Table 6: Thermostat Heat Anticipator Settings
Set heat anticipator to match system requirements. See
Table 6. In general, setting heat anticipator too low will
cause boiler to short cycle without bringing heated
space up to temperature. Setting heat anticipator too
high will allow boiler to operate longer than necessary
and overheat space.
D. Wire thermostat. Provide Class II circuit between
thermostat and boiler.
1. Steam or Water with gravity circulation or tankless
heater. Remove transformer from junction box.
Connect one wire from thermostat to blue wire(s).
Connect additional wire from thermostat to brown
wire or red wire for water with tankless heater.
2. Water with intermittent circulation and without
tankless heater. Connect one wire from thermostat
to Terminal "T" and additional wire to terminal "TV".
E. Alliance Indirect Water Heater (if used).
1. For wiring refer to wiring diagrams located in this
section and Alliance Installation Operating and
Service Instructions.
2. Attach junction box extension (4 - 11/16 square) to
junction box on boiler.
3. Steam Boilers only. Verify temperature limit
(Honeywell L4006 or equal, which is installer
supplied) is installed in Tapping "P", refer to
Section V: Piping and Trim.
F. Wire control circuit as shown in the appropriate wiring
diagram. See Table 6.
1. Provide individual branch circuit with fused
disconnect. Boiler is rated for 120 VAC, 60 hertz, less
than 12 amperes.
2. For zone valve wiring, provide separate 24V
transformer rather than attempting to use boiler
mounted control. Consult zone valve manufacturer
for assistance.
G. Wiring diagram and sequence of operation. Locate the
system type you are interested in from Table 6, then
refer to the page indicated.
1. Vent Damper Sequence of Operation. See Figure 34.
a. Vent Damper is continuously powered at
Terminal 1.
b. When there is a call for heat, the damper relay
coil is energized through Terminal 5 if all limits
ahead of the damper are satisfied.
c. Relay coil closes contacts, energizing damper
motor, causing damper to open.
d. When the damper blade reaches the fully open
position, power is sent back to the boiler limit/
ignition circuit through Terminal 2 and the
damper motor is de-energized.
e. When the call for heat is satisfied, the damper
relay coil is deenergized—closing contacts which
energize the damper motor. This causes the
damper to close. When the damper blade reaches
the fully closed position, the damper motor is de-
energized.

(1) If system tends to overheat above thermostat's temperature setting, reduce heat anticipator setting by 0.1 or 0.2
amps. If system tends to shortcycle without reaching desired room temperature, increase heat anticipator setting by
0.1 or 0.2 amps.
