Lochinvar 81 - 286 Boiler User Manual


 
High limit operations
The Knight boiler is equipped with adjustable automatic reset
and manual reset high limits. The automatic reset high limit
has a maximum set point of 200°F and the manual reset high
limit has a maximum set point of 210°F.
When the outlet temperature exceeds 200°F, the automatic
high limit action occurs. The boiler shuts down until the outlet
water temperature cools below 190°F, and a 60 second timer
has expired. If the outlet temperature continues to increase, the
manual reset high limit action will occur at 210°F.
High limit test procedure
Monitor external limits
Connections are provided on the connection board for
external limits such as flow switch, low water cutoff, gas
pressure switches, and a louver proving switch. The SMART
SYSTEM will shut off the burner and inhibit relighting
whenever any of these external limits open.
Run-time and alarm outputs
The boiler provides dry contacts for indicating when the
boiler is running, and when it is unable to operate.
Run-time and cycle counting
The control uses two timers to monitor the total hours of
burner operation. One timer monitors the time the boiler is
firing in the Space Heating Mode. The other timer monitors
the time the boiler is firing in the DHW Mode.
The control uses two (2) ignition counters to monitor the
amount of boiler cycles. The first counter counts all ignitions
of the control. The second counter counts only ignition
attempts that have failed.
Service reminder
The control can be programmed for service reminder
notification. This notification will become active when either
a set time frame has expired, or a set amount of running
hours or cycles has expired (all adjustable by the installer).
The display will show a Maintenance Required screen. The
service reminder notification can be reset or disabled by the
installer.
The time dependent feature has been disabled by the
manufacturer. To enable this feature change parameter K1 to
the desired time range, reference the Knight Service Manual
for details regarding parameters.
Error logging
The control will hold in memory the last 10 lockouts as
well as the last 10 blockings. The date and time of the
occurrence will be recorded as well. Only the 10 most current
occurrences of each will be held in memory.
Boiler temperature regulation
Operating temperature (target)
The SMART SYSTEM control module senses water
temperature and regulates boiler firing and firing rate to
achieve a target temperature. The target temperature can be
set between 32°F and 190°F.
Target temperature is fixed when the outdoor sensor
is not installed.
Target temperature is calculated as described below
under “Outdoor Reset Operation” and “Target
Temperature Boost” when the outdoor sensor is
connected.
11 Operating information (continued)
1. Turn ON the main power to the boiler by placing the
ON/OFF switch in the ON position.
2. If boiler status reads [SHUTDOWN] place the boiler into
the active position by pressing the RIGHT SELECT [ON]
key.
3. Locate the pinhole (SERVICE button) below the RESET
button on the display board. Insert a thin wire (such as a
paper clip) into the hole and press the button once, hold
for five (5) seconds to place the boiler into Service Mode.
In Service Mode the boiler will fire at ignition speed and
will then modulate up to full fire.
4. From the Status Screen, press the NAVIGATION dial to
access the Set Points Screen.
5. Press the LEFT SELECT [LIMITS] key.
6. Select the manual reset high limit (MRHL) by pressing the
NAVIGATION dial.
7. Decrease the set point of the MRHL below the outlet
temperature by turning the NAVIGATION dial
counterclockwise.
8. Press the RIGHT SELECT [SAVE] key.
9. Press the RIGHT SELECT [HOME] key.
10. The new parameters will upload to the control and the
MRHL will function causing boiler shutdown and
[LOCKOUT] to be displayed.
11. Press the RESET button to clear the lockout.
12. Repeat Steps 4, 5 and 6.
13. Set the MRHL to the appropriate set point by turning the
NAVIGATION dial clockwise.
14. Repeat Steps 8 and 9.
Low water cutoff protection
1. The SMART SYSTEM control module uses temperature
sensing of both supply and return areas of the heat
exchanger. If the flow rate is too low or the outlet
temperature too high, the control module modulates and
shuts the boiler down. This ensures boiler shutdown in the
event of low water or low flow conditions.
2. Some codes and jurisdiction may accept these integral
features of the control in lieu of requiring an additional
limit control or low water cutoff. Consult local jurisdiction
to determine. A low water cutoff is available from the
factory (WTR20009).
Please note that the brackets ([]) denote
screen status.
