ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE (ESD) PRECAUTIONS
CAUTION: Electrostatic discharge can affect electronic
components. Take precautions during furnace installation
and servicing to protect the furnace electronic control.
Precautions will prevent electrostatic discharges from
personnel and hand tools which are held during the
procedure. These precautions will help to avoid exposing
the control to electrostatic discharge by putting the
furnace, the control, and the person at the same electro-
static potential.
1. Disconnect all power to the furnace. DO NOT TOUCH
THE CONTROL OR ANY WIRE CONNECTED TO THE
CONTROL PRIOR TO DISCHARGING YOUR BODY'S
ELECTROSTATIC CHARGE TO GROUND.
2. Firmly touch a clean, unpainted, metal surface of the
furnace chassis which is close to the control. Tools held in
a person's hand during grounding will be satisfactorily
discharged.
3. After touching the chassis you may proceed to service the
control or connecting wires as long as you do nothing that
recharges your body with static electricity (for example; DO
NOT move or shuffle your feet, DO NOT touch un-
grounded objects, etc.).
4. If you touch ungrounded objects (and recharge your body
with static electricity), firmly touch furnace again before
touching control or wires.
5. Use this procedure for installed and uninstalled (un-
grounded) furnaces.
6. Before removing a new control from its container, dis-
charge your body's electrostatic charge to ground to protect
the control from damage. If the control is to be installed in
a furnace, follow items 1 through 5 before bringing the
control or yourself into contact with the furnace. Put all
used AND new controls into containers before touching
ungrounded objects.
7. An ESD service kit (available from commercial sources)
may also be used to prevent ESD damage.
APPLICATIONS
I. GENERAL
Some assembly and modifications are required for furnaces
installed in any of the 4 applications shown in Fig. 1. All drain and
pressure tubes are connected as shown in Fig. 5. See appropriate
application instructions for these procedures.
II. UPFLOW APPLICATIONS
An upflow furnace application is where furnace blower is located
below combustion and controls section of furnace, and conditioned
air is discharged upwards.
A. Condensate Trap Location (Factory-Shipped Orien-
tation)
The condensate trap is factory installed in the blower shelf and
factory connected for UPFLOW applications. A factory-supplied
tube is used to extend the condensate trap drain connection to the
desired furnace side for field drain attachment. See Condensate
Trap Tubing (Factory-Shipped Orientation) section for drain tube
extension details.
B. Condensate Trap Tubing (Factory-Shipped Orienta-
tion)
NOTE: See Fig. 5 or tube routing label on main furnace door to
confirm location of these tubes.
1. Collector Box Drain, Inducer Housing Drain, Relief Port,
and Pressure Switch Tubes.
These tubes should be factory attached to condensate trap
and pressure switch ready for use in UPFLOW applications.
These tubes can be identified by their connection location
and also by a color label on each tube. These tubes are
identified as follows: collector box drain tube (blue label),
inducer housing drain tube (violet label or molded), relief
port tube (green label), and pressure switch tube (pink
label).
2. Condensate Trap Drain Tube
The condensate trap drain connection must be extended for
field attachment by doing the following:
a. Determine location of field drain connection. (See Fig. 2
or 5.)
NOTE: If internal filter or side Filter/Media Cabinet is used, drain
tube should be located to opposite side of casing of return duct
attachment to assist in filter removal.
b. Remove and discard casing drain hole plug button from
desired side.
c. Install drain tube coupling grommet (factory-supplied in
loose parts bag) in selected casing hole.
d. Slide drain tube coupling (factory-supplied in loose parts
bag) through grommet ensuring long end of coupling
faces blower.
e. Cement 2 factory-supplied 1/2-in. street CPVC elbows to
the rigid drain tube connection on the condensate trap.
(See Fig. 5.) These elbows must be cemented together
and cemented to condensate trap drain connection.
NOTE: Failure to use CPVC elbows may allow drain to kink and
prevent draining.
f. Connect larger diameter drain tube and clamp (factory-
supplied in loose parts bag) to condensate trap and clamp
securely.
g. Route tube to coupling and cut to appropriate length.
h. Attach tube to coupling and clamp securely.
C. Condensate Trap Location (Alternate Upflow Orien-
tation)
An alternate location for the condensate trap is the left-hand side
of casing. (See Fig. 2 and 6.)
NOTE: If the alternate left-hand side of casing location is used,
the factory-connected drain and relief port tubes must be discon-
nected and modified for attachment. See Condensate Trap Tubing
(Alternate Upflow Orientation) section for tubing attachment.
To relocate condensate trap to the left-hand side, perform the
following:
1. Remove 3 tubes connected to condensate trap.
2. Remove trap from blower shelf by gently pushing tabs
inward and rotating trap.
→
3. Install casing hole filler cap (factory-supplied in loose parts
bag) into blower shelf hole where trap was removed.
4. Install condensate trap into left-hand side casing hole by
inserting tube connection stubs through casing hole and
rotating until tabs snap into locking position.
→
5. Fill unused condensate trap casing holes with plastic filler
caps (factory-supplied in loose parts bag).
D. Condensate Trap Tubing (Alternate Upflow Orienta-
tion)
NOTE: See Fig. 6 or tube routing label on main furnace door to
confirm location of these tubes.
1. Collector Box Drain Tube
Connect collector box drain tube (blue label) to condensate
trap.
