4.
Check the full system operates correctly. If at any time the temperature difference between the
boiler return and flow is greater that 14
rectified immediately. Set pump speed to give 5-10
boiler when operating at maximum power output.
5.
The pump is operated from the boiler control. It should be connected to the pump terminals on the
boiler control board. The pump will run whenever the CALL indicator is illuminated (green) either
flashing or steady, and it will also continue to run if the boiler is hot, even after the demand has
ceased. It will turn off the pump when the boiler temperature falls below approximately 75
will also turn the pump back on if the water temperature rises above 75
be incorporated in systems where the heating load can shut down, i.e. when valves or thermostatic
radiator valves are fitted. See note on the bypass (page 5).
6.
The
ALARM indicator flashing (red) will only illuminate if there is a problem. If there is a water
problem the HEAT and the CALL (green) indicators will turn off. The boiler will remain in this
tripped state until the fault is corrected and the boiler is re-set.
7.
An ALARM indicator flashing (red) together with the CALL indicator (red) indicates an over
temperature problem.
