airflow switch to close. The high airflow switch protects against profile plate failures that cause excessive
airflow through the burner. In the event that the pressure drop across the burner is not in the range of the
airflow switch, gas flow to the burner is stopped by the Flame Safety Control.
The graphs below illustrate the approximate cfm going through the unit vs. the differential pressure
measured by the airflow switch. Simply measure the differential profile pressure drop at the airflow tubes
in the unit and match that value up to the matching unit curve below. This will show the cfms traveling
through the burner and will indicate proper airflow or airflow problems (too much or not enough). If the
pressure drop is outside of the .15” to .80” range, the blower rpm should be adjusted to fix airflow.

Modulating Gas System
The second system, the Maxitrol modulating gas system, consists of a
temperature selector dial, a discharge air sensor, an amplifier, and a
modulating gas valve. The two types of Maxitrol systems used are the Maxitrol
14 series or the Maxitrol 44 series. The Maxitrol 14 utilizes a discharge air
sensor and modulates the Maxitrol gas valve to provide discharge air to match
the selected temperature on the temperature selector. The Maxitrol 44 utilizes a
room temperature sensor to control room temperature as well as a discharge air
sensor in order to control the discharge air temperature. The modulating gas
valve controls the amount of gas flow to the burner based on the temperature
rise needed. When the modulating gas valve is all the way open and achieving
the maximum BTUs and temperature rise of the unit, it is called “high fire”.

High Temperature Limit
One of the back up safety device is the
high temperature limit switch.
This switch is a mechanical thermostat that measures the temperature
inside the unit downstream of the burner. If the factory-set temperature
of 170°F is exceeded, it will signal the FSC to turn off the burner. This
requires a manual reset of the high temperature limit. This insures that
the discharge does not exceed 185°F.
