Installation & Service Manual
Initial Start-up
Follow the Lighting Instructions on the label applied to the
appliance.
A. On boilers with the system pump delay option, the
operating temperature control will energize the
pump relay which energizes the pump on a call for
heat. The operating temperature control will de-
energize the pump relay approximately 30 seconds
after the call for heat ends. If either the inlet sensor
or the optional multi-purpose temperature sensor
reads below 40°F, the pump relay will turn ON.
When the temperature rises above 50°F the pump
relay will turn OFF.
On boilers, the pump will operate whenever the “W”
terminal is energized.
B. Location - The appliance should be located within a
room having a temperature safely above freezing
[32°F(0°C)].
