Wiring
WARNING
Do not install the damper blade plug if the vent damper is
installed on a system with a continuous or standing pilot. The
hole provides the minimum vent area required by code for
safe operation.
Severe illness or death possible. Prevent
explosion or carbon monoxide poisoning.
1. Use dual automatic valve combination gas
controls or two separate single function main gas
valves with the D896.
2. Do not use the D896 with an L8148 or L8124 with
a manual/automatic switch because the switch
can override the safety interlocks in the system

system with either an intermittent pilot or direct ignition. The
plug will increase system efficiency. See Fig. 4.
To install the D896:
1. Push the female end of the vent damper over the
section of vent pipe coming from the furnace or boiler,
but after the draft hood. Push the section of the vent
pipe coming from the chimney over the male end of the
vent damper.
2. Secure the vent damper to the vent pipe with 1/2 in. (12
mm) sheet metal screws. Use only the holes provided.
3. Visually inspect the venting system for proper pitch.
Pitch must comply with local codes or ANSI Z223.1—
NFPA54.
CAUTION
1. Remove the shorting plug on the S8600, S8610
or L8148E before attaching the wiring harness.
2. Do not permit device wiring to contact high
temperature surfaces.
3. Label all wires prior to disconnecting when
servicing controls. Wiring errors can cause
explosion or carbon monoxide buildup.
Important
To install an additional gas valve:
Do not operate the system with the D896 unplugged.
Once the system has operated with the D896
plugged into the S8600, S8610 or L8148E, the
control module will not operate.
1. Shut off the gas and electricity to the gas burner. (Use
the manual shutoff valve in the supply line to the
appliance.)
2. Locate a position in the supply line between the
appliance automatic gas valve and the burner.
3. At the determined position, install an approved
appropriately-sized, single-function automatic gas valve
downstream from the existing automatic gas valve.
Follow the valve manufacturer instructions for flow
direction and position.

D896 AUTOMATIC VENT DAMPER
ANSI STANDARDS
EXHIBIT A
Procedure For Safety Inspection of an Existing Appliance Installation
The following procedure is intended as a guide to aid in
determining that an appliance is properly installed and is in a
safe condition for continuing use.
10. Determine that the pilot(s), when provided, is burning
properly and that main burner ignition is satisfactory by
interrupting and reestablishing the electrical supply to
the appliance in any convenient manner.
This procedure is predicated on central furnace, boiler and
water heater installations, and it should be recognized that
generalized procedures cannot anticipate all situations.
Accordingly, in some cases deviation from this procedure may
be necessary to determine safe operation of the equipment:
a. This procedure shall be performed prior to installation
of the automatic vent damper device.
If the appliance is equipped with a continuous pilot(s), test the
pilot safety device(s) to determine if it is operating properly by
extinguishing the pilot(s) when the main burner(s) is off and
determining, after 3 minutes, that the main burner gas does
not flow upon a call for heat.
b. If it is determined there is a condition which could result
in unsafe operation, the appliance should be shut off
and the owner advised of the unsafe condition. Do not
install the automatic vent damper device until the
unsafe condition has been corrected.
If the appliance is not provided with a pilot(s), test for proper
operation of the ignition system in accordance with the
appliance manufacturer’s lighting and operating instructions.
11. (a) Visually determine that main burner gas is burning
properly; i.e., no floating, lifting or flashback. Adjust
the primary air shutter(s) as required.
(b) If the appliance is equipped with high and low
flame controlling or flame modulation, check for
proper main burner operation at low flame.
12. Test for spillage at the draft hood relief opening after 5
minutes of main burner operation. Use the flame of a
match or candle, or smoke from a cigarette, cigar or
pipe.
13. Turn on all other fuel-burning appliances within the
same room so they will operate at their full inputs.
Follow lighting instructions for each appliance.
14. Repeat Steps 11 and 12 on the appliance being
inspected.
15. Return doors, windows, exhaust fans, fireplace
dampers and any other fuel-gas burning appliances to
their previous conditions of use.
The following steps are to be followed in making the safety
inspection:
1. Conduct a gas leakage test of the appliance piping and
control system downstream of the shutoff valve in the
supply line to the appliance.
2. Visually inspect the venting system for proper size,
horizontal pitch and vent termination, and determine
there is no blockage or restriction, leakage, corrosion
and other deficiencies which could cause an unsafe
condition.
3. Determine that the chimney or vent is acceptable to the
authority having jurisdiction.
4. Shut off all gas to the appliance and shut off any other
fuel-gas burning appliance within the same room. Use
the shutoff valve in the supply line to each appliance.
5. Inspect burners and crossovers for blockage and
corrosion.
16. Applicable only to furnaces—Check both the limit
control and the fan control for proper operation. Limit
control operation can be checked by blocking the
circulating air inlet or temporarily disconnecting the
electrical supply to the blower motor and determining
that the limit control acts to shut off the main burner
gas.
6. Applicable only to furnaces—inspect heat exchanger for
cracks, openings or excessive corrosion.
7. Applicable only to boilers—inspect for evidence of water
or combustion product leaks.
8. Insofar as is practical, close all building doors and
windows and all doors between the space in which the
appliance is located and other spaces of the building.
Turn on clothes dryers. Turn on any exhaust fans, such
as range hoods and bathroom exhausts, so they will
operate at maximum speed. Do not operate a summer
exhaust fan. Close fireplace dampers. If, after
completing Steps 9 through 14, it is believed sufficient
combustion air is not available, refer to local codes, or
in the absence of local codes, to the National Fuel Gas
Code, ANSI Z223.1-1988 (NFPA 54), for guidance.
9. Place in operation the appliance being inspected.
Follow the lighting instructions. Adjust thermostat so
appliance will operate continuously.
17. Applicable only to boilers—
(a) Determine that the water pumps are in operating
condition.
(b) Test low water cutoffs, automatic feed controls,
pressure and temperature limit controls, and relief
valves in accordance with the manufacturer’s
recommendations to determine they are in
operating condition.

EXHIBIT B
Procedure for Installing Electrically Operated Automatic Vent Damper Devices on Existing Appliances
This procedure is intended as a guide to aid in safely
installing an electrically operated or mechanically actuated
automatic vent damper device on an existing appliance.
10. Insofar as is practical, close all building doors and
windows and all doors between the space in which the
appliance is located and other spaces of the building.
Turn on clothes dryers. Turn on any exhaust fans, such
as range hoods and bathroom exhausts, so they will
operate at maximum speed. Do not operate a summer
exhaust fan. Close fireplace dampers.
This procedure is based on the assumption that the history of
the specific appliance has been one of safe and satisfactory
operation.
11. Place appliance in operation. Follow the lighting
instructions. Adjust thermostat so appliance will operate
continuously.
12. Test for spillage at the draft hood relief opening after 5
minutes of main burner operation. Use the flame of a
match or candle, or smoke from a cigarette, cigar or
pipe.
13. (a) Visually determine that main burner gas is burning
properly; i.e., no floating, lifting or flashback. Adjust
the primary air shutter(s) as required.
This procedure is predicated on central furnace, boiler and
water heater installations, and it should be recognized that
generalized procedures cannot anticipate all situations.
Accordingly, in some cases deviation from this procedure may
be necessary to determine safe operation of the equipment.
The following steps are to be followed in making the
modifications:
1. Perform a safety inspection of the existing appliance
installation. See Exhibit A for the recommended
procedure for such a safety inspection.
2. Shut off all gas and electricity to the appliance. To shut
off gas use the shutoff valve in the supply line to the
appliance.
3. Install the automatic vent damper device in strict
accordance with the manufacturer’s installation
instructions. Make certain the device is not located in
that portion of the venting system which serves any
appliance other than the one for which the damper is
installed.
(b) If the appliance is equipped with high and low
flame controlling or flame modulation, check for
proper main burner operation at low flame.
14. Determine that the pilot(s), when provided, is burning
properly and that main burner ignition is satisfactory by
interrupting and reestablishing the electrical supply to
the appliance in any convenient manner.
If the appliance is equipped with a continuous pilot(s), test the
pilot safety device(s) to determine if it is operating properly by
extinguishing the pilot(s) when the main burner(s) is off and
determining, after 3 minutes, that the main burner gas does
not flow upon a call for heat.
4. Make certain wiring connections are tight and wires are
positioned and secured so they will not be able to
contact high temperature locations.
5. When an additional automatic valve has been
incorporated or an existing gas control replaced,
conduct a gas leakage test of the appliance piping and
control system downstream of the shutoff valve in the
supply line to the appliance.
If the appliance is not provided with a pilot(s), test for proper
operation of the ignition system in accordance with the
appliance manufacturer’s lighting and operating instructions.
15. Applicable only to furnaces—Check both the limit
control and the fan control for proper operation. Limit
control operation can be checked by blocking the
circulating air inlet or temporarily disconnecting the
electrical supply to the blower motor and determining
that the limit control acts to shut off the main burner
gas.
6. Visually inspect the modified venting system for proper
horizontal pitch.
7. Check that the damper and gas valve(s) are in the
correct operating sequence.
(a) The damper must be in the full open position
before the gas valve(s) opens.
(b) The damper must remain in the full open position
while the gas valve(s) is open.
(c) The gas valve(s) must be closed before damper
begins its return to the closed position.
(d) The damper shall remain in the closed position
during the off cycle of the appliance.
16. Applicable only to boilers—
(a) Determine that the water pumps are in operating
condition.
(b) Test low water cutoffs, automatic feed controls,
pressure and temperature limit controls, and relief
valves in accordance with the manufacturer’s
recommendations to determine they are in
operating condition.
8. Determine the amperage draw of the gas control circuit
and damper device.
(a) Check appliance transformer for adequate
capacity.
17. Label the damper device (see 1.7.5) with information as
to:
(b) Check heat anticipator in comfort thermostat to
determine if it is properly adjusted.
9. Sequence the appliance through at least three normal
operating cycles.
