14. The ground and surrounding terrain must be cleared of any combustible vegetation and other combustible materials when the heater is utilized outside.

15. Eventually, like all electrical/mechanical devices, the thermostat can fail. Thermostat failure may result in an underheating condition. The thermostat should be tested to make sure it turns the heater on and off within a temperature differential of ±3°F.

16. Take time to understand how to operate and maintain the heater by using this Owner’s Manual. Make sure you know how to shut off the gas supply to the building and also to the individual heater. Contact your fuel gas supplier if you have any questions.

17. Any defects found in performing any of the service or maintenance procedures must be eliminated and defective parts replaced immediately. The heater must be retested by properly qualified service personnel before placing the heater back into use.

The vaporization of propane is affected by several factors: the surface area of the container, the liquid level of propane, temperature surrounding the container, and the relative humidity. All of these factors are specific to a site.

Therefore, a degree of experience and judgement is required to select the proper propane supply.

Although experience is the best guide, the following recommendations can be used as a starting point. The table is based on experience in northern climates where cold weather and high humidity are prevalent in the winter.

If more or less favorable conditions prevail at a specific site, adjustments can be made on the basis of experience.

For initial start-up after heater installation, follow steps 1-6.

For normal start-up, simply set the thermostat above room temperature.

1. Connect electrical cord to an approved electrical outlet.

2. Set thermostat to desired room temperature.

3. This heater has a rocker style selector switch located on the back of the heater. This switch allows you to either heat or ventilate (no heat). See Fig. 9 for selector switch positions.

FIG. 9

Start-Up Instructions

B. VVentilation

When the selector switch is positioned to Vent, the red light will NOT be on. The fan motor will start, but the igniter will not spark, nor will ignition occur. This feature is used typically when heat is not needed, but air circulation is required. The heater will not cycle on its thermostat setting. To discontinue the ventilation feature, position the switch to off or heat. If you desire to use the ventilation feature, the connection of the gas supply (i.e. hose and regulator) to the fuel source is not needed.

a. Open all manual fuel supply valves. Check for gas leaks using an approved leak detector. The gas control valve on the heater has a manual shut-off feature incorporated into the valve assembly. Make sure the indicator on the valve is turned to the ON position. See Fig 10.

b. When the selector switch is positioned to Heat, a red light within the switch will be on. At this point, the fan motor will start, the igniter will spark and ignition will occur. The thermostat will cycle the heater on or off based upon temperature setting.

FIG. 10

Position the switch to midpoint.

ATTENTION

■ It is normal for air to be trapped in gas hose on new installations. The heater may attempt more than one trial for ignition before air is finally purged from line and ignition takes place.

4. The direct spark ignition (DSI) control board within this heater is self-diagnostic. The board works in conjunction with a light emitting diode (L.E.D.) built into the selector switch. The L.E.D. will flash a specific continuous flash pattern depending on a problem that occurs. Match specific flash pattern given by L.E.D. to troubleshooting label applied to heater. The troubleshooting label identifies the causes of the problem as it relates to specific flash patterns and remedies to correct the problems. See also “Troubleshooting Data” within this Owner’s

Manual.

5. The gas control valve is a step opening control. When a call for heat occurs, the valve will open to a rate equal to half its total heat output. Depending upon temperature requirements and thermostat setting, the valve will then either remain at low heat rate before thermostat is satisfied, or the valve will open completely to its total capacity. If the valve opens to its full capacity, it is designed to change back to half its rate before thermostat is satisfied.

6. Do not exceed input rating stamped on nameplate or manufacturer’s recommended burner orifice pressure for size orifice(s) used. Make certain that the primary air supply to main burner is open and free of dust, dirt and debris for complete, proper combustion.

ON

OFF

Shut-Down Instructions

If the heater is to be shut down for cleaning, maintenance, or repair, follow steps 1-5. Otherwise, set thermostat to

“Off” or “No Heat” for standard shut-down.

1. Close the fuel supply valve.

2. Allow the heater to burn off any fuel gas remaining in the gas supply line.

3. Set the thermostat to “Off” or “No Heat”.

4. Position selector switch to “Off.”

5. Disconnect the heater from its gas and electrical supplies.

Note: When the thermostat cycles the heater off, the fan motor will continue to run for 1 minute after burner shut down, allowing the heat chamber to cool. After 1 minute, the fan motor will shut off.

Cleaning Instructions

WARNING

■ This heater contains electrical and mechanical components in the gas management, and safety systems.

■ Such components may become inoperative or fail due to dust, dirt, wear and aging.

■ Periodic cleaning and inspection as well as proper maintenance are essential to avoid serious injury or property damage.

1. Before cleaning, shut off all gas supply valves and disconnect electrical supply.

2. The heater should have dir t or dust removed periodically: a. Before each use give the heater a general cleaning using compressed air or a soft brush or dry rag on its case and internal components. At this time, dust off the motor case to prevent the motor from over-heating.

b. At least once a year, give the heater a thorough cleaning. At this time, remove the fan and motor assembly and brush or blow off the fan blade assembly. Additionally, make sure the burner air inlet venturi ports and the casting are free of dust accumulation.

WARNING

Do not use a pressure washer, water, or liquid cleaning solution on any gas controls. Use of a pressure washer, water, or liquid cleaning solution on the control components can cause severe personal injury or property damage due to water and/or liquids:

■ In electrical components, and wires causing electrical shock or equipment failure.

■ On gas control valves causing corrosion which can result in gas leaks and fire or explosion from the leak.

Clean all components of the heater with pressurized air, a dry brush, or a dry cloth.

Maintenance Instructions

1. The area surrounding the heater shall be kept clear and free from combustible materials, gasoline, and other flammable vapors and liquids.

2. Have your gas supplier check all gas piping annually for leaks or restrictions in gas lines.

3. Regulators must be periodically inspected to make sure the regulator vents are not blocked. Debris, insects, insect nests, snow, or ice on a regulator can block vents and cause excess pressure at the heater.

4. Regulators can wear out and function improperly.

Have your gas supplier check the date codes on all regulators installed and check delivery pressures to the heater to make sure that the regulator is reliable.

13

5. Check all wiring associated terminals and electrical components within the heater for corrosion, frayed or cut insulation, tight connections, etc. Repair or replace as necessary.

6. Review all heater markings (i.e. wiring diagram, warnings, start-up, shut-down, troubleshooting, etc.) at the time of maintenance for legibility. Make sure none are cut, torn, or otherwise damaged. Any damaged markings must be replaced immediately by contacting the L.B. White Co., Inc. Dataplates, startup and shut-down instructions and warnings are available at no cost. A nominal charge will be applied for wiring diagrams.

7. Check the heater’s fan drive belt. Make sure the belt is not cracked. If so, replace it. Additionally, ensure the belt is not slipping, that belt tension is proper and sheaves are properly aligned and not worn. These procedures should always be done after the heater has been used and whenever the heater is being readied initially for the heating season.

8. Lubricate the bearings once a month. Use NLGI grade

2 mineral oil lithium or lithium base grease.

WARNING

■ Heater surfaces are hot for a period of time after the heater has been shut down.

■ Allow the heater to cool before performing service, maintenance, or cleaning.

■ Failure to follow this warning will result in burns causing injury.

WARNING

■ Do not disassemble or attempt to repair any heater components or gas train components.

■ All component parts must be replaced if defects are found.

■ Failure to follow this warning will result in fire or explosions, causing property damage, injury, or death.

1. Close the fuel supply valve to the heater and disconnect the electrical supply before servicing unless necessary for your service procedure.

2. Clean the heater’s orifice with compressed air or a soft, dry rag. Do not use files, drills, broaches, etc. to clean the orifice hole. Doing so will enlarge the hole, causing combustion or ignition problems. Replace the orifice if it cannot be cleaned properly.

Service Instructions

GENERAL

WARNING

■ Do not disassemble the gas control valve.

■ Do not attempt to replace any components of the gas control valve.

■ The gas control valve must be replaced if any physical damage occurs to the control valve assembly.

■ Failure to follow this warning will result in fire or explosions, leading to injury or death to humans, and property damage.

ATTENTION

■ The gas control valve in this heater is a two stage control. This will allow the heater to operate at a decreased heat output when heating requirements are less than severe. The decreased output is approximately one half the rated output of the heater.

■ The following explains a typical procedure to be followed in checking gas pressures.

■ The gas pressures will vary depending upon fuel type.

■ Consult the dataplate on the heater or page 4 in this manual for specific pressures to be used in conjunction with this procedure.

■ Gas pressure measured at the inlet to the gas valve is

Inlet Pressure and gas pressure measured at the outlet of the gas valve is Burner Manifold Pressure.

MATERIALS REQUIRED

Description

Gas pressure gauges capable of reading up to 35 in. W.C. (may also be ordered from L.B. White, part # 00764)

A. PPreparation

1. Disconnect the heater from the electrical supply and close the fuel supply valve to the heater.

2. Open the case access panel at burner end of heater.

3. Brush or blow off any dust or dirt in the vicinity of the gas control valve.Open the fuel supply valves to the heater and reconnect the heater electrical supply.

1. Locate the gas control pressure taps. See Fig. 29.

Remove the pressure tap plugs using a 3/16 in. allen key.

2. Securely connect pressure gauges at these points.

3. Open the fuel supply valves to the heater and reconnect the heater electrical supply.

4. Start the heater

Gas Pressure Checks

2. Do the readings at the inlet and outlet pressure gauges agree with that specified on the dataplate?

If so, then no further checking or adjustment is required. Proceed to section D.

3. If the inlet pressures do not agree with that specified on the dataplate, then the regulator controlling gas pressure to the heater requires adjustment.

4. If the inlet pressure is correct but the burner manifold pressure does not agree with that specified on the dataplate, then the high and low heat output feature of the gas control valve requires adjustment.

5. Turn the thermostat down to its lowest setting.

Remove the cap from the high and low heat adjusting screws at the two stage pressure regulator on the gas control valve.

6. Slowly turn up the thermostat until a pressure is read no greater than 2 in. W.C. (LP) or .8 in.W.C. (N.G.) at the outlet pressure gauge. If less than 2 in. W.C.

(L.P.) or .8 in. W.C.. (N.G.) is read, the low heat setting at the regulator on the gas control will require adjusting. Turn clockwise to increase, or counterclockwise to decrease.

7. Turn the thermostat completely up. You should see the gas pressure increase from 2 in. W.C. (L.P.) or .8

in.W.C. (N.G.) at low heat to 8.0 in.W.C.(L.P.) or 3.5 in.

W.C. (N.G.) high heat. If less or greater than 8.0 in.

W.C. (LP) or 3.5 in. W.C. (N.G.), the high heat setting must be adjusted clockwise or counterclockwise accordingly until proper pressure is achieved.

1. Once the proper inlet and burner manifold pressures have been confirmed and/or properly set, close the fuel supply valve to the heater and allow the heater to burn off any gas remaining in the gas supply line.

2. Disconnect the heater from its electrical supply and close fuel supply valve.

3. Remove the gauges.

4. Install pressure tap plugs.

5. Open fuel supply valve and reconnect electrical supply to heater. Start the heater and check for gas leaks.

7. Set thermostat to desired temperature.

Troubleshooting Information

READ THIS ENTIRE SECTION BEFORE BEGINNING

TO TROUBLESHOOT PROBLEMS.

WARNING

■ This heater can start at any time.

■ Troubleshooting this system may require operating the unit with line voltage present and gas on. Use extreme caution when working on the heater.

■ Failure to follow this warning may result in property damage, personal injury or death.

The following troubleshooting guide provides systematic procedures for isolating equipment problems. This guide is intended for use by a QUALIFIED GAS HEATER SERVICE

PERSON. DO N

UNLESS YYOU H

NOT AATTEMPT TTO S

The following pieces of test equipment will be required to troubleshoot this system with minimal time and effort.

Multimeter - for measuring AC voltage and resistance.

Gauge - for checking inlet and outlet pressures at the gas control valve against dataplate rating.

■ Visually inspect equipment for apparent damage.

■ Check all wiring for loose connections and worn insulation.

Refer to the system operation sequence in this section to gain an understanding as to how the equipment operates during a call for heat.

Understanding the sequence of operation of the ignition module and related components is esential as it will relate directly to problem solving provided by the flow charts.

The ignition control module is self-diagnostic. The red light, located within the selector switch, will flash a specific light pattern depending upon the problem which is diagnosed.

To effectively use the flow charts, you must first identify what the problem is by the light pattern of the L.E.D. (light emitting diode) diagnostic light. If the light is flashing, the flash pattern will be followed by a pause and then a repeat of the flash pattern until the problem is corrected. Refer to the tables below to identify what page to refer to when troubleshooting any problems.

The L.E.D. light will only be on when the selector switch is positioned to HEAT and the thermostat is set above room temperature. The light will not be on when the selector switch is positioned to VENT.

Air Proving Switch

Safety device used to insure that the proper air flow is being achieved before the gas valve is opened.

Belt

Friction drive component used for transmission of power from motor to fan shaft. Used in conjunction with motor and fan sheaves.

Burner

Cast iron component used to channel gas and provide an area at which the fuel may ignite.

Burner Orifice

Brass metering device used to feed gas to burner at a specific rate.

Direct Spark Ignition Control Module

Electronic printed circuit board which sends and receives voltages to various controls in an automatic ignition system.

An important safety feature of the control board is that it will shut down the entire heater, thereby stopping the flow of fuel gas if burner flame goes out.

Fan Housing

Chamber used for delivering air for efficient air movement.

Fan Wheel

Component used in conjunction with the motor and fan housing to pull the hot air from heater and blow it into room for heating (also known as a squirrel cage).

Gas Control Valve

Electrical device consisting of a low pressure regulator and electrical solenoids used for the control of gas flow to the burner assembly. A feature of the control valve is a built-in gas shut off which may be used to isolate the heater from its gas supply when servicing.

Gas Hose

Flexible connector used to convey gas from supply line in building to heater.

Heat Chamber

Metal “fire box” within the appliance that provides an area where burner flame mixes with combustion air, thereby providing heat.

Heater Component Function

High Limit Switch

Safety device wired into the control system which is used to break an electrical circuit to the gas control valve in event of overheat situation.

Igniter

Ignition device used on automatic direct spark ignition control systems. Ignites gas by spark.

Motor

Electric device used to force preheated air through the heater and to circulate heat within a certain area. Converts electrical energy into mechanical energy.

Motor Relay

Electrical component wired between ignition control and motor. Used to feed voltage to motor upon receipt of voltage from ignition control.

Regulator

Mechanical device used in L.P. and natural gas distribution systems to reduce a higher inlet pressure to a preset lower pressure. The regulator is responsible to supply a steady outlet pressure to the heater(s) despite changes in inlet pressure, heater demand and weather conditions.

Selector Switch

Electrical device which is used to allow the end user to use the heater in either a heating or ventilation application.

Sheaves

Grooved friction drive components responsible for transmission of power from motor to fan shaft. Used in conjunction with V-Belt.

Thermostat

Electrical device used as an automatic “on/off” switch which will respond to changes in temperature in a certain area. Can be wired so contacts in the thermostat open or close on temperature increase or decrease.

Transformer

Electrical control used to accept line power supply primary voltage and reduce it to lower secondary voltage to operate certain control systems.
