MOD–U–PAK CONTROL SYSTEM
WATER BOILERS
PROPORTIONAL WATER TEMPERATURE CONTROL W/OUTDOOR RESET (CONTROL SET NO. 2)
1 – DESCRIPTION
This Mod-U-Pak System is a proportional system in which boiler water temperature and boiler gas input are modulated proportionately to changes in outside temperature.
For maximum comfort the boiler-water temperature varies inversely to the change in outside temperature; that is, as the outside temperature increases or decreases, the boiler water temperature decreases or increases correspondingly.
For maximum performance the input to the boiler is varied inversely to the change in outside temperature; that is, as the heating load
requirement changes due to an increase or decrease in outside temperature the gas input to the boiler decreases or increases
respectively.
Three controls are used to accomplish the modulating sequence: an indoor-outdoor reset control, and two dual-acting temperature
controllers. The indoor-outdoor control maintains and modulates the boiler water temperature in accordance with a change in outside
temperature; that is, as the outside temperature varies, the temperature setting of the control automatically changes, thus raising or
lowering the boiler water temperature. The dual-acting temperature controllers vary the gas input to the boiler by sensing a change in
outside temperature and thus opening or closing the three main automatic operating valves. The first gas valve flow circuit incorporates an orifice which provides 50% of the maximum flow rate, the second valve flow circuit incorporates an orifice which provides
75% of the maximum flow rate, and the third valve delivers 100% of the maximum flow rate.

3 – CONTROL INSTALLATION
When installing the T475A Outdoor Reset Control or the T675A Temperature Controllers, follow the manufacturer’s installation instructions supplied with the appropriate control. These instructions cover the proper mounting of the control, sensing element and element
guard.
4 – WIRING
All wiring must be done in accordance with the current National Electrical Code and local codes. Refer to wiring diagrams in rear of
booklet for correct wiring of controls. Contact PB Heat, LLC for application of controls, ignition systems or codes not covered by these
wiring diagrams.
5 – TEMPERATURE CHARTS
The following charts will enable you to set the controls under various design conditions. The charts are based on outside design temperatures of 0°F, -10°F, and -20°F with an indoor temperature of 70°F. The ratio setting of the T475A outdoor reset control is recommended as 1 to 1; that is, as the outdoor temperature varies 1°F the boiler water temperature will vary 1°F. Maximum boiler water temperature is assumed to be 180°F. If other maximum boiler water temperatures are desired, start at the outdoor design temperature,
such as 0°F, and reduce the water temperature 5°F for each increment of 5°F rise in outdoor temperature.
