WHEN AN EXISTING CATEGORY I HEATER IS REMOVED OR
REPLACED, THE ORGINAL VENTING SYSTEM MAY NO LONGER
BE SIZED TO PROPERLY VENT THE ATTACHED APPLIANCES.
The effects of an improperly sized venting system can
include but not limited to: the formation of
condensate, leakage, spillage etc. The following test
procedure is required:
ds WARNING
CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING HAZARD
Failure to follow the steps outlined below for each appliance connected
to the venting system being placed into operation could result in carbon
monoxide poisoning or death.
The following steps shall be followed for each appliance connected to
the venting system being placed into operation, while all other
appliances connected to the venting system are not in operation:
1) Seal any unused openings in the venting system.
2) Inspect the venting system for proper size and horizontal pitch, as
required in the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54 or the
Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code, CSA 13149.1 and these
instructions. Determine that there is no blockage or restriction,
leakage, corrosion and other deficiencies which could cause an
unsafe condition.
3) As far as practical, close all building doors and windows and all
doors between the space in which the appliance(s) connected to
the venting system are located and other spaces of the building.
4) Close fireplace dampers.
5) Turn on clothes dryers and any appliance not connected to the
venting system. Turn on any exhaust fans, such as range hoods and
bathroom exhausts, so they are operating at maximum speed. Do
not operate a summer exhaust fan.
6) Follow the lighting instructions. Place the appliance being inspected
into operation. Adjust the thermostat so appliance is operating
continuously.
7) Test for spillage from draft hood equipped appliances at the draft
hood relief opening after 5 minutes of main burner operation. Use
the flame of a match or candle.
8) If improper venting is observed during any of the above tests, the
venting system must be corrected in accordance with the National
Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54 and/or Natural Gas and
Propane Installation Code, CSA B149.1.
9) After it has been determined that each appliance connected to the
venting system properly vents when tested as outlined above,
return doors, windows, exhaust fans, fireplace dampers and any
other gas -fired burning appliance to their previous conditions of use.

11.0 VENTING REQUIREMENTS
(UNVENTED APPLICATIONS: (All Models)
This appliance shall only be used in a well vented space and shall not be used in a building, garage or any other
enclosed or semi enclosed space unless the space conforms to the specifications under the sections titled: "FOR
UNVENTED INSTALLATIONS IN SEMI ENCLOSED APPLICATIONS" or "FOR VENTED INSTALLATIONS"
If no other means of ventilation is provided (either mechanical or natural ventilation) in the area to be heated,
an appliance may be installed with shelter no more inclusive than:
a) With walls on all sides, but no overhead cover.
b) Within a partial enclosure which includes an overhead cover and no more than two side walls. These side
walls may be parallel, as in a breezeway, or at right angles to each other.
c) Within a partial enclosure which includes an overhead cover and three side walls, as long as 30 percent or
more of the horizontal periphery of the enclosure is permanently open.
FOR UNVENTED INSTALLATIONS IN SEMI ENCLOSED APPLICATIONS: (All models
If the heater is to be used or installed in a semi enclosed application, which Is more confining than as described
under the section titled "UNVENTED APPLICATIONS" but is not totally enclosed; adequate ventilation must be
provided to dilute the products of combustion. This rate is a minimum of four (4) CFM (cubic feet per minute)
or .12 cubic meters per 1000 BTU/Hr of installed heater input. Ventilation is to be provided via mechanical or
natural gravity (convection). Provision must be provided for adequate fresh, outdoor air to enter the space
through either, building crack -age and/or fresh air ventilation inlets and/or mechanical exhaust and/or supply
fans. Contact local authorities for verification of local code compliance prior to operation.
If adequate ventilation cannot be provided, a condition can occur whereby the exhaust gases can displace the
available air at ceiling level to such an extent that the heater may not operate properly and cause one or all of
the following symptoms: black residue at the exhaust outlet (soot) and /or backfiring and/or complete heater
shutdown. In order to eliminate this possible condition, do not install this heater in recessed ceiling applications
that are not ventilated (if clarification of this type of installation is required, call the factory for further
information prior to installation or purchase), or In situations where the products of combustions cannot
escape or be ventilated at a rate sufficient to support combustion. Ventilation in tray ceiling or peak ceiling
applications can be via mechanical ventilation, or natural convection though ventilation and exhaust inlets or
grilles at a minimum rate of four (4) CFM (cubic feet per minute) or .12 cubic meters per 1000 BTU/Hr of
installed heater input.
If you do not understand or are unfamiliar with the terminology or instruction as they are written, do not
install this product until you contact the local authorities for clarification or approval.

FOR VENTED INSTALLTIONS: (For PH -40, 50, 75, 80, 100 and 125 models only)
WARNING: DO NOT ATTEMPT TO CONNECT ANY HO (HIGH OUTPUT) MODEL TO ANY VENTING.
If adequate ventilation cannot be provided by the methods previously described under the heading "FOR
UNVENTED INSTALLATIONS IN SEMI ENCLOSED APPLICATIONS", an approved chimney or sidewall venting
system must be used. Only models PH-40, 50, 75, 80, 100 and 125 can be connected to an approved venting
system.
If you have an HO model and cannot provide adequate ventilation to safely operate the unit as per the previous
heading ("FOR UNVENTED INSTALLATIONS IN SEMI ENCLOSED APPLICATIONS"), return unit to your supplier and
purchase the appropriate model for this type of application.
If you do not understand or are unfamiliar with how to vent a gas fired appliance, do not install this product
until you contact the local authorities for clarification or approval.
To connect to an approved chimney (by others) or side wall vent system (Part #800208) remove the exhaust
hood from the end cap by drilling out four (4) retaining rivets and discarding the hood. The exposed tubing is 3"
I.D. and can be connect to an approved venting system by following the instructions on appropriates pages (22-
29) for your particular installation.

APPROVED CATEGORY III Venting Method
In North America (Canada and the USA) the SPECIAL VENTING method, as detail below, is approved as a Category
III venting system for Calcana installations where venting is required.
The venting system is to be provided by the installer. The use of readily available, single wall venting materials
with a thickness no less than 26 gauge is to be used. If 26 gauge "C-vent" or galvanized "stove pipe" is selected,
each joint will need to be sealed with high temperature silicone as prescribed below, as well as the connection
will require a minimum of three (3) #8 sheet metal or self tapping screws to be used in a pattern such that each
screw is installed at a distance that is equal between the number of fasteners selected. If material other than
the aforementioned is employed, connect sections of material in such a fashion that each connection is secure
and sealed. A minimum 36" (91 cm) length of 3" (7.62 cm) (PH-40, PH-50,PH-75) or 4" (10 cm) (for PH-40, PH-
50, PH-75, PH-80, PH-100, PH-125) single wall material, with a thickness no less than 26 gauge is to be installed
at the exhaust end of heater. This length can include elbows. If a portion of venting is to pass through a wall,
installer can continue the single wall vent as long as a combustible wall thimble is used to provide adequate
clearance to combustibles, or "B-vent (and related accessories) can be used. If a portion of venting is to pass
through a roof, installer to use "B-vent" (and related accessories) for these sections. Use approved chimney cap
for vertical installations and approved high wind terminal, as described below in subsection B and C for
HORIZONTAL VENTING. Installer is to adequately support vent system to prevent sagging in a manner that is in
accordance with codes for the area.
Installer is to make sure all flue joints are sealed. Use only suitable products equal to General Electric RTV106 or
Permatex 81160 High -Temp Red RTV, Red High Temperature Silicone Adhesive Sealant (not supplied). Apply a
minimum of % " x %" (6.35mm x 6.35 mm) bead of silicone to each joint, and to each seam. The bead should be
applied to venting material with a smaller diameter as compared to the larger opening of the mating material or
in some instances, clamp, in such a fashion that when the joint is secured, the silicone is squeezed between the
two materials to form a sealed connection. Apply additional silicone if needed to accomplish a sealed joint or
seam.
Follow the silicone manufacturer's instructions for curing, and after the material has cured, the installer is to
perform a leak test on the venting system. A soap and water solution test, on the venting installed inside the
occupied space, can be used. If seamed, 26 gauge "C-vent" material is used, seal seam(s) with RTV high
temperature silicone. Once the installer is satisfied that the venting system is sealed, the heater can be placed
in permanent operation.

16.0 INITIAL START-UP
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO IGNITE HEATER BY HANDII
IMPORTANT NOTICE: This heater is not to be used as a construction heater to supply heat to an
unfinished building during the finishing phases of Construction. This practice exposes the unit to an
abnormally corrosive atmosphere from sources such as paint, varnish and adhesives, which can lead
to premature radiant tube exchanger or vent failure. The practice also allows foreign materials such as
sawdust or sheet rock dust to enter the combustion blower, burner, heat exchanger and vent system,
resulting in shorter life of the unit.
Use of the heater as a construction heater will void the warranty.
Procedure -
a) Make sure gas is turned on.
b) Check for any possible blockages in combustion air intake and exhaust areas of unit.
c) Make sure all options are attached securely.
d) Make sure electricity is on to unit.
e) Turn control on/off switch to on.
f) Check the flame port to see flame has established,
g) If flame is not established, turn on/off switch to off for 5 seconds then turn back up or interrupt
electrical supply to unit for 5 seconds, and allow unit to try again.
h) Verify that the manifold pressure (outlet pressure tap) on the gas valve is the same pressure as
stated on the rating plate of the unit. Use a manometer that measures inches of water column for
this procedure. If adjustment is required, remove the cap -screw from the pressure regulator housing.
Adjust the pressure regulator adjusting screw according to instruction on page 25. Replace cap -
screw. After measurement has been taken, replace pipe plug in outlet pressure tap. Check for leaks.
(see pages 3, 4 & 37)
i) Verify gas input rate. (see page 37)
NOTE: Oil smoke might appear off of exchanger tube after it heats up for initial firing. Do not be alarmed. The
smoke is just a small amount of oil on the surface of the tube from manufacturing. If smoke is excessive, open
door and 'air out' the building until smoke is removed.
NOTE: Heater will have a higher heat output by the burner head as compared to the exhaust end. This is
normal.
NOTE: A small amount of condensation may occur from the heater when it starts the heating cycle. The
condensation will stop once the heater warms up.

OWARNING '•
INSTALLER MUST VERIFY AND ADJUST, IF NECESSARY, THE MANIFOLD OPERATING PRESSURE OF THIS HEATER
ACCORDING TO THE INSTALLATION MANUAL AND RATING PLATE OF THIS HEATER.
FAILURE TO DO SO WILL VOID ALL WARRANTIES AND MAY CAUSE DAMAGE, INJURY AND/OR DEATH.
IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS CONCERNING THESE INSTRUCTIONS, CALL CALCANA AT 800-778-6729 BEFORE YOU VERIFY
AND/OR ADJUST THE MANIFOLD FUEL PRESSURE ON THE HEATER. No one should work on or install this heater unless
they are a licensed/qualified and insured contractor trained in the appropriate trade or technical fields
(Gasfitting-HVAC-Electrician) related to the installation and/or service of this heater.
Person(s) who service and/or install this unit accept full liability and responsibility for its operation.
TOOLS REQUIRED
-Small Flat Blade Screw Driver
-2 mm (millimeter) allen wrench
-3 mm (millimeter) allen wrench
-Manometer that measures inches of water column (" W.C.)
-Volt Meter capable of reading AC and DC voltage in a range of 0 to at least 30 volts
INITIAL STEPS:
1) The installer must verify that the heater being installed is of the correct fuel type for the
available fuel that is supplied for this installation. This includes any high altitude correction that
may be applicable for your installation. Confirm site has adequate fuel supply to operate all gas fired
appliances, including this/these heater(s), at their maximum rated capacity simultaneously (at the same
time). Make sure gas lines and pressure regulators are of a capacity to deliver the correct line pressure
within the specified range for your fuel type (5" to 14" w.c. for natural gas and 12" to 14" w.c. for
propane or Propane fuel) to the heater's gas line inlet connection, with all gas fired appliances on site
operating at the same time. If you are unable to achieve the stated line pressures during operation, you
will not be able to verify and/or adjust the gas manifold pressure setting on this heater, and the heater
will not operate correctly. If fuel pressure is too low, the heater will not have enough fuel to achieve its
maximum heat level. Alternatively, if the fuel line pressure is too high, the valve can be damaged.
2) Make sure all gas -fired appliances on site, other than this heater, are on and operating at the same time.
Otherwise, an inaccurate reading of manifold pressure may occur.
3) Make sure this heater is not operating and is turned off when you start this procedure.

CAUTION: Always adjust low pressure setting first since the low setting will affect the high setting.
7) Remove the electrical connection from the modulator. (Brown and White Wires)
8) Start the heater and take a pressure reading. The manifold pressure required on the low setting for
natural gas is 1.25 "W.C. For liquefied petroleum gas, the manifold pressure should be 5.25" W.C. on low.
The manifold pressure setting information is also contained on the rating plate which is affixed to the side
of the heater near where the service lid is located.
9) If adjustment is needed, insert a 3mm alien wrench into the adjustment tower and turn clockwise to
lower pressure and counterclockvlise to increase pressure.

17.0 GAS INPUT RATE
Natural gas heating values can vary widely. It is the responsibility of the Installer to make sure that the input
rate to the heater as installed does not exceed the nameplate rating of the heater. Failure to do so can cause
radiant tube failure, resulting in injury or death.
The maximum BTUH input capacity for each model is shown on the heater's rating plate and in the specification
table. This input must not be exceeded.
The input shown may be used in geographic area where the elevation is from 0 to 4,500 feet (1372m) above
sea level (Canada only) in accordance with CGA 2.17-M91 (R2003), no change required to main orifice. For
installations above 4,500 (1372 m) refer to Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code, CSA B149.1 or latest
edition, or contact the factory. In the USA: For installations above 2000 feet (610 m), the appliance shall be Be-
rated 4 percent (%) for each 1000 feet (305 m) of elevation above sea level. The Btu/hr input depends on the
calorific heating value of the gas, orifice size, and manifold pressure. Orifice sizes are based upon values of
1000 Btu/hr/cu. ft (.028316 cubic meter) and 2500 Btu/hr/cu. ft. (.028316 cubic meter) for L.P.G. (propane).
How to Determine Gas Input Rate:
Where gas is metered, the input rate may be determined by the following method, Contact the gas supplier,
Public Utility Company or Propane gas distributor to obtain the calorific gas value of the gas being used. When
checking the gas input rate, any other gas burning appliances connected to the same meter must be completely
off. The heater should be allowed to operate for 5 minutes before attempting to check the gas input rate.
To check flow rate, observe the one cubic foot dial on the gas meter and determine the number of seconds
required for the dial hand to complete one revolution (seconds to flow one cubic foot).
To determine the number of seconds per cubic foot that is necessary to achieve the correct input rate, use the
following formula:
GAS VALUE X 36001 DESIRED INPUT = SECONDS NEEDED
Example: 1000 BTU gas, heater input 100,000 BTUH
Seconds for one cubic foot = 1000 X 3600 /100,000 = 36 seconds
If when clocking the meter, the one cubic foot dial makes a complete revolution in less time than was calculated
that it should be de -rated. It if takes more time for the meter to make one revolution than was calculated, the
unit is under -fired.
The orifice size must be changed to correct an over -fired or under -fired condition. If it is determined that
different orifices are needed, please contact your distributor for assistance in selecting the correct
replacement.

18.0 SEQUENCE OPERATION
18.1 DESCRIPTION OF 3-TRY DIRECT SPARK IGNITION SYSTEM:
The TRITON 2461D is a 24 VAC Microprocessor Based Direct Spark Ignition Control designed for use in all types
of heating applications such as gas furnaces, boilers, water heaters and other similar appliances: The control
utilizes a microprocessor to continually and safely monitor, analyze and control the proper operation of the
gas burner. Value added features such as: combustion blower control, LED diagnostics, automatic one hour
reset, and flame current test pins highlight the controls benefits.
18.2 OPERATION:
A. POWER UP/STANDBY
• Upon applying power (24 volts) to 24 VAC/R, the control will reset, perform a self -check routine,
initiate fulltime flame sensing, flash the diagnostic LED for up to four seconds, and enter the
thermostat scan state.
B. HEAT MODE
• When a call for heat is received from the thermostat supplying 24 volts to TH/W, the control will
check the pressure switch for normally open contacts. The combustion blower is then energized and
once the pressure switch contacts close, a pre -purge delay begins. Following the pre -purge period
the gas valve is energized and sparks commence for the trial for ignition period.
• When flame is detected during the trial for ignition, sparks are shut off immediately and the gas
valve and combustion blower remains energized. The thermostat, pressure switch, and main burner
flame are constantly monitored to assure the system continues to operate properly. When the
thermostat is satisfied and the demand for heat ends, the main valve is de -energized immediately,
the control senses the loss of flame signal and de -energizes the combustion blower.
C. FLAME FAILURE - RE -IGNITION
• If the established flame signal is lost while the burner is operating, the control will respond within
0.8 seconds. The HV spark will be energized for a trial for ignition period in an attempt to re -light
the burner. If the burner does not light, the control will make two more attempts to re -light the
burner. If the burner does not re -light, the control will go into lockout and flash the LED 3-times. If
flame is re-established, normal operation resumes.

the combustion blower off.
• If the airflow signal is lost while the burner is firing, the control will immediately de -energize the gas
valve and the combustion blower will remain on. If the call for heat remains, the control will wait for
proper airflow to return. If proper airflow air is not detected after 30-seconds an airflow fault signal
will be declared.
Proceed as follows to verify reason for airflow lockout:
1. Check air intake and exhaust for blockage. Remove any blockage.
2. Check combustion air blower for dirt. Clean and/or replace as necessary.
3. If there is no blockage, disconnect fresh air intake at burner head (if equipped). Retry for ignition. If
unit does ignite, check to verify that duct size to unit is of proper size and length and that there is
no blockage. Replace ducting as necessary to reduce amount of air restriction to unit.

I. FLAME WITH NO CALL FOR HEAT (FLAME FAULT)
• If at any time the main valve fails to close completely and maintains a flame, the full time flame
sense circuit will detect it and energize the combustion blower. Should the main valve later close off
completely removing the flame signal, the combustion blower will power off.
J. IGNITION LOCK OUT (FAILURE TO LIGHT)
• FENWAL DSI Module will attempt three ignition trials before going into lockout. The valve relay will
be de -energized immediately, and the combustion blower will be turned off.
• Recovery from lockout requires a manual reset by either resetting the thermostat or removing 24
volts, or removing the electrical power supply for a period of 5-seconds.
• If the thermostat is still calling for heat after one hour, the control will automatically reset and
attempt to ignite the burner again.
If unit still does not operate, proceed as follows:
• Check flame sensor current. (see below)
• Check electrode for cracks and proper location, (see page 47)
K. FLAME SENSOR CURRENT CHECK
SERVICE CHECKS
nIu'_T'P«1-IF015E MFTEfl Flame current is the current which
passes through the flame from the
0 sensor to the ground. The minimum
flame current necessary to keep the
o00 system from lockout is .7 micro amps.
To measure flame current, connect
VSF MiCRI)AMP $CAL,E an analog DC micro ammeter to the
FC- FC+ terminals per figure. Meter

L. PROPER ELECTRODE LOCATION
Proper location of the electrode assembly is important for optimum system performance. The electrode
assembly should be located so that the tips are inside the flame envelope about W (1.9 cm) to 1" (2.54
cm).
CAUTIONS:
1) Ceramic insulators should not be in or close to the flame
2) Electrode assemblies should not be adjusted or disassembled, Electrodes should have a gap spacing
of .125" (3.175 mm). If this spacing is not correct, the assembly must be replaced.
Electrodes are NOT field adjustable.
3) Exceeding the temperature limits can cause nuisance lockouts and premature electrode failure.
