SEQUENCE OF OPERATION 

 

OPERATION

 

DISPLAY

 

1. 

Upon a call for heat, the control turns on the appropriate 
pumps.

 

WHR: Standby 
OUT: 61.4C (65)

 

2. 

The control connects 230 VAC to the fan.  The fan does 
not run at this time. 

 

If  the  unit  is  equipped  with  a  flow  switch  or  low 
water  cut-off,  it  must  close  before  the  control 
powers up the fan.

 

 

If  the  unit  is  equipped  with  a  manual  reset  high 
limit  it  must  be  closed  before  the  control  powers 
up the fan.

 

 

If the unit is equipped with a solenoid valve and/or 
a vent valve, they will be energized along with the 
fan.

 

 

If the unit is equipped with a gas pressure switch, 
it must close at this time.

 

 

If  there  is  an  auxiliary  device  connected  to  the 
unit, the unit will then provide 24 VAC to its enable 
relay.  If the auxiliary device has a proving switch, 
it must close before the sequence continues.

 

WHR: Standby 
OUT: 61.4C (65)

 

3. 

The control then starts a 10 second prepurge cycle.

 

WHR: PREPURGE 
OUT: 61.5C (65)

 

4. 

Once the prepurge cycle is  complete, and the  blocked 
drain  and  auto-reset  high  limit  are  closed,  the  control 
starts  the  5-second  trial  for  ignition  by  sending  spark 
voltage  to  the  spark  electrode  and  opening  the  gas 
valve.

 

WHR: IGNITION 
OUT: 61.5C (65)

 

5. 

If  the  control  does  not  detect  flame  by  the  end  of  the 
trial  for  ignition,  the  control  performs  a  10  second 
postpurge.    On  the  EKW45CE  to  EKW115CE  models, 
the control will perform another prepurge and will try to 
light the burner again.  If the burner does not light after 
4  trials,  the  control  will lockout  for  1  hour  and  then  try 
another  set  of  4  trials.    On  the  EKW145CE  to 
EKW235CE  models  the  unit  will  lockout  until  manually 
reset.

 

WHR: POSTPURGE, PREPURGE 
OUT: 61.5C (65)

 

6. 

If the control detects a flame before the trial for ignition 
ends,  it  begins  to  modulate  the  burner  in  order  to 
maintain the set point.

 

WHR: RUN 20% RATE 
OUT: 62.6C (65)

 

7. 

Once the call for heat is satisfied, the control will turn off 
the  burner.    The  fan  will  remain  on  for  the  10-second 
postpurge cycle.  The primary pump will continue to run 
for its respective pump delay time, and then turn off.

 

WHR: POSTPURGE 
OUT: 64.5C (65))

 

8. 

Primary pump off.

 

WHR: Standby 
OUT: 64.8C (65)
