Power Quality And Electrical Protection; Zone Valve And Zone Pump Connections; Thermostat / Sensor Wiring - IBC DC Series Installation And Operating Instructions Manual

DC SERIES BOILERS / WATER HEATERS DC 15-95, DC 15-96, DC 20-125, DC 33-160

1.9.2 Power Quality and Electrical Protection

In areas of unreliable power, appropriate surge protectors and or power
conditioning equipment should be installed to protect the boiler / water heater.

1.9.3 Zone Valve and Zone Pump Connections

Zoning can be accomplished with either zone pumps or zone valves. In either
case the controls and relays that may be required to accomplish this will need to
be installed externally.
Zone Valve end switches can be wired to together in parallel and connected to
a fan center relay. See Figure 36 and 37. Do not apply power to the X4 terminal
strip. Alternately the zone valves and thermostats can be connected to a zoning
panel control system available from your local heating wholesaler.
Zone Pumps can be connected to the boiler / water heater with a zone pump
control available from your local heating wholesaler.

1.9.4 Thermostat / Sensor Wiring

A Thermostat from a single zone heating system can be connected directly to the
controller's terminals X4.6 and X4.7. Do not apply power to the X4 terminal strip.
The Outdoor Sensor is not required for the boiler / water heater to operate. If
the outdoor sensor is not connected, the boiler / water heater will operate at
the designated maximum space heating water temperature. If outdoor reset
functionality and the Summer Shut Down feature is required then the Outdoor
Sensor must be connected to X4.8 and X4.9. The Outdoor Sensor is a 12K ohm
thermistor type sensor. The sensor should be installed on the exterior of the
building on the north side. The sensor should be installed so that it is not effected
by any heat sources from the building such as a dryer or exhaust fan outlet, relief
air or combustion air grill above a window or door, or mounted directly under a
deck or soffit overhang.
DHW Aquastat or 10KΩ sensor can be connected to the controller's terminals
X4.9 and X4.10. Do not apply power to the X4 terminal strip.
