Setup and Installation

Follow these steps for proper installation of the solenoid:

1. Power Disconnection: Before beginning any installation, ensure that the main power supply to the heating system is completely disconnected and locked out to prevent accidental startup.
2. Location Selection: Identify the designated mounting location for the solenoid within your heating system. Ensure it is easily accessible for future maintenance and away from excessive heat or moisture.
3. Mounting: Securely mount the solenoid using appropriate fasteners. Ensure it is oriented correctly according to your system's design. The solenoid is designed for specific flow directions; consult your system's schematics.
4. Piping Connections: Connect the air and oil lines to the solenoid's inlet and outlet ports. Use appropriate thread sealant (e.g., PTFE tape) on all threaded connections to prevent leaks. Ensure connections are tight but do not overtighten.
5. Electrical Wiring: Connect the solenoid's electrical leads to the control circuit as specified by your heating system's wiring diagram. The solenoid operates on 120/60 Volts. Ensure all electrical connections are secure and insulated.
6. Leak Check: After all connections are made, perform a visual inspection for any potential leaks in the piping.
7. System Priming (if applicable): Follow your heating system's instructions for priming the oil and air lines after installation of new components.

Note: Incorrect installation can lead to system malfunction or damage. If unsure, consult a professional HVAC technician.

Operating Instructions

The Clean Burn KIP Air/Oil Solenoid operates automatically as part of the heating system's control sequence. It does not require manual operation once installed and wired correctly.

• System Power-Up: Once installation is complete and verified, restore power to the heating system.
• Automatic Function: The solenoid will open or close based on the electrical signals received from the system's control board, regulating the flow of air and oil as needed for combustion.
• Monitoring: Observe the system's performance after installation. Ensure proper fuel delivery and air mixture. Any unusual noises or operational issues should be investigated immediately.

For detailed operational parameters of your specific heating unit, refer to the main furnace or burner manual.

Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of the solenoid. Always disconnect power before performing any maintenance.

• Annual Inspection: Annually inspect the solenoid for any signs of wear, corrosion, or leaks. Check electrical connections for tightness and integrity.
• Cleaning: If the solenoid is exposed to dust or debris, gently clean its exterior with a dry, soft cloth. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
• Seal Check: Periodically check the integrity of the seals and O-rings, especially if any leaks are suspected. Replace worn seals as necessary.
• Component Replacement: If the solenoid shows signs of malfunction (e.g., failure to open/close, excessive noise, leaks), it should be replaced with an original Clean Burn KIP Air/Oil Solenoid, Model 32322, or an approved equivalent.

Caution: Internal components of the solenoid are not user-serviceable. Attempting to disassemble the solenoid may void any warranty and could lead to damage.
