7 Start-up Set domestic hot water (DHW) operation Verify DHW mode There are two (2) modes of operation for DHW. In Normal Mode, when a DHW demand begins, the control will start the DHW pump, turn off the boiler pump (if running), and modulate to bring the outlet temperature to the DHW boiler set point. The maximum firing rate may be limited in this[...]

39 8 Operating information General How the boiler operates The outdoor boiler uses an advanced stainless steel heat exchanger and electronic control module that allows fully condensing operation. The blower pulls in air and pushes flue products out of the boiler through the heat exchanger and flue piping. The control module regulates blower speed t[...]

40 8 Operating information Temperature control Modulation The outdoor boiler is capable of modulating its firing rate from a minimum of 20% to a maximum of 100%. The firing rate is dictated by the call for heat (i.e., space heating or domestic hot water), the heating load, ramp delay (if enabled), and various other temperature limitations. Ramp del[...]

When the outlet temperature exceeds 200°F, the automatic high limit action occurs. The boiler shuts down until the outlet water temperature cools below 190°F, and a 60 second timer has expired. If the outlet temperature continues to increase, the manual reset high limit action will occur at 210°F. High limit test procedure Monitor external limit[...]

42 8 Operating information Cascade When multiple boilers are installed, they can be wired together in a cascade sequence. A maximum of eight boilers can be controlled from a single control. In this application one boiler would be designated as the Leader control and all others would be designated as Member controls. The Leader control can be progra[...]

43 OPERATION DISPLAY 1. Upon a call for heat, the gas pressure switch(es) must be closed. 2. Once the gas pressure switch(es) are closed, the control turns on the appropriate pumps (system and boiler pumps for space heating, DHW pump for DHW). The flow switch and/or LWCO must close. 3. The air pressure switch and blocked drain switch must close. 4.[...]

44 8 Operating information Sequence of operation (continued) OPERATION DISPLAY 8. If the space heating call for heat is active, and the tank thermostat or sensor starts a DHW call for heat, the boiler will switch to the DHW mode. If programmed for normal DHW operation (not as a zone), the DHW pump will turn on first, then the boiler pump will turn [...]
