4.

Connect all field-installed devices (draft
switches, relays, timers, outdoor temperature
reset devices, etc.) to the heater wiring at points
labeled Field Interlock.

SECTION 3.
Operating Instructions

NOTE: Safe lighting and other performance criteria
were met with the gas manifold and control assembly
installed on the boiler when tested in accordance with
ANSI Z21.13.

WARNING

For your safety, when starting the heater, keep your
head and face well away from the lower firebox
opening to prevent any risk of personal injury.
Vent pipes, drafthoods, and boiler tops get hot!
These surfaces can cause serious burns. Do not
touch these surfaces while the boiler is in operation.

3.1 Start-Up Procedure

1.

Make sure the system pump is running and there
is water flow.

2.

Follow the lighting and shutdown procedure in
Figure 27 or 28.

3.2 Setting the Temperature Controls

The hi-limit switch is factory set, and should

not be adjusted above the factory setting.

WARNING

Adjusting the temperature control past the
recommended setting can result in a scalding injury.
Hot water can produce third degree burns in 6
seconds at 140°F (60°C) and in 30 seconds at
130°F (54°C).

3.2.1 Remote Water Heater Temperature

Control

The water heater can be used with a field-

supplied tank aquastat, sequencing control, or other
temperature control device, which will call the unit for
heat when the temperature goes below the controller’s
setpoint.  For the most efficient setting, set the tank
temperature at the lowest possible setting for adequate
hot water in the application.

After a setting has been chosen for the tank

temperature control, set the heater temperature control
10°F (6°C) higher.  The heater’s temperature control
senses the inlet water temperature to the heater.  The
heater’s manual reset high limit (and automatic reset
high limit, if applicable) senses heater outlet
temperature.

If the unit is equipped with an automatic reset

high limit, set the automatic reset high limit 20°F
(11°C) above the outlet temperature to avoid nuisance
lockouts.  Set the manual reset high limit 5°F (3°C)
above the automatic reset high limit.

For units that only have a manual reset high limit

(no automatic reset high limit), set the manual reset
high limit 20°F (11°C) above the outlet temperature to
avoid nuisance lockouts.

Example, Imperial units:  If the tank temperature

is set to 140°F, set the heater’s temperature control to
150°F (140°F + 10°F).  Further, if the temperature rise
through the heater is 25°F, the outlet temperature will
be 175°F (150°F + 25°F).  Therefore, set the automatic
reset high limit to 195°F (170°F + 20°F), and the
manual reset high limit to 200°F (195°F + 5°F).

Example, Metric units:  If the tank temperature is

set to 60°C, set the heater’s temperature control to
66°C (60°C + 6°C).  Further, if the temperature rise
through the heater is 15°C, the outlet temperature will
be 81°C (66°C + 15°C).  Therefore, set the automatic
reset high limit to 92°C (81°C + 11°C), and the
manual reset high limit to 95°C (92°C + 3°C).

3.2.2 Internal Water Heater

Temperature Control

When an external control is not used, the

circulator between the heater and the storage tank must
run continuously, so that the heater’s temperature
control can detect and control the water temperature in
the storage tank.  The water heater’s temperature
control is adjusted to its lowest temperature position
(130°F, 54°C) when shipped from the factory.  This is
the preferred starting point for setting the temperature
control.
