Part 1 - General Information 1.1 – Special Instructions to Owner This manual supplies information for the installation, operation and servicing of the appliance. It is strongly recommended that this manual be reviewed completely before proceeding with an installation. NOTE: RETAIN THIS MANUAL FOR FUTURE REFERENCE WARNING IMPROPER INSTALLATION, ADJUSTMENT, ALTERATION, SERVICE OR MAINTENANCE can cause injury or property damage.
1.2 – Product Overview DynaFLO is a prefabricated product mounted on a skid that provides controlled heat exchange between a boiler loop and a DHW (domestic hot water) loop. Heat is extracted from the boiler loop and through a very compact and efficient stainless steel brazed plate heat exchanger is transferred to the cold domestic water supply.
1.4 – Sequence of Operation condensation of any exterior part of the appliance including pipes. Power is supplied as per Section 4.2 The appliance is filled with water (or a water-glycol Part 2 – Installation mixture) in all pipes and the heat exchanger. The power switch is placed in the “ON”...
caused by lack of cleaning and maintenance of the heat solution flow rate should be a minimum of 1.5 exchanger. This appliance is equipped with victaulics on all times the normal flow rate, or as per the table connection points to the heat exchanger for easy removal below, preferably in a back-flush mode.
This appliance uses two transformers to supply a low DC voltage circuit for energizing the control as well as a low AC voltage to energize the actuator. The voltage on the secondary side of the DC transformer should be 24 VDC when measured with a voltmeter.
Depending on the type of load and circuit that O0 and/or O1 are intended to switch ON and OFF, power up to either 30VDC MAX. or 250VAC MAX. needs to be provided to terminal 15 as shown in the next figure while conforming to electrical specifications in the above table.
Part 5 – Control output could be used with a flashing lamp. More details about digital alarm outputs are explained in 5.2.2 and 5.2.3. 5.1 – Overview The Controller has a Modbus (RS-485) port for communications. Port 2 (shown in the image below) allows communication with a Modbus Master such as a BMS.

Finalizing the project Once all the modules have been set up, select Add Site from the Design Menu; the PLC window NOTE opens. In the left-hand pane, for “PLC Name” enter: The controller name must be identical to the name DynaFLO PLC assigned in the controller’s ladder application as Select the module parameters that you have...
5.2.3.4 – <PID Configuration and IntelliFLO> Click OK, the project is now added and displayed in the DataXport Design window. Running the project Select “Run Project” from the “Actions” menu, The <Local PID ON/OFF> switch turns the built-in PID loop (Save and name your project) DataXport begins in DynaFLO’s controller ON and OFF.
Part 6 – Components 6.1 – Electro-Hydraulic Actuator 6.1.1 – Operation The Electro Hydraulic Actuator mounted on DynaFLO requires a 24 VAC supply and a 4 to 20mA control signal to proportionally control the actuator position. The actuators mounted on DynaFLO have a 3/4-inch (20 mm) stroke. The actuator communicates with the control through a 4 to 20 mA control signal.
Such conditions are not detectable unless the valve and its WARNING components are physically removed, and inspected. Do not The valve lever MUST be operated AT LEAST ONCE A attempt to conduct this inspection on your own. Contact YEAR to ensure that the water-ways are clear. Certain your plumbing contractor for a re-inspection to assure naturally occurring mineral deposits may adhere to the continuing safety.

NOTE Fill THE SYSTEM WITH WATER BEFORE STARTING THE APPLIANCE TO AVOID DAMAGING THE CIRCULATOR PUMP. WARNING NEVER OPERATE THE CIRCULATOR DRY AS PERMANENT DAMAGE MAY OCCUR. NEVER SHUT OFF THE DISCHARGE OR RESTRICT SUCTION FLOW WIHILE THE CIRCULATOR IS OPERATING. The speed of these pumps can be adjusted with a 3-speed rotary switch.
6.4.2 – Troubleshooting SYMPTOM POSSIBLE CAUSE ANALYSIS Check the power supply. Power supply interrupted Attach external power control if necessary. Pump stopped, no Repair short-circuited wire. Repair loose contact. power Fuse tripped or circuit Check for the properly rated fuse. breaker opened ...
Appendix A – Special Considerations for low volume boilers dedicated only to a DHW load The diagram below demonstrates a situations where there are no loads other than a DHW load to take the heat coming from the boiler (such as space heating or etc.). In such cases if the DHW load on DynaFLO is suddenly reduced, the actuator starts closing down and bypassing the heat exchanger.
