Fig. 4 ­ Burner Orifice

A96249

For Single Stage and Two Stage Furnaces:

Determine natural gas orifice size and manifold pressure for correct input at installed altitude by using Table 4 for Single Stage furnaces and Table 5 for Two-Stage furnaces.

1. Obtain yearly heat-value average (at installed altitude) for local gas supply.

2. Obtain yearly specific-gravity average for local gas supply.

3. Find installation altitude in Table 4 or Table 5.

For Canada altitudes of 2000 to 4500 ft., use U.S.A. Altitudes of 2001 to 3000 ft. in Table 4 or Table 5.

4. Find closest natural gas heat value and specific gravity in Table 4 or Table 5.

5. Follow heat-value line and specific-gravity line to point of intersection to find orifice size and manifold pressure settings.

For Modulating Furnaces:

Follow Steps 1 and 2 above.

For Step 3 use:

Table 6 for all sizes (20,000 BTUh/Max-Heat/8,000 BTUh Min-Heat per burner) except 60,000 BTUh models in a 21-in. wide cabinet.

Table 7 for 60,000 BTUh models in a 21-in. wide cabinet. (20,200 BTUh Max- Heat/8,000 BTUh Min-Heat per burner)

1. For both tables, follow heat-value line and specific-gravity line to point of intersection to find orifice size and manifold pressure settings.

For all furnaces:

Furnace gas input rate on furnace rating plate is for installations at altitudes up to 2000 ft. (610 M).

In the U.S.A.; the input rating for altitudes above 2000 ft. (610 M) must be reduced by 2 percent for each 1000 ft. (305 M) above sea level.

In Canada, the input rating must be derated by 5 percent for altitudes of 2000 ft. to 4500 ft. (610 M to 1372 M) above sea level.

The Conversion Kit Rating Plate accounts for high altitude derate.

GAS INPUT RATE INFORMATION
See furnace rating plates, see Fig. 5, Fig. 6, or Fig. 7, for input rate. The input rate for natural gas is determined by manifold pressure and orifice size.
Modulating gas valve must be set for Maximum Heat first and then set for Minimum heat on Modulating furnaces.
Two-Stage gas valve is recommended to adjust Low Heat first and then adjust High Heat on Two-Stage furnaces.
Furnace gas input rate on rating plate is for installations at altitudes up to 2000 ft. (610 M).
In the U.S.A.; the input rating for altitudes above 2000 ft. (610M) must be reduced by 2 percent for each 1000 ft. (305 M) above sea level.
In Canada; the input rating must be derated by 5 percent for altitudes of 2000 ft. (610 M) to 4500 ft. (1372 M) above sea level.
The Conversion Kit Rating Plate accounts for high altitude derate.

Modulating Gas Valve
! CAUTION
UNIT DAMAGE HAZARD Failure to follow this caution may result in gas valve damage.
DO NOT force the rotary adjustment switch on the modulating gas valve. DO NOT turn the rotary adjustment switch faster than one click per second when adjusting manifold pressure. Gas valve will be damaged if excessive force is used on the rotary switch.
For proper operation and long term reliability, the manifold pressure must be adjusted as specified on the conversion kit rating plate.
The modulating furnace manifold pressure is set at two points. The first point is Maximum Heat. The second point is Minimum Heat. Do not adjust Intermediate Heat manifold pressure. Intermediate Heat manifold pressure can be checked as part of the temperature rise, but is not adjustable. Always adjust Maximum Heat first, then Minimum Heat.
NOTE: Use care when performing adjustments. Gas valve adjustment is performed by turning a rotary adjustment switch inside the gas valve with a small straight blade screwdriver. Excessive force can break or bend the rotary adjustment switch making it non-adjustable.
To adjust manifold pressure to obtain input rate for Maximum Heat:
1. Enable two-stage thermostat with low heat on furnace control by: a. Furnace controls with DIP switches, turn SW1-2 ON and SW4-2 OFF at the furnace control. b. Furnace controls with 3 digit display, navigate to (Htt) and select (2St-LHt). See furnace installation manual for additional instructions.
2. Jumper the R to W/W1 and W2 thermostat connections at the furnace control.

4. To adjust the Maximum Heat manifold pressure, Slowly turn the rotary adjustment switch counterclockwise to decrease manifold pressure or clockwise to increase manifold pressure.
5. Turn rotary adjustment switch no more than one click per second until you obtain the required manifold pressure.
Main burner flame should be clear blue, almost transparent.
To adjust manifold pressure to obtain input rate for Minimum Heat: 1. Remove the jumper from W2 at the thermostat connections at the
furnace control.
2. Wait until the burners and the blower transitions to Minimum Heat.
3. Verify the Minimum Heat manifold pressure is correct, based on the manifold pressure table on Conversion Kit Rating Plate.
4. To adjust the Minimum Heat manifold pressure, Slowly turn the rotary adjustment switch counterclockwise to decrease manifold pressure or clockwise to increase manifold pressure.
5. Turn rotary adjustment switch no more than one click per second until you obtain the required manifold pressure. This adjustment will not affect the previous Maximum Heat adjustment.
6. When correct input is obtained, remove jumpers across thermostat connections to terminate the call for heat. Wait until the blower off delay is completed.
7. Return thermostat type setting on furnace control back to desired setting based on your thermostat: a. Furnace controls with DIP switches, set SW1-2 and SW4-2 at furnace control per the furnace installation manual.

b. Furnace controls with 3 digit display, navigate to (Htt) and select (1St) for a single-stage thermostat, (2St-LHt) for a two-stage thermostat running low heat, or (2St-iHt) for a two-stage thermostat running intermediate heat. See furnace installation manual for additional instructions.
