The pressure switch on the TJERNLUND SS1 Sideshot with UC1 Universal Control may not be activating after replacing the motor, wheel, and pressure switch due to several possible causes:

1. Incorrect Wiring – Ensure that all motor and pressure switch connections are correctly wired according to the wiring diagram. Verify that the red jumper on the UC1 control board is in the correct position based on the appliance interlock voltage.

2. Improper Motor Installation – If the motor is not properly seated or secured, it may not generate the required airflow to activate the pressure switch.

3. Blocked or Restricted Venting – Check for any obstructions or restrictions in the venting system that could prevent proper air movement.

4. Faulty Pressure Switch or Tubing – Verify that the pressure switch tubing is correctly connected and not kinked, blocked, or leaking.

5. Dip Switch Settings on UC1 Board – Ensure that the dip switch settings for the prover status check and pre/post-purge settings are correctly configured.

6. Insufficient Power Supply – Confirm that the system is receiving the correct voltage (115V or 24V) and that the red voltage jumper is in the correct location.

7. Faulty Control Board – If all other factors check out, the UC1 Universal Control board may be malfunctioning and require further testing or replacement.

Checking these factors should help identify the issue preventing the pressure switch from activating.

  • Page 18: Draft Adjustment Procedure (Oil)

    DRAFT ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURE NOTES: All draft adjustments are approximate. This chart is to be used for initial draft adjustment only. Subsequent draft adjustments may be required to com- pensate for various field conditions: wind, vent pipe resistance, building pressure, multiple appliances, etc. BTU/HR input ratings assume 30% or less excess air for flame retention burners and 50% to 100% excess air for conventional oil burners.
  • Page 19: Draft Adjustment Procedure (Gas)

    Do not allow heating system to run at less than a -.02” W.C. over fire draft or at a CO level that is less than a 1% reduction from the value measured at a trace of smoke and a -.02” W.C. over fire draft. If these parameters are unobtainable, contact Tjernlund at 1-800-255-4208 for Technical Assistance.

    Accessory air intakes are available that connect to the burner motor, using it to pull in the outdoor air. The Tjernlund IN-FORCER Combustion Air Intake tempers the raw outdoor air as it is delivered to the burner.
