SPACE HEATING

Overview
The Heating boiler is designed to be installed in a primary/secondary type piping system . The boiler comes complete with a factory installed pump, which is designed to circulate heating system water through the boiler’s heat exchanger
and primary loop piping only . The building’s distribution piping system may require a dedicated pump or pumps to provide circulation of the space heating water through the heating system . The boiler can operate a separate building
pump (120V 1 .0 AMP max) .
Zoning of the space heating system can be accomplished many ways . Several control packages are available from your local wholesaler and offer an easy method of connecting the zoning system to the boiler .
The Heating boiler supplies heat to the space using an outdoor reset function . With an outdoor sensor installed: the boiler will automatically adjust its space heating water temperature based on the parameters programmed into the boiler . See separate controller manual for parameter information. If the outdoor sensor is not installed, the boiler will use the temperature set in the User Setup menu “Boiler Supply Temperature” to supply hot water to the space heating system .

SEQUENCE OF OPERATION

The Heating boiler operates in a similar way for both a space heating and a domestic hot water call for heat . When the unit is powered up the controller enters a self diagnostic mode and displays the controller software version in the main display . .
The sequence of operation is as follows:

The unit receives a call for heat from a dry contact closure on terminals X13 .1 and X13 .2 (24 volts section) . The unit can also receive a call forfor domestic hot water heating from a 10KΩ sensor or aquastat wired to terminals X13 .4 and X13 .5 (24 volts section) .
The unit performs a safety check and energizes the fan for a pre-purge (Service Display = 3) .
Once the 5-second pre-purge is compete, the unit enters a 5-second trial for ignition (Service Display = ) . If the unit fails to ignite, the unit will complete another 5-second pre-purge then 5-second trial for ignition . This is repeated
4 times before a hard lock-out occurs . The Return button must be pressed to reset the controller and begin another trial for ignition .
Once the burner is lit and flame has been proven the unit operates as it is programmed (Display = for space heating or for domestic hot water) .
If the unit exceeds its target temperature and there is still a call for heat or hot water the burner will turn off integral pump runs. (Service Display = 1)
After a call for heat is satisfied, the unit’s pump will operate for an adjustable amount of time (Service Display = 0) .
If the burner is on for frost protection (Service Display = 9) .

NOTE
The unit is equipped with a frost protection feature.
This feature operates the unit’s built-in pump and the burner to help protect the unit from freezing. If the unit is in a hard lock-out condition the burner will not operate, but the unit’s built-in pump will operate. We are not responsible for damages to the unit, and/or related components, nor property damages that may result from freezing conditions.

MAINTENANCE

General Care

Keep combustible materials and flammable liquids and vapors away from the boiler.
Keep vent terminals clear of obstructions (snow, dirt, etc .) Regular
Regular Maintenance
Check the domestic hot water temperature at the faucet to ensure the temperature is not too hot . If the temperature is too hot, you can adjust the water temperature with the boiler’s controller . If these adjustments are not correcting the issue, call your qualified service technician for service.
Check the pressure relief valve and discharge piping for signs of leakage or moisture. If water or moisture is found, contact your qualified service technician as soon as possible for service .
Check the condensate trap and outlet pipe . The condensate trap must be full of water . The outlet hose may be connected to a condensate neutralizer, if so, check the pH of the water coming out of the neutralizer is above 6 .0pH . If the pH is below 6 .0 then the neutralizer will need to be re-charged or replaced . Contact your qualified service technician for service.

WARNING
Annual Maintenance must only be done by a qualified service technician.
Annual Maintenance
The boiler must be inspected by your qualified service technician for the following:

Inspect the flue gas exhaust and air intake connections. All connections should be tight and leak free .
Inspect flue gas exhaust piping, combustion air piping and terminations.
Inspect the boiler’s interior and vacuum if required .
Check for water, gas and condensate leaks in the boiler and around the boiler .
Check the condensate trap and clean if required. Re-fill the trap and re-install.
Check the water pressure .
Check water chemistry including water treatment level and/or propylene glycol level if used .
Check the electrical connections .
Check the ignition electrode and remove oxidation from the electrode . Replace if necessary .
Check the gas valve and ignition cable .
Check the controller settings .
Check the burners flame. Should be a quick and quiet ignition across the full burner .
If required, clean the heat exchanger and the burner .

CAUTION
Before testing the relief valve, make certain the discharge pipe is properly connected to the valve outlet and arranged to contain and safely dispose safely dispose of water to an open drain. of water to an open drain.
Relief Valve – Maintenance and Testing
The relief valve manufacturer requires that under normal operating conditions a “try lever test” must be performed quarterly . Under severe service conditions, or if corrosion and/or deposits are noticed within the valve body, you must test more often . Also perform a “try lever test” at the end of any non-service period . Test at or near maximum operating pressure by holding the test lever fully open for at least 5 seconds to flush the valve seat free of sediment and debris. Then release the lever and permit the valve to snap shut . If the lever does not activate, or there is no evidence of discharge, discontinue use of equipment immediately, and contact a licensed contractor or qualified service personnel .
If the relief valve does not completely seal, and fluid continues to leak from the discharge pipe, perform the test again to try and flush any debris that may be lodged in the valve . If repeated attempts fail to stop the leakage, contact a licensed contractor or qualified service personnel to replace the valve. While performing a “try lever test”, a quantity of heat transfer fluid will be discharged from the piping system, and the system pressure will drop. This fluid must be replaced . We highly recommend using a system pressurization unit such as an Axiom Industries model MF200 to refill and pressurize your system. Capture the discharged fluid in a container and recycle it by returning it to the system feeder unit . This is particularly important when your system contains treatment chemicals or glycol solutions . If the system employs plain water, turn on the unit’s auto fill valve to recharge the lost fluid.
