CPLPCONV013C00: Installation Instructions
greater than 13 IN. W.C. at the unit connection. A 1/8-in. NPT plugged tapping, accessible for test gauge connection, must be installed immediately upstream of the gas supply connection to the gas valve and downstream of manual equipment shutoff valve.
The newly installed low gas pressure switch is a safety device used to guard against adverse burner operating characteristics that can result from low gas supply pressure. Switch opens at not less than 6.5 IN. W.C. and closes at not greater than 10.2 IN. W.C.
This switch also prevents operation when the propane tank level is low which can result in gas with a high concentration of impurities, additives, and residues that have settled to the bottom of the tank. Operation under these conditions can cause harm to the heat exchanger system.
This normally open switch closes when gas is supplied to gas valve under normal operating pressure. The closed switch completes control circuit. Should an interruption or reduction in gas supply occur, the gas pressure at switch drops below low gas pressure switch setting, and switch opens. Any interruption in control circuit (in which low gas pressure switch is wired) quickly closes gas valve and stops gas flow to burners.
! WARNING
FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD Failure to follow this warning could result in personal injury and/or property damage. Never test for gas leaks with an open flame. Use a commercially available soap solution made specifically for the detection of leaks to check all connections. A fire or explosion may result causing property damage, personal injury or loss of life.
IMPORTANT: Restart unit and leak check all gas connections including the main service connection, gas valve, gas spuds, and manifold pipe plug. All leaks must be repaired before firing unit.
31. Fire unit and verify proper ignition and proper sequence of operation (Table 2). See Table 8 for proper manifold pressure setting for your unit. Adjust the gas valve setting by turning the plastic adjustment screws clockwise to increase pressure and counter-clockwise to decrease pressure. Refer to Table 3 for required rated heating input rates. Replace regulator cover screws when finished (see Fig. 4).
32. With control access panel removed, observe unit heating operation. Watch burner flames to see if they are blue in appearance, and that the flames are approximately the same for each burner (see Fig. 14).
33. Turn off unit, remove pressure manometer and replace the 1/8 in. pipe fitting on the gas manifold (see Fig. 10).
34. Attach warning label (P/N 48DU500076) to visible side of gas valve.
35. Attach conversion label (P/N 48VL500383) above unit rating plate on exterior of unit.
36. Attach completed conversion responsibility label (see Fig. 15, P/N 48VL500384) inside control access panel.
IMPORTANT: Restart unit and leak check all gas connections including the main service connection, gas valve, gas spuds, and manifold pipe plug.

FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD Failure to follow this warning could result in personal injury and/or property damage. Never test for gas leaks with an open flame. Use a commercially available soap solution made specifically for the detection of leaks to check all connections. A fire or explosion may result causing property damage, personal injury or loss of life.
37. After all leaks are eliminated, replace control access panel.
Table 2 Single-Stage Sequence of Operations
For Units With a Separate Blower Fan Control Board
Trial-for-Ignition Sequence: The ignition sequence is to immediately energize the inducer motor on a call for heat.Within approximately 5 sec of the call for heat, the gas valve will open and the igniter will spark. Seven sec will be allowed to prove flame sense on the far burner. Flame-Proving: Once flame is proven, the control will wait an additional 45 sec to energize the indoor blower motor. On removal of the call for heat, the gas valve will immediately shut down, the inducer motor will run for an additional 5 sec, and the indoor blower will run for an additional 45 sec (minimum).
For Units With an Integrated Ignition/Blower Fan Control
Trial-for-Ignition Sequence: The ignition sequence is to turn on the inducer motor for 5 second pre-purge after a call for heat is established. The gas valve will then open and the igniter will spark. Seven seconds will be allowed to prove flame to sense on the far burner. Flame-Proving: Once flame is proven, the control will wait an additional 30 sec to energize the indoor blower motor. On removal of the call for heat, the gas valve will immediately shut down, the inducer motor will run for an additional 5 sec, and the indoor blower will run for an additional 90 sec (minimum).

28. Slide burner rack assembly into base pan. Align burner rack with screws on sheet metal partition and slide assembly back tight to the partition. Replace the screw attaching the burner rack to the base pan removed in step 4. If the Fan partition mounting bracket was removed, slide bracket back into placed and fasten with 2 screws. (See Fig. .)
29. Reconnect the brown wire from the burner assembly to the fan partition panel, using the ground screw saved from Step 8.
30. Remove the 1/8 in. pipe plug on the gas manifold and connect a pressure manometer (see Fig. 10).
31. Reconnect electrical power and gas supply to the unit. For propane applications, the gas pressure must not be less than 11.0 IN. W.C. or greater than 13 IN. W.C. at the unit connection. A 1/8-in. NPT plugged tapping, accessible for test gauge connection, must be installed immediately upstream of the gas supply connection to the gas valve and downstream of manual equipment shutoff valve.
The newly installed low gas pressure switch is a safety device used to guard against adverse burner operating characteristics that can result from low gas supply pressure. Switch opens at not less than 6.5 IN. W.C. and closes at not greater than 10.2 IN. W.C.
This switch also prevents operation when the propane tank level is low which can result in gas with a high concentration of impurities, additives, and residues that have settled to the bottom of the tank. Operation under these conditions can cause harm to the heat exchanger system.
This normally open switch closes when gas is supplied to gas valve under normal operating pressure. The closed switch completes control
circuit. Should an interruption or reduction in gas supply occur, the gas pressure at switch drops below low gas pressure switch setting, and switch opens. Any interruption in control circuit (in which low gas pressure switch is wired) quickly closes gas valve and stops gas flow to burners.
! WARNING
FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD Failure to follow this warning could result in personal injury and/or property damage. Never test for gas leaks with an open flame. Use a commercially available soap solution made specifically for the detection of leaks to check all connections. A fire or explosion may result causing property damage, personal injury or loss of life.
IMPORTANT: Restart unit and leak check all gas connections including the main service connection, gas valve, gas spuds, and manifold pipe plug. All leaks must be repaired before firing unit.
32. Fire unit and verify proper ignition and proper sequence of operation (Table 6). See Table 8 for proper low stage and high stage manifold pressure settings for your unit. Adjust the gas valve setting for high and low stages by turning the plastic adjustment screws clockwise to increase pressure and counter-clockwise to decrease pressure for the respective stages. Refer to Table 7 for required rated heating input rates. Replace regulator cover screws when finished (see Fig. 11).
33. With control access panel removed, observe unit heating operation in both low stage operation and high stage operation. Watch burner flames to see if they are blue in appearance, and that the flames are approximately the same for each burner (see Fig. 14).
34. Turn off unit, remove pressure manometer and replace the 1/8 in. pipe fitting on the gas manifold (see Fig. 10).
35. Attach warning label (P/N 48DU500076) to visible side of gas valve.
36. Attach conversion label (P/N 48VL500383) above unit rating plate on exterior of unit.
37. Attach completed conversion responsibility label (see Fig. 15, P/N 48VL500384) inside control access panel.

Table 6 Two-Stage Sequence of Operations
Inducer Pre-Purge Period: When the inducer motor comes up on high speed, the pressure switch closes, and the ignition control on the furnace board begins a 15 sec pre-purge period. If the pressure switch fails to remain closed, the inducer will remain running. After the pressure switch recloses, the Infinity ignition control will begin a 15 sec pre-purge period. Trial-for-Ignition Sequence: The spark igniter will spark for 3 sec, the main gas valve relay contact closes to energize the gas valve on low stage. After 5 sec, the igniter is de-energized and a 2-sec flame-proving period begins. NOTE: The unit always lights on high speed inducer and low stage gas valve operation. Flame-Proving: When the burner flame is proved at the flame-proving sensor, the furnace control determines what heating stage to run based on feedback from the thermostat. If the thermostat is asking for low stage gas heat, the ignition control will change the inducer speed to low speed and keep the gas valve energized on low stage. If the thermostat is asking for high stage gas heat, the ignition control will maintain running the inducer on high speed and energize the gas valve's high stage relay to increase gas flow.
