Installation & Operation Manual
Zone Valve Control 306V
Introduction
The Zone Valve Control 306V connects up to six thermostats and operates zone valves to provide heating to a zoned
hydronic heating system. The 306V operates a system pump whenever a zone valve opens. Zone 1 can operate either
a zone valve or a circulator to provide heat to an indirect domestic hot water tank with optional priority over zones
2 through 6. The 306V includes optional exercising to prevent circulator seizure when not in use, and optional post
purge operation of the domestic hot water tank to maximize energy savings. The 306V provides a RoomResponse
signal to modulating-condensing boilers to optimize comfort while improving boiler efficiency.

    • 1 Installation and Operation Manual 306V_D • 2 Spare fuses (located in cover) Location • Keep the control dry. Avoid potential leakage onto the control. • Maintain relative humidity less than 90% in a non-condensing environment. • Avoid exposure to extreme temperatures beyond 32-122°F (0-50°C). • Install away from equipment, appliances, or other sources of electrical interference. • Install to allow easy access for wiring, viewing, and adjusting the display screen. • Install approximately 5 feet (1.5 m) off the finished floor. • Locate the control near pumps and/or zone valves if possible. • Provide a solid backing which the enclosure can be mounted to. Example: plywood or wall studs. • Use the conduit knockouts provided on the upper, lower, and back of the enclosure for wiring. Installing the Enclosure To prevent the risk of personal injury and/or death, make sure power is not applied to the control until it is fully installed and ready for final testing. All work must be done with power to the circuit being worked on turned off. Please be aware local codes may require this control to be installed or connected by an electrician. © 2019 tekmar 306V _ D - 10/19 3 of 12...
