6. Clamshell Heat Exchanger
G61MP units use an aluminized steel primary and stain-
less steel secondary heat exchanger assembly. Heat is
transferred to the air stream from all surfaces of the heat
exchanger. The shape of the heat exchanger ensures
maximum efficiency.
The combustion air inducer pulls fresh air through the air
intake box. This air is mixed with gas in the burner venturi
and at the corbel orifices. The gas / air mixture is then
burned at the entrance of each clamshell. Combustion
gases are then pulled through the primary and secondary heat
exchangers and exhausted out the exhaust vent pipe.
7. Flame Rollout Switches (S47)
Flame rollout switch S47 is a high temperature limit located
on each side of the burner box. Each furnace is equipped
with two identical switches. The limit is a N.C. SPST manu-
al-reset limit connected in series with the primary limit S10.
When S47 senses rollout, the circuit breaks and the ignition
control immediately stops ignition and closes the gas
valve.
If unit is running and flame rollout is detected, the gas valve
will close and ignition control will be disabled. Rollout can
be caused by a blocked heat exchanger, flue or lack of
combustion air. The switch is factory set to trip (open) at
250°F and cannot be adjusted. The switch can be manually
reset. To manually reset a tripped switch, push the reset but-
ton located on the control.
8. Primary Limit Control (S10)
Figure 8 shows the primary limit (S10) used on G61MP units
located in the heating vestibule panel. S10 is provided with a
shield on some models (figure 8) and must not be removed.
Note orientation of shield and limit if limit is replaced. When ex-
cess heat is sensed in the heat exchanger, the limit will open.
Once the limit opens, the furnace control energizes the
supply air blower and de−energizes the gas valve. The limit
automatically resets when unit temperature returns to nor-
mal. The switch is factory set and cannot be adjusted.
9. Backup Secondary Limit Control (S113)
(G61MP−090, 110, 135 only)
Backup secondary limit control S113 is a N.C. auto−reset
switch located on the combustion air inducer. S113 acts as
a backup to primary limit S10 in the event of an indoor blow-
er failure. S113 contacts open when temperature on the
CAI reaches 142°.
10. Gas Valve (GV1)
The G61MP uses a two−stage gas valve manufactured by
Honeywell (figure 35) or White Rodgers (figure 36). The
valves are internally redundant to assure safety shut−off. If
the gas valve must be replaced, the same type valve must
be used.
24VAC terminals and gas control knob or switch are located
on the valve. All terminals on the gas valve are connected to
wires from the electronic ignition control. 24V applied to the ter-
minals energizes the valve.
Inlet and outlet pressure taps are located on the valve. A regu-
lator adjustment screw is located on the valve.
LPG change over kit s are available from Lennox. Kits include
burner orifices and a gas valve regulator conversion kit.
The burner box is sealed and operates under a negative
pressure. A pressure hose is connected from the burner
box to the gas valve. The gas valve senses the pressure in
the burner box and changes gas valve outlet (manifold)
pressure based on changes in the burner box pressure.
The intent is to compensate for different vent configura-
tions which can greatly affect the rate of the unit.

11. Combustion Air Inducer
Prove Switch (S18)
All G61MP units are equipped with combustion air prove
switches located on the combustion air inducer housing.
G61MP−045 and −070 (figure 10) units have two combustion
air proving switches. G61MP−090, −110 and −135 units are
equipped with two dual prove switch assemblies" consist-
ing of two switches acting as one. See figure 9. The switches
are connected to the cold end header box by means of a
flexible hose that monitors negative air pressure in the cold
end header box.
The switches are a single-pole single-throw proving switch
electrically connected to the furnace control. The purpose of
the switch is to prevent burner operation if the combustion
air inducer is not operating or if the flue becomes obstructed.
