on control.

CoNtRol oPERatIoN:

 Control switch "On" 

position and safety end switches are closed, "Safety 

Switch" LED is lit. Once in operating mode, control 

uses well-mounted (RTD) sensor to continuously 

monitor water temperature.

Thermostat calls for heat ("TT" LED is lit), control will 

energize circulator ("Circ" LED is lit) for 30 seconds 

to establish flow. Control will then measure water 

temperature and differential setting, perform check 

for "open" or "shorted" RTD sensor, verify all safety 

end switches are "closed," check for stuck or welded 

element relay contacts. Next, control will energize 

only one element ("Element" LED is lit) and monitor 

water temperature for 60 seconds. Control will 

energize additional elements at 30 second intervals 

to bring system up to set point temperature in 5 

minutes.

Once system reaches set point temperature and 

there is still call for heat, control will modulate 

number of elements on and off in order to maintain 

set point temperature. Required number of elements  

energized is determined  by heating demand, which 

is difference between actual boiler water temperature 

and set point temperature.

After call for heat has been satisfied, elements will 

de-energize ("Element" LEDs turn off) by control and 

circulator will continue to be energized for 3 

minutes to purge boiler

. After 3 minutes control 

will de-energize circulator ("Circ" LED turns off).

If during start-up or during operation safety end 

switch opens its respective contact, control de-

energizes all elements, continues to energize 

circulator, and flashes visible fault code ("Fault" LED 

flashes) along with audible fault code. (See fault 

codes (below)) Control has built-in reset function.

tEmPERatURE SEttING:

 Water "Set point" 

temperature adjustment dial on control should be set 

at designed boiler water temperature.

CoNtRol moUNtING:

 Control mounted using 

1/2" tall plastic standoffs. Indicator LEDs are visible 

through clear polycarbonate viewing window on front 

cover.

PRotECtIoN fRom lIqUIDS:

 Control and other 

components located within control panel are sensitive 

to water and other liquids. Protect components on 
panel from contact with liquids

board.
Use multimeter to take ohm reading across RTD leads.

Properly functioning RTD will produce reading of ap-

proximately 1000 ohms at 70°F. Faulty RTD will read 

either 0 or 1 on multimeter.
Replace RTD if necessary.
