PUMP DLY (Pump Delay): On pump mounted units, the heater mounted pump continues to run for the time selected after the heat demand in the system is satisfied. This setting also affects the 24VAC output on the “PMP” “PMP” terminals (see section 5.2). These terminals can power a contactor for a larger system pump. Bradford White recommends a minimum pump delay setting of 5 minutes. See section 6.3.6 for more information. Note: In modes other than mode 6, the pump will run continuously if the “HtD” and “ComD” terminals are jumpered and not connected to a zone valve or pump end switch, or other “contact closure” device to indicate when the heat demand in the system is satisfied. The pump will never run, and the heater will never fire, if the jumper is removed and the terminals left empty.
OUTDOOR RESET (Modes 4 and 5) Outdoor reset adjusts the target temperature based on the outdoor air temperature and reset ratio. The reset ratio is determined from the Boiler Start, Boiler Design, Outdoor Start and Outdoor Design settings.
HEAT DEMAND – For heat demand to exist, there must be continuity between the Com D (common demand) and Ht D (heat demand) terminals. The heater ships with a jumper between these terminals.
The control also evaluates the sensor(s) installed in the system. If the control is not in warm weather shutdown (WWSD), and the sensor(s) are below the target temperature, the “Dem” segment is turned on in the display. The control energizes the pump (on pump mounted heater) and energizes the
Boiler Start (BOIL START) The BOIL
START temperature is the theoretical heater supply temperature that the heating system requires when the outdoor air temperature equals the OUTDR START temperature setting.
EXAMPLE 1
DHW (Mode 3) Programming. For domestic hot water systems up to 175°F / 79°C, use Mode 3 as described below.
Step 1: Install the additional sensor into the
storage tank, wiring it to “SC2” and “SUPS” terminals on the field wiring panel (Figure 24).
Step 2: Press the three programming buttons to enter “ADJUST” mode (Figure 10). Press “Item” to select the programming item, and the arrow keys to adjust the setting. “TARGET TANK” is desired tank temperature. Recommended settings with a desired tank temperature of 125°F:
Example DHW Programming
Item | F° | C° |
MODE | 3 | 3 |
BOIL TARGET | 140°F | 60°C |
TARGET TANK | 125°F | 52°C |
DIFF TANK | 2°F | 1°C |
BOIL MASS | 1 | 1 |
DIFF | 2°F | 1°C |
DLY | 5:00 | 5:00 |
F° | F° | °C |
Step 4: See section 6.3.11 Limit Controls. Set both high limits 25°F / 14°C higher than “BOIL TARGET” to allow for temperature rise across heat exchanger. Manual high limits on water heaters have a maximum 200°F / 93°C setting. (If water must be at 175°F / 79°C or higher with a volume water heater model, use Mode 1. For volume water applications exceeding 200°F / 93°C, contact the factory.)
Fine tuning: For faster staging, increase “BOIL TARGET” setting. Larger “DIFF TANK” and “DIFF” settings will slow response to demand, but may save energy.
If unit short cycles, enter Advanced Programming mode (Section 6.3) and increase “BOILER MAX” setting to the “BOIL TARGET” setting or higher. Set “BOILER MIN” to 120°F / 49°C, and “STGMODE” to PID. See section 6.3.12 Advanced Programming Mode to enter Advanced Programming mode, or contact the factory for assistance.

Step 1: Install the additional sensor in the primary loop. This sensor should be installed as per Section 6.2.4 under Primary Secondary Piping in this manual, and wired to the “SC2” and “SUPS” terminals on the field wiring panel (Figure 24).
Step 2: Remove the
Note: The heater must have an indication of heat demand to fire. If a zone valve or pump end switch is not connected to the “HtD” and “ComD” terminals, the jumper must be left in place. However, the heater pump (if equipped) and any pump connected to a contactor wired to the
