Field Controls 02715901 Control
The Field Controls 9" MG1 (part number 02715901, also listed as 2715901) is a precision-engineered double acting barometric draft control designed specifically for gas-fired appliances. This 9-inch draft regulator maintains consistent draft pressure by compensating for changes in stack temperature and atmospheric conditions. It provides critical ventilation stability for gas burners, featuring an adjustable range from .01" to .1" water column (w.c.). In the event of a momentary downdraft, the double-acting gate swings outward to relief internal pressure, protecting the pilot light and burner assembly while preventing the escape of combustion gases into the mechanical room. This control is essential for ensuring optimal combustion efficiency and preventing excessive fuel consumption caused by high draft conditions. Constructed with heavy-duty materials for long-term reliability, it integrates seamlessly into Category I venting systems where precise static pressure management is required for safe equipment operation.
Technical Specifications and Benefits
- Dual-Action Safety: The gate opens inward for draft regulation and outward to relieve pressure during downdrafts.
- Precise Pressure Range: Field-adjustable gate allows for static pressure tuning between .01" and .1" w.c.
- Universal Compatibility: Identified by part numbers 02715901 and 2715901 for easy cross-referencing.
- Stabilized Combustion: Reduces heat loss through the chimney by maintaining a constant draft on the appliance.
- Professional Construction: Designed for 9-inch flue pipes in commercial and high-output residential gas applications.
Common Installation Questions
How do you calibrate the MG1 draft control?
Calibration requires a manometer to measure the stack draft. Adjust the weights on the gate until the desired inches of water column (.01" to .1") are achieved according to the appliance manufacturer's specifications.
Can this be used on oil-fired equipment?
No, the 9" MG1 is a double-acting control specifically for gas applications. Oil-fired systems generally require a single-acting Type M or RC control to maintain strict firebox pressure.
Where should the control be located in the vent run?
The regulator should be installed as close to the appliance as possible, typically between the draft hood/diverter and the chimney, ensuring the gate remains level and plumb for accurate operation.
