Boiler pump capacity in single zone systems
When installing the boiler in a single zone application
without primary/secondary piping, it is critical not to
overload the pump. Use the Greenstar Heating or Combi
Boiler in this setup only in low pressure baseboard
applications. Radiant fl oor, panel radiator, or multi-zone
applications require primary/secondary piping. Do not
install zone valves with this system.
Recommended maximum: 70' (21 m) of 3/4" baseboard
at a 20°F delta T and a fl ow rate of 4.0 gpm. This allows
suffi cient reserves for the necessary supply and return
piping plus elbows.
Alternatively determine the system pressure drop on a case
by case basis to verify that the boiler pump is capable of
delivering the required fl ow rate. Table 2 provides as an
example the pressure drop of 100’ of 3/4” baseboard and
its relevant heat output.
Water Flow Pressure Drop per 100' MBH output per 100’ at shown Medium Water Temperature

Tab. 2 Pressure drop and heat output for ¾” baseboard
and 65°F Room Temperature
Add to that the pressure drop of supply and return piping
plus elbows and other devices like check valves.
Use the pump curves on the following page to verify that
the pump is capable of delivering the needed fl ow rate for
the given pressure drop of the system.
In order to save as much energy as possible and
keep water circulation noises to a minimum, select
the lowest possible pump speed.
If the working pressure cannot be met, use primary/
secondary piping.

DHW and boiler backup
Summary:
Single boiler supplying one baseboard heating zone
equipped with FW200 outdoor reset controller with builtin room sensor in the living space . This system is using
the boiler pump for zone water circulation and DHW tank
loading. A diverter valve is used to switch between space
heating and tank loading. This system is identical to System 3 with an added solar thermal DHW heating system.
This design can only be used with a single loop baseboard
system that has a low pressure drop. Radiant fl oors, panel
radiator, or multi zone systems require primary-secondary
piping. Do not install zone valves with this system.
Max. 70' (21 m) of 3/4" baseboard at a 20°F delta T and a
fl ow rate of 4.0 gpm plus the necessary supply and return
piping.
Ensure to select a solar tank with a boiler coil pressure
drop that does not exceed the capacity of the boiler pump
(see pages 11 & 12 for details).
Solar thermal provides renewable energy to heat DHW year
round, and if sized properly reduce energy consumption
signifi cantly. Bosch offers plug and play components
that are designed to work together with a boiler backup
system. Bosch solar thermal systems are qualifi ed for
government and utility incentives reducing the upfront
investment cost signifi cantly. Bosch solar thermal
collectors work even in the winter and under cloudy skies
preheating water, and reducing boiler run time and burner
starts.
Required components:
Greenstar combi-boiler.
FW200 controller in the room.
ISM2.
DHW solar tank with 2 coils.
Bosch solar thermal system complete.
Diverter valve 120VAC, 3-way, spring return.
Additional instructions:
See manufacturer’s installation and operating instructions.
The Bosch Greenstar boiler and ISM2 offer many different
solar thermal applications including space heating support and pool heating. Please consult the installation and
operating instructions for details.
In detail:
The FW200 is an outdoor temperature based controller
with room temperature infl uence. The controller adjusts
the heating curve (boiler supply temperature) according to
outdoor temperature. When the FW200 is wall mounted,
it also uses room temperature to adjust the heating curve
and modify boiler supply temperature.
FW200 provides warm weather shutdown.
The control of the solar thermal system is integrated with
the FW200 boiler control, and reduces boiler run time and
burner starts signifi cantly compared to independent sys-
tems. The solar pump will run whenever the collectors are
16°F (9°C) warmer than the bottom of the solar tank.
It is recommended to double the volume of the solar
thermal DHW tank compared to an equivalent conventional
indirect fi red DHW tank. This allows suffi cient backup
volume ("comfort zone") maintained by the boiler without
sacrifi cing capacity for solar harvesting.

tank when a demand is sensed by the DHW tank temperature sensor. When DHW is satisfied, or after one
hour, the boiler will return to space heating mode.
Upon first commissioning the automatic system
configuration starts. Wait 60 seconds and follow the
instructions displayed. You have the option of using
the factory settings or entering custom parameters to
better match the individual requirements.
Set the boiler for permanent day mode by switching
the dial on the FW200 to
— Comfort

2.11 System 11: Greenstar Heating Boiler
with zone pumps, relay panel, room
thermostats and DHW tank loading
Summary:
Single boiler with primary/secondary piping confi guration
supplying three heating zones controlled by individual
zone thermostats and a pump relay panel. Outdoor reset
with FW200 controller mounted on the boiler. 3rd party
room thermostats used to communicate heat demands
from the zones.
This system does not feature constant circulation and the
zone circulators runs only when a heat demand is communicated by the room thermostat and shut off when the
heat demand goes away. It is similar to Systems 8 and 10
except that a pump relay panel is being used.
Primary/secondary piping isolates the system fl ow from
the boiler fl ow and prevents the system from infl uencing
boiler performance.
This system works particularly well for installations with
other heat sources, e.g. wood stoves or signifi cant solar
gain. Compared to systems with the FW200 installed in the
room that will throttle down the boiler output when the
room reaches its set point, in this setup the thermostat
will shut the boiler off.
This system can also be used with a combi boiler (see
system 6) instead of the indirect fi red DHW tank.
Required components:
Greenstar heating boiler.
FW200 controller in the boiler.
Primary/secondary piping and system pump.
Thermostatic mixing valve (optional - overheat
protection for temperature sensitive floors).
3rd party room thermostats with dry contact closure
in each zone.
Zone pump relay panel, e.g. TACO SR503 or similar.
Indirect fired DHW tank.
Tank loading pump of sufficient capacity.
Additional instructions:
See manufacturer’s installation and operating instructions.
In detail:
This system runs on pure outdoor reset without room
feedback on the heating curve. The FW200 installed in the
boiler adjusts the heating curve (boiler supply temperature) according to outdoor temperature. The 3rd party
room thermostats turn the boiler and the zone pumps on
and off based on the conditions in the living space.
FW200 provides warm weather shutdown.
For temperature sensitive radiant fl oor applications install
a thermostatic tempering valve for overheat protection.

System 11: Setup and Programming
In this multi zone system the FW200 is installed in the
boiler for pure outdoor reset without room infl uence on
the heating curve.
Install suitable 3rd party thermostats in each zone in
a location that best represents its conditions. Avoid
locations exposed to direct or indirect sunlight, heat
sources, draft, etc. that can lead to malfunctioning.
DHW is generated by the boiler loading the indirect fi red
DHW tank following the DHW program. This system can
also be realized with a combi boiler eliminating the DHW
tank if the capacity is suffi cient for the DHW load.
Initial setup:
Program the 3rd party room thermostats according to the
manufacturer's instructions. It is recommended to set up a
day and night heating program with reduced temperatures
at night and when the zone is unoccupied.
Boiler and FW200 programming:
See the installation instructions for description of buttons
and displays, and for details on setup and programming.
Power up the boiler.
Additional information
With outdoor reset the boiler will provide the water
temperature according to the heating curve. There is no
room infl uence on the heating curve in this system.
The boiler will always attempt to run at its highest
efficiency in low fire for as long as necessary.
The boiler will shut down when the target temperature
is reached followed by a 3 minute post purge by
the pump unless the 3rd party room thermostat is
satisfied prior.
During DHW day mode the boiler will charge the DHW
tank when a demand is sensed by the DHW tank temperature sensor. When DHW is satisfied, or after one
hour, the boiler will return to space heating mode.
When commissioning for the first time, set the display-
language, date and time.

2.12 System 12: Greenstar Heating Boiler with
zone valves and room thermostats
Summary:
Single boiler with primary/secondary piping confi gura-
tion supplying three heating zones controlled by 3rd party
room thermostats with zone valves. Outdoor reset with
FW200 controller mounted on the boiler.
The zone circulator runs only when a heat demand is communicated by the room thermostats and shut off when the

Primary/secondary piping isolates the system fl ow from
the boiler fl ow and prevents the system from infl uencing
boiler performance.
This setup allows the use of a low energy ECM pump (e.g.
Grundfos Alpha) that adjusts the fl ow rate based on back
pressure depending on the number of zones calling.
This system works particularly well for installations with
other heat sources, e.g. wood stoves or signifi cant solar
gain. Compared to systems with the FW200 installed in the
room that will throttle down the boiler output when the
room reaches its set point, in this setup the thermostat
will shut the boiler off.
