COMBUSTION AIR SYSTEM

Model: CAS-3

This product is designed for use with any oil burning furnace, water heater, or

boiler with 120 VAC control systems. It may also be used with more than one

appliance. The CAS unit mechanically draws air into a structure and

disperses it near the combustion air intake of an appliance. If an optional

Vacuum Relief Valve (VRV) is used, the incoming air is tempered before

entering the structure's airspace. Refer to Diagram A and B for guidance in

setting up the CAS system based on the size and length of the connecting

duct-work and the input rating of the appliance.

This device MUST be installed by a qualified agency in accordance with the manufacturers installation

instructions.

The definition of a qualified agency is: any individual, firm, corporation or company which either in person or through a

representative is engaged in, and is responsible for, the installation and operation of gas appliances, who is experienced

in such work, familiar with all the precautions required, and has complied with the requirements of the authority having

jurisdiction.

GENERAL SYSTEM OPERATION

1. The thermostat (wall thermostat, or aquastat) calls for heat and energizes a relay which activates

the CAS unit. After the CAS fan has come up to speed, an internal air pressure switch closes and

completes the circuit to allow the burner to fire. If the appliance is power vented, the venter and

CAS activate simultaneously. After the CAS comes up to speed, a pressure switch in the unit

closes and allows the appliance to fire.

2. After the heating requirement has been satisfied, the thermostat circuit will open and deactivate

the burner and CAS unit.

3. For power vented systems with a post purge device, the power venter and CAS operate for a

period of time after the burner has shut off to purge remaining flue gases from the vent system.

INSTALLATION SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

CAUTION: This device must be installed by a qualified installer in accordance with the manufacturer's

installation instructions.

1. This combustion air system must be installed by a qualified installer. "Qualified Installer" shall

mean an individual who has been properly trained or a licensed installer.

2. Plan the system layout before installation to avoid the possibility of accidental contact with

concealed wiring or plumbing inside walls.

3. Disconnect power supply before making wiring connections to prevent electrical shock and

equipment damage.

SIZING AND SETUP

Diagrams A and B and Table 1 shows the maximum equivalent length and size of duct pipe that

should be used when installing the CAS system. Using these charts will help ensure that the proper

amount of air is drawn into the structure as needed by the appliance. The defined regions shown

correspond to the CAS's airflow characteristics when using 4" and 6" diameter sheet metal duct pipe

and the included orifice ring. Follow the guidelines below to properly size and setup the CAS.

1. Determine the maximum input firing rate of the appliance, or the maximum total firing rate of

multiple appliances that will be used.

2. Position the motorized CAS unit according to the guidelines in the "Installation" section.

3. Determine where the intake air vent hood will be located based on the recommendations in the

"Installation" section.

4. The CAS is equipped with a High/Low motor speed control switch. When calculating the

maximum equivalent feet, determine which speed is appropriate for the application. (Refer to

Diagram A or B or Table 1)

5. Calculate the total equivalent length of duct pipe including elbows and fittings needed to connect

the CAS unit to the vent hood. (Refer to Diagram A or B or Table 1)

6. On Diagram A or B, locate the point that corresponds to the firing rate along the horizontal axis

and the equivalent length of the duct pipe along the vertical axis, if using for make up air.

7. The point should fall within one of the three regions on the table. Each region corresponds to a

duct pipe diameter of 4", 4" using the orifice ring, and 6" respectively. If the point falls near the

rightward border of a particular region then the VRV is not necessary. If the point falls away from

the rightward border, then a VRV is needed to reduce the amount of air drawn in.

Page 3

8. Draw a horizontal line on Diagram A or B that passes through the point located in step 5. The

position of the point along this line relative to the left and right borders of the region it falls into

indicates the relative position that the balance weight of the VRV should be adjusted to. If the

point falls near the leftward border of a region, then the VRV balance weight should be adjusted to

it's minimum position. This corresponds to turning the balance weight screw as far counter-

clockwise as possible.

EXAMPLE: An oil fired appliance firing at 1.0 gph where the CAS unit needs to be placed 30

equivalent feet from the intake hood.

From Diagram A or B, the point at 1.0 gph on the "Oil Firing Rate" scale and 30

equivalent feet falls in the "4 inch Duct, Hood, and Orifice Ring" region. The point

is in between the left and right boundary of the region. The left boundary is the

edge of the graph, the right boundary is the diagonal line that says "4 inch Duct,

Hood & Orifice Ring." Therefore, place the Orifice Ring into the inlet on the CAS

so that it sits on the ledge above the fan. It does not matter which way the Orifice

Ring is turned as long as it is pushed down against the ledge completely. Use 4"

diameter pipe to connect the vent hood and the CAS unit. Install a VRV and the

included 4x6 Increaser on top of the CAS unit and adjust the balance weight to

3/4 of the distance of it's full adjustment range from it's minimum setting. The

minimum setting is with the balance weight turned all of the way counter-

clockwise.

INSTALLATION

PLACEMENT OF THE CAS UNIT

The motorized CAS unit should be located on a flat horizontal

surface within the space of the appliance or appliances, and try to

be within 3 feet of the combustion air intake of the appliance. Two

mounting brackets are provided for securing the unit against a solid

structure, such as a wall, column, or the side of the appliance itself.

Use the included screws to attach the brackets to the CAS housing

as shown in Figure 3. Secure the brackets to a solid structure with

appropriate fasteners. It is not required to use the brackets as long

as the unit is located so that it may not be bumped, moved, or

tipped over. The optional Vacuum Relief Valve (VRV) should be

placed directly on the air inlet of the CAS unit if using 6” duct or if

using 4” duct, should be placed above reducer. (See Figure 1)

Refer to Diagram A to determine if the VRV is needed. The VRV

should be oriented so that the axis of the swinging gate is

horizontal.

ASSEMBLING THE WEIGHTS ON THE VRV

Refer to Figure 2 to assemble the weight assembly, hex nut, and

knurled nut to the VRV gate. After the weight is correctly

positioned, tighten the hex nut against the gate to prevent the

weight assembly from moving during operation.

INTAKE AIR HOOD LOCATION

The 4" galvanized vent hood should be located on an outside wall

maintaining minimum clearances to other intake and exhaust vents

in accordance with the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1,

manufacturer's recommendations and/or local codes which are

applicable. The hood should be located at least 10 feet from a

power vented exhaust outlet and should be on the same wall.

INSTALLATION OF INTAKE AIR HOOD

After determining the location of the vent hood, cut a 4-1/2 inch

round or square hole in the wall. Insert the vent hood and secure

with appropriate fasteners. Take precautions to avoid interference

with wiring or other plumbing in the wall to be cut.

INSTALLATION OF DUCT

Refer to Diagram A or B to determine what size pipe is needed.

Connect the duct pipe from the top of the CAS unit to the Vent

Hood in the wall. If using 4" diameter pipe attach the provided 4" x

6" Pipe lncreaser Fitting to the top of the CAS unit. The duct

should be supported with appropriate mounting straps from floor

joists, walls, or other solid structures. The straps should be placed

so as to keep the ductwork out of passageways. (See Figure 1) A

minimum of 12 feet of pipe should be run to help temper outside air

being drawn in. The VRV may also be installed near the air intake

hood and adjusted to mix with outside air to help temper air in cold

climates.

WIRING INSTRUCTIONS

Wire the CAS unit in accordance with the National Electric Code and applicable local codes. UNIT

MUST BE GROUNDED. Check the ground circuit to make certain that the unit has been properly

grounded. The wiring should be protected by an over-current circuit device rated at 15 amperes.

CAUTION must be taken to ensure that the wiring does not come in contact with any heat source. All

line voltage and control circuits between the CAS unit and the appliance MUST be wired in

accordance with the National Electrical Code for Class I wiring or equivalent.

Remove the wiring access cover to access the wiring terminals. Use the enclosed conduit

connector(s) to route the appropriate wires through the CAS housing. The incoming ground wire must

be attached to the green colored ground screw near the wire terminals. The following sections

MAINTENANCE

1. Inspect the system annually to ensure proper operation by observing that the fan activates when a

call for heat occurs and deactivates when the call for heat is satisfied.

2. Disconnect power to the CAS unit and repeat Step 1. Note: The unit should not run and the

appliance should not fire in this condition.

3. Inspect the duct pipe for cracks and security to the CAS unit, VRV (if installed), and vent hood.

4. Clear any obstructions, if present, from the inlet of the vent hood and the outlet of the CAS unit.

5. Periodically, the fan blade chamber may need cleaning. First, disconnect the power supply to the

CAS. Next, disconnect the duct pipe from the unit. Then remove the top pan and clean the fan

housing area as needed. Reattach the top pan, reconnect the duct pipe and the power supply.

Figure 9 - Figure 9 shows how the DIP-1 should be attached to the CAS. Note that

the 1/4" O.D. plastic tubing on the top of the CAS unit must be cut and a 3-way male

barb TEE suitable for 3/16" I.D. tubing placed as shown in order to connect the DIP-1.
