children to use a hot water tap, or to draw their own bath
water.  Never leave a child or disabled person unattended in
a bathtub or shower.

The boiler should be located in an area that is inaccessible to

the general public.

The operating temperature of the boiler must be maintained
as follows:

• 120°F (49°C) or higher inlet water temperature to the boiler.

• 20°F (11°C) differential between the boiler’s inlet and

outlet (e.g. 120°F [49°C] inlet, 140°F [60°C] outlet
minimum design temperatures).

If the inlet water temperature into the boiler is less than

120°F (49°C), adjustments on the water bypass are needed.
Please contact your A.O. Smith qualified service agent.

CONTROL SYSTEM

The EMC modulation control system is a fully integrated, state of
the art electronic control system. It consists of sensors, output

devices, a power switch, a 24VAC transformer, wiring, and the
following printed circuit boards:
• Modulation Control Board (MCB)

• Power Distribution Board (PDB)
• User Interface Module (UIM)

The MCB contains circuitry for both master control and flame
control. Dip switches on the MCB are used to configure the system.

The User Interface Module (UIM) communicates with the user
through a set of touch pads and a 4-line, 20-character LCD display.
The PDB provides connection points for input power, the water

pump, and the transformer. It also distributes power to the system
and contains the system fuses.

The MCB also contains an external communications system to allow

for connection to a PC, a modem, an EMS system, or something
similar. Through this connection, multiple boilers can also be
linked together. 

CAUTION: The internal communications

cables should never be connected to the external
communications connectors, and vice-versa.

There are several microcontrollers used on the boards. These
control the temperature and ignition control functions for the

boiler. Inherent in the design are the normal operating

WATER TEMPERATURE REGULATION

HOT WATER CAN SCALD:  Boilers are intended to produce hot
water.  Water heated to a temperature which will satisfy space
heating, clothes washing, dish washing and other sanitizing needs
can scald and permanently injure you upon contact.  Some people
are more likely to be permanently injured by hot water than oth-
ers.  These include the elderly, children, the infirm or physically/
mentally disabled.  If anyone using hot water in your home fits
into one of theses groups or if there is a local code or state law
requiring a specific temperature water at the hot water tap, then
you must take special precautions.  In addition to using the low-
est possible temperature setting that satisfies your hot water
needs, a means such as a mixing valve shall be used at the hot
water taps used by these people or at the hot water supply tank.
Mixing valves are available at plumbing supply or hardware stores.
Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for installation of the valves.
Before changing the thermostat setting on the hot water system
controller, see Table 1.

Hot water temperatures required for automatic dishwasher
and laundry use can cause scald burns resulting in serious
personal injury and/or death.  The temperature at which injury
occurs varies with the person's age and time of exposure.
The slower response time of children, aged or disabled
persons increases the hazards to them.  Never allow small
