9.10 Vari-Prime
Vari-Prime is a variable pump control that is
standard equipment on all MGH boilers. Pump speed
is controlled to maintain a user-chosen temperature
rise between the inlet and outlet of the MagnaTherm.
General PCB Operation
1. The desired Delta T can be set to any of the
following values by moving or adding jumpers to the
JP2 terminal on the control: See Figure 30
-15 deg F/8 deg C
-20 deg F/10 deg C
-25 deg F/13 deg C
-30 deg F/ 16 deg C
By adding a second jumper, one on “15 deg F” and
one on “20 deg F”, it is possible to achieve 35 deg F
/19 deg C.
By adding a second jumper, one on “15 deg F” and
one on “25 deg F”, it is possible to achieve 40 deg
F/22 deg C.
2. As shipped, the Vari-Prime has a jumper on
the JP4 terminal, to operate a 0-10 VDC output. If a
4-20 mA output is needed, move the jumper to the
JP5 terminal. Figure 30
3. Vari-Prime can operate in
°F or °C. A jumper
on the JP1 terminal allows the user to choose the
temperature scale.
4 If Main Gas valve is “OFF” AND a call for heat
is “TRUE” then the PCB overrides the PID control
and runs the pump output at 100% (10 VDC, or 20
mA).
5. Once the Main Gas valve is energized the PCB
will maintain pump output at 100% for 60 seconds
to allow the system to stabilize. Once the 60 second
timer has expired, the PCB will then run the pump
output speed based on the jumper setpoint. .
6. When “T-T” is satisfied, the PCB will run pump
at 100% output for the duration of the pump overrun
time.
7. A jumper on the “JP1” terminal on the Vari-
Prime PCB will allow the Vari-Prime to operate
in degrees Fahrenheit or Celsius. (Factory set for
Fahrenheit).
8. The Vari-Prime PCB has a low end cap to
prevent nuisance low flow trips. The cap is factory
programmed to 2 VDC.
9. Factory settings are:
-Degrees - Fahrenheit
-Output Signal- 0 -10VDC
-Delta T setpoint - 30
