•Freeze Protection Feature
The CPW board is programmed to turn-off the blower in case there is a lock-out condition. If there is a call for heat signal, and the pilot valve signal is removed and not reactivated within a pre-set time for any reason, the CPW board will turn off the blower to prevent blowing cold air continuously and freezing the heat exchanger. The blower drives will open and the system will lock in the off state. To restart the system, primary power or the thermostat signal must be turned off and back on. The pre-set freeze protection feature time is approximately 5 minutes.
U-2 Diagnostics Board
The U-2 Diagnostics board is a solid-state electronic fault indicator that has been engineered to enhance safety, simplify troubleshooting and minimize equipment down time. The U-2 safety board is the central point for wiring, operations monitoring, and fault indication for the boiler safeties. By having each safety report directly to the U-2 board, each safety function can be individually monitored. The U-2 adds complete diagnostics features that aid in the rapid diagno- sis of irregularities in boiler operation.
A single U-2 Diagnostics Board can monitor a maximum of eight safeties at one time. If, due to code requirements, more than eight safety devices must be monitored, two or more boards will be used to provided extended diagnostics capabilities. Advanced Design Boilers equipped with the standard safety suite will utilize the configuration shown in Table L-2.
Table L-2. U-2 Diagnostic Board LEDs
Light | Color | Indication |
System Enabled | Yellow | U-2 Diagnostics safety board is functional. |
Manual High Limit | Red | Water temperature is over the manual high limit setting. |
Auto High Limit | Red | Water temperature is over the auto high limit setting. |
Flow Switch | Red | Water flow rate is too low. |
Low Water Cut-off (option) | Red | Insufficient water volume for boiler operation. |
High/Low Gas Pressure | Red | Gas supply pressure is below or above the allowed minimum gas supply |
| | pressure to ensure safe operation. |
Burner High Limit | Red | Mixer or PVC vent pipe, if installed, is over heated. |
| | |
Blower/Ignition Lockout | Red | Blower failure, not enough combustion air or the equipment has an ignition |
| | lock-out condition. |
Blocked Vent | Red | The vent pressure switch has detected a blocked vent. |
The U-2 safety board has a series of red LED lights to indicate a fault occurring at a monitored safety. An additional light indicates that the diagnostics board is energized and is currently monitoring for safety faults. (In order to prevent spurious alarm conditions, the U-2 board monitors safeties only during the actual firing cycle.) Once a fault has been detected, the U-2 board will illuminate the corresponding LED lamp, will shut-down the boiler, and will light the flashing red LED “Service” lamp on the CPW board. If more than one fault is detected, the U-2 board will display the priority fault based on the safety hierarchy as labeled on the U-2 board. Once the first fault is cleared, the second fault lamp will illuminate until cleared.
WARNING Only qualified persons shall attempt to repair the boiler. Improper adjustment, service or mainte- nance may damage the equipment, create a hazard resulting in asphyxiation, explosion, fire, electric shock, personal injury or property damage, and will void the warranty.
