WM97+ -
gas fired water boiler
System piping
DHW as a zone — CIRCULATOR zoning
Internal P/S by-pass valve OPEN
WM97+70 or 110 only
DO NOT use this piping if the boiler is connected to a CWH
unit. The CWH unit requires priority and would prevent
priority operation of the system DHW unit.
The boiler internal primary/secondary by-pass valve MUST
be open to prevent excessive head caused by running the
boiler circulator and zone circulators in series.
See Figure 55.
1. OPEN the boiler internal primary/secondary by-pass valve.
2. Install a separate circulator for each zone. The boiler circulator can-
not be used for a zone. It must remain in the boiler, as installed at
the factory.
3. Install the DHW tank as a system zone. The DHW tank can be piped as
a zone ONLY if a DHW tank or CWH is NOT connected to the boiler.
4. Wire the DHW circulator to boiler Zone 1. Set the boiler circulator to
ON in the DHW Settings menu.
5. Priority option — By default, the WM97+ control turns off space heat-
ing to its Zone 2 and Zone 3 outputs during domestic water heating on
Zone 1. The MAX ON TIME setting can be adjusted to limit how long
this occurs. Set the MAX ON TIME to "0" to disable domestic priority.
6. Terminate the bottom connections as shown in the inset on Figure 55.
Supplementary expansion tank, if used
1. If using a supplementary closed-type expansion tank, connect the ex-
pansion tank and make-up water piping as shown in Figure 43, page 40.
2. DO NOT use a closed-type tank if connecting to a water heater that
is equipped with an automatic air vent.
Controlling the zones
1. The WM97+ control operates up to three zones (DHW plus two space
heating). Refer to Field wiring, beginning on page 62, for instructions
on wiring to circulators.
2. For more than three zones, use a Weil-McLain WMCR zone controller.
See suggested wiring in this manual.
