9.11 Boiler Delays, Alarms and Protective Actions
To protect the life of the appliance, improve comfort, and maximize energy savings, the
following timings have been incorporated into the control logic:
a) Pump delay: each time the room setpoint is
satisfied, the circulator pump continues to
run for 4 minutes;
b) DHW delay: each time the domestic
hot water demand is satisfied, a 4 minute delay
must pass before the end of the service;
c) Time delay in restarting the burner in its normal functioning state, every time the burner
stops, there is a delay time of 3 minutes before the boiler restarts again.
9.12 Boiler Circulator Pump Protection
During the summer months, the circulators pumps are run once a day for around 15 seconds to
prevent it from seizing.
