6 – OPERATING SEQUENCE
TO START
a. Refer to Lighting Instructions on boiler and ignite pilot(s), if necessary.
b. With pilot(s) proven, close main line power switch, set all safety interlocks with contacts closed and open main manual shut-off
gas valve.
c. Set outdoor reset control and outdoor temperature controllers to desired settings.
d. Close bypass disconnect switch, adjust gas manifold pressure to required setting at 100% input rate (Natural
Gas - 3.5” W.C./ LP Gas - 10” W.C.) and check main burner operation.
e. When all necessary adjustments are completed, open bypass disconnect switch for automatic operation.
OPERATION
a. First Stage:
Outdoor reset control activates the “A” valve(s) (50% Rate) through contacts “R” and “W” of the #1 temperature controller.
The main burners will continue to operate until the outdoor reset control is satisfied.
The 50% input rate will be maintained until the outdoor air temperature drops to 1°F below the setting of the #1 temperature
controller.
b. Second Stage:
When the outdoor air temperature drops to 1°F below the setting of the #1 temperature controller contacts “R” and “B” make,
closing the “A” valve(s).
The outdoor reset control activates the “B” valve(s) (75% Rate) through contacts “R” and “B” of the #1 temperature controller
and “R” and “W” of the #2 temperature controller.
The main burners will continue to operate until the outdoor reset control is satisfied.
The second stage or 75% input rate will be maintained until the outdoor air temperature drops to 1°F below the setting of the
#2 temperature controller.
c. Third Stage:
When the outdoor air temperature drops to 1°F below setting of the #2 temperature controller contacts “R” and “B” make,
closing the “B” valve(s).
The outdoor reset control activates the “C” valve (100% Rate) through contacts “R” and “B” of both #1 and #2 temperature
controllers. The main burners will continue to operate until the outdoor reset control is satisfied.
The sequence of operation is in reverse as the outside air temperature rises. The actuating points of the temperature controllers
will be at the set-point.
TO SHUT DOWN
To shut down the boiler, open main disconnect switch and close main manual shut-off gas valve.
