Sequence of Operation
1
2
Thermostat calls for heat:
.
The relay closes on the control board, sending line voltage (115-120 volts) from “inducer” terminals #5 and 3 on the
control board to the induced draft blower.
The blower starts and when sufficient vacuum is achieved, the pressure switch closes and completes the 24 volt
circuit between terminals 1 and 3 on the Control Plug to the the board, allowing the ignition sequence to proceed.
The blower “purges” any remaining combustion products from the previous cycle for 15 seconds before allowing the
pilot to light. This is the pre-purge period of the ignition cycle.
3 Trial for ignition (three 90 second ignition trials, with 75
second pauses between trials).
Control Board simultaneously sends:
1. 24 volts from control pin terminal #8, to “MV/PV”
terminal of gas valve (common terminal).
2. 24 volts from control pin terminal #2, to “PV”
terminal of gas valve to establish
gas flow at pilot.
3. Low current high voltage from “spark”
terminal, to generate spark at the pilot and
ignite pilot gas flow.
4. Pilot flame proving signal (measured in
micro-amps). from the “sense” terminal, to
prove pilot flame.
4
Once pilot flame is proven, sparking will stop.
Once sparking stops, 24 volts is sent from control pin
5
terminal #5 on control board, to “MV” terminal on gas valve
to establish main burner gas flow. Main burners ignite from
the pilot flame.
The control board constantly monitors pilot flame through
the flame sensor rod. If pilot flame is lost, pilot and main
burners are shut down. After a 75 second inter-purge
period, the control will attempt to re-light the pilot beginning
at sequence 3 above.
Main burner fires until the thermostat is satisfied. The control
7
board interrupts 24 volts through the gas valve circuit. Pilot
and main burners are turned off.
8
The induced draft blower shuts off 5 seconds after the
gas valve closes. This is the post-purge period.
LOCKOUT CONDITION
Control board will go into “Soft Lockout” if the pilot cannot be lit
after 3 ignition trials. The water heater display indicates a lockout
condition by showing an error code number (62 or 63) with
WIRING DIAGRAM
“Service Needed” in the display window. Refer to error codes in the
diagnostic section of this Service Manual. In a “Soft Lockout” condition,
the control will wait for 60 minutes and then make 2 more attempts to light the pilot and establish the main burners.
Soft lockout reset is accomplished by depressing the lower right button under “Reset” for 3 seconds.
If the water heater should reach 200 degrees F, then the high limit control will shut off the burners and the water heater will
go into a “Hard Lockout”. Error code 65 will be shown in the water heater display. The control can only be reset in the
“service mode”, which is detailed in the next section of this Service Manual.
If the exhaust or intake terminals become blocked during operation or if the blower motor fails, the pressure switch will open
and error code 29 will appear in the display. When the condition is corrected, the error code will disappear and the water
heater will resume normal operation. No resetting of the control display is needed for the pressure switch error code.

Connect a digital manometer to the tubing for the pressure
switches and determine the average reading. See table at
right for pressure switch settings and minimum readings
required. Is the pressure switch reading at least 0.20"
above the switch reading for the model tested (see chart at
right)?
PDV100T360 models:
Note: During normal hot running conditions, the
pressure switch readings should be at least 0.20" higher
than the above readings where the pressure switch will
open.
Check intake and exhaust vent terminals outside the
building. Is there any blockage from debris (leaves, ice,
snow, paper, etc.). If so, clear intake or exhaust vent
terminals. Pressure switch should close and the burners
should fire.
PDV80,100S-150,200 Models with 3" PVC vent: Maximum
Distance of 40 feet with one 90 deg. elbow for intake or
exhaust (subtract 5 feet for each additional elbow).
For venting with 4" PVC vent: Maximum distance of 55 feet
with one 90 deg. elbow for intake or exhaust (subtract 5
feet for each additional elbow).
Check the total equivalent vent length by adding up the
total number of elbows and the straight lengths of vent pipe
for the intake and exhaust pipe (or coaxial vent pipe for
PDV-T model series). See table at right for maximum
distances. If the venting distance is excessive, reduce the
number of elbows or route the vent terminals to a shorter
distance outside the building.
PDV80S,100S-250 Models with 4" PVC vent: Maximum
distance of 55 feet with one 90 deg. elbow for intake or
exhaust (subtract 5 feet for each additional elbow).
PDV80T300, PDV100T360 Models with coaxial venting
system: Maximum venting distance of 19 feet 6 inches
with one 90 deg. elbow. Each additional elbow reduces
the venting distance by 39".
If the venting system and vent terminals are O.K., but the
pressure switch reading is still low, check the pressure
switch tubing to make sure there are no small holes or
kinks. Make sure there are no drops of condensate in the
tubing. Check the pressure switch tubing connection fitting
and pressure tap to make sure it is not clogged with dirt.
Blow through tubing to verify that the pressure taps and
tubing are clear and not leaking.
See installation instruction manuals supplied with the
water heater for further details on proper venting
installations.
PDV-S MODELS: Check the vent safety thermal switch
near the outlet of the blower (see photo at right). Press the
red reset button. (See photo on next page). If you feel a
slight click, the temperature was excessive and the switch
opened. Check to be sure the burner access screws are
tight and the gasket is in good condition (see section on
servicing the burners)
Checking pressure switch contacts.
Contacts are open if blower is
operating and there is 22-26 volts
measured between the two contacts
(as in photos)
If the pressure switch readings are at least 0.20" w.c.
above the above pressure switch settings for the installed
model and the switch does not close, then replace the
pressure switch with the same setpoint.

opened. Check for loose or leaking burner access panel (see
section on servicing burners)
Check pressure switch tubing to the pressure switch. Make
sure tubing does not have kinks, holes, condensate, or dirt
blocking air pressure to the switch. The tubing to the
blower tap attaches to the - (minus) tap on the pressure
switch.
Induced Draft Models (D80T725 & D65T625):
Induced Draft Models use a single tap pressure switch to
measure vacuum in the flue collector. The pressure
switch is located inside the control box (see photo to left).
Connect a digital manometer to a tee in the pressure
switch tubing and measure the vacuum with the blower
operating. The vacuum should be in the range of -1.70"
to -2.10" w.c. The pressure switch contacts will open at
-1.25" and close by -1.40" w.c. If the vacuum is below -
1.50", check to make sure the flue damper is fully open
when the blower is operating. Make sure the damper and
rod are not binding. Make sure there are no restrictions
in the venting system and that is at least 8" in diameter.
Venting is for vertical gravity venting only. Insure that
there is sufficient combustion air to the utility room.
