  • Page 20 System Installation In this section, the necessary procedures are detailed to integrate NTRODUCTION a VeriFlame into a burner system. Specific wiring directions are given for the various functions described in the previous section. Note: Shut off the power supply before the VeriFlame is removed or replaced from the base.
  • Page 21 sensing port. Power the valve from the blower output terminal 8. An alternate method if accepted by local codes: the air switch could be wired between the combustion blower output and the air switch input. Connecting the air switch in this manner will satisfy the open contact (air short) check during startup.
  • Page 22 High Purge Switch For modulation models: the system can be wired to check for Input high purge position for the high fire purge portion of the sequence. To use this feature, the red jumper in the base must be cut and the (Terminal D) high purge position switch must be connected from terminal 6 to D.

  • Page 27 Sensor Installation This section describes the proper wiring, installation and NTRODUCTION sighting considerations for the sensors used with a VeriFlame. Warning: Incorrect sensor installation may cause the sensor to generate a false flame signal, possibly resulting in the collection of unburned fuel in the combustion chamber.
  • Page 28 Note: Unshielded sensor wiring must not be run in common with other wires; it must be run in separate conduit. Use 1mm (#14 to #18 AWG) wire suitable for 90°C (194°F) and 600 volt insulation. Multiple unshielded flame sensor wiring must not be run together in a common conduit or wire way.
  • Page 29 area between the flame rod and spark plug may eliminate the interference. CANNERS Warning: Use only Eclipse scanner models as listed for operation with the VeriFlame. When installing scanners, please consider the following: 1) Position the scanner within 450 mm (18") of the flame. Consult factory for longer distances.
  • Page 30 Test Procedures This section describes the test procedures that must be NTRODUCTION performed after installation to insure that the VeriFlame is operating properly; these procedures are mandatory. Insert the positive probe of a 0-15 VDC, digital voltmeter LAME IGNAL into the test point on the front cover of the VeriFlame; TRENGTH connect the negative probe to S2 or alternately to ground.
  • Page 31 pilot flame. Repeat steps 1 through 6 until the main burner lights off smoothly and reliably. 1) Manually shut off the fuel supply to the pilot and the ILOT LAME AILURE main burner. 2) Press the test/reset button in for the Pilot Test Mode, see page 14.
  • Page 32 Maintenance and Troubleshooting This section is divided into two parts. The first part NTRODUCTION describes the maintenance procedures. The second part describes troubleshooting procedures and includes identifying problems and interpreting the operating conditions by the lit LEDs on the front cover. Preventative maintenance is the key to a reliable, safe and AINTENANCE efficient system.
  • Page 33 1) Inspect flame-sensing devices for good condition and ONTHLY HECK cleanliness. Keep scanner lenses clean with a soft, damp cloth, since small amounts of dust will measurably reduce the flame signal strength. Wash the flame rod electrode and insulator with soap and water, then rinse and dry thoroughly.
