Page 5: Record Of Installation
SCOPE This manual covers the Energy Kinetics System 2000 Resolute Boiler. The boiler is designed and equipped and has been tested to generate hot water in a low pressure closed loop system. The boiler is a major component of a closed loop system that can be used as a heat source for hydronic, radiant, domestic hot water, spa, and/or pool heating systems. -
Page 6: System 2000 Boiler - Principle Of Operation
This operation and maintenance information has been prepared so that you may better understand and use your Energy Kinetics Resolute Boiler and Heating System. -
Page 7: Receiving And Unpacking
6. MONITOR RETURN TEMPERATURE: The Manager continually senses the return temperature and will turn off the zone outputs if the return temperature drops below 120 F (130 F if Option Switch #1 is ON). With the zone outputs closed, the boiler water will quickly reheat and once the return temperature reaches 140 F (150 F if Option Switch #1 is ON), then the Manager will reopen the zone valves. -
Page 8: Smart Vent System
The Smart Vent with Dilution Air System is a complete vent system that has been specifically designed for use with Energy Kinetics’ Resolute boiler. It uses a standard EK1 forced draft inducer fan and requires outside air for combustion air. Each part of this system works together and must be installed properly to work correctly. -
Page 9: Fuel Systems
Resolute boilers must be equipped with a fuel filter and a flexible fuel line. Call Energy Kinetics to obtain optional UL Listed fuel filter and optional UL Listed flexible fuel line. The flexible fuel line allows the door to open without disconnecting the fuel supply. -
Page 10: General Assembly
GENERAL ASSEMBLY Assembly of various packaged units is illustrated throughout this manual. The use of non-Energy Kinetics supplied pump, controls and accessories should follow good practices. The diagrams and locations presented in the manual are recommended. -
Page 11: Piping
Supply and return connections are 1”NPT on the Resolute. Call Energy Kinetics to obtain piping and wiring instructions for alternate applications, such as hydronic heating, radiant heating, domestic hot water, swimming pool heating, multiple boilers, injection loops, etc. -
Page 12: Zone Control
ZONE CONTROL BY VALVE: The SYSTEM 2000 Boiler is designed to provide multi-zone control of the heating system and optionally can supply domestic hot water. Energy Kinetics recommends and supplies two wire, full port, 24-volt zone valves for control of each heating zone. A system with a single heating zone still requires a zone valve to provide control for preheat of unit and to maintain minimum temperature during operation. -
Page 13: Winterizing
Propylene Glycol in water will provide the following freeze protection: 30% down to +8F, 40% to -8F, 50% to -27F. Energy Kinetics recommends using 30% anti-freeze to obtain the best boiler performance. Use over 30% anti-freeze only if lower temperature freeze protection is mandatory. -
Page 14: Electrical Connection - Line Voltage
Set thermostat heat anticipators to 0.1 amps or Hydronic option. Call Energy Kinetics to request alternate low voltage wiring diagrams to handle special situations such as air handler wiring, heat pump wiring, isolation relays for thermostats, and isolation relays for heat motor style zone valves or circulators, etc. -
Page 15: Five Zone Display Manager
Five Zone Display Manager The Display Manager is an Energy Manager that is equipped with an LCD display, and four pushbutton keys. With the exception of the Fuel Type (oil/gas) and Venting (chimney/inducer) options, all setup options are selected through option screens via the display and keys. The Fuel Type and Venting options can be viewed, but not set, in the option screens. -

BOILER OPERATION AND SAFETY CHECKS Check for proper boiler operation and proper safety operation. Correct any deficiency. DANGER: Verify proper operation of high limit aquastat. a. Remove all heat and hot water calls (No input lights on left side of manager). b. - Page 20 Energy Manager Operation WARNING: Do Not Jump! If you apply 24VAC to any Energy sensor lead with the sensor connected to the Manager, you will burn out both the sensor and the Manager in less than a second. NOTE: The Manager cannot lockout the primary control on the burner.
- Page 21 Energy Manager Check Troubleshooting The burner will not run unless there is a call for heat (thermostat call) or a call for domestic hot water (tank aquastat). Note: Do NOT Jumper Connections or Apply Voltage to Test the Manager. Follow these simple steps: Look at the Manager See what it is telling you is supposed to be happening.

Page 23: Additional Tests
Additional Manager Tests Perform the following tests ONLY if you have any of the following: Case 1) Zones heating intermittently Case 2) E140 or E150 displayed WITHOUT a burner lockout Case 3) E100 or E190 displayed If you have a burner lockout, troubleshoot as any conventional burner lockout. Case 1: Zones heating intermittently Step 1: Have all connected thermostats including hot water aquastat call continuously for at least 10 minutes. -
Page 24: Display Manager Return Sensor Testing
Display Manager Return Sensor (Thermistor) Testing The temperature sensor in the return line allows better boiler control, and virtually eliminates condensation caused by cold returns. The temperature sensor is a thermistor sealed with epoxy inside a stainless steel well. The thermistor communicates continuously with the Manager thousands of times a minute. -
