Copper-fin II/IIE Boiler, Water Heater and Pool Service Manual

1 Service

General Operation

How the appliance operates

The Copper-fin uses a finned copper tube heat exchanger to transfer heat from the flue products to the water. An electronic control module monitors various inputs to initiate a call for heat. The blower provides both primary and secondary air to the burner and forces the flue products out of the combustion chamber and into the vent system. The control module regulates the blower speed (on B9 and M9 models) to control the firing rate of the appliance. The modulating gas valve monitors the amount of combustion air being pulled into the blower and regulates the amount of gas supplied, which then mixes with the combustion air and is supplied to the burner.

Access modes

User

The user can adjust space heating set point using the UP and DOWN buttons at any time during normal operation. By entering the USER code (0704), the user can also change temperature units, time and date, and night setback settings. In user mode, the following parameters can be viewed but not changed: Heater outlet water temperature in DHW mode; heater model number; software version; total operating hours, and total cycles.

Installer

How the control module operates

The Copper-fin control module receives input from appliance sensors. The control module activates and controls the blower and gas valves to regulate heat input and switches heater, DHW and system pumps on and off as needed. The user/installer programs the module to meet system needs by adjusting control parameters. These parameters set operating temperatures and heater operating modes. Appliance operation can be based on heater outlet water temperature, heater return water temperature, system supply temperature, system return temperature or tank temperature, depending on the parameter setting.

Sequence of operation

Table 1A shows control module normal sequences of operation for space heating and DHW operation. The combined operation sequence is for a typical application, programmed to provide DHW priority.

Most parameters are available only to the installer, accessible only by entering the installer access code (5309).

Saving parameters

To save parameters and exit programming:

Press the ENTER/RESET button, then the MENU/EXIT button 3 times.

To keep parameter settings only for a current operating cycle:

Press the MENU/EXIT button 3 times after making all desired parameter changes.

To enter a parameter and continue programming:

Press the MENU/EXIT button 1 time to return to the parameter listings; press again to return to the menu listings. Remember to press the ENTER/RESET button when finished programming in order to save the changes made.
