6.2. Test Airflow Switch and Purge Timer (LFC only; safety)
The LCD airflow switch recirculation fan, airflow switch exhaust fan, and purge timer should be
tested every 40 hours. To test the airflow switch and purge timer:
1. Allow the oven to stabilize at its minimum operating temperature by turning the heater off.
Place all dampers in the closed position.
2. Cycle power to the system.
3. The airflow switch should be closed, but the heater relay should remain de-energized until the
purge timer times out. This can be verified by monitoring the purge timer.
Indicators 1LED and 2LED should be lit. 3LED should remain off until the purge timer times out.
