Electrical Wiring; Millivolt Models; Advanced Flame Technology (Aft) Models - Rheem P-M206 Instructions Manual

ELECTRICAL WIRING

NOTE: If it is necessary to replace any of the original
wiring, use 105°C wire or its equivalent, and/or 150°C
wire or its equivalent, like the original wiring.

MILLIVOLT MODELS

The Millivolt models are equipped with a self-generat-
ing electrical system in which the electrical current is
provided by a pilot generator. No external electrical
connections are required.
When installing a remote switch, do not exceed 10 ft of
wiring from the heater. Use 18-gauge stranded wire.

WARNING:
Heaters are factory-wired for
ply. DO NOT attempt to operate at 208 VAC.
The standard field-wiring connection is on the right
side of the heater.
To wire the heater from the left side, follow these
steps :
1. Remove the two (2) screws that hold the front door
to the heater. Remove and set aside door for bet-
ter access to wiring.
2. Remove the four (4) screws that hold down the
junction box to the sway brace.
3. Remove the transformer cover located on the far
right by removing one (1) screw.
4. Remove the two (2) screws that hold down the
transformer.
5. Remove the one (1) screw that holds down the
ground wires.
6. Disconnect P6 connector from PC board.
7. Remove transformer from its current location and
relocate it on the far left side of the heater.
8. Re-route all high-voltage wires and ground wires
through the left jacket side of heater.
9. Re-install P6 connector, ground wires (SPG),
transformer, junction box, front door, and plug right
side with the left side's grommet plug.
NOTE: 7/8" dia. holes not utilized on jacket and control
box can be used for fireman switch, auxiliary control
interface or power vent (D-2) wiring.

CAUTION: Heater must be electrically grounded and
bonded. Bonding lug is provided loose with the
heater. Install bonding lug on lower right or left side
of jacket as necessary for bonding the heater.
Mounting hole is provided on the jacket.
NOTE: Failure to ground the heater electrically
could affect the heater's electronics.
The Electronic Intermittent Ignition Device automati-
cally lights the pilot and main burners upon a call for
heat. The heater is supplied with a dual-voltage trans-
former for 120 VAC or 240 VAC input power hookup.
NOTE: See page 38 for further instructions if using
a time clock/fireman's switch.
