Description

The Y99AB-4 Test Kit combines four test functions

to enable service contractors to test BASO® controls

and thermocouples in the field. These four functions

are:

Millivoltmeter with 0 to 50 and 0 to 1000 ranges

for checking the open and closed circuit

millivoltage of thermocouple leads.

Performance Tester with a source of power for

holding open BASO power units while taking

open circuit millivolt readings of the

thermocouple when the main burner is in

operation.

Milliammeter with a 0 to 500 (50 on scale)

range for checking the current dropout range of

BASO power unit assemblies. (There are

10 milliamperes for each division on the dial.)

Continuity Tester for detecting a broken or

open circuit.

Definitions

Automatic Pilot - A device employed with gas burning

equipment, which automatically shuts off the gas supply

to the burner being served by either direct or indirect

means when the pilot flame is extinguished. The pilot

burner may or may not be constructed integrally with the

device.

Closed Circuit - Millivoltage measured with the BASO

control attached to the thermocouple.

Couple Lead - The thermocouple, current carrying

conductors, and attaching nut.

Dropout - The point, defined by a millivolt or milliampere

reading, at which the electromagnet releases the

armature.

Milliampere - One thousandth of an ampere.

Abbreviation mA used to check BASO control dropout.

Millivolt - One thousandth of a volt. Abbreviation mV

used to measure thermocouple output.

Open Circuit - Millivoltage measured without the BASO

control attached to the thermocouple.

Power Unit - Electromagnet unit that is internally

connected to the seat of the gas valve and cuts off the

gas when pilot flame fails. Also called a power unit

assembly or hood.

Reset Button - The button that is manually depressed to

place the BASO control in operation.

Thermocouple - The pair of dissimilar metallic elements

joined to produce a millivoltage when the junctions are at

different temperatures.

General Instructions

When using the test kit, insert the plugs securely

and squarely into the jacks. The thermocouple

adapters and nuts must be clean and tight. Any

meter fluctuation caused by the movement of these

parts may be due to loose connections. Poor

connections cause false readings. Three “D” size

batteries are required.

WARNING: Risk of Fire or Explosion.

In order to test the thermocouple under actual

flame conditions, it is necessary to hold the BASO

power unit open with the DC power pack provided

with the test kit. This eliminates the safety function

provided by the BASO power unit. Care must be

exercised during this test to ensure that gas is not

permitted to flow to the main burner.

CAUTION: Risk of Equipment Damage.

This meter is designed and calibrated for

Direct Current (DC) voltages up to 1000 millivolts

only. Any attempt to measure Alternating Current

(AC) voltage or DC voltage over 1000 millivolts will

damage the meter.

Open Circuit Millivolt Readings

Refer to Figure 8 through Figure 10 for typical

thermocouple-operated gas valve,

electrically-operated gas valve, and safety shutoff

device connection diagrams.

Perform the following procedure for taking open

circuit millivolt readings.

1. Shut off the gas supply at the main manual

shutoff valve.

2. Disconnect the thermocouple from the BASO

control.

3. Attach the test cable lead 44549-8 to the

thermocouple. Connect the red clip to the

copper tubing of the thermocouple and the black

clip to the terminal at the end of the

thermocouple (see Figure 2).

4. Set the slide switch on the meter to the 0-50 or

0-1000 position.

5. Re-establish pilot flame.

6. The millivolt reading should agree with the

values listed in Table 1 with a normal pilot flame

(see Figure 3).

Note: When taking an open circuit millivolt reading on

a junction block thermocouple, the junction block

terminal must be shorted (see Figure 4). This will isolate

the thermocouple from the high limit.

Fixed Load Millivolt Readings

Perform the following procedure for taking fixed load

millivolt readings:

1. Disconnect the thermocouple from the BASO

control and attach the adapter assembly

(64119-1D) to the thermocouple.

2. Attach the test cable lead 44549-8 to the

adapter assembly. Connect the red clip to the

copper tubing of the adapter assembly and the

black clip to the control end of the adapter

assembly (see Figure 5).

3. Set the slide switch on the meter to the 0-50 or

0-1000 position.

4. Reestablish pilot flame.

5. The millivolt reading should agree with the

values listed in Table 1 with a normal pilot flame

(see Figure 3).

Note: When taking a fixed load millivolt reading

on a junction block thermocouple, the junction

block terminal must be shorted (see Figure 4).

Dropout Testing

Refer to Figure 8 through Figure 10 for typical

thermocouple-operated gas valve,

electrically-operated gas valve, and safety shutoff

device connection diagrams.

Perform the following procedure using the

milliammeter for dropout testing.

1. Shut off the gas at the main manual shutoff

valve.

2. Disconnect the thermocouple lead from the

BASO control.

3. Connect the test cable lead 44549-7 to the

milliamperes jack on the test kit meter, connect

the other end to the BASO control

(see Figure 6).

4. Set the slide switch on the meter to the 0-500

(50 on scale) position.

5. Turn the adjust knob on the meter clockwise to

the full-scale deflection of the needle. Reset the

control by pressing in the reset button on the

control firmly.

6. Turn the adjust knob on the meter

counterclockwise slowly until the BASO control

power unit releases. The milliampere reading at

the moment of release is the dropout point of the

BASO power unit. Take two more readings by

the same process, and average the readings.

The milliampere dropout point must lie within the

high and low range listed in Table 2.

7. Pilot and main burner should extinguish within a

few seconds. If flames do not extinguish, refer to

the Troubleshooting section.

Continuity Testing

CAUTION: Risk of Equipment Damage.

Turn off the power to the appliance. When the

meter is being used as a continuity tester, it should

never be put across line voltage potential.

Perform the following procedure for continuity

testing.

1. Connect the test cable lead 44549-4 to the

milliampere jack on the test kit meter.

2. Set the slide switch on the meter to the 0-500

(50 on scale) position.

3. Connect the red and black alligator clips

together; turn the adjust knob clockwise until the

needle is above 500 (50 on scale). If unable to

get a reading of 500, check the alligator clip

connection or replace the batteries.

4. Test for open circuits by touching or connecting

the alligator clips to terminals or points in the

circuit.

Closed Circuit Test

Perform the following procedure for closed circuit testing.

1. Disconnect the thermocouple from the BASO

control.

2. Attach the adapter assembly (64119-1D) to the

control and thermocouple.

3. Remove the shorting jumper clip from the adapter

assembly.

4. Set the slide switch on the meter to the 0-50

position.

5. Attach the test cable lead 44549-8. Connect the red

clip to the copper tubing of the thermocouple and the

black clip to the adapter block terminal

(see Figure 7).

6. Depress the reset button on the BASO control and

light the pilot using a safe lighting procedure. Hold

the reset button in for approximately 60 seconds or

until the output is high enough to hold the energized

valve.

7. Observe output. The millivolt reading should agree

with the values listed in Table 1.
