3. TURBULATOR LENGTHS & LOCATION IN SYSTEM NOTE: Improper location of a turbulator can cause malfunction of the heater, property damage, and will void the heater warranty. Tubes with turbulators inside are clearly labeled for easy identification. ALL turbulators are located within the BASE LENGTH (shortest length) of the tube system. One or two tubes added to system base length are regular empty tubes with no turbulators. Each turbulator is 36 inches in length by 2.25” wide (see Table below).
4. COMBUSTION AIR DUCTING Do not install filters on the combustion air intake. Ensure adequate clearance around the air intake to allow sufficient combustion air supply to the burner. Air duct is typically 4” diameter, but inputs 200,000 and greater require a minimum 5” diameter duct (reduce to 4” at burner connection). Any 4” duct can be increased to 5” diameter to allow up to an additional 20 feet of duct length. Combustion air duct must be constructed of noncombustible material.
5. FLUE VENTING - RADIANT TUBE HEATER Effective January 1, 2019: Changes to the ANSI/CSA standard that gov- IMPORTANT erns Radiant Tube Heaters specify the following appliance CATEGORIES and VENTING: ◼ Vertical Vent Through Roof (Category I): When vented vertically, this tube heater series operates with a negative static vent pressure and a vent temperature that does not result in excessive condensate in the vent and is defined as a Category I appliance. Refer to details below.
1/2” sheet metal screws ◼ Install a minimum 12” [305 mm] straight vent connector before any Tee or 90° Elbow ◼ The connection of vent components must be secured as specified in the installation instructions by the vent manufacturer. ◼ For vertical vent, any horizontal vent section will slope upwards away from the heater not less than 1/4 inch rise per foot of run.
TABLE 4 COMBINED SYSTEM LENGTH: TUBE + AIR DUCT + VENT Modulating Maximum Input (Btuh) 80,000 115,000 155,000 205,000 250,000 Do Not Exceed Maximum Combined System Length Max. Air Duct Length (by Duct Diameter) With 4” Air Duct With 5” Air Duct 4” Ø 5” Ø Max.
Vertical vent through the roof (Category I): It is the sole responsibility of the installer to adhere to all current local codes and/or ANSI Z223.1 latest editions for all venting requirements, and practices. Also adhere to instructions below, and the instructions of the vent manufacturer. Use vent materials certified for Category I. All models of this series heater are certified Category I for vertical venting. See FIG. 5.
Horizontal vent through the sidewall (Category III): ◼ When installed with a horizontal vent through a sidewall, this heater is a Category III appliance, and venting materials must be approved for Category III applications. ◼ All vent must be installed in accordance with local codes or, in the absence of local codes, with the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54. ◼ All vent must installed in accordance with these instructions, and the instructions of the vent manufacturer.
USA specific horizontal vent requirements: The vent terminal of an appliance with an input up to 50,000 Btu/hr (14.7kW) shall be installed with a 9 inch [230mm] vent termination clearance from any air opening into a building, and an appliance with an input over 50,000 Btu/hr (14.7kW) shall have at least a 12 inch [305 mm] vent termination clearance. The bottom of the vent terminal and the air intake shall be located at least 12 inches [305 mm] above grade.
6. GAS SUPPLY: MINIMUM / MAXIMUM & MANIFOLD PRESSURES ◼ Refer to General Manual for requirements on gas supply and flexible gas connection to the heater. TABLE 5 MODULATING GAS SUPPLY — LINE AND MANIFOLD PRESSURES INPUT [BTUH] 80,000 115,000 155,000 205,000 250,000 GAS TYPE LINE PRESSURE [ INCHES W.C.] MANIFOLD PRESSURE [ INCHES W.C.] NG 5.0 — 14.0 2.2 — 3.5 PROPANE 11.0 — 14.0 5.5 — 10.0 NG 5.0 — 14.0 1.8 — 3.5 PROPANE 11.0 — 14.0 4.5 — 10.0 NG 5.0 — 14.0 2.0 — 3.5 PROPANE 11.

9. FENWAL DSI: SEQUENCE OF OPERATION / FLAME RECOVERY / SAFETY LOCKOUT Power Up / Stand By Upon applying 24 volts power to 24VAC, the control will reset, perform a self check routine, initiate full time flame sensing, and enter the thermostat scan state. Heat Mode When a call for heat is received from the thermostat supplying 24 volts to TH, the control checks the pressure switch for normally open contacts.
Flame Fault If at any time the main valve fails to close completely and maintains a flame, the full time flame sense circuit will detect it and energize the combustion blower. Should the main valve later close completely removing the flame signal, the combustion blower will power off following the optional post purge period. MOUNTING AND WIRING The Fenwal DSI Control 24 VAC Tube Heater (905000020) is not position sensitive and can be mounted vertically or horizontally.
SPARK IGNITER SET UP Use the following diagram to check the Igniter gap. If the gap is incorrect all adjustments should be made to the GROUND PRONG/PIN ONLY! DO NOT BEND THE IGNITER PRONG!!!! USE THE BLACK BARS BELOW AS A GUIDE FOR ADJUSTMENT. USE THE BARS THAT COINCIDE WITH THE FORMAT & SIZE OF THIS PUBLICATION . IF this manual is in 3/16” 1/4” 8.5” x 11” “booklet” format (pages folded in half) then use these bars OR IF this manual is printed 11” “full page” format 8.

13. FIELD CONVERSION OF FUEL GAS: HE+ SERIES MODULATING BURNERS Tube Heater Burners are factory produced and supplied to operate on natural gas. A field conversion kit is available from Rinnai and must be used to convert from natural gas to propane gas, or vice versa. Each kit contains the required parts and specific instructions to make the gas conversion. Refer to the table below for kit part numbers.
14. HIGH ALTITUDE INSTALLATIONS When installed above the altitude stipulated below for USA, the input must be de-rated by 4% for each 1000 ft above the altitude listed. Refer to the tables below for orifice size and restrictions that apply to high altitude installation (including total system length restrictions). Check with your local utility regarding the gas supply and the de-rating of this appliance. Maintain gas supply pressure indicated in Section 4.
