FAILURE TO READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY BEFORE
INSTALLING OR OPERATING THIS CONTROL COULD CAUSE PERSONAL
INJURY AND/OR PROPERTY DAMAGE.
The 50A55-843 is an automatic gas interrupted ignition control
that employs a microprocessor to continually monitor, analyze,
and control the proper operation of the gas burner, inducer, and
fan.
Signals interpreted during continual surveillance of the thermo-
stat and flame sensing element initiate automatic ignition of the
burner, sensing of the flame, and system shut-off during normal
operation.
Installation should be done by a qualified heating and air
conditioning contractor or licensed electrician.
If in doubt about whether your wiring is millivolt, line, or low
voltage, have it inspected by a qualified heating and air condi-
tioning contractor or licensed electrician.
Do not exceed the specification ratings.
All wiring must conform to local and national electrical codes and
ordinances.
This control is a precision instrument, and should be handled
carefully. Rough handling or distorting components could cause
the control to malfunction.
Following installation or replacement, follow manufacturer's
recommended installation/service instructions to ensure proper
operation.
CAUTION
Do not short out terminals on gas valve or primary
control. Short or incorrect wiring may damage the
thermostat.

    HUM N (optional) spade terminal * The twinning feature is available only on models with six screw terminals; one of these terminals will be designated “TWIN”. All 50A55-843 controls used in twinning applications must have the “TWIN” terminal. † Maximum recommended flame probe wire length is 36 inches.
  • Page 6: Option Switches

    OPERATION OPTION SWITCHES The option switches on the 50A55-843 control are used to determine the length of the cool delay-to-fan-off, heat delay-to- fan-on and heat delay-to-fan-off periods. The following table shows the time periods that will result from the various switch positions.
