SRP Parts
Your problem is:
The LED indicator light is not coming on
The cells never spark
Power box switch is ON
Door is tight in place
Blower is ON
|
-
Verify Power is Present.
Unplug the power box and operate a drop-light in the 3-prong receptacle
verifying an acceptable voltage and current.
-
Check for Shorted Cell
A shorted cell can prevent the indicator light from coming on.
Disconnect the cell, and power up with air flow.
If the unit now appears OK with indicator LED ON, then the cell have a problem.
-
Operate without the cell
-
Check cells for broken wires
-
Check cell for bent plates
-
Operate with the high voltage wire disconnected at the power suppy
-
Replace or Repair Power Box.
If the power box is plugged in to 120v and the LED indicator still does not light without the cells (blower must be running),
then the problem is in the power box.
-
Check the on/off switch
and wiring.
-
If the SRP has the optional Air Flow Sensor (AFS),
Then bypass the AFS, this will force on the power supply,
See AFS By-Pass section below.
-
An LED problem
is not likely if the cells never spark. The LED will not light if its blue and white wires are crossed.

When there is no air flow and the SST is turned on, it is normal operation for the green LED to come on for 10 seconds and then turn off. If this behavior exists with the blower running, then inspect the thermister orifice for a clog.
The AFS uses a thermister to sense air flow, see photo. The thermister heats up to 120 degrees and when cooled with air flow, the circuitry switches the power on. The vacuum in the duct draws air through the orifice and cools the thermister.
To bench test the power box, we use the setup shown below. Our fan draws a vacuum near the AFS orifice and we move the fan away until the green LED goes out. We compare this sensitivity to our test unit.
The most simple test is to just blow at the orifice with a straw. Use a mirror (shiny galvanized sheet metal) to watch the LED on the other side of the power box. The LED will turn on as soon as you blow, and go off with in a second after stopping. A hair dryer would also work. |
A thermister is a device that changes resistance with temperature change.
Beware of electrical shock. The contact
and rivets are live at 6200 volts.

To test the power box without air flow requires by-passing the
air flow sensor (AFS). The AFS is a switch that closes when air flow is present. The 120v power passes through the AFS switch and on to the power supply.
The AFS connects or disconnects the neutral side of the 120v. The 120v neutral wire passes through the AFS and then on to the power supply. The neutral wire enters the AFS on the white wire, and exits the AFS on the white/brown wire.
By-passing the AFS applies the 120v power directly to the power supply. This will cause the power supply to operate with or without air flow.
The AFS by-pass can be used to isolate a problem with the power supply or AFS. If the power supply operates with the AFS by-passed, then there is a problem with the AFS and not the power supply. The collector cells need not be connected.
Photo below shows by-passing the AFS. Disconnect the modular plug from the AFS and then connect the white wire to the white with brown stripe wire. We did this using the yellow wire shown below. We used a 14 gauge wire because if fit snug in the connector. This will force on the power supply and the green LED will light. |
