Serial Number Date Code Reference (#100) Using the chart below, a serial number of WC9876553 would have been built in the year 2000 and in the month of March. A serial number beginning with KA would have been built in January of 1993. The remainder of the serial is just a sequential number.

Due to a computer error there were some OA serial water heaters manufactured.

They were built in January of 1997.

This type of respirator is based on the OSHA Service Manual When calling or writing about the boiler – Please have the boiler model and serial number from the boiler rating plate. Consider piping and installation when determining boiler location (see the Knight Boiler Installation and Operation Manual).

Instead, shut off the gas supply at a location external to the appliance. Do not use this boiler if any part has been under water. The possible damage to a flooded appliance can be extensive and present numerous safety hazards. Any appliance that has been under water must be replaced. Service Manual Maintenance. Service and maintenance schedules.

Address reported problems. Inspect boiler area and boiler interior. Clean condensate trap. Check all piping for leaks.

The blower pulls in gas and air and pushes flue products out of the boiler through the heat exchanger and flue piping. The control module regulates blower speed to control boiler firing rate.

The gas valve senses the amount of air flowing into the boiler and allows only the right amount of gas to flow. Upon a call for heat, the gas pressure switch(es) must be closed. Once the gas pressure switch(es) are closed, the control turns on the appropriate pumps (system and boiler pumps for space heating, DHW pump for DHW). The flow switch and/or LWCO must close.

DHW boiler set point. If the boiler is not part of a Cascade, and both the space heating and DHW calls for heat remain active long enough, the boiler will switch back and forth between the two heating modes until one of them is satisfied.

The control uses an internal clock for the night setback feature and for logging of events. For these features to work correctly, the clock must be set when the boiler is first installed or anytime the boiler has been powered off for more than four (4) hours. The delay sets the length of time the boiler will stay in the Service Mode if no keys have been pressed before going back to its original state. This parameter can only be changed by the installer by accessing the Service Mode Delay parameter.

DHW tank as a separate load, or as a zone on the primary loop. When programmed as a separate load, the boiler will turn on the DHW pump and then turn off the boiler pump when an indirect DHW demand begins.

When programmed as. Service Outdoor Reset The option of controlling up to three (3) different outdoor resets for low outdoor temperatures is available. Outdoor (1 - 3) Low When the outdoor air temperature drops to this point, the water temperature will be at the Set point 1 at Low Outdoor Temp 1, Set point 2 at Low Outdoor Temp 2 and Set point 3 at Low Outdoor Temp 3 parameters (FIG. The control will bypass the anti-cycling time if the inlet water temperature drops too much. The control will use the inlet water temperature the boiler was at when it shut off as the starting point. If the inlet temperature drops below the temperature parameter the control will abort anti-cycling and allow the boiler to fire. Outlet Sensor.

BMS Thermostat Input When controlling the boiler through the 0 - 10V BMS input or through ModBus, the boiler can be enabled one of two ways. With the BMS Thermostat Input parameter set to ACTIVE, the boiler will be enabled by closing the Heat/Loop Demand 1 input. When the first boiler reaches a certain rate (default = 90%), it lowers its rate to 45% and turns on the next boiler at 45%.

The two (2) boilers then modulate at the same rate. Service Manual DHW Pump Anti-Seize Delay If the boiler pump does not run for 24 hours, it will be turned on briefly to prevent it from seizing. The length of time it runs is determined by the DHW Pump Anti-Seize Delay parameter. ModBus and the BMS Thermostat Input is set to INACTIVE, the On Volts parameter determines the 0 - 10V BMS input voltage at which the boiler is enabled. The minimum value is 0.5V and the maximum is 10.0V.

The default value is 2.0V. Check air vents.

Test low water cutoff (if used). Reset button (low water cutoff). Check boiler piping (gas and water) for leaks. Operate relief valve. Shut boiler down (unless boiler used for domestic hot water). The boiler should be inspected annually only by a qualified service technician. In addition, the maintenance WARNING and care of the boiler designated in Table 2-1 and explained on the following pages must be performed to assure maximum boiler efficiency and reliability.

Failure to service and maintain the boiler and system could result in equipment failure. Check the cold fill pressure for the system. Verify it is correct (must be a minimum of 12 psi).

Watch the system pressure as the boiler heats up (during testing) to ensure pressure does not rise too high. Replace ground wires if ground continuity is not satisfactory. Check all boiler wiring 1.

Inspect all boiler wiring, making sure wires are in good condition and securely attached. Check control settings 1. Set the SMART SYSTEM control module display to Parameter Mode and check all settings. Follow the “To Turn Off Gas to Appliance” instructions for the boiler in Section 10 - Startup of the Installation and Operation Manual. Do not drain the boiler unless it will be exposed to freezing temperatures.

If using freeze prevention fluid in system, do not drain. F2 - 3.15 AMP FUSE BLOWER 5.

The boiler is shipped with three (3) spare fuses in a plastic bag attached to the control module cover. If necessary, replace open fuse (F3 is.80 amps, F2 is 3.15 amps, and F1 is 5 amps). Unit locked out on fault. Unit in Shutdown Mode.

Ramp delay active. Unit Does Not Modulate - Boiler controlled by BMS. Above 50% - Flue sensor open. CAUSE. Check external line switch, fuse, or breaker. Check position of ON/OFF switch.

Turn switch to the ON position. Checking temperature sensors The boiler temperature sensors (inlet water, outlet water, system water, flue, and outdoor air) are all resistance type devices. The following tables show the correct values for the sensors at various temperatures. Use an ohmmeter to read the resistance of the sensor at a known temperature. Refer to Section 6 - Hydronic Piping of the Knight Boiler Installation and Operation Manual for minimum flow rates. Verify that the boiler is piped in a primary/secondary fashion and that the boiler and system pump are running on a call for heat.
