Setting Up Base Loading
e base load boiler is controlled using a set of contacts to enable
it (location J4). Enabling/Disabling this relay contact can be done
using any combination of (3) quali ers to start the boiler and (4)
to stop the boiler. ese quali ers are:
1. Modulation %:
a. START menu item: e relay contact will close
when the MOD % from the Master boiler exceeds
this value. ADVANCE SETUP:BASE LOADING:
START>MOD
b. STOP menu item: e relay contact will open
when the MOD % from the Master boiler falls below this
value. ADVANCE SETUP:BASE LOADING:
STOP<MOD
If the START>MOD value is set to a value higher than
the ADVANCED SETUP:MOD-MAX: all boilers
will be ring before this modulation rate is reached. is
will ensure that all available boilers are ring before the
base load boiler relay is enabled.
2. Outside Air Temperature:
a. START menu item: e relay contact will close to
enable the boiler when the OA T read from the Outside
Air Temperature sensor (if Equipped) falls below this
temperature. ADVANCE SETUP:BASE LOADING:
START< OA T
b. STOP menu item: e relay contact will open to
disable the boiler when the OA T read from the Outside
Air Temperature sensor (if equipped) rises above this
value. ADVANCE SETUP:BASE LOADING:
STOP> OA T
If the OA T quali er is used as the Start and Stop
quali er, ensure that there is at least a few degrees
di erence for hysteresis.
c. Se ing the : STOP<MOD to a % value slightly above the
min re rate % of the system will ensure that the base load
boiler will stop before the rst condensing boiler stops.
is is due to the Modulation rate being close to the min
modulation rate before the water temperature exceeds the
top of the heating band.
