INTEGRATED BOILER CONTROL
The integrated boiler control monitors the status of the
room thermostat, high limit control (Aquastat), pressure
switch (air flow proving switch) and the flame sensor. It
controls the operation of the circulator, inducer motor
(blower), gas valve and spark for pilot ignition. The boiler
control also determines the sequence of operation and
timing for pre and post purge periods, trial for ignition adn
lockout. The control indicator lights (LED’s) provide infor-
mation of boiler operation when lights are steady on or
diagnostic information when they are flashing in order to
help to determine the cause of boiler failure.
WARNING: If you do not follow these instructions exactly, a
fire or explosion may result causing property damage, per-
sonal injury or loss of life.
