3.2 GENERAL BOILER OPERATION
The boiler may be operated from the E8 controller or alternatively from a BCM (Boiler Cascade
Manager). The boiler management logic automatically fires the maximum number of
simultaneously operating heating elements in order to maximize heat production and overall
efficiency. Burner efficiency and a high heat exchange between surfaces contribute to the
reliable and efficient output power. The various components are designed to work together so
that operating time is shared equally among the components, thus reducing maintenance and
labor costs.
The hot water moved by the pump is pushed to the return of the primary flow of the hydraulic
separator. From here a second pump will distribute the hot water to the various destinations.
The cooled return water is drawn by the pump through the hydraulic separator to resume the
cycle via the boiler.
WARNING!
If installing to an outdoor location where freezing temperatures may occur, it is necessary
to install devices and/or materials to prevent any freezing in the condensate drain and the
Flow and Return manifolds. Failure to do so may cause serious damage to the
equipment.
