B. Install Your Thermostat
The thermostat location has an important effect on the operation of your boiler system. BE SURE TO FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS
INCLUDED WITH YOUR THERMOSTAT.
Locate the thermostat about 5 ft above the floor on an inside wall. It may be mounted directly on the wall or on a vertical mounted outlet box.
It should be sensing average room temperature. Avoid the following:
DEAD SPOTS: behind doors corners and alcoves.
HOT SPOTS: concealed pipes, fireplaces, TV sets, radios, lamps, direct sunlight, and kitchens.
COLD SPOTS: concealed pipes or ducts, unheated rooms on other side of wall, and stairwells - drafts.
Set heat anticipator at 0.7 amps. Connect 24 volt thermostat leads to the 2 yellow wires located in service switch junction box, located on outer
jacket of boiler. See Fig. 17 for service switch junction box and thermostat field wiring connections.
C. Connect Circulator Pump Wiring
See Fig. 17 for service switch junction box and circulator pump field wiring connections. A 5 ft wiring harness with flexible metal conduit is
supplied to connect the circulator pump to the service switch junction box. If the two 120 volt circulator wire terminals inside the junction box
are not used, please leave the 2 wire nuts installed on black and white leads to prevent the short circuit.
CAUTION: Label all wires prior to disconnection when servicing controls. Wiring errors can cause improper and
dangerous operation. Verify proper operation after servicing.
PROCEDURE 8—CONTROLS AND ACCESSORIES
This section provides a brief description of the key controls and accessories found in the BW9 boiler.
See the Troubleshooting section of the Service Hints chapter of this installation manual for detailed sequences of operation and troubleshooting
procedures. See the Repair Parts chapter of this manual for locations of all control components and accessories described.
A. Intergrated Boiler Control (IBC)
The Integrated Boiler Control (IBC) is a microprocessor based controller for a high efficiency gas boiler that monitors all safety controls and which
controls the operation of the combustion air blower, circulator pump, burner, and a combination hot surface igniter/flame sensor. This controller
is not intended for use with a vent damper. This controller is mounted on the control panel inside of the boiler and contains 5 diagnostic indicator
lights.
B. Gas Control Valve
The electrically controlled 24 Volt Honeywell Model VR8205 Combination Gas Control Valve is designed to meet the requirements for use with
hot surface ignition systems found in the BW9. The valve is piped to the gas/air mixer.
C. Hot Surface Igniter
The 120 volt Hot Surface Igniter heats up to 1800°F to initiate combustion of the gas in the BW9 burner. The igniter is mounted next to the burner
through the gas/air mixer. The igniter also serves as a means for proving the main burner flame by flame rectification. In the event of a lack of
flame signal on 3 consecutive trials for ignition, the IBC will lockout. The

the thermostat’s call for heat, or by turning the service switch off, then back on.
