NOTE
The events shown in this flow chart
are in sequential order. The EMC
5000 is a multi-task control that
performs some functions
simultaneously. Only key events are
shown in order to provide a general
understanding of how the control
operates. Event timings can vary
depending on actual conditions.
SERVICE NOTE
VF boilers utilize two flame sensors.
One is positioned closer to the buner
than the second to enable flame
detection during low and high fire
conditions.
The wiring from the two flame
sensors is joined and connects to a
single connection point on the MCB
circuit board.
When the “Flame Stg1” error
message is displayed remove,
inspect, and clean both flame
sensors.
YES
NO
SERVICE NOTE:
In standby and running modes the system constantly monitors the signals and the internal

Any detected fault will halt the heating sequence and shift the system to the service mode
where the detected fault will be displayed.
