7)  The sequence of operation for a BWC series boiler on a call for heat from a thermostat is as described below:
 
 

a)  When power is first turned on, 120V is provided to the MCBA, the combustion fan and the LWCO trans-     

 

 

former.  A separate 50VA transformer, connected directly to the MCBA, powers all other low voltage circuits.

 b) 

For 

the 

first few seconds after power-up the control module goes through a self check.   

 

c)  When there is a call for heat, the control module checks to make sure the air pressure switch is open.  If it is, the  

 

 

combustion fan  will be energized and will ramp up to ignition speed.  When the air pressure switch closes, a 10  

 

 

second prepurge is activated. 

 

d)  After the prepurge, the control module energizes the gas control valve and the spark for 4.5 seconds.  If a    

 

 

flame is established and proved, the control allows the flame to stabilize for 5 seconds at the combustion fan  

 

 

ignition speed setting.  If the flame fails to prove, the control module will attempt to light the burner 4 more  

 

 

times.  If a flame is still not established, the control will lockout.

 e) 

Once 

the 

flame stabilization period has ended, the MCBA allows the burner to modulate.  The actual firing rate  

 

 

is dependent upon the measured current and recent differences between the set point temperature and the supply  

 

 

temperature.  If an outdoor sensor is connected to the control module and the boiler is responding to a call for  

 

 

heat, the set point temperature will be determined by the outdoor reset curve shown in Figure 12.4.

 

f)  Once the set point temperature is reached, the MCBA will turn the burner off and allow the combustion fan to  

 

 

operate in postpurge for 35 seconds before it turns off.

 

g)  The central heating pump will continue to operate until the room thermostat has been satisfied.  

 

h)  A demand for domestic hot water (DHW) is given priority on BWC series boilers.  If a call for DHW is received  

 

 

while the boiler is responding to a call for heat, the heating circulator is deenergized until the call for DHW is  

  satisfied.
