INSTALLATION AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

SC-9 Controller

MODULAR BOILER CONTROLLER SERIES

SC-9 Applications

• Space heat systems with outdoor reset

• Constant temperature setpoint control

• Any of these in combination with domestic

hot water heating

If your system is different than the above, call the Slant/Fin

technical services group at 800-873-4346 to

determine if the control can accommodate it.

Controller Packing List

The SC-9 is a microprocessor control which will sequence up to

nine heating stages based on outdoor air temperature and supply

water temperature. Designed to handle a Caravan gas-fired,

oil-fired or dual fuel-fired hot water heating plant for space heating

or “Setpoint” operation, or either in combination with domestic

water heating. A large easy to read display provides current

system temperatures and operating status. The control has outputs

for a primary pump and either a combustion air damper or alarm.

ADDITIONAL FUNCTIONS INCLUDE:

Primary pump output. Pump exercising. Pump purging. Boiler

demand for space heating loads. Set point demands for set point

loads. Test sequence to ensure proper component operation. CSA

C US certified. Setback input for energy savings.

SPACE HEATING OPERATION: When the outdoor air tempera-

ture drops below a preset value, the heating system is energized.

The SC-9 Controller determines the number of stages required to

meet the space heating needs and fires them. During operation,

the Controller scans system temperatures, adding or deleting

stages as necessary to satisfy heating load.

SETPOINT OPERATION:

The SC-9 adds and deletes stages to minimize the difference

between the desired Setpoint temperature and the actual meas-

ured Supply Water Temperature.

DOMESTIC WATER HEATING:

When configured for “DHW” (Service Water Heating), the control

holds stage #9 out of the Lead/Lag firing sequencing until all other

active stages are energized. Only when the heating load reaches

a maximum will the Stage #9 relay energize. At the same time, a

motorized valve opens allowing the DHW modules to contribute to

space heating. If water temperature in the DHW modules falls

below a pre-set value, the motorized valve will close, retaining

module capacity for domestic water heating.
