APPENDIX A - CONTROL MODULE

A.5 Operation

Module continuously monitors boiler water temperature and fires or shuts off burner based on this temperature data.

1.When “Call for Heat” occurs, control enables circulator and monitors boiler water temperature to determine whether thermostat can be satisfied without firing burners.

2.Control determines burner operation is required,

module proceeds to start burner (see state codes list) and heats water in boiler until setpoint temperature is achieved or thermostat is satisfied. .

3.Burner is de-activated, ignition module completes heat- ing cycle, returns to idle and waits for temperature to drop again.

4.Circulator is turned on throughout “Call for Heat.”

Pre-purge

 

System is purging before ignition trial; includes Pilot Valve circuit diagnostics.

6

Spark

 

System sparking. Flame is not present up to 13 seconds

7

Flame stabilization

 

Flame signal is being established. Variation in signal is allowed during this

 

state, flame must be stable at end of period

 

 

 

8

Running

 

System is running. Flame signal must be present.

9

Post-Purge

 

System is purging at end of call for heat

 

 

 

 

 

Retry Recycle Delay

 

Successful ignition was not detected, and delay is called before retry.

10

 

Flame signal was lost during state 7 or 8, and delay is called before retry (32

 

 

 

second delay)

 

13

Soft lock-out

 

Soft lockout duration is one hour, may override with manual reset.

14

Hard lock-out

 

Manual reset is required for hard lockout

15

Wait for limit to close

 

Possible thermostat call for heat; limit switch is open.

 

 

 

Flame signal sensed before trial for ignition. Appropriate alarm is sent.

 

 

 

 

OR

16

Flame out of sequence

 

Flame signal sensed out of sequence during post purge. Appropriate alarm is s

 

 

 

ent.

OR

 

 

 

Flame signal present when not expected. Appropriate alarm is sent.

 

Pilot valve diagnostics

 

Pilot valve circuitry diagnostics during pre-purge.

 

Current leakage detection

 

Self check performed at start up, again at beginning of heat cycle, and during

17

 

“Wait for Recovery “ State.

 

 

 

Wait for recovery

 

Self check performed at start up, again at beginning of heat cycle, and during

 

 

“Wait for Recovery “ State

 

 

 

 

 

 

Control has signaled damper/pressure switch

18

Wait for damper to open

 

to close, and is waiting for completion.

 

If damper/pressure switch does not close within 60 seconds, control goes to

 

 

 

 

 

 

State 20.

 

 

 

 

Damper is closed and control waits for damper to open.

19

Wait for damper to close

 

Checked at beginning of heat cycle before opening damper.

 

 

 

If damper does not open in 60 seconds, control goes to State 21.

20

Wait for damper to open

 

Damper has not opened (end swich not closed) at beginning of heat cycle.

(Failed close)

 

Alarm message is sent, control is NOT in lockout.

 

 

21

Wait for damper to close

 

Damper has not closed despite actuator de-energized.

(Failed open)

 

Alarm message is sent, control is NOT in lockout.
