Install a 15 am fused disconnect or service switch.  (15 amp). All electrical conduit and hardware should be installed so that it does not interfere with 

the removal of any cover, inhibit service or maintenance, or prevent access between the unit and walls or another unit.  

 

All AM Series pump relays are rated for 3A max. When pumps used exceed 3A, an appropriately sized external relay or starter must be used.  

CONNECTING UNITS IN CASCADE: 

Up to eight boilers or water heaters may be combined in a cascading 
system using the optional Cascade Sequencer. Refer to the AERCO 
Cascade Sequencer user manual (GF-146-CS) for installation details. 

MODBUS INTERFACE CONNECTIONS: 

The AM unit can be controlled from a building management system via MODBUS 
interface. This requires a Communication Module on each unit (AM399-1000: factory 
installed; AM199/250: optional). Refer to the AM Series MODBUS User Manual (GF-
146-MB) for wiring and setup details.
