. A continuously-lit Amber LED will appear and indicates proper
operation.
