Installation & Operation Manual
7 Operating information
The control monitors the temperature difference between the inlet and the outlet sensor. If this difference exceeds the first limit the control will turn off stages. If the temperature difference exceeds a second limit the control will shut the unit down. The unit will restart automatically once the temperature difference has dropped 10°F (6°C) and the minimum off time has expired.
RISE LIMITING
Outlet Temperature | Firing Rate |
Up to 180°F (82°C) | Full Fire |
180°F (82°C) to 185°F (85°C) | Low Fire |
Above 185°F (85°C) | Off |
Freeze protection
DO NOT install the appliance in a room likely to freeze.
The following integral feature of the SMART SYSTEM control module provides some protection for the appliance only
•The SMART SYSTEM control module provides
•Below 45°F (7.2°C), the appliance and system pumps operate constantly.
•Below 37°F (2.7°C), the appliance turns on.
•Appliance and pumps turn off if appliance water temperature rises above 45°F (7.2°C).
CAUTION This feature of the SMART SYSTEM control module does not eliminate the
possibility of freezing. The installer must still use recognized design, installation and maintenance practice to prevent freeze potential for the appliance and system.
High limit operations
When outlet temperature exceeds 210°F (99°C), high limit action occurs. The appliance shuts down until the outlet water cools down and the RESET button on the Operator Interface is pressed.
Low water cutoff protection
1.The SMART SYSTEM control module uses temperature sensing of both inlet and outlet 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 appliance down. This along with the flow switch, ensures appliance 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. Contact manufacturer for low water cutoff kit availability.

Monitor external limits
Connections are provided on the connection board for external limits such as 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 appliance provides dry contacts for indicating when the appliance 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 appliance is firing under 50% of rate. The other timer monitors the time the appliance is firing over 50% rate.
The control uses four (4) ignition counters to monitor the amount of appliance cycles. The first counter counts all ignitions of the control. The second counter counts only ignition attempts that have failed. The third and fourth counters are the same as the first and second respectively, but can be reset by the installer.
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 alternate the standard text on the display screen with Service Due every 5 seconds. The service reminder notification can be reset by the installer.
Error logging
The control will hold in memory the last 10 error codes as well as the last 10
Pool heater temperature regulation
Operating temperature (target)
The SMART SYSTEM control module senses water temperature and regulates appliance firing rate to achieve a target temperature. The target temperature can be set between 40°F (4.5°C) and 105°F (40.5°C).
