POWER VENTED PROPELLER UNITS
DIRECT SPARK IGNITION
EXPLANATION OF CONTROLS (See Figure 10):
1. The unit heater is equipped with a power vent system
1. The unit heater is equipped with a power vent system
that consists of a power venter motor and blower,
pressure switch, and sealed fl ue collector in place of
the conventional draft diverter.

2. The power venter motor is energized by the room
thermostat through the integrated control board when
a demand for heat is sensed. The pressure switch
measures the flow through the vent system and
energizes the direct spark ignition system beginning
the pre-purge timing when the fl ow is correct.

The pressure switch MUST NOT be
bypassed. The unit MUST NOT be fi red unless the
power venter is operating. An unsafe condition

3. The direct ignition system consists of an ignition
control module and a gas valve. When the pre-
purge period ends, the spark ignition system is
energized, and the gas valve opens to supply gas
to the burners. When the thermostat is satisfi ed, the
vent system is de-energized and the valve closes to
stop the fl ow of gas to the unit.

4. The limit switch interrupts the fl ow of electric current
to the control board, interrupting the fl ow of gas to the

7. The wall ther mostat, supplied optionally, is a
temperature sensitive switch that operates the vent
and ignition system to control the temperature of
the space being heated. The thermostat must be
mounted on a vertical, vibration-free surface free
from air currents and in accordance with the furnished
instructions (also refer to Electrical Section).
