On the four stage units, the left low fi re and high fi re switches
will interrupt power to the control module under a blocked fl ue or
inlet condition. Th is will cause the pilot and left and right main gas
valves to close. Th e right switches will only shut down the right main
gas valve under a blocked fl ue or inlet condition. Th e relay board
automatically selects between pressure switches as the boiler/water
heater changes stages. Tables 15 and 16 identify how pressure switch
control changes during boiler/water heater staging. Tables 17 and 18
identify the control actions if a low air condition occurs at any stage.
For example, when operating at stage 2, the left and right low fi re
pressure switches monitor the boiler/water heater, since the blowers
are operating at low speed. When the unit stages to stage 3 the left
blower will be switched to high speed and the relay board will switch
the circuit so that the left high fi re switch monitors the diff erential
pressure for the left side. Th e right low fi re pressure switch will
continue to control the right side until the unit stages to stage 4.
At that point, the right high fi re pressure switch will automatically
take over monitoring duties for the right side. A low air condition
in either plenum will cause a red light to illuminate on the indicator
board.

OPERATION SEQUENCE, 2 STAGE
D300 THROUGH D900
On Models D1050-2100, 2 stage, factory jumpers are
installed on remote staging terminal strip to force 2
stage operation. Refer to the included connection and
wiring diagrams for further control system information.
POWER ON:
Demand for Heat:
1. BTC staging control starts pump and begins 50 second delay
before energizing Stage 1.
2. Stage switch 1 closes.
3. System checks primary limit and other interlocks. Will not start
if either switch is open.
Prepurge:
1. TDR1 energizes starting a 40 second prepurge cycle.
2. K3 energizes the low speed side of the blower. If the side wall
vent option is used the power venter is energized, closing the
power venter interlock. Th
e power vent indicator light illuminates.
3. Th e low air indicator light will remain lit until the blower comes
up to speed. Th e indicator light will turn off and prepurge
indicator light will illuminate when the pressure switches make.
4. At the end of the prepurge cycle TDR1 times out. K3 opens
and the prepurge indicator light goes out. K2 closes sending
24V ac to the ignition control.
5. K2 will switch the pilot valve, main valve and blower to the
high or low fi re mode, depending on the staging control input.
Ignition Trial:
1. Once energized, the fl ame sense module (FSM) initiates 4 second
diagnostic cycle before sending 24V ac to the PV terminal and
energizing the ignition transformer.
2. Th e fl ame failure LED will be lit during the 4 second diagnostic
cycle unless the unit is confi gured for CSD-1. When the PV
terminal energizes, the LED will turn off . If the ignition trial
fails, the LED will relight.
3. Th e pilot valve and ignition transformer are energized for the
10 second ignition trial. Th e pilot indicator light illuminates
during this time.
4. If the ignition att empt is unsuccessful, the ignition module will
retry in 5 minutes.
5. Since the staging controller remains powered, it will continue
to stage up for as long as the call for heat exists. Th e blower,
pump and power venter will remain for as long as a call for heat
exists.
