USER'S INFORMATION MANUAL
1a. Limit (Steam Boiler). An electrical device that
automatically interrupts the boiler operation
when the steam pressure exceeds the "CUT IN"
pressure plus the differential (1 to 5 psi).
Maximum Pressure setting is 14 psig. The set
point is usually less than 5 psig.
Original equipment with this boiler is a Honey-
well
PA404A1009.
interrupted when the steam pressure exceeds
the the "CUT IN" pressure plus the differential.
Boiler opera-tion resumes automatically when
the system pres-sure falls below the "CUT IN"
pressure.
1b. Limit Control may incorporate a low water cut-
off feature that will interrupt boiler operation
upon loss of water in the boiler. If the low water
cut-off function is activated to interrupt boiler
operation, follow the instructions TO TURN
OFF GAS TO THE APPLIANCE (see Figures
3-5) and contact a qualified service agency.
2. Flame Rollout Switch (FRS). An electrical
device that automatically interrupts the boiler
operation when excessive heat is present in
the combustion area. The control is a thermal
fuse device that will require replacement if it
is activated. If the control has been activated
to interrupt the boiler operation, do not attempt
to restart the boiler. Contact a qualified service
agency.
3. Blocked Vent Switch (BVS) An electrical
device that automatically interrupts the boiler
operation when there is a blockage in the vent
pipe or chimney. The control is located on the
side of the draft hood and is a manual reset
device. If the control is activated to interrupt
operation of the boiler, do not attempt to restart
the boiler. Contact a qualified service agency.
4. Pilot. The pilot provides an ignition source for
the main burners. Your boiler has an
intermittent
(spark
intermittent pilot ignites only when there is a call
for heat and extinguishes when the call for heat
ends. See Figure 6.
5. Gas Valve. The gas valve monitors pilot flame
and regulates gas flow to the burners and pilot.
