NSKW INSTALLATION MANUAL

Hydronic Section cont.

Open the screw 2 turns only in the end of the pump motor

(if Grundfos

pumps are used) to allow trapped air to be

discharged and to ensure the motor housing has been

flooded.

Route thermistor wires to NSKW. Remove yellow thermistor

wires on TB 3 and 4 from control box and connect

thermistor wires from geothermal storage tank. Set the

pump sampling (PS) in the set up of the control board to

continuously (C) sampling (reference Note 5 in the Wiring

Schematic).

Adequate rate of flow is very important to system

performance and long term reliability. Follow the guidelines

for recommended flow and pipe sizing in the NSKW

recommendations table.
