CHECKING AND ADJUSTING

Adjust Steam Pressure Control

•  Steam pressure limit control (pressuretrol) shuts 

off gas to main burners when steam pressure in 

boiler reaches cut-off setpoint (i.e. sum of cut-in and 

differential setpoints). 

•  Burners refire when steam pressure drops to cut-in 

setpoint. 

•  System pressure requirements are based on size and 

condition of pipes, and load.

•  Cut-in setting of pressuretrol should never be less than 

twice system pressure drop for good system operation. 
A.  In typical single family residence with clean one-

pipe heating system and cast iron radiation, cut-in 

is usually set at minimum setting, i.e. 1/2 psi.

•  Steam radiation is sized based on square feet of 

equivalent direct radiation (EDR). This is based on 

steam pressure in the radiator of just less than 2 psi. 

•  Set differential adjustment at 1 psi, i.e. steam pressure 

required in radiators. Results in cut-off setpoint of 1½ 

psi. 

•  Larger systems or other types of systems such as two 

pipe systems, or systems with convectors or fan coil 

units, pressuretrol settings need to be determined on 

system-by-system basis.

•  Cut-in setpoint is determined by system pressure drop 

to furthest radiator or terminal unit. Double system 

pressure drop as safety factor, resulting in the rule 

cut-in setting should never be less than twice system 

pressure drop.

•  Differential setpoint is steam pressure required at 

terminal heating units.

Boiler will now operate in correct pressure range. It 

maintains enough steam pressure to send steam out to 

furthest radiator, and not go over optimum steam pressure 

required at the radiators.

Checking Controls

Low Water Cut-Off

A.  Turn off power to boiler or turn thermostat down to 

lowest setting. 

B.  Drain water to below visible bottom of water gauge 

glass. Turn power on and turn thermostat to call for 

heat. 

C.  Gas valve opens for approximately 10 seconds 

(time delay on probe type LWCO), gas valve will 

close and red indicator illuminates on LWCO. 

D.  When water is restored, it waits 30 seconds before 

reactivating burner circuit.

Boiler Equipped With Optional WF-2U-24

 

Water 

Feeder

 

E.  Continue thermostat call for heat after low water 

cut off recognizes low water condition. 

F.  One minute time delay, water feeder starts feeding 

water to boiler. 

G.  Feeder feeds for one minute, and then goes into 

another one minute waiting period. 

H.  Cycle of alternately waiting and feeding will repeat 

until :

• For Model 67D-1 float type low water cutoffs - as 

the water level raises the float above the burner 

cut off switch level, the burners should ignite. The 

water feeder remains powered until the water 

level raises the float to the water feeder switch 

level, satisfying the water feeder.

• For probe type low water cutoffs - the water level 

will rise until water in the boiler makes contact 

with the probe, satisfying the water feeder, and 

igniting the burners.

I.  In either case, one and two inches of water should 

be visible in glass gauge when both water feeder is 

satisfied, and burners are allowed to ignite.

• Time delays in feed cycles are designed to prevent 

boiler from flooding due to slow return lines.

• To check pressure limit, run boiler until pressure 

reaches system demand. Turn pressure screw and drop 

pressure setting until boiler shuts down. This shows the 

pressure limit is operating properly.

• Refer to control manufacturer’s instructions for more 

information.

Check Thermostat Operation 
Thermostat set above temperature indicated on 

thermometer, boiler should ignite. 
Verify thermostat turns boiler off when room temperature 

reaches selected setting and starts boiler operating when 

room temperature falls few degrees.
Set thermostat for desired temperature. Conditions in your 

home and location of thermostat will govern this setting.
