Gas Fired Boiler

16

Harsco Industrial, Patterson-Kelley Technical Service 1.877.728.5351

 

 

 

3.4.3 Low Voltage (TB1) Terminal Block

 

Enable/Disable 

TB1-1

 and 

TB1-2

 can be used to remotely enable or disable the boiler.  The functionality of 

these terminals is user-configurable through the NURO controls, but generally closure of the Enable/Disable 
circuit provides a call for heat to the boiler.  Opening this circuit prevents the boiler from running. 
The boiler ships with a factory-installed jumper across the Enable/Disable terminals.  This circuit is energized 
with a 

24VAC

 potential, so the contacts on any remote enable devices must be rated for minimum 

24VAC

4-20mA Analog Input 

– 

TB1-3 

and 

TB1-4 

can be used to provide a remote analog 4-20mA control signal to the 

boiler.  This analog signal can be used to change the boiler’s operating setpoint or firing rate.

 

Spare Analog Input 

– 

TB1-5 

and 

TB1-6 

are reserved for future use.

 

HDR Temp Sensor 

– 

TB1-7 

and 

TB1-8 

can be used to connect a remote header temperature sensor, installed 

in the primary hydronic system piping, downstream of all the boilers.  This temperature sensor must be a 2-wire 
12k

 NTC thermistor.  This circuit is energized by the boiler with a 

5VDC

 potential.

 

DHW Stat/Sensor 

– 

TB1-9 

and 

TB1-10 

can be used to connect either an aquastat or remote DHW temperature 

sensor installed in a domestic hot water storage tank.  If using an aquastat, use a SPST normally-closed, break 
on rise type with either a fixed or adjustable deadband above and below the setpoint. 
Alternatively, if using a temperature sensor, it must be a 2-wire 12k

 NTC thermistor and be of sufficient length 

to measure an accurate storage tank temperature.  This circuit is energized by the boiler with a 

5VDC

 potential.

 

Outdoor Temp Sensor 

– 

TB1-11 

and 

TB1-12 

can be used to connect an outdoor air temperature sensor which 

allows the NURO control to be programmed to run an outdoor air schedule.  The outdoor air temperature sensor 
must be a 2-wire 12k

 NTC thermistor and should be installed on the North face of the building and shielded 

from direct sunlight exposure. This circuit is energized by the boiler with a 

5VDC

 potential.

 

Night Setback 

– 

TB1-13 

and 

TB1-14 

can be used to connect a day/night or occupancy timer.  Closure of the 

Night Setback circuit enables the Night Setback mode which reduces the boiler’s operating setpoint.  Opening 
this circuit resumes normal operation. This circuit is energized by the boiler with a 

5VDC

 potential, so the contacts 

on the day/night timer must be rated for minimum 

5VDC

.

 

4-20mA Analog Output 

– 

TB1-15 

and 

TB1-16 

provide a 4-20mA analog output signal which tracks the boiler’s 

firing rate.  When operating at full power (maximum firing rate), the boiler will provide a 20mA output.  When 
operating at mimimum power (minimum firing rate), the boiler will provide a 4mA output.

 

Ground 

– 

TB1-17 

provides an equipment (frame) ground connection for input, output, or communication 

connections.  For independently powered control devices, it may be necessary to create a common ground. 

Cascade Shield & Cascade 

– 

TB1-18

,

 TB1-19 

and 

TB1-20 

can be used to setup a cascade system with multiple 

SONIC boilers with NURO controls.  Terminals 

TB1-19 

and 

TB1-20 

are reserved for the cascade communication 

between the master and member boilers.  Terminal 

TB1-18 

should be used to connect the cascade 

communication wiring shield between all boilers.  The cascade and shielding must be wired from the master 
boiler to each individual member boiler in a daisy-chain fashion.  

NOTE

: Only ground the shield at the master 

boiler. 

MODBUS COM & MODBUS Shield 

– 

TB1-22

,

 TB1-23 

and 

TB1-24 

can be used to integrate the boiler with a 

Building Management System (BMS), Protocol Converter, or other device capable of RS-485 2-wire MODBUS 
communication.  Terminals 

TB1-22 

and 

TB1-23 

are reserved for MODBUS and terminal 

TB1-18 

provides a 

connection for the MODDBUS communication wire shield.  

NOTE

: Only ground the shield at the master boiler. 

ECOM 1, 2 & 3 

– 

TB1-25

TB1-26 

and 

TB1-27

 can be used to connect a wireless outdoor air temperature sensor.  

The wireless receiver should be installed at or near the boiler, and the wireless temperature sensor should be 
installed on the North face of the building and shielded from direct sunlight exposure. 

Refer to 

Section 6.1

 for proper wiring and configuration of the electrical connections.
