  • Page 5: Installation Considerations

    INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS This section of the Service Manual covers some of the critical installation requirements that, when overlooked, often result in operational problems, down time and needless parts replacement. Costs to correct installation errors are not covered under the limited warranty. Ensure all installation requirements and instructions contained in the Instruction Manual that came with the boiler/ water heater have been followed prior to performing any service procedures.
  • Page 6: Venting

    VENTING This section of the Service Manual is not a complete venting installation instruction. Refer to the Instruction Manual that came with the boiler/water heater; ensure the venting has been installed per all Instruction Manual requirements. Failing to install the factory provided vent and/or intake air terminations, exceeding the maximum equivalent vent and/or intake air piping lengths, adding too many elbows to the intake air and/or vent pipes, installing the wrong vent intake air pipe size, will cause operational problems, improper combustion, rough starting/operation and Control System lock out costs to correct installation errors are not covered under...
  • Page 7: Boiler/Water Heater Controls

    BOILER/WATER HEATER CONTROLS The controls that are improperly installed or configured can cause serious operational and service related problems such as short cycling. This section provides information for how various controls can work together or independently to provide proper boiler/water heater and system control.
  • Page 8: Installation Checklist

    INSTALLATION CHECKLIST The list below represents some of the most critical installation requirements that, when overlooked, often result in operational problems, down time and needless parts replacement. Before performing any troubleshooting procedures use the list below to check for installation errors. Costs to correct installation errors are not covered under the limited warranty.

  • Page 11: Operation And Service

    OPERATION AND SERVICE MODULATING FIRE OPERATION XB boilers & XWH water heaters are modulating systems. The control system modulates the firing rate of the burner to match system load by controlling the speed of the combustion blower. They do not have a gas orifice. The combustion blower "pulls" fuel gas from the outlet of the 24 VAC gas valve (when energized) into a venturi that is connected to the inlet of the Combustion Blower.
  • Page 12: Heat Exchanger Assembly

    HEAT EXCHANGER ASSEMBLY The heat exchanger transfers heat from the hot flue gases to the heating system’s water. Combustion products including flue gas condensate, which are formed in the heat exchanger are evacuated. The heat exchanger includes the following interfaces: •...
  • Page 13 Water Connection Heat Exchangers are equipped with 2 water male connections with NPT threading, according to the ANSI/ASME B1.20.1 standard, which are sized according to the capacity of the heat exchanger. Flue Gas Outlet Connection The heat exchanger is equipped with an evacuation for the combustion products at the back side. Flue gas outlets are sized according to the capacity of the heat exchanger.
  • Page 14: Venturi And Gas Train Assembly

    VENTURI AND GAS TRAIN ASSEMBLY The gas train includes a venturi connected to the inlet of the combustion blower. The outlet of the 24 VAC gas valve is also connected to the venturi by a manifold gas line. There is a shutoff valve installed in the manifold gas line for start up and service procedures. The venturi contains a convergent/divergent nozzle (cone shaped restrictor) that constricts the air passage to the blower.
  • Page 15: Burner Assembly

    BURNER ASSEMBLY The burner is a stainless steel radial fire burner with a woven steel fiber surface. It is installed in the center of the horizontal heat exchanger. The burner is mounted inside the recess of the heat exchanger. The spark igniter on the boiler/water heater is a 120VAC igniter. The igniter receives power from the J5 socket on the Control Board. The 110V from the board is then passed to an ignition transformer.

  • Page 17: Flame Sensor

    FLAME SENSOR Ignition of the burner is controlled electronically. The principle of operation for electronic ignition relies on flame sensing voltage to prove the fuel gas flowing to the burner has been ignited and is burning safely. Flame sensing requires correct power supply polarity and an adequate earth ground to the boiler/water heater's burner. See Figure 7 on Page 15, Figure 8 and Figure 9 on Page 16 for the Burner Assembly.
  • Page 18: Spark Igniter

    SPARK IGNITER The Spark Igniter is made of a ceramic composite material, see Figure 11 below. The Control System powers the Spark Igniter (120 VAC) from the pin 6, J5 connector on the Control Board to the External Spark Transformer. Spark Igniters are service parts, over time Spark Igniters will wear out and must be replaced as they will no longer generate enough spark to cause ignition.
  • Page 19: Gas Valve

    GAS VALVE The 24 Volt Gas Valve on the XB Boilers/XWH water heaters is AC voltage valve. The Control Board sends 24 VAC to the gas valve. See Figure 6 on Page 14. Gas Valve Voltage Test • Check for 24 VAC supplied to the 24 Volt Gas Valve at pin 2 of the J5 Connector on the Control Board. Using an "AC" volt meter connect one lead to pin 2 of the J5 Connector and the other lead to ground.
  • Page 20: Temperature Sensors

    TEMPERATURE SENSORS Temperature sensors are 3/4 inch male threaded immersion probes. Temperature probes have embedded temperature sensors (thermistors). The boiler/water heater’s control system monitors these sensors to determine water temperature at various points in the system. Thermistors are thermally sensitive resistors; as the surrounding temperature rises the resistance of the thermistor (measured in ohms) will decrease and as the surrounding temperature falls the resistance of the thermistor increases.
  • Page 21: Air Filter Assembly

    AIR FILTER ASSEMBLY FIGURE 13. AIR FILTER ASSEMBLY Air Filter Assembly is mounted on the top panel of the XB boilers/ XWH water heaters. See Figure 2 on Page 9 and Figure 3 on Page 10. The assembly includes a filter which slides inside the filter housing and filter brackets. The filter is made of of wire mesh screen and is meant to block dust particles and other debris from entering through the air intake into the boiler/water heater.
  • Page 22: Control Panel Assembly

    CONTROL PANEL ASSEMBLY Figure 14, Figure 15 on Page 23 and Figure 16 on Page 24 shows the Control Panels Assemblies for the XB boilers/XWH water heaters. The main components include Control Boards (Master & Local), Display Power Supply, 24 VAC Terminal Block, Step Down Transformer, Pump Relay, Fuse Block, Input Power 120 VAC Terminal Block, Low Water Cutoff Device and Interlock/Load Control Input (ILK/LCI) Relays.

It will also provide boiler/water heater status and error reporting. Multiple boiler/water heaters can be joined together to heat a system instead of a single, larger burner or boiler/water heater.
  • Page 39 COMMUNICATIONS AND DISPLAYS Two modes of communications are available to the R7910. The R7910 has two RS485 communication ports for ModBus that allows for interfacing to one or all R7910s of a system and presents them individually to the user. The S7999D System Operator interface is a color touchscreen display used for configuration and monitoring of the R7910A.

  • Page 41: General Operational Sequence

    Safety Shutdown: If the lockout interlocks open or a sensor designated as a safety limit are read as defective, Control System will lockout and the blower motor will be de-energized. If these open during the firing period, all fuel valves will be de-energized, the system will complete postpurge, and will lockout indicated by an alarm.
  • Page 42: Lead Lag

    Domestic Hot Water Start-up sequence DHW-request (system in standby): Heat request detected (Tank Sensor below Setpoint). The pump is switched on. After a system Safe Start Check, the Blower (fan) is switched on after a dynamic ILK switch test (if enabled). After the ILK switch is closed and the purge rate proving fan RPM is achieved (or High Fire Switch is closed) - prepurge time is started.
  • Page 43 The LL master may be aware of slave Burner Control’s minimum firing rate and use this information for some of its algorithms, but when apportioning rate it may also assign rates that are less than this. In fact, the add-stage and drop-stage algorithms may assume this and be defined in terms of theoretical rates that are possibly lower than the actual minimum rate of the Burner Control.
