UNIT COMPONENTS Magic-Pak: HW/HWC 5-14 Induced Draft Blower (*63) The induced draft blower is also referred to as a “combustion” blower, since its purpose is to establish flow of combustion air through the heat exchanger. Mounted at the outlet of the secondary heat exchanger, the blower establishes a negative pressure within the heat exchanger and exhausts the flue products outside the structure.
Service Reference Manual UNIT COMPONENTS 5-15 Burners (*34) The Magic-Pak HW and HWC units covered in this manual use a burner design called the “inshot” type. No adjustment is provided for primary or secondary air. For best operation, keep the burners clean. Use the correct orifice size and adjust the manifold pressure for the fuel being used and the operating altitude.

Service Reference Manual UNIT COMPONENTS 5-19 Main (High) Limit Switch (*52) A Normally Closed control that opens if abnormally high circulating air temperatures occur. It is an automatic reset control. Note: Several different main limit switches are used. Refer to the parts list for the correct limit switch.
UNIT COMPONENTS Magic-Pak: HW/HWC 5-20 Flame Rollout Switch (*55) A Normally Closed switch that opens when abnormal temperatures occur in the burner area, caused by a restricted heat exchanger, causing main burner flame to “roll out” into the vestibule area. To reset the switch, push the button on top.
Service Reference Manual UNIT COMPONENTS 5-21 Pressure Switch (*57) These are Normally Open switches that react to a difference in pressure on an internal diaphragm. It will not allow ignition to start if the induced draft blower cannot produce sufficient negative pressure relative to atmospheric pressure or pressure in a sealed burner box.

It does not take the place of the complete Arm- strong Installation and Maintenance Instructions that are shipped with IMPORTANT: every Magic-Pak unit.
Page 111
INSTALLATION Magic-Pak: HW/HWC If three or more adjacent walls form an air shaft with Magic-Pak HW/HWC units facing each other in each wall, the separation between opposite walls should be increased by 20%. These “rule-of-thumb” dimensions are intended to minimize possibilities for recirculation of condenser air, or interaction between units.
Page 112
Service Reference Manual INSTALLATION Installing With a Wall Sleeve CAUTION The sleeve is not intended as the sole support for the unit. Additional support must be provided near the return opening on the unit for adequate support. The use of vibration isolation material between the unit and the support is recommended.
INSTALLATION Magic-Pak: HW/HWC Installing Without a Wall Sleeve Refer to the following directions and Figure 6-1 on page 6-5 for guidance in installing the unit without a wall sleeve: 1. Measure the size of the unit and provide an opening in an outside wall that will accept the unit.
Service Reference Manual INSTALLATION Condensate Drain (HWC Models) Install the plastic drain tube (furnished) over the 5/8" O.D. fitting welded to the center of the condensate pan. Connect the other end of the drain tube to the open trap (see Figure 6-2). The plastic drain connection is provided so that it may be disconnected from the permanent drain tubing in the building in the event it becomes necessary to remove the cooling chassis assembly.
Page 115
INSTALLATION Magic-Pak: HW/HWC Special provisions must be made concerning the location of the vent termination with relation to building air inlets. A building air inlet is consid- ered to be any door, moveable window, gravity fresh air inlet or other opening where fresh outdoor air can be brought into the building.
Service Reference Manual INSTALLATION Removal of Unit from Common Venting System When an existing furnace is removed from a common venting system serving other appliances, the venting system is likely to be too large to properly vent the remaining attached appliances. The following test should be conducted with each appliance while the other appliances connected to the common venting system are not in operation.
Page 117
INSTALLATION Magic-Pak: HW/HWC 6-10 Units for operation with propane must be converted with a kit supplied by the manufacturer and require for operation an inlet pressure of 11" W.C. minimum and 14" W.C. maximum. A regulator is also required on the propane tank.
Service Reference Manual INSTALLATION 6-11 A manual shutoff valve must be located outside the unit. The use of a union located upstream of the controls is recommended, between the controls and the manual shutoff valve. This will facilitate removal of controls and manifold.
INSTALLATION Magic-Pak: HW/HWC 6-12 See Table 6-3 and the Specifications section beginning on page 1-1 for correct wire ampacity for the cooling chassis required, and size the wire accordingly. For HW (heating only units): When sizing wire, keep in mind that an air conditioning chassis may be added in the future.
Service Reference Manual INSTALLATION 6-13 inside the unit. Make sure that all sides of the duct are flanged over to permit removal of the cooling chassis if required. Use a flexible connec- tion to attach the remainder of the return duct. The return duct should be sealed to the unit casing and terminate outside the space containing the furnace.
INSTALLATION Magic-Pak: HW/HWC 6-14 To adjust the regulator, turn the adjusting screw on the regulator clock- wise to increase pressure and input or counterclockwise to decrease pressure and input. For natural gas installations, check the burner rate by observing the gas meter (making sure that all other gas appliances are turned off).
Page 122
Service Reference Manual INSTALLATION 6-15 Installation and Operation in Extremely Cold Weather Areas In areas where extremely cold (below – 20°F) outdoor temperatures can be expected, some additional installation and operating precautions should be taken. The following precautions are taken to prevent possible vent system ice blockage that could result in safety shutdown of the burners: 1.

A C C E S S O R I E S Magic-Pak: HW/HWC 7-14 ALPKT389-2 L.P. Gas Conversion Kit The ALPKT389-2 kit contains the following parts to convert the 26, 38, 51 and 64HW/HWC series gas furnace from natural gas to propane gas. For altitudes from 2000 - 4500 feet, a high altitude kit as supplied by the manufacturer must be used (see page 7-15).

TROUBLESHOOTING Magic-Pak: HW/HWC Troubleshooting Compressor Checkout The objective of this section is to help in diagnosing compressor prob- lems. It presents a series of tests that should be conducting before a determination on the condition of the compressor is made. This section has been organized so that the simplest checks are done first, followed by the more detailed tests (if necessary).

Service Reference Manual TROUBLESHOOTING 2. Set an ohm meter to the lowest possible setting. On a note pad, write the following: “C to ground”, “S to ground” and “R to ground.” 3. Using the ohm meter, check for continuity between C terminal on the fusite plug and the case of the compressor (a spot may have to be cleaned on the compressor to get a good reading.) Record what was observed on the note pad next to the heading “C to ground”.
Page 189
TROUBLESHOOTING Magic-Pak: HW/HWC When the resistance of “C to S” is added to the resistance of “C to R”, the combination is the total resistance of the entire motor windings circuit. 2. Compare the total to the reading taken between “S to R.” If the windings are in good condition, the sum of “C to S”...

Before the compressor can be con- demned as having a burned out start or run winding, it must be deter- mined that the overload switch is in fact closed. It may take several hours for the compressor to cool down enough to guarantee that the switch has closed.
TROUBLESHOOTING Magic-Pak: HW/HWC Capacitor Checkout Before starting the checkout of the capacitor, it is important to understand what a capacitor is, how it works and what its function is in relation to a motor. A capacitor is a storage device similar to a battery, only unlike a battery a capacitor wants to give up its energy all at once.

Service Reference Manual TROUBLESHOOTING Performance Performance Checkout HW/HWC chassis come with a pre-charged chassis assembly. The chassis assembly is designed in a way that the unit may be run indepen- dently of the HWC unit. When the chassis is run on a floor or bench, the performance measurements will be affected due to the change in static pressures, recirculated air, excessive temperatures and equal ambient temperatures from indoor to outdoor.
