Application – This Electro-Boiler is factory equipped with WarmFlo smart controller. WarmFlo
automatically regulates outlet water temperature based upon preset, front panel, temperature selection. This
model does not have an outdoor sensor and is not programmed for outlet temperature ramping (outdoor reset
concept). If your application is "outdoor reset", you should consider using model EB-MO series.
Primary application is any hydronic water heating system (high or low temperature systems) 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/over temp conditions.
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.
Accessories – Attached BL001 lists various accessory or option items which are not part of basic Electro-Boiler.
Note:
This product meets the requirements of the ASME Boiler and Pressure
Vessel Code.

    INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS 1. All installation work must be performed by trained, qualified contractors or technicians. Electro Industries, Inc., sponsors installation and service schools to assist the installer. Visit our web site at electromn.com for upcoming service schools. WARNING ALL ELECTRICAL WIRING MUST BE IN ACCORDANCE WITH NATIONAL ELECTRIC CODE AND LOCAL ELECTRIC CODES, ORDINANCES, AND REGULATIONS.

    MECHANICAL INSTALLATION CAUTION Electro Industries Inc. requires the use of dielectric isolation between the boiler vessel supply and return piping when the boiler is plumbed using copper or any other dissimilar metal. Damage to the vessel caused by galvanic corrosion voids Electro Industries’ warranty.
  • Page 7: Electrical Hookup

    Use drawing EH308 (with ES product) for hookup, note change in load control connection. Comment: If using an Electro Industries zone controller or zone valve type devices, the turn-on or operating thermostat control function will come from the zone controller W OUT.

    7. Zone Valve – the installer may elect to totally wire in the zone valves where paralleling the end switches activate the control board R and W. However, if using EB-5415 or other Electro Industries’ zone controller, wiring is substantially easier and the W OUT goes directly to W input (verify there is a common on all secondary or auxiliary units).
  • Page 9 6. Open "water supply valve" and open household water supply source. This may be at normal household pressure (4Ø to 6Ø PSI), the auto-fill value regulator keeps the hydronics loop at its proper low pressure. 7. Allow system to circulate, discharging through drain valve, for at least 1Ø minutes. 8.

    OPERATIONAL TIPS 1. Indicator lights – there is a set of four indicator lights on the front cover. Figure 1 is a reproduction of the front decal giving definition and information for using these indicator lights. 2. Boiler power LED indicates 24-volt is present on the control board and is continuous on. Off could mean no 240 power, open manual reset (vessel top), open fuse, or bad transformer.
