8C.10 Optional Field Connections
Terminal block 8 (TB8) in the control panel can be used for
connecting optional components, such as low water cutoffs,
flow switches, additional high limits and other field-supplied
devices that must be interlocked with the boiler. These are
non-powered dry contacts only. All safeties or end switches
must be wired in series by removing the supplied jumpers.
8C.11 Connections to a
Building Automation System
Brute Elite boilers can be controlled and monitored through
the included Modbus ports. The Modbus wiring should
be completed according to the diagrams shown below. If
alternate communication protocols are desired, Bradford
White offers “gateways” to allow BACnet, LON, and other
communications protocols. For additional information on
setting up Modbus and other communication protocols,
contact the factory.
Signals from a Building Automation System can be connected
to the MB2 Modbus connections on the controller. See Fig.
41. (MB1 is used to connect to the Operator Interface (UI).
If multiple boilers are connecting in a cascading Lead/ Lag
arrangement, the signals from the Building Automation
System must be brought in through a System Display. See
Fig. 42.
