The Variable Speed - Setpoint "00" Cartridge Circulator (00-VS) is a microprocessor-based pump designed to regulate the tempera-
ture to a system through variable speed injection mixing. The 00-VS regulates the temperature to provide a fixed setpoint or a fixed
temperature difference (∆T) for heating or cooling applications. For fixed setpoint operation, a boiler return sensor can be connected
to protect the boiler against flue gas condensation.
In order to properly accomplish this mixing method, the following piping details should be considered.
Applications
The following are typical applications the 00-VS supports. The 00-VS includes a five DIP package with DIP siwtches 1, 3 and 5 used
to configure the control for a given application. These DIP switch configurations are indicated to the right of the application drawing.
DIP switch 2 is used to select the appropriate temperature range for the desired setpoint target. DIP switch 4 is used to select the
controls variable speed output response. It is recommended that a normal response (DIP 4 = Off) is used. This will aid in reducing
potential thermal expansion issues in a system. If it is desired for the control to achieve the setpoint or ∆T target quicker, a more
aggressive variable speed output response can be selected by setting DIP switch 4 to On.
00-VS-1
Supply
Sensor
(S1 or S2)
The 00-VS adjusts the variable speed output to the P1 pump to maintain a setpoint temperature at the supply sensor whenever
a heat demand is present. While the control is operating to maintain the setpoint temperature, the variable speed output is also
adjusted to ensure the boiler inlet temperature is above the boiler inlet minimum setpoint.
00-VS-2
The 00-VS adjusts the variable speed output to the P1 pump to maintain at least a setpoint temperature at the boiler sensor (S3)
whenever a heat demand is present. The control adjusts the variable speed output towards zero speed as long as the temperature
is above the setpoint.
00-VS-3
The 00-VS adjusts the variable speed output to the P1 pump to maintain at least a setpoint temperature at the boiler sensor
(S3) whenever a heat demand is present. The control adjusts the variable speed output towards full speed as long as the
temperature is above the setpoint. Note: This application illustrates variable flow conditions through the boiler. This con-
trol configuration should only be used with a heat source which is not flow sensitive, such as a high mass cast iron boiler.
00-VS-4
Duct
Sensor
(S1 or S2)
The 00-VS adjusts the variable speed output to the fancoil pump P1 to maintain a setpoint discharge air temperature at the duct
sensor whenever a heat demand is present. While the control is operating to maintain the setpoint temperature, the variable speed
output is adjusted to ensure the boiler inlet temperature is above the boiler inlet minimum setpoint.

  • Page 1 Applications The following are typical applications the 00-VS supports. The 00-VS includes a five DIP package with DIP siwtches 1, 3 and 5 used to configure the control for a given application. These DIP switch configurations are indicated to the right of the application drawing.
  • Page 2 Variable Speed Injection Mixing Variable Speed Injection Mixing uses a pump as a mixing device instead of a 2-way, 3-way or 4-way valve. The 00-VS injects hot water from the boiler loop into the cooler system loop. The speed of the pump is modulated in order to inject different rates of hot water into the cooler system return water.

    6) The injection pump size and model of Taco 00 pump to install can be looked up in figure 3. Do not oversize the injection system. If the injection system is not able to provide enough heat, the boiler’s aquastat may be increased.
  • Page 4: Output Characteristic

    When either system sensor (S1) or system sensor (S2) is installed for setpoint operation, and the boiler return sensor (S3) is installed on the return side of the boiler, the 00-VS can protect the boiler against flue gas condensation. When this sensor is installed, the 00- VS monitors the boiler return temperature.
  • Page 5 Exercising During long periods of no operation, the 00-VS is designed to exercise for 10 seconds every 3 days of no operation in order to prevent precipitate build-up in the pump. The % OUT LED turns on during the exercising function.

    If you suspect a wiring fault, return to the wiring section on this brochure and carefully check all external wiring and wiring connections. For your safety and protection of permanent damage to the microprocessor, the 00-VS includes a 2.5 A 250 V (ac) field replacable fuse. Multi-Status LEDs...

    4. Reverse directions to install the new circuit board. 1. The addition of petroleum based fluids or certain chemical additives to systems utilizing CAUTION: TACO equipment voids the warranty. 2. Use supply wires suitable for 90°C. CAUTION: Installations at higher elevations over 5000 feet must have higher fill pressure of 20 psi minimum to prevent pump cavitation and flashing.
