Corrective Action
If gas supply pressure downstream of SSOV Actuator cannot be
2.
lowered to the range specified in Table 4-1 (Natural Gas) or Table
4-4 (Propane) in Section 4.4: Combustion Calibration of this guide;
the SSOV Actuator may be defective.
Remove the leads from the High Gas Pressure switch. Measure
3.
continuity across the common (C) and normally closed (NC)
terminals with the unit not firing. Replace the switch if continuity
does not exist.
Test the temperature switch to insure it trips at its actual water
1.
temperature setting.
Check PID settings (Advanced Setup → Performance →
2.
Temperature Control, first 3 items). If the settings have been
changed, record the current readings then reset to default values.
Using the resistance charts in Section 2 of the Benchmark
3.
Platinum-Edge: REFERENCE Manual (GF-212) measure the
resistance of Shell sensor and BTU sensor at a known water
temperature.
If unit is in Manual mode, switch to Auto mode (Diagnostic →
4.
Manual Run, set Manual Mode = Enabled).
Check setpoint of unit and setpoint of Temperature switch; Ensure
5.
that the temperature switch is set higher than the unit's setpoint.
If the system is a variable flow system, monitor system flow
6.
changes to ensure that the rate of flow change is not faster than
what the units can respond to.
See HIGH WATER TEMPERATURE SWITCH OPEN.
1.
Check Temp HI Limit setting.
2.
Press CLEAR button and restart unit. If fault persists, contact
1.
qualified Service Personnel.
