1. A WARNING FIRE HAZARD Do not exceed the specified voltage Replace existing control with exact model and dash number Protect the control from direct contact with water dripping spraying rain etc Label all wires before disconnection when servic ing controls Wiring errors can cause improper and dangerous operation Route and secure wiring away from flame SHOCK HAZARD Disconnect electric power before servicing Ensure proper earth grounding of appliance Ensure proper connection of line neutral and line hot wires EXPLOSION HAZARD Shut off main gas to appliance until installation is complete CAUTION Do not short out terminals on gas valve or primary control Short or incorrect wiring may damage the thermostat INSTALLATION MOUNTING AND WIRING All wiring should be installed according to local and national electrical codes and ordinances The control must be secured to an area that will experience a minimum of vibration and remain below the maximum ambient temperature rating of 175 F The control is approved for mini mum ambient temperatures of 40 F When mounting the control any orientation is acceptable Choose a location that will not damage obstruct or place stress on the control s terminations system wiring harness or system components After finding a suitable location drill four 4 s holes for mounting control To ensure proper mounting hole locations there is a mounting hole temp

WHITE RODGERS 50A55 438 Integrated Furnace Control INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS Operator Save these instructions for future use FAILURE TO READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY BEFORE INSTALLING OR OPERATING THIS CONTROL COULD CAUSE PERSONAL INJURY AND OR PROPERTY DAMAGE The 50A55 438 is an automatic gas interrupted ignition control that employs a microprocessor to continually monitor analyze and control the proper operation of the gas burner inducer and fan Signals interpreted during continual surveillance of the thermo stat and flame sensing element initiate automatic ignition of the burner sensing of the flame and system shut off during normal operation DESCRIPTION These controls incorporate system fault analysis for quick gas flow shut off coupled with automatic ignition retry upon sensing a fault correction Installation should be done by a qualified heating and air conditioning contractor or licensed electrician If in doubt about whether your wiring is millivolt line or low voltage have it inspected by a qualified heating and air condi tioning contractor or licensed electrician Do not exceed the specification ratings All wiring must conform to local and national electrical codes and ordinances This control is a precision instrument and should be handled carefully Rough handling or distorting components could cause the control to malfunction Following installation or replaceme
