Models 125-200 ship with a low loss header with integral pump, so a separate boiler pump does not need to be sized or fi eld-supplied.

NOTES:  

1.  Shaded area represents typical temperature rise.

2.  gpm = water fl ow in gallons per minute.

3.  l/s = water fl ow in liters per second.

4.  ft = pressure drop (headloss) through the boiler in feet of water.

5.  m = pressure drop (headloss) through the boiler in meters of water.

WARNING

This unit must be electrically grounded in accordance 

with the requirements of the authority having jurisdiction 

or, in the absence of such requirements, with the latest 

edition of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, 

in the U.S. and with the latest edition of CSA C22.1 

Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1, in Canada. Do not rely 

on the gas or water piping to ground the metal parts of 

the boiler. Plastic pipe or dielectric unions may isolate the 

boiler electrically. Service and maintenance personnel, 

who work on or around the boiler, may be standing on 

wet floors and could be electrocuted by an ungrounded 

boiler. Electrocution can result in severe injury or death.

 

 

WARNING

No Power to be applied to terminals 10-12 of TB1. 

Sensor Connections Only!  

 

7.A  Safety Warnings

NOTE: 

All internal electrical components have been  

pre-wired. No attempt should be made to connect 

electrical wires to any other location except the 

terminal blocks and line voltage hanging leads / 

pigtail.

NOTE: Single pole switches, including those of 

safety controls and protective devices, must not be 

wired in a grounded line.

 

 

NOTE: All units with manufacturer recommended and 

supplied boiler pumps may be powered using the 

supplied voltage. 

7.B  Main Power, 120V / 15 Amp Circuit

This boiler has a set of wires for the main power 

connection.  They are located in the area between the 

control bezel and the conduit anchor plate.  The black 

lead for 120V(H), the white for 120V(N) and a green 

lead provides an earth ground.  Appropriate service 

switches and circuit breakers need to be installed prior 

to the boiler based on national and local codes having 

jurisdiction. The size of the main power supply should 

be determined by Table 7. This table indicates the unit’s 

Full Load Amperage (FLA), Maximum Overcurrent 

Protection and Minimum Circuit Ampacity (MCA).  An 

overcurrent protection value should be selected based 

on these numbers. 

 CAUTION

Label all wires prior to disconnection when 

servicing controls. Wiring errors can cause 

improper and dangerous operation.

 ATTENTION

Au moment de l'entretien des commandes, 

etiquetez tousles fils avant de les debrancher. 

Les erreurs de cablage peuvent nuire au bon 

fonctionnement et etre dangereuses.

 CAUTION

Verify proper operation after operation servicing.

 ATTENTION

S'assurer que l'appareil fonctionne adequatement 

une fois l'entretien termine.

7.C 

Outdoor Sensor

An optional outdoor sensor can be purchased for the 

use with the outdoor reset or WWSD with thermal 

targeting.  See the Accessories List, Section 12.B on 

page 50.  The sensor must be installed in a shaded 

area, preferably on the north side of the structure, and 

must be installed above the highest expected snow 

line.

 

To use the outdoor sensor for warm weather 

shutdown (WWSD) only:

 Connect sensor to WWSD 

and COM terminals.  The control will then operate in 

Economy Mode settings using Thermal Targeting.  It 

will also shut the boiler off at outdoor temperatures 

higher than the selected WWSD temperature. 

To utilize Outdoor Reset: 

 Connect the sensor to OAS 

and COM Terminals.  The control will then operate 

based on the selected Outdoor Reset settings.  It will 

also shut the boiler off at outdoor temperatures higher 

than the selected WWSD temperature. 

Once the outdoor sensor is installed, see "8.C Sensor 

Programming" on page 33 for how to adjust the 

Outdoor Reset using the controller.
