R7184 Led Diagnostic Light - ECR International WML-C Operation And Maintenance Manual

R7184 LED DIAGNOSTIC LIGHT

The LED diagnostic light has several
functions. It indicates the state or mode
in which the oil burner is operating. It will
also indicate fault conditions, and help
determine cad cell resistance while the
burner is operating.
NORMAL CONDITIONS:
The LED diagnostic light will turn on
when the burner enters the carryover
state; the point at which ignition spark is
on, and will remain on through the run
state, where the ignition
terminated but the burner continues to
fire.
The LED diagnostic light will turn off at
the end of the burner cycle as the R7184
enters the idle state, and will remain off
until the next heating cycle.
FAULT CONDITIONS:
If the LED diagnostic light is flashing
quickly; 1 Hz (½ second on / ½ second
off), the R7184 is in the lockout state or
in restricted mode. To exit the lockout
state, press the reset button.
If the LED diagnostic light is flashing
slowly; ¼ Hz (2 seconds on / 2 seconds
off), the R7184 is in the recycle state.
This indicates that flame sensing was
lost after the lockout timer expired during
the ignition carryover state. The R7184
will return to the idle state within 60
seconds.
CAD CELL CONDITION:
If the LED diagnostic light is off, the cad
cell is not sensing flame.
If the LED diagnostic light is on, the cad
cell is sensing flame, or viewing ambient
light.
The resistance of the cad cell may be
checked while the R7184 is in the run
state by pressing the reset button. The
LED diagnostic light will flash the
following code:

Flashes Resistance in Ohms
1 Less than 400
2 Between 400 - 800
3 Between 800 – 1600
4 Between 1600- 5000

Before checking the oil primary control,
perform these preliminary checks, (repair
or replace controls as necessary):
•
Check the power supply; fuse
box or breaker, any service switches, all
wiring connections, and burner motor
reset button (if equipped).
•
Check the limit switches to
ensure that the switch contacts are
closed.
•
Check the electrode gap and
position.
•
Check the contacts between the
oil primary control and the electrodes.
•
Check oil supply (tank gauge).
•
Check the oil nozzle, oil filter,
and oil valves.
•
Check the piping or tubing to
the oil tank.
•
Check the oil pump pressure.
CHECK OIL PRIMARY CONTROL AND
IGNITER
If the trouble does not appear to be in
the burner or ignition hardware, check
the oil primary control and the igniter by
using the following equipment:
Screwdriver.
Voltmeter (0 - 150
Insulated jumper wires with both ends
stripped.

Electrical Shock Hazard.
Troubleshooting is done with the system
powered. Be careful to observe all
necessary precautions
electrical shock or equipment damage.
PRELIMINARY CHECKS:
Make sure that limit switches are closed
and those contacts are clean.
Check for line voltage power on the oil
primary control black and white lead
wires.
Refer to Table C-4 or C-5 for further
troubleshooting information.
