EXAMPLE: (0–2000 ft altitude)
Btu heating input = Btu/cu ft X cu ft/hr
Heating value of gas = 1050 Btu/cu ft
Time for 1 revolution of 2-cu ft dial = 82 sec
Gas rate = 88 cu ft/hr (from Table 9)
Btu heating input = 88 X 1050 = 92,400 Btuh
In this example, the orifice size and manifold pressure
adjustment is within ±2 percent of the furnace input rate.
2. Set temperature rise.
Furnace must operate within range of temperature rise
specified on the unit rating plate. Determine the air tem-
perature rise as follows.
a. Place duct thermometers in return and supply ducts as
near furnace as possible. Be sure thermometers do not
“see” heat exchangers so that radiant heat will not affect
thermometer readings. This is particularly important
with straight-run ducts.
b. When thermometer readings stabilize, subtract return-air
temperature from supply-air temperature to determine
temperature rise.
c. Adjust air temperature rise by adjusting blower speed.
Increase blower speed to reduce temperature rise. De-
crease blower speed to increase temperature rise.
WARNING: Disconnect the electrical power before
changing the speed tap. A failure to follow this warning
could result in personal injury.
d. To change blower motor speed selections for heating
mode, remove blower motor lead from control board
HEAT terminal. (See Fig. 14.) Select desired blower
motor speed lead from 1 of the other terminals and
relocate it to HEAT terminal. See Table 10 for lead color
identification. Reconnect original lead on SPARE termi-
nal.
Follow this same procedure for proper selection of COOL speed
selection.
CAUTION: If Model 376CAV066115 is installed in
0.50-in. wc or lower static pressure ductwork, evaporator
coil condensate blow off can occur during cooling opera-
tion. When installed in this manner, do not use high
blower speed tap for cooling.
CAUTION: Recheck temperature rise. It must be within
limits specified on unit rating plate. Recommended op-
eration is at midpoint of rise or above.
3. Set thermostat heat anticipator.
The thermostat heat anticipator must be set to match the
amp draw of the electrical components in the R-W circuit.
Accurate amp draw readings can be obtained at thermostat
subbase terminals R and W. Fig. 19 illustrates an easy
method of obtaining the actual amp draw. The amp reading
should be taken after the blower motor has started. See the
thermostat manufacturer’s instructions for adjusting the
heat anticipator and for varying the heating cycle length.
NOTE: When using an electronic thermostat, set cycle rate for 3
cycles per hr.
V. CHECK SAFETY CONTROLS
The flame sensor, gas valve, and pressure switch were all checked
in the Start-Up Procedures section as part of normal operation.
1. Check primary limit control.
This control shuts off the combustion control system and
energizes the circulating-air blower motor if the furnace
overheats.
The preferred method of checking the limit control is to
gradually block off the return air after the furnace has been
operating for a period of at least 5 minutes. As soon as the
limit has shut off the burners, the return-air opening should
be unblocked. By using this method to check the limit
control, it can be established that the limit is functioning
properly and operates if there is a motor failure.
2. Check blocked vent safeguard switch.
The purpose of this control is to permit the safe shutdown
of the furnace during certain blocked vent conditions.
a. Disconnect power to furnace and remove vent connector
from furnace outlet collar. Be sure to allow time for vent
pipe to cool down before removing.
