System Start-up
Asphyxiation Hazard.
If the throttle is very far out of adjustment on the "rich" (counter-clockwise) side, the boiler burner may be
running at 0% excess air or even with air deficiency. Operating the boiler in this condition may cause property
damage, personal injury or death.
At 0% excess air the CO
0%) and CO air free level will be extremely high (well over 1,000 PPM).
If the burner operates with air deficiency, the following phenomena may be observed:
% CO
will actually drop (% O
2
% CO
will actually increase (% O
2
If the boiler appears to operate with air deficiency, shut down the boiler and follow instructions in Paragraph U
"Correcting Throttle Screws Mis-Adjustment. Then, use a combustion analyzer to verify and adjust O
and CO air free to values shown in Table 9-2 for natural gas or Table 9-3 for LP gas.
V. Controls Start-up Check List
Check field wiring and control parameters per below Table 9-9 and Table 9-10. The control is factory
programmed with default parameters. Review parameters and adjust as necessary to conform to specific site
requirements. From Home Screen, select ADJUST to access below listed parameters. Login as needed to make
changes. For detailed login instructions, refer to Section 10 "Operation", Paragraph J. Parameter Adjustment.
