Gas Fired Boiler

The 

SC-3000

 and 

SC-4000

 boilers are 

equipped with 

ENVI®

 

control; an intelligent 

control system 

with advanced 

features such as 

text-based display, 

communication 

capabilities, and 

boiler sequencing. 

Errors are date 

and time stamped 

providing built-in

 

history of boiler 

status and performance.
This control constantly tracks the load by recording burner high, low and mid run hours. One control to do it 

all – temperature control, flame safeguard, firing rate control, blocked flue protection, outdoor air reset, freeze 

protection, built-in cascade sequencing, MODBUS communication and more. 
The boiler control has a text display panel. The display panel is used to setup and monitor boiler operation by 

means of six push buttons

information on various screens. The display screen is back lit for ease of viewing. Pressing any key will illuminate 

the back light.

Gas Fired Boiler

After checking controls by manual 

adjustment, make sure they are 

always reset to their proper settings. 

Never attempt to operate a boiler 

that has failed to pass all the safety 

checks described below. 

Before attempting to start the boiler, make sure the following items have 

been completed. Refer to the engineering manual for your model for 

additional information.

1. Inspect the gas train, blower, ignition electrode and boiler in general to be sure 

there was no damage during shipment or installation.
2. Flue gas from the boiler is properly vented;
3. Gas connection has been made, pressure tested for leakage and the line 

purged of air. Make sure all required vents have been installed.
4. Water connections are complete and the boiler and system have been filled 

and purged of air.
5. The boiler is connected to the correct electrical power source listed on the 

nameplate, and having a disconnect having adequate overload protection.
6. Combustion air openings are not obstructed in any way and have adequate   

                                                                      capacity.
7. The boiler is placed the proper distance from any combustible walls
8. Relief valves have been piped to an acceptable drain at a safe point of discharge.
9. Condensate piping is properly connected.
10. Verify system water quality is within specifications.

The following checks of safety systems must be made before putting the boiler into normal operation.
Before firing the boiler refer to 

Section 4

 for information on the use of the controls, lighting, and shut-down 

procedures.

WARNING

If the expected error code(s) do not 

appear, call for qualified service.

Test the ignition system safety shutdown as follows:

1. Cycle the boiler on by generating a heat request. (The method for this will depend on your boiler configuration.)
2. Place the boiler in operation at the high fire setting BNR TEST MODE HI.
3. Smoothly close the downstream manual isolation valve to reduce the gas flow and cause flame failure.
4 The display will show LOCKING FLAME FAILURE indicating a flame failure. The lockout will remain until the control is reset.

After completing this test, turn off the boiler and open the downstream manual isolation valve and turn the boiler 

back on.

3.9.1 test of Ignition safety system

The boiler is furnished with a probe-type low water cut-out in the outlet nozzle. Test as follows:
Push and hold the red “Push to test” button for at least 5 seconds. A manual lockout reset error displaying 

LOCKOUT LOW WATER LEVEL

 on the display panel should occur. The 

LED

 indicator on the Low Water cut-off will no 

longer be illuminated.

Optional Test Method: 

First turn the boiler off, and then turn the pump off. Isolate the boiler from the system.Drain 

the water level below the low water cut-off probe. Turn the boiler back on. It should not operate, and a manual 

lockout reset error displaying 

LOCKOUT LOW WATER LEVEL

 on the display panel should occur. The 

LED

 indicator 

on the Low Water cut-off will no longer be illuminated.
Return the system to normal operation by refilling and restarting the boiler and pump.

3.9.2 test of low Water Cut-out

3.9.3 test of high-limit Control

Fire the boiler and test the high limit control as follows:
With the main burner operating, turn down the temperature setting on the "high-limit" thermostat until the main 

burner shuts off. A manual reset lockout displaying 

LOCKING HIGH LIMIT 

on the display panel will occur. The 

high-limit switch must be manually reset prior to resetting the boiler at the display panel. Readjust the high-limit 

thermostat to the desired setpoint.

low Gas Pressure switch

The boiler is furnished with a low gas pressure switch. The operation of this switch must be checked by slowly 

closing the main gas cock while the burner is operating. The switch should shut down the main burner. When 

the gas pressure switch opens, a manual reset lockout displaying 

LOCKING LOW GAS PRESSURE

 on the display 

panel will occur. Upon re-opening the main gas cock, the

 LOCKING LOW GAS PRESSURE

 will remain on until the 

display panel is manually reset.

high Gas Pressure switch

The boiler is furnished with a high pressure switch that must be checked by closing the downstream gas cock 

with the boiler off. When the boiler is started, it should enter its normal starting cycle and fail on high gas pressure 

when the automatic gas valves open. The high gas pressure switch actuation is evident when a manual reset 

lockout displaying

 LOCKING HIGH GAS PRESSURE

 on the display panel occurs. Upon re-opening the gas cock, 

the

 LOCKING HIGH GAS PRESSURE

 indicator will remain on until the display panel is manually reset.

3.9.4 test of Gas Pressure switches 

The user should become 

thoroughly familiar with the 

operation of the boiler and controls 

before attempting to make any 

adjustments.

!

CAUTION

Changing parameters requires an 

understanding of the parameters 

and the functionality of the boiler.

The boiler may not function 

properly if parameters are changed 

from the factory values.
