20. After the pre-purge, the flame control energizes the HSI for the heat up period, approximately 30 seconds. At
the end of that period the gas valve is opened for approximately 4 seconds. After the burner has lit and the
primary safety control senses a flame, the burner will remain on until the call for heat is satisfied or operation
is interrupted by a safety device.
21. If the burner fails to light, the flame control will lockout. When this happens press the reset button on the front
of the control to recycle burner and check for improper combustion or week flame signal as a possible cause.
22 Once the main burner flame is established the firing rate will be controlled by the TempTrac control. Refer to
TempTrac manual 34-81.
Burner Combustion Adjustment
Burner combustion should only be adjusted using a combustion analyzer. Do not attempt to adjust burner by
sound or sight. With the burner firing, insert the combustion analyzer probe in the flue vent approximately two
feet from the appliance. See Gas Train Illustration below for details.
With the burner firing and adjusted to low fire, adjust the regulator screw clockwise to increase gas flow or
counter clockwise to decrease flow. The desired CO
2
in the combustion products should be between 7.5 and
8.5%. Do not attempt to adjust combustion based on manifold pressure alone. Manifold pressure should only
be used as a reference point.
a. Once the desired combustion is achieved at low fire, raise the burner firing rate to high fire. Adjust the
valve orifice clockwise to reduce the flow of gas and counter-clockwise to increase the flow of gas in order
to maintain the desired CO
2
in the combustion products between 7.5 and 8.5%
b. When high fire combustion has been reached and combustion is within the proper range, return to low fire
to confirm settings again.
c. CAUTION: If at any point of the modulation range, carbon monoxide is in excess of 300ppm, contact

23 Enable or reconnect any BMS/BAS or OnTrac boiler control interface removed prior to the setup and
adjustment of each boiler.
