8. FAN AND LIMIT CONTROL

The L6064A temperature sensitive fan switch is
actuated by a helical bi-metal sensing
enclosed in a metal guard,
circulating air blower. This provides a delay
between the burner ignition and blower start-up
to eliminate excessive flow of cold air when
blower comes on. Blower shutdown is also
delayed to remove any residual heat from the
heat
exchanger and improve the annual
efficiency of the furnace. Fan on settings of 110º
F to 130º F (43º C to 55º C) and fan off
of 90º F to 100º F (32º C to 37ºC) will usually be
satisfactory.

9. ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS

The furnace is listed by CSA to the North
American standard. The furnace is factory wired
and requires minimal field wiring. In the United
States, the wiring must be in accordance with the
National Fire Protection Association NFPA-70,
National Electrical Code, and with local codes
and regulations. In Canada, all field wiring
should conform to CAN/CSA
Electrical Code, Part 1, and by local codes,
where they prevail.
The furnace should be wired to a separate and
dedicated circuit in the main

Accessories requiring 120 VAC power sources
such as electronic air cleaners and
transformers may be powered from the furnace
circuit, but should have their own controls. Do
not use the direct drive motor connections as a
power source, since there is a high risk of
damaging the accessories by exposure to high
voltage from the auto-generating windings of the
direct drive motor.

The thermostat heat anticipator should be
adjusted to the amperage draw
control circuit as measured at the
terminals of the thermostat. To reduce the risk of
damaging the heat anticipator, do not
this current with the thermostat connected to the
circuit. Measure the amperage by connecting an
ammeter between the two wires that will connect
to the thermostat "R" and "W" terminals.
