GOLD CGi Gas-Fired Water Boiler — Boiler Manual

Operation — sequence

9a

Figure 30 

Control module sequence of operation — status light indications

1. 

Read  Operating  instructions

  on  page  40.  This 

information is also located on a label on the inside 

of the boiler jacket door panel.

Raise 

room thermostat to call for heat.

3. 

Circulator energizes. 

If limit circuit is closed, the 

inducer starts. After pressure switch proves proper 

airflow,  control  module  initiates  30-second  pre-

purge.

4. 

Control module sparks

 the pilot and opens pilot 

valve in main gas valve.

a.  If pilot 

does not 

light within 15 seconds, pilot valve 

is closed and spark generator is turned off. Control 

module initiates a 15-second postpurge, then starts 

a new cycle.

b.  If pilot 

does 

light and control module senses flame 

current, spark generator is turned off and main valve 

opens.

5. 

During main burner operation:

a.  Control module monitors pilot flame current. 

If signal is lost

, main valve closes, spark gen-

erator activates and sequence returns to step 

4

.

b. 

If power is interrupted

, control system 

shuts 

off

 pilot and main gas valves and restarts at 

step 

1

 

when power is restored.

6.  In  the  event  the 

limit  control  shuts  down  the 

boiler

 

— The control module closes the pilot and 

main gas valves, but keeps the inducer operating for 

15-second postpurge.
 

— The circulator continues to operate.

Lower 

room  thermostat  setting  to  stop  call  for 

heat. Thermostat is satisfied — Pilot and main gas 

valves are closed — Inducer operates for 15-second 

postpurge — Circulator is shut off.

8.  Boiler is now in the 

off cycle

.

9. 

Repeat 

steps 

1

 

through 

6

 

several  times  to  verify 

operation.

10. 

Return 

the thermostat to normal setting.

11. Set thermostat heat anticipator setting as instructed 

in 

Figure 32

, page 39.
