SETTING THE CONTROL

To set COLD START operation

Operates on call for heat only.

Low Temperature Limit

Make sure Low Temperature Limit is turned fully counter-

clockwise (OFF position).

Low Temperature Differential

No change is required.

High Temperature Limit

(factory setting = 190°F)

Adjust setting until desired temperature is displayed.

High Temperature Differential

(factory setting = 10°F)

Using a small screwdriver, adjust setting until desired differ-

ential is displayed.

To set WARM START operation

Maintains temperature for domestic hot water.

Low Temperature Limit

Adjust setting until desired temperature is displayed.

Low Temperature Differential

Using a small screwdriver, adjust setting until desired differ-

ential is displayed.

High Temperature Limit

(factory setting = 190°F)

Adjust setting until desired temperature is displayed.

High Temperature Differential

(factory setting = 10°F)

Using a small screwdriver, adjust setting until desired differ-

ential is displayed.

WARM START

(maintains temperature for domestic hot water)

Low Limit Switch = ON

COLD START

Low Limit Switch = OFF

Example

High Limit = 180°

Differential = 10°

On a call for heat, the burner will
shut off at 180° and restart at
170° (180°-10°). The circulator
will run as long as there is a call
for heat.

High Temperature Limit

(Adjustable 100° to 220°F)
De-energizes burner at HIGH
LIMIT setting

High Temperature Limit

(Adjustable 100° to 220°F)
De-energizes burner at HIGH
LIMIT setting

High Temperature
Differential

(Adjustable 10° to 30°F)
Re-energizes burner when
temperature falls to the HIGH
LIMIT DIFFERENTIAL set point

High Temperature
Differential

(Adjustable 10° to 30°F)
Re-energizes burner when
temperature falls to the HIGH
LIMIT DIFFERENTIAL set point

Low Temperature Limit

(Adjustable 110° to 200°F)
De-energizes burner at LOW
LIMIT setting

Low Temperature
Differential

(Adjustable 10° to 30°F)
Re-energizes burner when
temperature falls to the LOW
LIMIT DIFFERENTIAL set point

Example

High Limit = 180°

Differential = 10°

On a call for heat, the burner will
shut off at 180° and restart at
170° (180°-10°). The circulator
will run as long as there is a call
for heat.

Example

Low Limit = 150°

Differential = 10°

When there is no call for heat,
the burner fires at

140°

(150°-10°) to maintain boiler
temperature. Burner shuts off
at 150°.

NOTE: To prioritize domestic hot
water the HydroStat control will
not allow the circulator to
operate at any time the
temperature is below the low
limit setting.

NOTE: Be careful not to select overlapping temperature settings.

For example: If the HIGH TEMPERATURE LIMIT is set at

190°F with a HIGH TEMPERATURE DIFFERENTIAL set at 20°F,

then the LOW TEMPERATURE LIMIT needs to be set at 170°F

(190°F - 20°F = 170°F) or below.
IMPORTANT: To prevent flue gas condensation and reduce fatigue

caused by thermal cycling on conventional (non-condensing) boilers,

both HIGH and LOW LIMIT set points should be 150°F or above

(Limit Setting - Differential Setting ≥ 150°F). Boiler manufacturerʼs

temperature requirements supercede these recommendations.
