G24M Service Literature Corp. 9723-L12 Revised 07-2001 G24M SERIES UNITS G24M series units are mid-efficiency gas furnaces manufactured with tubular steel heat exchangers formed of aluminized steel. G24M units are available in heating capacities of 45,000 to 140,000 Btuh and cooling applications up to 5 tons. Refer to Engineering Handbook for proper sizing. Units are factory equipped for use with natural gas. A kit is available for conversion to LPG operation. Early model G24M units use electronic (direct spark) ignition. Late model G24M model units feature the Lennox SureLightT silicon-nitride ignition system. The G24MX unit meets the California Nitrogen Oxides (NOx) Standards and California Seasonal Efficiency requirements. All units use a redundant gas valve to assure safety shut-off as required by A.G.A. or C.G.A. Units may be installed in upflow, downflow or horizontal position. The heat exchanger is designed for upright or horizontal use only. When the unit is installed in the downflow position, the heat exchanger is field removed and reinstalled so it is upright when the cabinet is inverted. No field conversion is required when the unit is installed in the horizontal position. The heat exchanger, burners and manifold assembly can easily be removed for inspection and service by simply disconnecting gas, unplugging wiring harness and spark wires and removing four screws holding the heat exchanger in place. Then the heat exchanger slides out of the cabinet. All specifications in this manual are subject to change. Procedures outlined in this manual are presented as a recommendation only and do not supersede or replace local or state codes. In the absence of local or state codes, the guidelines and procedures outlined in this manual (except where noted) are recommended only and do not constitute code.

The blower controls, gas valve and burners can be accessed by reĆ moving the front access panel. A separate blower access door is located behind the front access panel. Electrical control components are mounted to the blower access door. G24M units are factory equipped with bottom return air panels in place. The panels are designed to be field removed as reĆ quired for bottom air return. Indentations on side of units, show where side return opening should be cut during installaĆ tion. A-Blower Door Components (Figure 4) Electrical burner control and blower control components are located on the outside surface of the blower access door. Jackplugs allow the blower door to be easily reĆ moved for blower service. Located on the blower door are the unit transformer (T1), the furnace control (A3) and door interlock switch (S51). Furnace control (A3) combines the function of a burner ignition control and blower control. 1- Control Transformer (T1) A transformer located on the blower door provides power to the low voltage section of the unit. Transformers on all models are rated 30VA with a 120V primary and a 24V secĆ ondary. 2-Door Interlock Switch (S51) A door interlock switch rated 16A at 125VAC is located on the blower access door. The switch is wired in series with line voltage. When the blower door is removed the unit will shut down. SURELIGHT IGNITOR UPPER BURNER MOUNTING RAIL Shock hazard. Disconnect power before servicing. Control is not field repairable. If control is inoperable, simply replace entire control. Can cause injury or death. Unsafe operation will result if repair is attempted. 3- SureLight Ignition System (A3) Late Model G24M Units Late model G24M units are equipped with the Lennox SureLight ignition system. The system consists of ignitor (figure 5) and ignition control board (figure 6 with control terminal designations in table 1). The board and ignitor work in combination to ensure furnace ignition and ignitor durability. The SureLight integrated board controls all major furnace operations. The board also features two LED lights for troubleshooting and two accessory termiĆ nals rated at (4) four amps. See table 2 for troubleshootĆ ing diagnostic codes. Table 3 and 4 show jack plug termiĆ nal designations. Units equipped with the SureLight board can be used with either electronic or electro-meĆ chanical thermostats without modification. The SurĆ eLight ignitor is made of durable silicon-nitride. Ignitor longevity is also enhanced by voltage ramping by the control board. The board finds the lowest ignitor temperaĆ ture which will successfully light the burner, thus increasĆ ing the life of the ignitor. a-flame sensor The flame sensor uses flame rectification to sense comĆ bustion. During operation, flame is sensed by current passed through the flame and sensing electrode. Figure 7 shows the gap between tip of the electrode and the burner surface.

Make sure that the furnace is wired correctly and is properly grounded. After the 15-second pre-purge period, the SureLight ignitor warms up for 20 seconds after which the gas valve opens for a 4-second trial for ignition. The ignitor stays energized for the first second of the 4-second trial. G24M units with 63K89, 24L85 or 56L83: the ignitor stays energized the first second of the 4 second trial. G24M units with board 97L48: ignitor stays energized during the 4-second trial until flame is sensed. If ignition is not proved during the 4-second period, the control will try four more times with an inter purge and warm-up time between trials of 35 seconds. After a total of five trials for ignition (including the initial trial), the control goes into Watchguard-Flame Failure mode. After a 60-minute reset period, the control will begin the ignition sequence again. The SureLight control board has an added feature that prolongs the life of the ignitor. After a successful ignition, the SureLight control utilizes less power to energize the ignitor on successive calls for heat. The control continues to ramp down the voltage to the ignitor until it finds the lowest amount of power that will provide a successful ignition. This amount of power is used for 255 cycles. On the 256th call for heat, the control will again ramp down until the lowest power is determined and the cycle begins again.

Fan off time (time that the blower operates after the heat demand has been satisfied) can be adjusted by flipping the dip switches located on the SureLight integrated control. The unit is shipped with a factory fan off setting of 90 seconds. Fan off time will affect comfort and is adjustable to satisfy individual applications. See figure 8. CAUTION Electrostatic discharge can affect electronic components. Take precautions during furnace installation and service to protect the furnace’s electronic controls. Precautions will help to avoid control exposure to electrostatic discharge by putting the furnace, the control and the technician at the same electrostatic potential. Neutralize electrostatic charge by touching hand and all tools on an unpainted unit surface, such as the gas valve or blower deck, before performing any service procedure. NOTE—If fan “off” time is set too low, residual heat in heat exchanger may cause primary limit S10 to trip resulting in frequent cycling of blower. If this occurs, adjust blower to longer time setting. b-Electronic Ignition On a call for heat the SureLight control monitors the combustion air inducer prove switch. The control will not begin the heating cycle if the prove switch is closed (by-passed). Once the prove switch is determined to be open, the combustion air inducer is energized. When the differential in the prove switch is great enough, the prove switch closes and a 15-second pre-purge begins. If the prove switch is Page 10 FAN-OFF TIME ADJUSTMENT 60sec. 90sec. 120sec. 180sec. To adjust fan-off timing, flip dip switch to desired setting.

See figure 9. tions with blower control functions. When there is a call for heat, the control delays ignition Early model G24M units utilize a furnace control manufactured by RAM Electronics Corporation. The RAM board is a printed circuit board which controls the blower, gas valve, combustion air blower and ignition spark. It also monitors the flame, limit and gas valve operation. The control has a non--adjustable, factory preset on fan timing (45 seconds). Fan off timings are adjustable. The board utilizes both 120 and 24VAC. See figure 9. The board is also equipped with a diagnostic LED for use when troubleshooting the unit. When the furnace is idle (blower off and no heating or cooling demand), the diagnostic LED flashes at a slow steady rate. On a call for heat, the diagnostic LED begins flashing at a fast rate and the combustion air blower is energized. The LED flashes different codes to indicate problem conditions. The diagnostic LED lights red (not flashing) to indicate control board failure. Table until combustion air blower operation has been proved and pre-purge period has elapsed. It then opens the gas valve and generates a spark to ignite the burners. Trial for ignition lasts for 7 seconds. At the same time, the control begins monitoring the flame sensor. If the flame current is too weak (less than 1 microamp) or if the burners do not ignite (within the 7 second ignition trial), the control will shut off the spark ignitor and the combustion air blower and de-energize the gas valve. Flame current should be between 1 and 5 microamps to keep the gas valve open. See figure 21. The control will attempt to ignite the burners up to two more times. Each time the control restarts the ignition sequence, it begins with a 45 second pre-purge. If flame is not sensed after the third trial, the control locks out. Lockout means that the control shuts off the gas valve, spark and combustion air blower for 60 minutes. At the end of 60 minutes the control completely resets and 7 shows how to interpret the other LED modes. will attempt ignition up to three times.

Refer to table 12 for pressure switch replacement for models at elevations of 4500 feet (1372m) and greater. A microamp DC meter is needed to check the flame signal on the primary ignition control. Flame (microamp) signal is an electrical current which passes from the furnace control through the sensor elecĆ trode during unit operation. Current passes from the senĆ sor through the flame to ground to complete a safety cirĆ cuit. To Measure Flame Signal: 1 - Place meter in series between furnace control and sensor wire. Connect the positive (+) lead of meter to the ignition control sensor connection and the negaĆ tive (-) lead of the meter to the sensor wire. See figure 21. 2 - Set thermostat for a heating demand and check flame signal with unit operating. For G24M series with a RAM control, a reading of 1 to 5 microamps DC should occur. The furnace control must see at least 1.0 microamps in order to keep the gas valve energized. G24M units with the SureLight control should read 0.7 microamps or more.
