LS Series Mechanical Instructions This supplement is designed to address the specifics of the LS Series - See page 12 for specific product features. Product Summary LS Series commercial/residential tube heaters are available from 10 to 30 foot, 25,000 through 50,000 BTU s, natural or LP gas. LS Series are positive pressure, single stage heaters and feature aluminized steel for it s radiant pipes. Specific Mechanical Instructions LS MODELS 25,000 thru 50,000 BTUH IMPORTANT APPROVED VENT PACKAGES Figure 1 3-DSK RTVP-3 Be sure to identify the titanium combustion chamber and place as the first tube section. Do not use the aluminized steel radiant tubing as the first tube (combustion chamber). Radiant Tube Reflector For residential installations it is required that the appliance be vented. Venting must be 3 in. diameter (4 in. diameter for common venting). Refer to the flue venting guidelines, figure 1 and on page 19 of the General Manual. For residential installations mounted below 8 feet, it is required that Protective Guards (part # PG) are installed on heater (see figure 2). Protective Guard (part # PG) Figure 2 LS BAFFLE INSTRUCTIONS ITH TURBULATOR FINS Insert assembled baffles with HEAT Baffle preceeding the PRESSURE Baffles (fig. 1). Allow for turbulator fins so that the key hole is inserted first. All baffles must be placed vertically in the last radiant tube/heat exchanger (fig.2). Figure 1 If the heater is installed with a U or Elbow fitting all baffle must still remain. There may be some instances where the baffle will be cut into two sections. Place as much baffle as possible downstream of the U or Elbow and the remainder of the baffle just before the U or Elbow fitting. 1st 2nd 3rd Key Hole HEAT BAFFLE PRESSURE BAFFLE 3' Figure 2 IMPORTANT: TE FIN DIRECTION & BAFFLE ASSEMBLY 100º 80º TOP VIE LAST RADIANT TUBE Key Hole HEAT BAFFLE Turbulator fins PRESSURE BAFFLE END VIE SIDE VIE CROSS SECTION ITH BAFFLE Figure 3 3
LS Series Electrical Requirements 120 Volt - 60 HZ. Hot surface ignition. Starting Current 4.8 Amps. Running Current 1.1 Amps. 24V controls optional (24VAO). Gas Requirements Manifold Pressure Nat. 3.5 LP. 10.0 Minimum Inlet Pressure Nat. 5.0 LP. 11.0 Maximum Inlet Nat. 14.0 LP. 14.0 Ventilation Requirements Residential models must be vented. Consult the generic supplement for venting instructions and unvented operation. For unvented operation (commercial use only), there must be a positive air displacement of at least 4.0 CFM per 1000 BTU/H for natural gas or 4.5 CFM per 1000 BTU/H for LP gas. VE-4 termination cap must also be used. Maximum vent length for all models is 20 ft. Approved & Required Vent Caps Sidewall Single 3 Duravent sidewall vent kit (3-DSK). 3 Vent terminal (SD-3). Sidewall Dual (Sharing common t-stat) 4 Duravent sidewall vent kit (4-DSK). 4 Vent terminal (SD-4). Theory of Operation Starting Circuit hen voltage is applied to L1 and L2 (see diagram on right), a circuit is completed from L1 via the blower motor to L2. The blower fan is mounted in the control box and rated to supply sufficient air for combustion. Air pressure generated by the blower will cause the normally open burner pressure switch No. 1 to close. Another circuit is completed from L1 to the module ignition control and back to L2. There is a five second delay, then the glo-bar is powered. After the glo-bar has been powered for 45 seconds, the control module causes the gas valve to open and initiates the ignition trial. Power to the glo-bar is shut off during the last two or three seconds of the ignition trial. Running Circuit After ignition, the flame rod monitors the flame. As long as a flame is present, the valve is held open. If the flame is lost, the control acts to close the valve within one second, and a new trial sequence identical to that at start-up is initiated. If proof of flame is not established within 8.5 seconds, the unit will lock out. If lockout occurs, the control can be reset by briefly interrupting the power source. Roof Single Approved 3 rooftop raincap (RTVP-3). Roof Dual (Sharing common t-stat) Approved 4 rooftop raincap (RTVP-4). Important: Do not use sidewall caps for roof venting and do not use roof caps for sidewall venting. 4

LS Series Troubleshooting Flow Chart Turn up thermostat Does the fan turn on? Does the switch light energize? Does the ignitor warm up and glow red? Does valve light come on? Is the light burnt out? If so, replace. Is the power at the heater 120V? Find the source of the electrical problem. Is the ignitor physically damaged? Is the inlet or the outlet of the unit obstructed (i.e. ice, birds nest, dirt)? Remove obstruction. Replace ignitor. Does burner ignite at all? Is the blower obstructed? Remove obstruction & lubricate fan. Check voltage at ignitor during ignition sequence (usually 30-45 seconds after power to the heater). Is it 120V? Replace circuit board. Check for loose wiring or resistance in hose connection to pressure switch. Are they ok? Is there 120V coming to the fan? Correct wiring. The circuit board and/or wiring harness may be faulty and need to be replaced. Repair wiring. Is resistance through the ignitor 45-400S. Replace ignitor. Replace faulty light. The fan is faulty and must be replaced. Replace burned out light. Replace thermal fuse. The heater is equipped with 2 safety pressure switches. The burner switch in the blower compartment is a normally open switch and the exhaust switch in the gas valve compartment is a normally closed switch. Temporarily place jumpers across the terminals of each switch, one at a time. (Be sure to reinstall the cover.) Does the light energize? Temporarily place jumpers across the thermal fuse (be sure to reinstall the cover). Does the light energize? Replace the appropriate switch after verifying the following: * Baffle(s) is in the tube(s) farthest from the burner. * Heater, fan blower, squirrel cage, intake and exhaust are clean and free from dirt and obstructions. * The 4 air intake pipe does not exceed 20 feet and/or 2 elbows. * There is not a negative pressure experienced at the area of air intake (i.e. attic space, high-winds, very tight building). Does valve open? Check to make sure pressure is within min. & max. inputs as indicated on AGA burner rating label. Are both ok? Correct problem. Replace valve. 8
After ignitor is warmed up, does gas valve open? Test for 120V at valve during valve opening period (usually 30-45 seconds after power to the heater). Is there 120V to valve? Check to make sure gas pressure is within minimum and maximum inputs, as indicated on AGA burner rating label. Is gas pressure ok? Possibly, the circuit board and/or wiring harness is faulty. These should be replaced. Correct problem. Replace gas valve. * ARNING: By-passing any pressure switch is for testing purposes only. Do not leave switch by-passed during normal operation or heater s built-in safety mechanisms will be compromised. Does the burner ignite? Is the gas cock in an ON position? Check to make sure gas pressure is within minimum and maximum inputs, as indicated on AGA burner rating label. Is gas pressure ok? Correct problem. Make sure gas lines were purged of air. Does the burner stay on? Does heater stay on until call for heat ends? The following can cause the heater to shut down: * Improper grounding. * High winds. * Taking combustion air from the attic. * Dirty environment. * Baffle not located properly. * Fluctuating gas pressure. Troubleshooting ends. Does the burner stay on for approx. 8 seconds and then shut off? Does the burner come on and then turn off immediately (1 or 2 seconds). Is the heater properly grounded? Is the heater s polarity correct? Check to make sure that the pressure is within minimum and maximum inputs as indicated on the AGA burner rating label. Is gas pressure ok? Correct problem. Correct problem. Exhaust pressure switch may be faulty or there is a restriction in the exhaust. Certain models have a separate glo-bar ignitor and flame rod sensor located next to the glo-bar. Other models have a glo-bar ignitor only, which acts as both an ignitor and flame sensor. Does model in question have glo-bar ignitor only? Consult factory for proper parts. ith voltmeter, check DC voltage at flame rod. Is it greater than 30 Volts DC? Sensing rod is faulty or flame is weak. Check to make sure heater is operating at proper gas pressure as indicated on AGA burner rating label and then replace sensing rod if needed. Check to make sure flame sensor wire is ok and then replace circuit board. 9
