Optional Gas Controls

These units are available with optional gas controls which will give either multi-stage or
modulating operation. The sequence of operation of those units equipped with these optional
gas controls differs only at what rate each duct furnace's main burners ignite and operate at, or
the order of duct furnace firing for those units equipped with two or three duct furnaces.

Static Pressure through the unit should never exceed 2.0 inch W.C. (0.50 kPa). The standard unit
is operated at a temperature rise range of 20 to 60°F (11 to 33°C). The high temperature rise
model is operated at a temperature rise range of 60 to 90°F (33 to 50°C).
I I m m p p o o r r t t a a n n t t : : It is important that the final temperature leaving the unit does not exceed 160°F (71°

T T w w o o S S t t a a g g e e U U n n i i t t s s : : Two stages of heating; first stage is 50% of full rate, second stage is 100%
of full rate. Main burner ignition is at first stage only.
T T h h r r e e e e S S t t a a g g e e U U n n i i t t s s : :
– Dual duct furnace models: First furnace is equipped with two stage heating; second
furnace is equipped with single stage heating but fired independently, giving three stages
of heating.
– Triple duct furnace models: Each duct furnace is equipped with single stage heating but
fired independently, giving three stages. Each stage is 33% of the unit's full input rate.
Duct furnace one will always light first and disengage last.
F F o o u u r r S S t t a a g g e e U U n n i i t t s s : : Dual duct furnace models only. Each duct furnace is equipped with two
stage heating but fired independently, giving four stages. Each stage is 25% of the units full
input rate. Duct furnace one will always light first and disengage last.
S S i i x x S S t t a a g g e e U U n n i i t t s s : : Triple duct furnace models only. Each duct furnace is equipped with two
stage heating but fired independently giving six stages. Each stage is 16.5% of the units full
input rate. Duct furnace one will always light first and disengage last.
E E l l e e c c t t r r o o n n i i c c M M o o d d u u l l a a t t i i o o n n U U n n i i t t s s : : These units are equipped with an electronic modulating
control which provides unit firing capabilities of 50 to 100% of the units full input rate. This
control is found in the gas train downstream of the gas valve and allows main burner ignition
only at the maximum rate. A thermostat with remote set point adjustment modulates the gas
input.

equipped with an electronic modulating control on duct furnace one and single or two stage
heating on each successive duct furnace. Furnace one (modulated) will fire first and
disengage last. Additional stages of heat will engage after furnace one has fired at maximum
modulation capability for the duration of the delay setting. The amount of modulation and
each stage size depends upon unit size and the number of stages. See following chart.
C). When final air throughput adjustments are being made, a check of the discharge
air temperature should be made after unit has operated for 15 to 20 minutes.
