Premier Ductable HeatersOwner’s Manual • Premier 80-17039Air Proving SwitchSafety device used to insure that the proper air flowis being achieved before the gas valve is opened.BurnerCast iron component used to channel gas andprovide an area at which the fuel may ignite.Burner Orifi ceBrass metering device used to feed gas to burnerat a specific rate.Direct Spark Ignition Control ModuleElectronic printed circuit board which sends andreceives voltages to various controls in an auto-matic ignition system. An important safety featureof the control board is that it will shut down theentire heater, thereby stopping the flow of fuel gasif burner flame goes out.Fan HousingChamber used for delivering air for efficient airmovement.Fan WheelComponent used in conjunction with the motor andfan housing to pull the hot air from heater and blowit into room for heating (also known as a squirrelcage).Gas Control ValveElectrical device consisting of a low pressure regu-lator and electrical solenoids used for the controlof gas flow to the burner assembly. A feature of thecontrol valve is a built-in gas shut off which may beused to isolate the heater from its gas supply whenservicing.Gas HoseFlexible connector used to convey gas from supplyline in building to heater.Gas Selector ValveAllows easy gas conversion depending on gasbeing supplied at job site. Eliminates the need forchangeout of the burner orifice . (Available on DFheaters only.)Heat ChamberMetal fire box within the appliance that provides anarea where burner flame mixes with combustionair, thereby providing heat.Heater Component FunctionHigh Limit SwitchSafety device wired into the control system whichis used to break an electrical circuit to the gascontrol valve in event of overheat situation. (AllPremier heaters have two limit switches.)IgniterIgnition device used on automatic direct sparkignition control systems. Ignites gas by spark.MotorElectric device used to force preheated airthrough the heater and to circulate heat withina certain area. Converts electrical energy intomechanical energy.RegulatorMechanical device used in gas distribution sys-tems to reduce a higher inlet pressure to a presetlower pressure. The regulator is responsible tosupply a steady outlet pressure to the heater(s)despite changes in inlet pressure, heaterdemand and weather conditions.Selector SwitchElectrical device which is used to allow the enduser to use the heater in either a heating or venti-lation application.Status LightA green light emitting diode (L.E.D.) wired intothe electrical circuit. Provides an easily recogniz-able indication of heater operation.ThermostatElectrical device used as an automatic “on/off”switch which will respond to changes in tempera-ture in a certain area. Can be wired so contactsin the thermostat open or close on temperatureincrease or decrease.TransformerElectrical control used to accept line powersupply primary voltage and reduce it to lowersecondary voltage to operate certain controlsystems.
