5.2.2 Fan/Blower
Operating power is provided by means of a separate 120 VAC connector at the
upper right side of the fan (white/black/green). Control of the fan is provided via a
four lead connector at the bottom of the fan.
5.2.3 Thermostat Connections
The boiler controller is designed to heat a single space heating load. The load can
consist of a single zone or several zones. In either case the 'Call for Heat' must be
from a device providing a DRY CONTACT and connected to X4.6 and X4.7. The use
of power robbing thermostats directly will cause the boiler to operate erratically. If a
power robbing thermostat is to be used it will have to be isolated through a relay.
5.2.4 Water Pressure Sensor
The water pressure is displayed in the main display when the pressure is low.
For example a system water pressure of 4.6psi would be displayed as 4.6P. If the
pressure is too low the controller will flash an error message in the main display
by toggling between the actual pressure and LO. Simply increase the system
pressure to correct this error.
TO TEST THE OPERATION OF THE PRESSURE SENSOR
Turn off the boiler at the controller by pressing the

system pressure will be displayed.
2. Isolate the space heating circuit and reduce the water pressure. The
displayed water pressure should drop as the system water is being removed
(expansion tank isolated). If the pressure is remaining steady then the
pressure sensor may be block or faulty. If it remains "fixed", drain boiler and
replace sensor, or dislodge any blocking debris from sensor inlet channel and
reinsert.
If the pressure sensor is OK then simply refill the boiler and open the closed

2. Isolate and drain the boiler.
3. Remove the Vent Stack.
4. Disconnect the electrical connection to the sensor.
5. Carefully remove the clip at the base of the sensor.
6. Twist the sensor as you are pulling to remove from the socket. There may
be some water leakage at this point. Ensure the water does not spill into the
controller.
7. Push the new sensor into the socket while twisting slightly. Careful not to
damage the O-ring.
Reinstall the clip at the base of the sensor to ensure the sensor does not
