Malfunction
Probable Causes
Corrective Action
1. Pump control switch closed, motor
does not start-Continued
e. Defective stepdown tran-
sformer - Continued
Check red and black power leads for
continuity. Tighten or replace. Low
or zero voltage across transformer
secondary terminals X1 and X2
should be 110-120V AC. Check
terminals at transformer secondary
for tightness. Tighten or replace as
necessary. Continuity check across
primary and secondary coils indicate
open coil. Replace transformer.
f. Motor single phasing.
f. Motor will emit a high hysteresis
hum and will not rotate. Check 3
phase
power
supply
conductors,
motor, disconnect switch, magnetic
starter for shorts, grounds or loose
terminals. Inspect magnetic starter
heater
elements
for
correct
in-
stallation and tightness. Check for
dirty
magnetic
starter
contacts.
Repair or replace damaged parts or
conductors.
g. Wire loose, broken or shorted.
g. Zero
voltage
at
transformer
primary.
Check
continuity
of
primary
conductors.
Replace
or
repair as necessary. Zero voltage
between 115V control circuits 1 and 2
at control terminal board. Check
continuity
of
control
conductor.
Replace or repair as necessary, Zero
voltage between 115V control circuit
11 and 2 at magnetic starter. Check
continuity of the control circuits 11
and 2 conductors. Replace or repair
as necessary.
h. Defective motor start switch.
h. Continuity
check
across
switch
shows open when the switch is
closed. Replace switch.
i. Magnetic starter coil defective.
i. Continuity check across coil in-
dicates open. Replace the coil.
j. Motor mechanically bound.
j. Motor shaft does not rotate by hand.
Repair or replace motor as necessary.
2. Low fire switch closed, burner does
not ignite.
a. Air pressure switch contacts open.
a. Zero voltage between 115V control
circuits 3 and 2 at control circuit
board. Zero voltage between NO
contact of switch and control circuit
at terminal board. See malfunction 3.
b. Low water pressure switch contacts
open.
b. Same as step a. Zero voltage
between M1 contact of switch and
control circuit 2 at terminal board.
Depress switch by-pass push button,
if burner lights contacts are open.
See malfunction 4.
c Excess temperature switch contacts
open.
c. Same as step a. Zero voltage
between NO contact of switch and
control circuit 2 at terminal board.
See malfunction 5.
d. Low oil pressure switch contacts
open.
d. Same as step a. Zero voltage
between M1 contact of switch and
control circuit 2 at terminal board.
See malfunction 6.
