This Electro-Boiler is factory equipped with WarmFlo smart controller. WarmFlo
automatically regulates outlet water temperature based upon outside temperature and pre-
setup parameters (commonly called "outdoor reset").
Primary application is any hydronic water heating system where reduced flow or
radiation can cause overheat conditions (example, zones). However, if it is a mixture of
large and small zones, the sudden capacity and flow changes may cause some internal
timing/overtemp conditions. With the mixture of zones the zone controller ZTS-* option
is highly recommended (see page 2).
This series is equipped for load management interrupt and can apply to standard
baseboard radiation, dual heat combinations, under floor radiant, wood boiler
supplement, etc.
Note: If this installation does not include dual heat standby boiler, the front panel
switch must always be in the "normal" position.
Attached BL001 lists various accessory or option items which are not part of basic
Electro-Boiler. Also page 3 has additional information on slab stat. Page 2 gives
information on a zone control update which stages elements based upon zone capacity.

2. Prevents over control or false staging up and down when the temperature sensors are attempting to regulate – since Electro Industries’ zone controller also has staging “smarts”, the addition of the zone controller will provide smoother boiler temperature control. The zone board has a dial switch for each zone and the installer selects one of four zone capacity sizes. -

WARNING: The end switches from the zone valves must be an isolated contact with no voltage present on these wires or screw terminals. This is very important to make sure there isn’t any interference or feedback between the transformer operating the zone valve system and the transformer within this Electro-Boiler product. -

As it warms up outside the supply temperature is decreased downward from that point. In the case of Electro Industries’ WarmFlo, we begin at a minimum or comfort level supply temperature and ramp upward to the higher temperature as it gets colder outside.

In this setup the circulator pump continues during load control interrupt (or optional remote standby switch). There is a provision within the controller board (inside) to allow the circulator pump to not operate during load control interrupt.

7. Use general heating system logic information and basic understanding of the terminal block wiring functions measure various voltage points to determine proper operation. 8. Acquiring the PC software or Palm with serial port hookup cable is a positive tool for understanding and troubleshooting the WarmFlo controller. - Page 17 The time between stage turn on depends upon where the controller logic memory was after the last thermostat call or following a power up reset condition. The longest time between staging is from the power up condition because the logic does not have a history of previous thermostat calls. Once the history of several thermostat calls has been established within memory, it automatically returns to the last active stages, with an approximate 5 seconds between stage turn on.
