Lennox ML193DFE Series Unit Information

Advertisement

S e r v i c e L i t e r a t u r e
ML193DFE series units are high-efficiency gas furnaces
manufactured with Lennox DuralokPlus aluminized steel
clamshell-type heat exch angers, with a stainless steel
condensing coil. ML193DFE units are available in heating
input capacities of 44,000 to 88, 000 Btuh and cooling ap-
plications from 1.5 to 4 tons.
Refer to Engineering Handbook for proper sizing.
Units are factory equipped for use with natural gas. A kit
is available for conversion to LPG operation. All ML193D-
FE units are equipped with a hot surface ignition system.
The gas valve is redundant to assure safety shut-off as
required by C.S.A.
The heat exchanger, burners and manifold assembly can
be removed for inspection and service. The maintenance
section gives a detailed description on how this is done.
The ML193DFE can be "twinned" with a second unit. See
twinning kit 16W72 for information for two units to operate
as one, in a shared duct system controlled by a single
thermostat.
All specifications are subject to change. Procedures out-
lined in this manual are presented as a recommendation
only and do not supersede or replace local or state codes.
WARNING
Electric shock hazard. Can cause injury
or death. Before attempting to perform
any service or maintenance, turn the
electrical power to unit OFF at disconnect
switch(es). Unit may have multiple power
supplies.

Improper installation, adjustment, alteration, service
or maintenance can cause property damage,
personal injury or loss of life. Installation and service
must be performed by a licensed professional HVAC
instale (or equivalent), service agency or the gas
supplier.
As with any mechanical equipment, contact with
sharp sheet metal edges can result in personal
injury. Take care while handling this equipment and
wear gloves and protective clothing.
