NSTALLATION
You have completed the installation. Now its time to make
sure everything works. Qualified electrical and mechanical
personnel should be available during the systems check and
the installation test.
1
Check all electrical connections
Shut off power to the unit and verify that the GasTrac
and its burner controller are adequately grounded.
Inadequate grounding can cause controller error mes-
sages and nuisance alarms.
With power off to the GasTrac and the host dryer, verify
that all terminal connections are tight and all new
wiring has adequate strain relief.
2
Check gas piping and ducting.
Verify that the gas delivery piping is rigidly supported.
Verify that exhaust gas ducting is secured, adequately
insulated and free of leaks.
3
Check the GasTrac fuel train for leaks.
Turn on the gas supply to the GasTrac. Open the primary
gas shutoff valve. Use a gas leak detection device or a
squirt bottle of soapy water to detect leaks around gas pipe
and fitting joints. Open the secondary gas shutoff valve,
and continue checking for leaks using the same procedure.
WARNING: Be sure lines are free of leaks.
To prevent accident or injury, all gas lines, including
the GasTrac's factory-mounted gas train, should be
checked for leaks before firing the burner.
1
Start the host dryer.
Monitor the dryer during the first few minutes of operation
to verify that the start-up operating sequences are correct.
2
Turn on the gas supply to the GasTrac.
All manual shut-off valves in the gas supply line and the
GasTrac fuel train must be in the open position. Before
proceeding, use a detection device or soapy water to check
for gas leaks in the GasTrac fuel train.
3
Turn on main power to the GasTrac.
Turn the main disconnect dial to the I or ON
position.
If everything is installed correctly:
The variable speed control's display will
illuminate.
