SECTION C: Installation

The Raypak modulating temperature control is pro- vided to maintain the desired system water temperature. The control has various modes of operation which are listed below.

Operating Modes

Mode 1 – Setpoint operation using parallel piping. The heater outlet water temperature is controlled to the boiler target setpoint.

Mode 2 – Setpoint operation using primary / secondary piping. The control modulates the heater to satisfy a remote header sensor. The heater is turned off based on boiler max and boiler differential (factory default H7 boilers).

Mode 3 – Dedicated DHW operation using parallel piping. A call for heat is determined by the DHW sen- sor. The heater outlet water is controlled to the boiler target temperature (factory default WH7 water heaters).

Mode 4 – Outdoor reset and reset override operation using parallel piping. The heater is operated as in Mode

1.However the target temperature is based on outdoor reset. The outdoor reset temperature can be remotely overridden.

Mode 5 – Outdoor reset and reset override operation using primary/secondary piping. The heater is operated as in Mode 2. However, the target temperature is based on outdoor reset. The outdoor reset temperature can be remotely overridden.

Mode 6 – This mode is used for remote control mode. The Boil Max setting is the heater shutdown tempera- ture.

Definitions

The following items are common to Modes 1 thru 5. They are not required for Mode 6 – the mode for exter- nal heater control.

%OUT - Current percent modulation rate of heater

BOIL DSGN - Design boiler water temperature used in heat loss calculations

BOIL MASS - This setting allows adjustment in the field for high or low thermal masses; High thermal mass (setting=3) provides slower reaction, lower ther- mal mass (setting=1) provides faster reaction

BOIL MAX - Highest outlet water temperature that the control is allowed to use as a target temperature

BOIL MIN - Lowest outlet water temperature that the control is allowed to use as a target temperature

BOIL ON - Accumulated runtime of heater (up to 999 hours, then resets to 0)

BOIL OUT - Actual heater outlet water temperature

BOIL START - Starting boiler water temperature

BOIL SUP - Actual system supply water temperature

BOIL TARGET - Target temperature that the heater is trying to maintain

‘BURNER’ DELAY - Heater delay from the start of the ignition sequence until it fires

DIFF - The operating differential of the heater; The heater outlet water temperature is allowed to rise above the BOIL TARGET temperature by 1/2 of this differ- ential before the heater shuts off

MODE - Operating mode of the heater

OUTDR - Outdoor air temperature

OUTDR DESIGN - Design outdoor air temperature used in the heat loss calculation

OUTDR START - Starting outdoor air temperature

PUMP DLY - Sets the operating time of the pump once the CFH is satisfied

TANK - Current DHW tank temperature (Mode 3)

TANK DIFF - Storage tank differential (Mode 3)

TANK TARGET - Target temperature in the DHW storage tank (Mode 3)

UNITS - Selects the temperature units to be displayed (oF or oC). For example, if the heater target temperature is set to 160°F and the differential is set to 10°F, on temperature rise, the heater will shut off at 165oF. Once the heater shuts off, it will not come on again until the temperature falls to 155oF.

WWSD - Selects the outdoor temperature that shuts the heater off, no matter what the demand. NOTE: The WWSD segment is displayed on the LCD.

Operation

The Raypak modulating temperature control uses a Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) as a method of supply- ing information. The LCD is used to setup and monitor
