    Figure 3: Advantus Ignition Cycle NOTE: If a flame signal is detected at the end of the pre-purge period, an error will occur. If at the end of the safety period (4 sec) no flame is detected, the control will go to post-purge to remove the unburned gas. After this, a re-ignition attempt is started following the same cycle.
  • Page 10: Codes

    Installation and service must be performed by Camus Hydronics Limited qualified factory trained service technicians. WARNING Should overheating occur or the gas supply fails to shut off, DO NOT turn off or disconnect the electrical supply to the pump. Shut off the gas supply at a location external to the appliance.
  • Page 11: Boiler Room Operating Condition

     If provided, test for spillage at the draft control device relief opening after 5 minutes of main burner operation. Use a co ld mirror, the flame of a match, or candle or smoke from a cigarette.  After it has been determined that each appliance remaining connected to the common venting system properly vents when tested as outlined above, return doors, windows, exhaust fans, fireplace dampers and any other gas-burning appliance to their previous condition of use.

    Figure 10: AV800 – 4000: 1:1 Air/Gas Ratio Control Valve OPERATION OF NEGATIVE PRESSURE AND DIFFERENTIAL PRESSURE VALVES  The Advantus Models 500 & 600 both operate on the principle of negative pressure. As the fan varies in speed it generates a varying negative pressure at the fan suction which draws in a corresponding amount of gas.
  • Page 25: Regulated Gas Supply Pressures For Advantus Tm Boilers & Water Heaters

     Ensure inlet pressure is within specified range. Minimum and maximum gas supply pressures are specified in Table 7.  If gas pressure is out of range, contact the gas utility, gas supplier, qualified installer or service agency to determine necessary steps to provide proper gas pressure to the control.

    3.11 BURNER Figure 16: Burner Metal Fiber This appliance uses a single cylindrical burner installed vertically into the cavity located in the center of the heat exchanger. The burner consists of a round mounting flange welded to a mixing tube. The top side of the mixing tube provides the transition which mounts the discharge from the combustion air fan into the burner.
  • Page 29: Part 4 Water Connection

    PART 4 WATER CONNECTION  Check all applicable local heating, plumbing and building safety codes before proceeding.  If the appliance is installed above radiation level, it must be provided with a low water cut-off device at the time of appliance installation (available from factory).
  • Page 30: Warning Regarding Chilled Water And Heating Coil Systems

    For outdoor installations in colder climates a snow screen should be installed to prevent snow and ice accumulation on and around the appliance. Regular inspections should be made to ensure that air intake and vent are free of snow and ice. Always consider th e use of a shelter such as a garden shed in lieu of direct exposure of the appliance to the elements.
  • Page 31: Instantaneous Water Heater

    INSTANTANEOUS WATER HEATER An instantaneous water heater is designed to deliver hot water without the use of a storage tank. It is suitable for applicat ions with variable load such as restaurants, condominiums, apartments and motels and typically used in conjunction with tempering valves to achieve temperature control.
  • Page 32: Low Water Cutoff (If Equipped)

    4.10 LOW WATER CUTOFF (If Equipped) If this boiler is installed above radiation level, a low water cut-off device must be installed at the time of boiler installation. Some local codes require the installation of a low water cut-off on all systems. Electronic low water cut-offs are available as a factory supplied option on all models.
  • Page 33: Circulating Pump Operation Of Heat Exchanger

    4.12.1 CIRCULATING PUMP OPERATION OF HEAT EXCHANGER MOST IMPORTANT This appliance is designed for continuous pump operation when the burner is firing. The pump control option allows the appliance circulating pump to be cycled “ON” prior to the burner firing and cycled “OFF” sometime after the set point is satisfied. The operation of the circulating pump is controlled by the Advantus temperature control (SOLA).

    VARIABLE FREQUENCY DRIVE (AV800-4000) This appliance uses a VFD which provides power to the combustion fan. The fan motor operates on 230VAC 3 phase power. This three phase voltage is generated by the VFD and supplied directly to the fan motor. The VFD receives a 4-20mA modulating signal from the SOLA to vary the frequency of the voltage supplied to the fan motor.
  • Page 36: High Limit

    HIGH LIMIT A high limit aquastat control is located at the back of the appliance and the control bulb is installed in a dry well in the heat exchanger header outlet. The setting of this control limits maximum discharge water temperature. A manual reset high limit will have a red reset button which must be pushed whenever water temperature has exceeded the set point of the manual reset limit.

  • Page 70: Condensation Treatment

    10.4 CONDENSATION TREATMENT This high efficiency appliance may operate as a condensing appliance for extended periods of time based on return water temperatures. Condensate occurs when the products of combustion are cooled below their dew point in the heat transfer proces s. The liquid condensate formed from this high efficiency heat transfer process is mildly acidic.
  • Page 71: Burner Cleaning Procedure

    NOTE When the combustion air fan is removed for any reason, the inlet to the burner must be covered to prevent further foreign obj ects from falling into the burner. Always look inside the burner to check for dents. Do not place a burner back into operation if the inner distribution screen has been dented during the service operation, call the factory for recommendations.
