Thor “Frost Buster” Operating Manual Model LD5030

Warning- Use of this equipment creates hot surfaces and contains hot liquids. Fluid operating temperatures may rise to 185 degrees Fahrenheit. Be aware and use caution when operating or working around this equipment! Boiler compartment contains burning fuel and flame. Fuel tank contains flammable liquid (Winter Blend Diesel.) Smoking is not allowed in or around this equipment. Use caution at all times when operating the hose reel! Do not allow possible entanglement with hose!

STARTUP

Step 1: Read and understand all instructions before proceeding. *Consult Boiler Operating Manual for Proper Operation of Boiler Step 2: Check fluid level in reservoir. The fluid level should appear above the red and white label shown in Fig 1. Add a mixture of 30% propylene glycol and 70% water ONLY until fluid level rises to the indicator.

Fig 1 1

Step 3: Seasonally check the level of lubricant in the reel drive motor (Fig 2) by removing the access plug and filling with 80/90W Gear Oil. Step 4: Check for adequate fuel in the burner reservoir (Fig 3.) Fill with Winter Blend Diesel Only. Step 5: Unroll hose spreading over the area to be heated (Fig 4.) The hose is 3000 feet long and is made of three 1000-foot sections connected to one another. To facilitate more effective warming, each section of hose may be disconnected from the loop and connected to the auxiliary circuit located just under the reel. The connectors are quick couplers and snap together when the outer ring of the coupler is retracted (Fig 5 & Fig 5A.) The second and third hoses may then be used to make three continuous loops.

DO NOT CONNECT OR DISCONNECT HOSES UNTIL FLUID HAS COOLED TO ROOM TEMPERATURE AND THE MACHINE HAS BEEN SHUT OFF!

Note: The hose may be laid out in a symmetrical pattern over the area to be heated. Spacing’s of 12-24” are common for thawing. Spacing of up to 48” may be adequate for concrete curing. Be careful to spread the hose evenly and do not leave any areas open so as not to receive the necessary heat. 3000 feet of hose spaced at 24” will cover approximately 6,000 sq. feet. Be careful to protect hose from abrasion, stretching, and from coming into contact with anything that may cut or rupture it.

Step 6: All six (6) valves on the system must be open to allow fluid flow.. Valves are open when handles are in alignment with tubing. Valve one and six are at the bottom of the reservoir (Fig 6) and valve two is on the side of the reservoir (Fig 7.) Valves one and two should be open at all times except for service of the boiler.

Fig 6 Fig 7

Valve three is above the fluid pump (Fig 8), valve four is at the back of the reservoir (Fig 9), and valve five is on the overflow line above the line pressure gauge (Fig 10.) These valves must all be open for proper operation although no damage should occur if system is operated inadvertently.

Step 7: Adjust desired temperature of fluid to be circulated by adjusting thermostat (Fig 11.) Use a flat tip screwdriver to turn dial to desired setting. 180 Degrees Fahrenheit is the maximum setting for heating. Lesser temperatures may be desirable for concrete curing or other uses. These are factory preset for ground thawing. Step 8: System is designed to operate on a 30 Amp 110/120Volt Circuit. Connect supplied cord to correct power source. Step 9: Turn on Boiler with switch (Fig 12.) Allow Boiler to reach operating temperature. (Boiler has been factory preset to the maximum recommended temperature at 180 Degrees Fahrenheit.) The fluid from the reservoir will be circulated continuously through the reservoir and boiler.

Fig 12 Step 10: After hose is positioned and you are ready to start heating, turn on the fluid circulation pump with Pump Switch (Fig 13.)

Fig 13

WARNING– DO NOT HANDLE HOSE WITH PUMP TURNED ON!

Step 11: Adjust line pressure. Pressure should NOT exceed 100 PSI. Read the pressure gauge found near the rear of the pump and adjust using the bypass regulator (Fig 14.) Turning the regulator handle clockwise will increase the pressure in the hose and counter-clockwise will decrease the pressure.

Fig 14 5

Page 7: Thor “Frost Buster” Operating Manual€¦ · Thor “Frost Buster” Operating Manual Model LD5030 Warning- Use of this equipment creates hot surfaces and contains hot liquids

Note– Hose pressure will vary because of length of hose being used, number of bends in the hose, and other factors, so check and adjust line pressure with each use. Step 12: Visually check hose, fittings, and system for leaks. Step 13: Check fluid flow by reading flow meter (Fig 15.) The indicator inside the glass will indicate the GPM flowing through the hose. Normal flow is about 3 GPM for 3000 feet of hose in one circuit or 12-16 GPM for 3000 feet of hose in 3-1000 foot circuits. If the flow is inadequate check the hose for kinks. Step 14: Cover hose with insulating blankets to contain heat being careful to protect hose from damage. Step 15: Monitor fuel and fluid levels periodically as the unit is operating.

Keep unauthorized personnel away!

SHUT-DOWN

Step 1: Turn off Boiler with switch (see Fig 12.) Step 2: Turn off the fluid circulation pump with Pump Switch (see Fig 13.) Step 3: Shut the three (3) valves on the system to stop fluid flow. Valves are closed when handles are in perpendicular with tubing. Valve three is about the fluid pump (see Fig 8), valve 4 is at the back of the reservoir (see Fig 9), and valve five is on the overflow line about the line pressure gauge (see Fig 10.) Step 4: After hose and fluid has cooled sufficiently, roll up hose by first turning on the reel drive motor (Fig 16.) Apply rearward pressure on the reel control lever to begin winding the hose. Hose should be positioned and fed onto the reel as it is wrapped (Fig 17.) Do not attempt to drag long lengths of hose as damage to the hose may occur. Control the speed and power of the reel by adding or removing pressure to the reel handle.

If using three lengths of hose, disconnect connections on the first loop of hose when it is fully wrapped, then disconnect the second hose from the auxiliary circuit and connect the hoses together. Continue wrapping the second loop until fully wrapped, then disconnect the third hose from the auxiliary circuit and connect second and third hoses together. Continue wrapping. Inspect hose for damage as it is returned to the reel. Repairs to the hose may be made by removing the damaged section and reconnecting the hose with a 5/8” Gates Sure-Grip Hose Clamp available from your Thor supplier or from most auto parts stores. Caution– As the reel becomes fuller, it becomes heavier and has more momentum. Slow the wind speed as the drum fills with hose. Keep all electrical covers and all shields in place at all times. Keep hands and feet away from moving parts. NO SMOKING in or around Frost Buster. 7

Carefully inspect the chimney or exhaust vent system.Make sure it is properly sized and in good working condition. Follow the instructions supplied by the appliance manufacturer.The installation must strictly comply with all applicable codes, authorities having jurisdiction and the latest revision of the National Fire Protection Association Standard NFPA 31 for the installation of chimneys and vent sizing, (or CSA-B139 and CSA-B140 in Canada).Regulation by these authorities take precedence over the general instructions provided in this installation manual.

Fire, Smoke & Asphyxiation Hazard

piece of broken tile wedged in the chimney should be removed.No other appliance connection should be made to the same fl ue pipe.The fl ue pipe should have an upward pitch toward the chimney of at least 1/4” per foot of length. It should fi t tightly and should not project into the chimney.Any leakage between tiles, around clean-out doors, or around the vent pipe should be sealed.

Insulated stainless steel chimney liners

The new designs of high effi ciency oil furnaces and boilers in conjunction with fl ame retention oil burners are more effi cient. One result of increased effi ciency is lower fl ue gas temperatures. As fl ue gases rise in the chimney, they will cool and condense when they reach the dew point. The condensation will mix with the sulphur in the fl ue gases creating sulphuric acid. The acid will attack the chimney mortar, brick and clay liners causing corrosion, deterioration and blockage of the chimney. Eventually the blockage could prevent exhausting the fl ue gases. Instead, the fl ue gases could vent out the barometric damper into the living space.

Therefore, it is strongly recommended that an approved insulated stainless steel liner be installed.

For those installations not requiring a chimney, such as through-the-wall vented appliances, follow the instructions given by the appliance and power venter (if used) manufacturers.

Combustion air supply

Do not attempt to install outside air piping to the burner without using the outside air kit and instructions.

Failure to comply could result in impaired combustion, appliance soot-up, puffback of smoke, and fi re or asphyxiation hazards.

Follow the Outside Air Kit Instructions Exactly

Appliance located in confi ned space

The confi ned space should have two (2) permanent openings: one near the top of the enclosure and one near the bottom of the enclosure. Each opening shall have a free area of not less than (1) one square inch per 1,000 BTU’s per hour of the total input rating of all appliances within the enclosure. The openings shall have free access to the building interior, which should have adequate infi ltration from the outside.

Exhaust fans and other air-using devices

Size air openings large enough to allow for all air-using devices in addition to the minimum area required for combustion air. If there is any possibility of the equipment room developing negative pressure (because of exhaust fans or clothes dryers, for example), either pipe combustion air directly to the burner or provide a sealed enclosure for the burner and supply it with its own combustion air supply.

Direct air supply and sidewall venting

Some AFG burners are equipped with combustion air boots to allow use of outside air for combustion.When sidewall venting appliances, carefully follow appliance and power venter instructions for installation and wiring.

Outside air kit applications

Refer to separate instruction sheet supplied with AF/AFG outside air kit for installation. This optional kit allows combustion air to be piped directly to the burner (Beckett part number 51747).

Clearances to burner and applianceProvide space around burner and appliance for easy service and maintenance.Check minimum clearances against those shown by the appliance manufacturer and by applicable building codes.

Combustion chamber — Burner retrofi ttingVerify that the appliance combustion chamber provides at least the minimum dimensions given in Table 3.

Section: Inspect/Prepare Installation Site

The burner cannot properly burn the fuel if it is not supplied with a reliable combustion air source.Follow the guidelines in the latest editions of the NFPA 31 and CSA-B139 regarding providing adequate air for combustion and ventilation.

Failure to provide adequate air supply could seriously affect the burner performance and result in damage to the equipment, asphyxiation, explosion or fi re hazards.

Adequate Combustion and Ventilation Air Supply Required

When retrofi tting appliances that have unlined stainless steel combustion chambers, protect the chamber by lining the inside surfaces with a ceramic fi ber blanket, such as a wet-pac or other suitable refractory material.Some steel chambers may not require liners because the appliance was designed and tested for use with fl ame retention burners. Refer to the manufacturer’s instructions.

Failure to comply could result in damage to the heating equipment and result in fi re or asphyxiation hazards.

Refer to the appliance manufacturer’s instructions. Do not omit the LFRB when specifi ed. Omitting the baffl e when specifi ed or installing the baffl e when not specifi ed could result in impaired burner performance.

Burner fuel unitVerify that the burner fuel unit is compatible with the oil supply system. For more details, refer to the pump manufacturer’s instructions provided with the burner.

Attach air tube (if not already installed)If using a fl ange and gasket, slide them onto the air tube. Then attach the air tube to the burner chassis using the four sheet metal screws provided. Refer to Figure 4 for details.

Nozzle and Pump Pressure

Install burner nozzle (if not already installed)Remove the plastic plug protecting the nozzle adapter threadsPlace a 3/4” open-end wrench on the nozzle adapter. Insert the nozzle into the adapter and fi nger tighten. Finish tightening with a 5/8” open-end wrench. Use care to avoid bending the burner head support legs or electrodes. If you remove the head to replace the nozzle (type “L1”/“L2” or “V1” heads), carefully reconnect the head to the nozzle adapter, making sure that the head support makes contact with the nozzle adapter shoulder. Refer to Figure 5 or 6.

1.

2.

Section: Prepare the Burner

Use only nozzles having the brand, fl ow rate (gph), spray angle and pattern specifi ed by the appliance manufacturer.

Follow the appliance manufacturer’s specifi cations for the required pump outlet pressure for the nozzle, since this affects the fl ow rate.

Nozzle manufacturers calibrate nozzle fl ow rates at 100 psig.When pump pressures are higher than 100 psig, the actual nozzle fl ow rate will be greater than the gph stamped on the nozzle body. (Example: A 1.00 gph nozzle at 140 psig = 1.18 gph)

Securely tighten the nozzle (90 torque inch pounds). For typical nozzle fl ow rates at various pressures refer to Table 5.

Incorrect nozzles and fl ow rates could result in impaired combustion, under-fi ring, over-fi ring, sooting, puff-back of hot gases, smoke and potential fi re or asphyxiation hazards.

Section: Mount Burner on Appliance

Make all adjustments exactly as outlined in the following information.

Incorrect Adjustments could cause combustion problems, carbon deposition from fl ame impingement, heavy smoke generation and fi re hazard.

Adjust the ‘Z’ dimension to the required specifi cation.

Check/Adjust ‘Z’ Dimension - ‘F’ headsThe important ‘Z’ dimension is the distance from the face of the nozzle to the fl at face of the head (or heat shield, if applicable). This distance for F heads is 1-⅛” (1-⅜” if the air tube has a heat shield). The “Z” dimension is factory set for burners shipped with the air tube installed. Even if factory set, verify that the “Z” dimension has not been changed.

Use the following procedure to adjust the “Z” dimension, if it is not correct:

1.

2.

Turn off power to the burner. Disconnect the oil connector tube from the nozzle lineSee above fi gure. Loosen the splined nut from the nozzle line. Loosen the hex head screw securing the escutcheon plate to the burner housing. Place the end of a ruler at the face of the nozzle and, using a straight edge across the head, measure the distance to the face of the head. A Beckett T501 gauge may also be used.Slide the nozzle line forward or back until this dimension for F heads is 1-⅛” (1-⅜” to the face of the heat shield, if applicable). Tighten the hex head screw to secure the escutcheon plate to the burner chassis. Then tighten the splined nut and attach the oil connector tube.

The burner may be equipped with a single-stage fuel unit for these installations. Connect the fuel supply to the burner with a single supply line if you want a one-pipe system (making sure the bypass plug is NOT installed in the fuel unit.) Manual bleeding of the fuel unit is required on initial start-up. If connecting a two-pipe fuel supply, install the fuel unit bypass plug.

Fuel supply below the level of the burner

When the fuel supply is more than eight feet below the level of the burner, a two-pipe fuel supply system is required. Depending on the fuel line diameter and horizontal and vertical length, the installation may also require a two-stage pump. Consult the fuel unit manufacturer’s literature, included with the burner, for lift and vacuum capability.

Fuel line installation

Continuous lengths of heavy wall copper tubing are recommended. Always use fl are fi ttings. Never use compression fi ttings.Always install fi ttings in accessible locations. Proper routing of fuel lines is required to prevent air cavitation and vibration.

New InstallationOrder well assemblies separately; see Table 1 and form no. 68-0040, Immersion Wells and Compression Fittings for Temperature Controllers. Boilers usually have tappings that allow the well to be mounted horizontally so boiler water of average temperature can circulate freely over the well.

1. Turn off all power and drain the boiler, if applicable.2. If no tapping is provided, prepare properly sized and

threaded tapping near the top of the boiler.3. Sparingly coat the well threads with pipe dope.

NOTE: Do not attempt to tighten by using the case as a handle.

4. Install the well in the boiler tapping and tighten securely.

5. Refill boiler and check for water leakage.6. Loosen but do not remove the well clamp screw.7. Fit the case into the well so the clamp on the case

slides over the flange on the well.8. Securely tighten the clamp screw.9. Insert the sensor element into the well until it bot-

toms. See Replacement Sensor Installation section for details. (If necessary, slightly bend the wire inside the case to hold the sensor against the bot-tom of the well.)

10. Turn power ON.11. Set High Limit, Low Limit and Low Limit Differential

to the settings recommended by the boiler OEM. (See OPERATION section.) (See INSTALLATION steps 6 and 7.)

12. On L7248L models, adjust ELL option to match your configuration (see OPERATION section, and Fig. 11 and 13).

IMPORTANT

Best thermal response is obtained with a well that snugly fits the sensor. Insert the sensor until it rests against the bottom of the well. Use a well of correct length and bend the wiring, if neces-sary, to hold the bulb against the bottom of the well.

If the well is not a snug fit on the sensor, use the heat-conductive compound (furnished with TRADELINE® models) as follows: Fold the plastic bag of compound lengthwise and twist it gently. Then snip off end of bag and work the open end of the bag all the way into the well. Slowly pull out the bag while squeezing it firmly to distribute compound evenly in the well. Bend the wiring, if necessary, to hold the sensor against the bottom of the well and to hold outer end of the sensor in firm contact with the side of the well. See Fig. 2. Wipe excess compound from the outer end of the well.

Fig. 2. Position of sensor in immersion well.

Flush-Mounted Aquastat ReplacementTurn off all power and remove the old control. Refer to the cover insert of the old control to identify and tag each external lead as it is disconnected. If the old well is unsuitable for the new installation, remove it and replace it with a suitable new well. If the old well is suitable, use it.

Well-Mounted Aquastat ReplacementTurn off all power and remove the old control. Refer to the cover insert of the old control to identify and tag each external lead as it is disconnected. If the old well is unsuitable for the new installation, remove it and proceed with instructions for new installation. If the old well is suitable, use it.

1. Loosen, but do not remove, the well clamp screw on the side of the control case.

2. Position immersion well clamp snugly over the flange of the adapter and tighten the clamp screw.

3. Insert the sensor into the well as shown in Fig. 2 or 3. (See Replacement Sensor Installation section for details.)

OPERATION

GeneralThe L7224A,C and L7248A,C,L Oil Electronic Aquastat Controllers are primary safety limit-rated devices designed for use with oil fired boilers with line voltage burners and circulators. Many boilers do not include wiring or control compartments as part of the design, but are provided with an integral, replaceable, immersion well that is the mounting hardware for the Aquastat Controllers. Wiring to the other controls is done through flexible metal conduit.

For boilers that do include a remotely (flush) mounted control, the wiring may be completed with conduit or routed behind the boiler sheet metal.

A separate electromechanical high-limit is not required in a system that uses this control to meet Underwriters Laboratories Inc. requirements for oil-fired boiler assemblies, UL 726.

On the L7224 models, the High Limit, Low Limit, Low Limit Differential, and Anti Short-Cycle time can be adjusted to the setting recommended by the boiler OEM. On the L7248 models, the High Limit, and Anti Short-Cycle time are also adjustable, see �“Adjusting Settings�”.

The overall range of the High Limit is from 130 °F to 240 °F (54 °C to 116 °C). Select devices may have different ranges. Some models have limited ranges on the High Limit setpoint; this limited range is listed on the device label.

Some models also have a Low Limit and Low Limit Differential adjustment. The range of the Low Limit is from 110 °F to 220 °F (43 °C to 104 °C). Select devices may have different ranges.

The Zr setting can be set to DHW, Zoning, or for tankless coil applications depending on the L7224/L7248.

If an Outdoor Reset Module is installed, the reset curve can be set by entering the minimum outdoor temperature, minimum (boiler) temperature, and maximum outdoor temperature on the 3-digit display. The range of the minimum outdoor temperature is from -40 °F to 40 °F (-40 °C to 4.4 °C) and has a default setting of 0 °F (-18 °C). The range of the maximum outdoor temperature is from 30 °F to 70 °F (-1.1 °C to 21.1 °C) and has a default setting of 40 °F. The range of the minimum (water or boiler) temperature is from 80 °F to 180 °F (26.7 °C to 82.2 °C) and has a default setting of 130 °F. See the �“Outdoor Reset Module�” Installation Instructions (form number 69-2335) for more information on setting the boiler reset curve and all related parameters.

The L7224A,C and L7248A,C,L are designed for use with 24 Vac electronic and electromechanical thermostats or EnviraCOM�™ enabled thermostats, and have screw-type terminals for easy field connection.

Adjusting SettingsTo discourage unauthorized changing of Aquastat settings, a procedure to enter the ADJUSTMENT mode is required. To enter the ADJUSTMENT mode, press the UP, DOWN, and I buttons (Refer to Fig. 5) simultaneously for three seconds. Press the I button until the feature requiring adjustment is displayed:

* Settings available for adjustment on the 3-digit display only if a W8735Y1000 or W8735S1000 Outdoor Reset Kit is installed.

**Settings available for adjustment only when the W8735Y1000 or W8735S1000 Outdoor Reset Kit is NOT installed.

Then press the UP and/or DOWN buttons to move the set point to the desired value, to change between °F and °C, or to enable (On) or disable (Off) the External Low Limit. After 60 seconds without any button inputs, the control will automatically return to the RUN mode.

DisplayIn the RUN mode, the Aquastat will flash �“bt�” (boiler temp) followed by the temperature (i.e., 220), followed by °F or °C.

To read boiler settings, press the I key to read the parameter of interest. For example, press I and High Limit (HL) is displayed, followed by a three-digit number, i.e., 220, followed by °F or °C. Pressing the I button again (on L7224 models) will display the Low Limit (LL) followed by a three-digit number and the corresponding degree designator. See Display Readout, Table 4.

OperationThe L7224 and L7248 models can be in any of four operational states: Normal, High Limit, Low Limit and Error. The controller moves back and forth from High Limit to Normal to Low Limit state as part of normal operation. Only devices having High Limit settings are restricted to the High Limit and Normal states. However, the controller will enter the Error state when there is an abnormal condition. The operating states are:

1. Normal: Boiler temperature went below the High Limit setting (minus the Differential) and has not exceeded the High Limit setting; or, the boiler temperature went above the Low Limit setting and

has not gone below the Low Limit setting (minus the Differential); or, ZR input is not powered with 120 Vac (only L7248L with ELL set On).

2. High Limit: Boiler temperature went above the High Limit setting and has not dropped below the High Limit setting (minus the Differential).

3. Low Limit: Boiler temperature went below the Low Limit setting (minus the Low Limit Differential) and has not gone above the Low Limit setting; or, ZR input is powered with 120 Vac (only L7248L with ELL set On).

4. Error: The controller has detected an error condition (e.g., open sensor) and has shut down the burner output. The ZC output is energized. The controller continues to monitor the system and automatically restarts if the error condition clears. Refer toTable 4.

The operating sequence for the L7224/L7248 is shown inTable 6�–9.

High Limit ControllerThe High Limit opens and turns off the burner when the water temperature reaches the setpoint. The High Limit automatically resets after the water temperature drops past the setpoint and through the Differential. The L7248 models have High Limit Differential presets of 15 °F (8 °C). The L7224 models have High Limit Differential presets of 10 °F (6 °C).

Low Limit and Circulator ControllerOn a temperature rise, with the adjustable Differential at the default setting of 10 °F (6 °C), the burner circuit breaks and the circulator circuit makes (assuming no call for heat is present) at the Low Limit setpoint. On a temperature drop of 10 °F (6 °C) below the Low Limit setpoint, the burner circuit makes and the circulator circuit breaks. See Fig. 7.

Fig. 7. Setpoints and differentials.

Anti Short-Cycle FeatureThe Anti Short-Cycle feature allows for field selection of a delay time between burner cycles. Should a call for heat occur following the end of the previous heat cycle and before the Anti Short-Cycle delay time is expired, the circulator will be allowed to run, but the burner will be held off until the time has elapsed. The range of the Anti Short-Cycle time is from OFF to five minutes.

NOTE: This feature is blocked if a Domestic Hot Water demand occurs. Domestic Hot Water demands are serviced immediately, without any delay.

NOTE: When the Aquastat is connected to the oil primary and/or thermostat via the EnviraCOM bus, the Anti Short-Cycle time does not apply to recycle events such as loss of airflow or flame. It applies only to loss of demand.

ZR-Domestic Hot Water (DHW) RequestThe ZR terminal can be selected to service an indirect water heater heat request. This parameter is set via the 3 digit display (see Adjusting Settings section of this document). A heat request via the ZR terminal will have priority over all other features such as the Anti Short-Cycle feature or those enabled by the Outdoor Reset Module (See form #69-2335 for more information).

Frost ProtectionThe Frost Protection function protects the boiler and potentially the boiler plumbing from possible damage which may occur should the water in the system begin to freeze. The Frost Protection feature is enabled only in the L7248 (cold start models). The feature default setting is enabled (ON), but can be disabled using the 3-digit display. See �“Adjusting Settings�” on page 5.

When the Boiler temperature drops to the Frost Protection Limit temperature (fixed 40 °F), the burner is forced on. The Circulator and ZC outputs remain in the same state as before the Frost Protection function was enabled. They can be either ON or OFF during the Frost Protection cycle.

When the Boiler temperature reaches the Frost Protection Limit temperature plus a fixed 10 °F differential, the burner is turned off unless requested to stay on due to a different demand.

Thermal Purge OperationThe intent of thermal purge is to insure usable residual heat in the boiler is circulated until it is sufficiently depleted from the system before the burner is allowed to fire. To that end, on a call for heat, the burner is held off while the circulator runs until the boiler temperature drops to the thermal purge temperature or a time delay is exceeded. Both of these parameters are adjustable. When the boiler temperature reaches the thermal purge temperature, the burner is allowed to fire. Thermal purge is only applied to cold start Aquastat models (L7248) and will not interfere with domestic hot water call for heat or boilers equipped with Honeywell outdoor reset accessories. For warm start models where a Low Limit must be set, thermal purge is not applied.

In addition to the thermal purge temperature and thermal purge time delay parameters, two other conditions release the Aquastat from thermal purge in order to maintain comfort in the space:�• The boiler temperature has dropped 10 °F from the

beginning of the thermal purge.�• Boiler temperature is cooling at a rate greater than

5 °F/minute while the circulator is running.The thermal purge feature applies to single zone as well as multi-zone applications.

Thermal Purge SettingsSome thermal purge parameters are configurable using the 3 digit display. See �“Adjusting Settings�” on page 5. Thermal purge may be disabled by setting the thermal purge temperature limit to "OFF".

Thermal Purge and Domestic Hot WaterThe thermal purge feature is automatically disabled whenever there is a call for domestic hot water either from the Zr terminal or from the DHW Module to insure hot water is available in a timely manner. See �“ZR-Domestic Hot Water (DHW) Request�” on page 7.

Pump CyclingThe Pump Cycling feature exercises the system pump for 15 seconds after a non-adjustable five day period of no boiler activity. The Pump Cycling feature default setting is enabled (ON) but can be disabled (OFF) using the 3-digit display. See �“Adjusting Settings�” on page 5.

CHECKOUTPut the system into operation and observe at least one complete cycle to make sure that the controller operates properly. See TROUBLESHOOTING section to use LED to assist in determining system operation.

TROUBLESHOOTINGWhen attempting to diagnose system performance, reference to the LED display can help to identify specific areas not working properly. The LED display will scroll Err, followed by a digit (1-8). Refer to Table 10 and 11 for a description of each error and suggested actions.

a Warnings are generated to enunciate the system is not operating optimally, but the Aquastat is still operating and maintaining boiler temperature. In the instance where an Outdoor Reset Module is used, the warnings may indicate a reset curve setting error one or more features is not running optimally, and the Aquastat is reverting to default settings or has stopped running the Outdoor Reset algorithms. The warnings are cleared when the issue(s) is resolved.

b To clear Err 8 condition, depress and hold all three user keys simultaneously for 60 seconds. Err 8 condition clears and display returns to normal. Err 8 condition is designed to catch welded relays on the Aquastat and will normally only occur near end of life for the control. If Err 8 condition has occurred early in the controls life, be sure to check for voltage feedback to B1 when B1 should be off and check current draw on b terminal to be sure oil burner is not draw-ing excessive current. Err 8 condition will keep repeating if B1 fault is not cleared.

FIG. 1 FIG. 3FIG. 2

NOTE: In the case of space restrictions, the Fuel Smart HydroStat control may be mounted in a horizontal orientation without anyloss of function. Hydrolevel recommends vertical mounting, when possible, for proper orientation of LED display.REMOTE MOUNTING KITS are available separately for mounting the Fuel Smart HydroStat control box in a remote location.

Each kit includes mounting hardware and a remote sensor. See page 16 for kit options.

STEP 3 Insert sensor ALL THEWAY into well through the knockout (Aor B) you have chosen. (Fig. 3)

IMPORTANT Make sure that the immersion well or Electro-Well™ is installed in the boiler manufacturer’s designatedtemperature limit control tapping.

NNOOTTEE:: If installing an Electro-Well™, pipe sealing compound should be used. Teflon tape is not recommended.

IMMERSION WELLS

When installed on an Electro-Well™ (sold separately), the Low Water Cut-Offfunction is automatically activated. Heat transfer grease should not be used.NOTE: For proper operation, there must be 1/2" clearance between the cop-per well tube and any furnace within the boiler.

See Electro-Well™ models on page 15.

When installing on a standard immersion well, the LWCO function shouldbe turned off (see page 10 for instructions). A buildup of heat transfergrease or other coatings in older wells can interfere with continuity betweenthe sensor and the well causing a false low water shutdown. Turning off theLWCO function will prevent this from occurring.

Fuel Smart HydroStat can be installed on a Hydrolevel Electro-Well™ or on an existing immersion well already in the boiler.IMPORTANT: The control will only provide low water cut-off protection when installed on an Electro-Well™.

OPTIONAL FEATURES

HOW THERMAL TARGETING WORKS

SYSTEM START-UP

Thermal Targeting technology analyzes thermostat activity and continually evaluates how much heat the house requires. When itis very cold outside, the heat demand is high and the Fuel Smart HydroStat will raise the boilerʼs Target temperature to provideneeded heat to the home. When the outside temperature is milder, the heat demand is lower. During these periods, the FuelSmart HydroStat will lower the boilerʼs Target temperature – saving fuel – while continuing to provide comfort to the house.

At initial start up, with the Economy Feature active, the control establishes a 145°F target temperature. To test the high limitshut-off function, the Economy Dial must be turned to OFF. Once tested, restore the Economy setting. If the heating demand ishigh, the target will increase over time to satisfy the heat load. NOTE: • Smart DHW Priority: During a call from an indirect water heater, the control will de-energize the circulator contacts (C1/C2) to

heat only the indirect tank ensuring an adequate supply of domestic hot water. The control will re-energize the circulator whenthe indirect tank is satisfied or if the boiler temperature reaches 170°F. If the indirect call continues for 45 minutes, the controlwill override the priority function energizing the circulator to provide space heating.

NOTE: The Program Mode – – is accessed by turning the LO TEMP dial to a position just above OFF.

Thermal Pre-PurgeThermal Pre-Purge is designed to maximize boiler efficiency. When activated, the control will supply latent heat that mayremain in the boiler from a previous run cycle to the heating zone that is now calling. The control monitors how quickly the boil-er temperature is declining and activates the burner only when it determines that the latent heat is insufficient to satisfy the call.During the purge cycle, the display will indicate . This feature works with single-zone and multi-zone heating systems uti-lizing circulators or zone valves. No change in wiring is needed.

To activate Thermal Pre-Purge1. Turn the LO TEMP dial to access the Program Mode – indicated in the display as 2. Turn the HI TEMP dial to select feature 3. Push the Test/Settings Button to turn Thermal Pre-Purge or 4. Reset LO TEMP and HI TEMP settings to desired temperatures (see page 7)

Degrees Fahrenheit or Celsius The control has the ability to operate in degrees Fahrenheit or Celsius. When operating in Celsius, a will appear in the dis-play next to the temperature whenever the temperature is below 100 degrees.

To change between degrees Fahrenheit and degrees Celsius1. Turn the LO TEMP dial to access the Program Mode – indicated in the display as2. Turn the HI TEMP dial to select feature 3.

MAINTENANCERemove the Electro-Well™ from the heating system every five years and clean any scale or sediment deposits from all parts thatare exposed to the boiler water. After cleaning, reinstall the well using pipe sealing compound. Teflon tape is not recommended.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Burner Will Not Fire See Flow Chart 1, page 13Burner Will Not Shut Down See Flow Chart 2, page 14

Temperature Display ExceedsHigh Limit Setting

Under normal operation, boiler temperature will continue to rise after the control shuts offthe burner. This condition, known as “thermal stacking”, results from hot boiler surfacescontinuing to release heat into the boiler water.

No or Insufficient Domestic Hot Water

For boilers equipped with a tankless coil, make sure the low limit setting on the HydroStatis set properly. NOTE: If the low limit setting is dialed fully counter clockwise, it will shutoff the low temperature maintenance feature and will function as a cold start control. Ifinstalled with an indirect water heater, check that the Zone/Indirect Switch is set in theIndirect (I) position. Verify that the end switch in the relay box controlling the indirect waterheater is connected to the ZC-ZR terminals. This will ensure that the domestic water callsare prioritized. (see “Heating and Indirect Water Heater” on page 4-6).

Low Water Light(Red LED) is On

or Blinking

WARNING: A low water condition is a serious and potentially dangerous condition. Do not attempt to add water to a hot boiler. Allow the boiler to fully cool before adding water.

When Installed on an Electro-Well™When the LOW WATER light is on, this indicates that the control is not detecting water inthe boiler. When the LOW WATER light is blinking, this indicates that the control hasbeen programmed to provide low water lock-out protection and is currently locked out(see Manual Reset Low Water Cut-Off on page 9). Pressing the TEST/SETTINGS buttonafter the low water condition is resolved will reset the lock-out condition.1. If the light is on and the heating system is filled with water, pull the sensor out of the

well and inspect it. Make sure that the metal clip is protruding enough to come incontact with the inside of the well tube. Check that the well does not have excessivebuild-up of heat transfer grease that may interfere with the clip contacting the well.

2. Remove well and examine for excessive residue build-up. Clean and re-install.When Installed on a Standard Immersion WellIf either LWCO LED lights are illuminated and the control is installed on a standardimmersion well, this is a false reading caused by a loss of continuity between the sensorand the inside of the well tube. It is recommended when the control is installed on astandard immersion well, the LWCO Function be turned off (see page 10 for details).

Boiler Will Not Maintain Low Limit Temperature

Check for overlapping high temperature setting. If the high limit setting is set below thelow limit setting, the control will default to the high limit setting and the correspondinghigh limit differential setting.

House Will Not Getor Stay Warm

1. Check for air-bound radiators. 2. Check thermostat settings including heat anticipator settings (common on non-digital

thermostats). 3. Check the Economy setting. The Economy feature, much like outdoor reset controls,

lowers average boiler temperature and can slow or, in some cases, prevent the housefrom coming up to temperature. Move to a lower setting (see “Setting the EconomyFeature” on page 7).

Circulator Contacts C1 and C2 Not Energized

on Call for Heat

Check to see that boiler water is at or above 125°F. On a call for heat, the control will notpermit the circulator to operate if the boiler water temperature is below 125°F (see“Circulator Hold Off” on page 9).

All LED Lights and TempDisplay are Blinking

If the LED lights and the temp display are blinking alternately, this indicates the control hassensed a boiler temperature of 250°F. When this occurs, the control pulses the burner relayand then shuts down and locks-out the burner. The system should be analyzed to determinethe cause of the overheating condition. Check the load on the burner contacts: If the loadexceeds the 7.4 Amp rating, the contacts may have welded. Correct the overloading conditionand replace the control before reenergizing the system. If the load on the contacts is belowthe rating, check system wiring and operation as well as the controlʼs high limit setting. If thecause of the overheating is found and the system is deemed safe, the control can be reset byremoving power from the control and then repowering while simultaneously pressing theTest/Settings button on the top of the control. If the cause of the overheating condition is notdetermined, the control should be replaced.

7 Installation and electrical connection

Installation and electrical work in compliance with any local codes and by qualified personnel only!

7.1 Installation• The pump must be installed in a dry, well-ventilated

and frost-free place.

• Install the pump in a dry place protected from frost and as close as possible to the water in a suction lift application.

• Locate the pump in an accessible location to facili-tate inspection and maintenance. The pump must be installed in a vertical configuration on a concrete base.

• For especially heavy pumps, place a hook or a ring of sufficient capacity (total weight of pump) to allow the use of a hoist or similar device for the servicing and repair of the pump.

• Install the pump on a concrete block (at least 4” / 10 cm high). Consider an vibration insulation pad between the concrete base and pump in locations where noise might cause problems.

• The installation surface must be level and flat: any tilting of the pump could cause premature bearing wear.

7.2 Hydraulic connection• The installation and connection dimensions are

given in fig. 3.- Pump with two bolt oval flanges: Pipe is

threaded (NPT) directly into the companion flanges supplied with the pump.

- Pump with round 300 lb flange have accessory companion flagnes (counter flanges) that attach to system piping in a manner dependant on the flange type (threaded NPT, weld neck etc.).

• When fitting the oval flange, only the bolts supplied should be used. The use of longer bolts might dam-age the base of the pump.

• The fluid flow direction is indicated on the pump body.

• Pump must be installed in such a way that it is not stressed by the pipework. The pipes must be attached so that the pump does not bear their weight.

• It is recommended that isolation valves be installed on the suction and discharge side of the pump. This will save having to drain and refill the system if the pump needs replacing.

• It is recommended that the pipe leading into the suction side of the pump has a minimum length which is three times as long as the pipe diameter.

• A check valve should be placed on the discharge pipe to protect it from water hammer.

• Note: To pump water with a large content of air or hot water, we recommend installing the by-pass kit.

Fig. 2: Flooded or pressurized suction applications• For direct connection to a public drinking water sys-

tem please refer to local plumbing codes for the requirement of a back flow protection device.

• For indirect connection via a tank, the suction pipe must have a strainer, to keep any impurities out of the pump.

Fig. 1: Suction lift applications• To avoid any loss of head, use the shortest possible

suction pipe and keep it free of bends that would increase the piping friction losses.

• Connections have to be correctly sealed: No air entrance is allowed on the suction pipe (2 %). See figure 1

7.3 Electrical connection • The electrical characteristics (frequency, voltage, nominal current) of the motor are mentioned on the name plate: check if it complies with the mains sup-ply used.

• The pump must be connected to the power supply by a solid cable equipped with a grounded plug-con-nection or a main power switch.

• Three-Phase motors must be connected to an approved motor starter. The set nominal current of which must correspond to the electrical data on the pump name plate

• The supply cable must be laid so that it never touches the pipe work and/or the pump and motor casing.

CAUTION! Possible damage of the pump caused by cavitation (boiling water at the eye of the first impellerDo not install in a suction lift position with fluids above 175 deg F (80 Deg C). Please refer to the chart below for NPSH required corrections for suction lift applications above sea level.

Installation and operating instructions Wilo-MVI 10, 15, 30, 50, 80 7

• The pump/installation should be grounded in com-pliance with local regulations. A ground fault inter-rupter can be used as extra protection.

• The connection to the network must be in accor-dance with the connection plan (see Fig. 4).

• The position of the terminal box can be changed a quarter turn by removing the motor attachment screws (if necessary, remove the coupling guards) and turning the motor to the desired position.

• The electric motors used on the pumps can be con-nected to a frequency converter. Strictly follow the instructions given by the data sheet of the con-verter's manufacturer.The converter must not generate voltage peaks at the motor terminals higher than 850 V and dU/dt (Voltage/Time variation) higher than 2500 V/µs. If the value of the voltage signal are higher than those, risk of damage the motor are to forecast.In the con-trary provide a LC filter (inductance – capacitor) between the converter and the motor. It must be connected to the motor with a minimum length cable, armoured if necessary.

8 Start up

8.1 Preliminary rinsing

8.2 System filling - Venting

Two standard cases: - Fig. 1: Suction lift applications- Fig. 2: Flooded or pressurized suction

applications on storage tank (9) or town water supply (10) with dry-running protection system.

Air evacuation process with pump under pressure (see fig. 2):

• Close the discharge valve (3)• Open the venting plug (5), and the suction valve (2)

and completely fill the pump.

• Close the venting plug only after water flows out with no visible air at the venting plug.

Air evacuation process with pump in suction (see fig. 5):Two possible cases:1st case (see fig. 5.1)- Close the discharge valve (3), open the suction

valve (2)- Remove the venting plug (5)- Unscrew the bottom drain-priming plug (6)

located on the pump casing 4 to 5 turns.- Put a funnel into the venting plug port and com-

pletely fill the pump and the suction pipe.- After water flows out with no visible air at the

vent plug , filling is complete.- Screw the venting plug and the bottom drain-

priming plug back in.

2nd case (see fig. 5.2)Filling can be made easier by fitting on the suction pipe of the pump, a vertical pipe fitted with a Ø ½" ball valve and a funnel.

WARNING! Bodily injury!Refit the attachment screws of the motor and the coupling guards.

WARNING! Electrical shock hazardDO NOT FORGET TO CONNECT TO GROUND.

WARNING! Health hazardPumps are tested regarding hydraulic features in factory, some water may remain in them. It is rec-ommended for hygiene purposes, to carry out a rinsing of the pump before any using with potable water supply.

CAUTION! Possible damage of the pumpNever operate the pump dry.

WARNING! Bodily injuryPump under pressure! In hot water, a stream of water may escape from the venting port.Take all required precautions as regards persons and motor.

English

8 WILO AG 10/2006

NOTE:The length of the pipe must be at least 2 inches (50 mm) taller than the venting plug level.- Close the discharge valve (3), open the suction

valve (2).- Open the ball valve and the venting plug.- Unscrew 4 to 5 turns the drain-priming plug (6).- Fill the pump and the suction pipe completely

until water flows out of the venting plug (5).- Close the ball valve (which can be left in place),

remove the pipe and close the bleed device (5) and reseat the drain-priming plug (6).

Dry-running protectionTo ensure that the pump is always primed, we rec-ommend to protect it with a pressure switch or a float switch.

8.3 Confirm correct rotationPrior to turning the pump on ensure the rotating assembly is free of any binding.

• Remove either one or both coupling guards.• Turn the coupling by hand to make sure the pump

turns freely without sticking.• Once the correct rotation has been confirmed (refer

to three-phase or single-phase procedure noted below) re-install the coupling guard(s) before the power is activated full time.

Three-phase motor• Switch on the motor by briefly pressing the circuit-

breaker and check that it turns in the direction indi-cated by the arrow located on the lantern or on the identification label of the pump.

• If the rotation is backwards insure power is off and switch two of the three motor leads and recheck the rotation. Once proper rotation is confirmed a amper-age balance is recommended across each of the three phases – maximum allowable difference is +/-5 %.

Single phase motor• Typically the rotation should be correct on single

phase applications however if the pump seems to lack performance please check the rotation. If run-ning backwards refer the motor nameplate for instructions to reverse rotation.

8.4 Starting up

• Keep the discharge valve closed.• Start the pump• Open venting plug to drain air. If no water leaks

within 20 seconds, close the plug and stop the pump, then wait 20 seconds to allow air to settle.

• Start again the pump.• If necessary (particularly if the suction height

exceeds 16 ft - 5 m) repeat these operations.• If water leaks at draining plug (it means the pump

delivers its pressure), slowly open the discharge valve. The pump has to be primed.

• Check discharge pressure for pressure fluctuations with a pressure gauge. If fluctuations are present please check the inlet conditions and/or re-prime the pump.

• To insure all air has been removed, close the dis-charge valve and the draining plug, then stop the pump 20 seconds, start the pump again and open the draining plug. Do it as long as air comes out

• Open the discharge valve fully or at a desired posi-tion determined by the installation.

• Check that the current input does not exceed the value indicated on the motor data plate.

9 Maintenance / ServiceAll servicing should be performed by an authorized service representative!

WARNING! Electrical shock hazardDangers caused by electrical energy must be excluded. Do not attempt the following unless 100% sure power is off.

CAUTION! Possible damage of the pumpPrior to starting the pump there must be fluid at the seal area.

WARNING! Risk of scaldingUnder some pump or installation operating condi-tions (temperature of pumped liquid, volume flow), the whole pump, including the motor, may become very hot. There is a real risk of burns just from touching the pump.

CAUTION! Possible damage of the pumpThe pump must not operate at zero flow (closed discharge valve) for more than 10 minutes with cold water (T < 104 °F (40 °C)) and more than 5 minutes above 140 °F (60 °C).We recommend to ensure a minimum flow of about 10 % of the nominal flow of the pump to avoid the formation of a vapour lock at the top of the pump.

WARNING! Electrical shock hazardDangers caused by electrical energy must be excluded. All electrical work must be performed after the electrical supply has been switched off and secured against unauthorized switching.

WARNING! Risk of scaldingAt high water temperatures and system pressure close isolating valves before and after the pump. First, allow pump to cool down.

Installation and operating instructions Wilo-MVI 10, 15, 30, 50, 80 9

• No special maintenance in operation.• Keep the pump and the motor perfectly clean.• In case of prolonged stopping, if there is no risk of

frost, it is best not to drain the pump.• The bearing holding the coupling is lubricated for its

total lifetime and does not require any lubrication. It is recommended to grease the motor shaft end as well as the coupling boring with a high adhering grease (type type D321R Molikote or 8191 Loctite for example) to facilitate any further diassembling.

Motors without lubricating devices• Bearings are lubricated for their lifetime and do not

require any lubrication.

Motors with lubricating devices• See instructions put on motor. If missing, lubricate

every 5 000 hours with a grease resistant to high temperature.

Mechanical seals• The mechanical seal does not require any mainte-

nance in operation. It must never operate dry.

10 Faults, causes and remedies

If the fault cannot be remedied, please contact your local sanitary and heating specialist or WILO customer services.

WARNING! Electrical shock hazardDangers caused by electrical energy must be excluded. All electrical work must be performed after the electrical supply has been switched off and secured against unauthorized switching.

WARNING! Risk of scaldingAt high water temperatures and system pressure close isolating valves before and after the pump. First, allow pump to cool down.

DEFAULTS/CAUSES REMEDIES

• Installer la pompe dans un endroit sec et à l’abri du gel et aussi près que possible du lieu de puisage dans le cas d’une aspiration vers le haut.

• Placez la pompe dans un endroit aisément accessible afin de simplifier les travaux d’inspection et d’entre-tien. La pompe doit toujours être montée à la verti-cale sur un socle en béton.

• Dans le cas de pompes particulièrement lourdes, placez un crochet ou un anneau pourvu d’une force portante appropriée (poids total de la pompe), de façon à permettre l’utilisation d’un treuil ou d’engins similaires lors de l’entretien ou de la réparation de la pompe.

• Installer la pompe sur un massif (mini 10cm / 4" de haut). Prévoir une plaque d’isolation aux vibrations entre le socle en béton et la pompe aux endroits où le bruit peut entraîner des problèmes.

• La surface d’installation doit être horizontale et plane. Toute inclinaison de la pompe provoque l’usure prématurée du palier.

7.2 Connexion hydraulique • Les dimensions de montage et les cotes de raccor-

dement sont reprises en fig.3.- Pompe à bride ovale 2 boulons : la tubulure est

filetée (NPT) pour un raccordement direct aux contre-brides fournies avec la pompe.

- Les pompes à bride ronde 300 lb ont en acces-soires des contre-brides qui s’attachent à la tuyauterie du système de manière dépendante du type de bride (filetage NPT, collerette à sou-der).

• Lors du montage de la bride ovale, seuls les boulons fournis doivent être utilisés. L’emploi de boulons plus longs risquerait d’endommager la base de la pompe.

• Le sens de circulation du fluide est indiqué sur le corps de la pompe.

• Veillez à monter les tubulures d’aspiration et de refoulement de manière à n’exercer aucune con-trainte sur la pompe. Les conduites doivent être fixées de façon à ce que la pompe ne supporte pas leur poids.

• Il est recommandé d’installer les vannes d’isolement côtés aspiration et écoulement de la pompe, ce qui évitera de devoir vider et remplir de nouveau le sys-tème si la pompe doit être remplacée.

• Il est recommendé que le tuyau menant au côté aspiration de la pompe ait un longueur qui est le tri-ple du diamètre du tuyau.

• Il convient de prévoir un clapet anti-retour sur la tubulure de refoulement pour protéger la pompe contre les risques de coups de bélier.

• Nota : pour le pompage d’eau fortement aérée ou d’eau chaude, nous recommandons la mise en place d’un kit by-pass.

Fig.2 : Cas d’aspiration immergée ou sous pression• En cas de raccordement direct au réseau public d’eau

potable, veuillez vous conformer aux règles de plomberie locales concernant les dispositifs de pro-tection anti-retour nécessaires.

• En cas de raccordement indirect via un réservoir, la tubulure d’aspiration doit être équipée d’une crépine d’aspiration, afin d’éviter que des impuretés n’abou-tissent dans la pompe.

Fig.1 : Cas d’aspiration vers le haut• Afin d’éviter toute perte de pression, il convient

d’opter pour une tubulure d’aspiration la plus courte possible et d’empêcher tout coudage susceptible d’accroître les pertes par frottement.

• Bien étancher les raccordements avec des produits adaptés : aucune prise d’air ne doit être tolérée sur la tuyauterie d’aspiration (2 %). Voir fig. 1.

AVERTISSEMENT ! Risque d’accident en raison des surfaces chaudesLa pompe doit être positionnée de façon à empêcher toute personne d’entrer en contact avec les surfaces chaudes de la pompe pendant son fonctionnement.

ATTENTION ! Risque d’endommagement de la pompe par cavitation (eau en ébullition au niveau de l’entrée de la première roue)A ne pas installer en position d’aspiration vers le haut avec des fluides dépassant 175°F (80°C). Le tableau ci-dessous indique les rectifications de NPSH requises pour les cas d’aspiration vers le haut au-dessus du niveau de la mer.

7.3 Raccordement électrique

• Les caractéristiques électriques (fréquence, tension, intensité nominale) du moteur sont indiquées sur sa plaque signalétique : vérifier qu’il est adapté au réseau sur lequel il va être utilisé.

• La pompe doit être raccordée au réseau au moyen d’un câble solide équipé d’un connecteur mâle ou d’un interrupteur d’alimentation principal.

• Les moteurs triphasés doivent être connectés à un système de protection agréé. Le courant nominal de réglage doit correspondre à la valeur indiquée sur l’étiquette de la pompe.

• Le câble de raccordement doit être placé de façon à ne jamais entrer en contact avec la canalisation prin-cipale et/ou le corps de pompe et la carcasse moteur.

• La pompe/installation doit être mise à la terre con-formément aux réglementations locales. Un disjonc-teur de fuite à la terre peut servir de protection supplémentaire.

• Le raccordement au réseau doit être conforme au plan de raccordement (voir fig. 4).

• Il est possible de modifier par l’orientation du moteur la position de la boîte à bornes par quart de tour : retirer les vis de fixation moteur (si besoin retirer les protecteurs d’accouplements) et réorienter le moteur à la position souhaitée.

• Les moteurs électriques équipant les pompes peu-vent être raccordés à un convertisseur de fréquence. Se conformer scrupuleusement à la notice du fabri-cant du convertisseur.Celui-ci ne devra pas générer aux bornes du moteur des pics de tension supérieurs à 850V et des dU/dt (variation Tension/Temps) supérieures à 2500 V/ms. Si le signal de tension présente des valeurs supérieu-res à celles précitées, des risques de dégradation du bobinage moteur sont à craindre. Dans le cas con-traire, prévoir un filtre LC (inductance - condensa-teur) entre le convertisseur et le moteur. Il devra être connecté au moteur avec un câble de longueur mini-male, blindé si nécessaire.

Processus d’évacuation d’air avec une pompe en charge (voir fig. 2) :

• Fermer la vanne au refoulement (3)• Ouvrir le purgeur (5), ouvrir la vanne à l’aspiration (2)

et procéder au remplissage complet de la pompe.• Ne refermer le purgeur qu’après l’eau est sortie et

qu’il n’y a plus d’air visible.

Processus d’évacuation d’air avec une pompe en aspiration (voir fig. 5) :Deux cas possibles :1er cas (voir fig. 5.1)- Fermer la vanne au refoulement (3), ouvrir la

vanne à l’aspiration (2)- Retirer le bouchon-purgeur (5)- Dévisser de 4 à 5 tours le bouchon inférieur de

vidange-amorçage (6) situé sur le corps de pompe.

- A l’aide d’un entonnoir engagé dans l’orifice du purgeur, remplir complètement la pompe et la tuyauterie d’aspiration.

- Après l’eau est sortie et il n’y a plus d’air visible, le remplissage est terminé.

- Revisser le bouchon-purgeur et le bouchon infé-rieur de vidange amorçage.

2ème cas (voir fig. 5.2)Le remplissage peut être facilité par l’installation sur la tubulure d’aspiration de la pompe d’un tuyau ver-tical muni d’un robinet à tournant sphérique Ø ½" et d’un entonnoir.

REMARQUE :La longueur du tuyau doit dépasser le niveau du pur-geur d’au moins 2 pouces (50 mm).- Fermer la vanne au refoulement (3), ouvrir la

vanne à l’aspiration (2).- Ouvrir le robinet à tournant sphérique et le pur-

geur.- Dévisser de 4 à 5 tours le bouchon d’amorçage-

vidange (6).- Procéder au remplissage complet de la pompe et

de la conduite d’aspiration, jusqu’à écoulement d’eau par le purgeur (5).

- Fermer le robinet (celui-ci peut rester en place), retirer le tuyau et fermer le purgeur (5) et revisser le bouchon d’amorçage/vidange (6).

Protection manque d’eauPour éviter les désamorçages accidentels de la pompe, nous recommandons sa protection par un pressostat ou un interrupteur à flotteur.

8.3 Contrôle du sens de rotationAvant de démarrer la pompe, assurer que les élé-ments rotatifs ne sont pas coincés..

• Retirer soit un soit les deux protecteurs d’accouple-ment.

• Faire tourner l’accouplement à la main pour s’assurer que la pompe tourne librement sans point dur.

• Dès que le sens de rotation a été confirmé (cf. les procédures pour les moteurs triphase et monophase en-dessous), replacer les protecteurs d’accouple-ment avant de rebrancher la pompe. .

MOTEUR TRIPHASE• Mettre le moteur sous tension par une brève

impulsion sur le discontacteur et vérifier que celui-ci tourne bien dans le sens indiqué par la flèche située sur la lanterne ou sur l’étiquette d’identifi-cation de la pompe.

• Si le moteur tourne dans le sens contraire, veiller à mettre le moteur hors tension, connecter deux des trois conducteurs du moteur et contrôler la rota-tion. Une fois que vous vous êtes assuré que le sens de rotation est correct, un équilibre d’ampé-rage est recommandé à travers chacune des trois phases (différence maximum autorisée : +/- 5%).

MOTEUR MONOPHASE• Généralement, la rotation peut être correcte dans

les cas de moteurs monophasés, mais si la pompe semble manquer de puissance, veuillez contrôler la rotation. Si le moteur tourne en arrière, consulter la plaque signalétique du moteur pour savoir com-ment inverser le sens de rotation.

AVERTISSEMENT ! Blessure corporellePompe sous pression ! En eau chaude, un jet d’eau peut s’échapper de l’orifice de purge. Prendre toutes les précautions nécessaires vis à vis des personnes et du moteur.

AVERTISSEMENT! Risque de choc électriqueIl y a lieu d’exclure tous dangers liés à l’énergie électrique. Essayer le suivant uniquement s’il est de 100% assuré que la pompe est débranchée.

ATTENTION! Risque d’endommager la pompeIl doit être du fluide aux joints avant de démarrer la pompe.

8.4 Démarrage

• Maintenir fermée la vanne au refoulement.• Démarrer la pompe.• Ouvrir le purgeur pour évacuer l’air. En l’absence d’un

jet d’eau franc dans les 20s, refermer le purgeur et arrêter la pompe puis attendre 20s environ pour lais-ser l’air décanter.

• Redémarrer la pompe.• Si nécessaire (surtout si la hauteur d’aspiration

dépasse 16ft - 5m), renouveler ces opérations.• Si un jet d’eau franc apparaît au purgeur (signe que la

pompe délivre sa pression), ouvrir lentement la vanne au refoulement. La pompe doit être amorcée.

• Contrôler la pression au refoulement à l’aide d’un manomètre pour vérifier les variations de pression. En cas de variations. contrôler les conditions d’entrée et/ou réamorcer la pompe.

• Pour parfaire la purge d’air, fermer la vanne au refou-lement et le purgeur, puis arrêter la pompe 20 s, remettre en route la pompe et ouvrir le purgeur. A renouveler tant qu’il sort de l’air.

• Ouvrir la vanne au refoulement entièrement ou sur une position souhaitée déterminée par l’installation.

• Vérifier que l’intensité absorbée est inférieure ou égale à celle indiquée sur la plaque moteur.

9 Entretien / ServiceTous les travaux d’entretien doivent être effec-tués par un représentant autorisé !

• Aucun entretien particulier en cours de fonctionne-ment.

• Maintenir la pompe et le moteur en parfait état de propreté.

• En cas d’arrêt prolongé, s’il n’y a pas risque de gel, il est déconseillé de vidanger la pompe.

• Le roulement maintenant l’accouplement est graissé pour sa durée de vie et ne nécessite donc pas de graissage. Il est fortement recommandé de graisser l’extrémité de l’arbre moteur ainsi que l’alésage de l’accouplement avec une graisse à forte adhérence (type D321R Molikote ou 8191 Loctite par exemple) à chaque montage ou remontage du moteur afin de faciliter des démontages ultérieurs.

Moteurs sans graisseurs• Les roulements sont graissés pour leur durée de vie

et ne nécessitent donc pas de graissage.

Moteurs avec graisseurs• Se reporter aux instructions figurant sur le moteur.

En leur absence, graisser toutes les 5 000 heures à l’aide d’une graisse haute température.

Garnitures mécaniques• La garniture mécanique ne nécessite aucun entre-

tien en cours de fonctionnement. Elle ne doit jamais fonctionner à sec.

AVERTISSEMENT ! Risque de brûlureEn fonction des conditions de fonctionnement de la pompe ou de l’installation (température du liquide refoulé, débit volume), l’ensemble de la pompe, y compris le moteur, peut devenir extrêmement chaud. Il existe de réels risques de brûlures au simple contact de la pompe.

ATTENTION ! Risque d’endommager la pompeLa pompe ne doit pas fonctionner à débit nul (vanne au refoulement fermée) plus de 10 minutes en eau froide (T < 104°F (40°C)) et plus de 5 min au-delà de 140°F (60°C).Nous recommandons d’assurer un débit minimum égal à 10 % environ du débit nominal de la pompe afin d’éviter la formation d’une poche gazeuse en partie haute de la pompe.

AVERTISSEMENT ! Risque de choc électriqueIl y a également lieu d’exclure tous dangers liés à l’énergie électrique. Avant d’effectuer les travaux électriques, la pompe doit être mise hors tension et protégée contre les redémarrages non autorisés.

AVERTISSEMENT ! Risque de brûlureSi la température de l’eau et la pression du système sont élevées, fermez les vannes d’isolement en amont et en aval de la pompe. Dans un premier temps, laissez la pompe se refroidir.

7.1 Instalación• La bomba debe intalarse en un lugar seco, bien ven-

tilado y protegido contra las heladas.

• Instalar la bomba en un lugar seco, protegido contra las heladas y situado a la mayor proximidad posible al agua en aplicaciones de elevación del agua.

• Coloque la bomba en un lugar accesible a fin de faci-litar los trabajos de inspección y mantenimiento. La bomba se debe montar en posición vertical sobre un zócalo de hormigón.

• En el caso concreto de las bombas que sean particu-larmente pesadas, ponga un gancho o anillo que tenga la fuerza de carga adecuada (peso total de la bomba), a fin de poder utilizar una grúa o aparato similar en las tareas de mantenimiento o reparación de la bomba.

• Instale la bomba sobre un macizo de hormigón (mín. 10cm / 4" de altura). Tenga en cuenta una capa de aislamiento contra la vibración entre el zócalo de hormigón y la bomba en lugares donde se debe reducir el ruido.

• La superficie de instalación tiene que ser lisa y plana. Si la bomba está inclinada, se producirá un desgaste prematuro del cojinete.

7.2 Conexión hidráulica • Las dimensiones de montaje y las de conexión se

indican en la fig.3.- Bomba con bridas ovaladas de dos pernos: los

tubos están roscados (NPT) directamente en las bridas auxiliares.

- Las bombas con brida redonda de 300lb tienen bridas auxiliares (contrabridas) para conectar a las bridas dependiendo del tipo de brida (con rosca NPT. soldada, etc.)

• Al montar la brida ovalada, utilice únicamente los pernos suministrados. Si utiliza pernos más largos, corre el riesgo de dañar la base de la bomba.

• El sentido del caudal está indicado en la bomba.• Los tubos de aspiración y de impulsión deben mon-

tarse de tal manera que no ejerzan ninguna restric-ción sobre la bomba. Los tubos deben fijarse de forma que la bomba no tenga que aguantar su peso.

• Se recomienda instalar las válvulas de compuerta en los lados de aspiración e impulsión de la bomba, a fin de evitar tener que vaciar y volver a llenar el sistema si es preciso sustituir la bomba.

• Se recomienda que la tubería que lleva al lado de aspiración de la bomba tiene una longitud mínima que sea tres veces más larga que el diámetro de tuberías.

• Aconsejamos prever una válvula de retención en el tubo de impulsión para proteger la bomba contra los golpes de agua.

• Nota: para bombear agua fuertemente aireada o caliente, recomendamos instalar un kit de tubo by-pass.

Fig. 2: Aplicaciones sumergidas o de aspiración de carga

• En caso de conexión directa a la red pública de agua potable, consulte a las autoridades locales sobre los requisitos de un dispositivo de protección antirre-torno del caudal.

• En caso de conexión indirecta mediante un depósito, el tubo de aspiración tiene que ir provisto de un filtro de aspiración, a fin de evitar que lleguen impurezas a la bomba.

Fig. 1: Aplicaciones de aspiración de elevación• Para evitar pérdidas de presión, es conveniente

utilizar un tubo de aspiración que sea lo más corto posible y evitar que aumenten las pérdidas por fric-ción.

• Aísle correctamente las conexiones con los pro-ductos adecuados: no debe instalarse ninguna toma de aire en esta tubería, 2 %. Ver figura 1.

¡ATENCIÓN! Peligro de dañar la bombaLas impurezas y las gotas de soldadura sin solidi-ficar en el cuerpo de la bomba pueden influir en el funcionamiento de ésta.

• Se recomienda efectuar todas las operaciones de soldado antes de instalar la bomba.

• Limpie a fondo el sistema antes de instalar la bomba.

¡ADVERTENCIA! Peligro de accidente por la pre-sencia de superficies calientesLa bomba debe colocarse de tal manera que nadie pueda entrar en contacto con las superficies calientes de la misma durante su funcionamiento.

¡ATENCIÓN! Peligro de dañar la bomba por cavita-ción (agua hirviendo en el ojo de la primera hélice)No instale una posición de aspiración de elevación con un fluido a más de 175°F (80°C). Consulte en la tabla de más abajo las correcciones requeridas por NPSH para aplicaciones de aspiración de ele-vación por encima del nivel del mar.

7.3 Conexión eléctrica

• Las características eléctricas (frecuencia, voltaje, intensidad nominal) del motor están indicadas en las claves de tipo: compruebe que esté adaptado a la red en la que se va a utilizar.

• La bomba debe conectarse a la red mediante un cable sólido dotado de un conector macho o de un interruptor de alimentación principal.

• El motor trifásico tiene que estar conectado a un motor de arranque homologado. La corriente nomi-nal de regulación tiene que corresponder al valor indicado en la placa de la bomba.

• El cable de conexión tiene que colocarse de tal manera que nunca entre en contacto con la canaliza-ción principal y/o el cuerpo de la bomba y la carcasa del motor.

• La bomba/instalación deben ponerse a tierra de acuerdo con la normativa local vigente. Como pro-tección adicional, puede instalarse un interruptor de toma a tierra.

• La conexión a la red debe efectuarse de acuerdo con un plan de conexión del borne (ver fig. 4).

• Se puede modificar en un cuarto de giro la posición de la caja de bornes: retire los tornillos de fijación del motor (si es preciso retirar los protectores de acopla-miento) y volver a orientar el motor a la posición deseada.

• Los motores eléctricos de las bombas pueden conectarse a un convertidor de frecuencia. Siga al pie de la letra las instrucciones del fabricante del con-vertidor.El convertidor no puede generar en los bornes del motor picos de tensión que sean superiores a 850V y dU/dt (variaciones de tensión/tiempo) superiores a 2500 V/µs. Si la señal de tensión presenta valores superiores a los citados anteriormente, el motor puede resultar dañado. De lo contrario, prevea un fil-tro LC (inductancia - condensador) entre el conver-tidor y el motor. Dicho filtro tendrá que conectarse al motor con un cable de longitud mínima y, si es pre-ciso, blindado.

Proceso de purga de la instalación con una bomba en carga (ver fig. 2):

• Cierre la válvula de impulsión (3)• Abra el purgador (5), abra la válvula de aspiración (2)

y llene totalmente la bomba.• Cierre el purgador sólo cuando haya salido el agua

del purgador sin que se note aire.

Proceso de purga de la instalación con una bomba en aspiración (ver fig. 5): Dos casos posibles:1er caso (ver fig. 5.1)- Cierre la válvula de impulsión ( 3) y abra la de

aspiración (2)- Retire el tapón del purgador (5)- Destornille de 4 a 5 giros el tapón inferior de dre-

naje y antibloqueo (6) situado en el cuerpo de la bomba.

- Mediante un embudo introducido en el orificio del purgador, llene completamente la bomba y el tubo de aspiración.

- Cuando haya salido agua sin que se note aire al purgador, habrá finalizado el llenado.

- Atornille el tapón del purgador y el tapón inferior de drenaje antibloqueo.

2o caso (ver fig. 5.2)El llenado se puede facilitar instalando en el con-ducto de aspiración de la bomba un tubo vertical dotado de una válvula de bola de Ø ½" y un embudo.

INDICACIÓN:La longitud del tubo debe sobrepasar el nivel del purgador como mínimo 2 pulgadas (50 mm).- Cierre la válvula de impulsión (3), abra la válvula

de aspiración (2).- Abra la válvula de bola y el purgador.- Desenrosque de 4 a 5 giros el tapón de drenaje y

antibloqueo (6).- Llene completamente la bomba y el conducto de

aspiración hasta que salga agua por el purgador (5).

- Cierre la válvula de bola (puede quedarse insta-lado) retire el tubo, cierre el purgador (5) y ator-nille el tapón de drenaje antibloqueo (6).

Protección de marcha en secoPara garantizar que la bomba recibe siempre agua, le recomendamos que la proteja mediante un presos-tato o un interruptor de flotador.

8.3 Confirme rotación correctaAntes de arrancar la bomba, asegúrese de que los elementos rotatorios están carente de cualquier tipo de obstrucción.

• Retire o uno o ambos protectores de conexión.• Gire la conexión a mano para asegurarse de que la

bomba gire libremente sin obstáculos.• Una vez la rotación correcta ha sido confirmada

(refiérase al procedimiento trifásico o monofásico abajo indicado) reinstala el protector o los protecto-res de conexión antes de que la corriente sea acti-vada completamente.

Motor trifásico• Conecte el motor pulsando brevemente el inte-

rruptor y compruebe que gire correctamente en el sentido indicado por la flecha en la indicación luminosa o en la placa de identificación de la bomba.

• Si gira en el sentido contrario, asegúrese de que la corriente está desconectada, cambie la conexión de dos cables del motor y vuelva a comprobar el sentido de la rotación. Cuando se haya confirmado el sentido correcto de la rotación, se recomienda equilibrar la intensidad de las tres fases; la diferen-cia máxima permitida es de +/-5%.

Motor monofásico• Por lo general, la rotación de aplicaciones monofá-

sicas deben ser correctas, pero si la bomba funcio-nase indebidamente, compruebe el sentido de la rotación. Si gira en sentido contrario, indique el número de la placa de la bomba para recibir más instrucciones para cambiar el sentido.

¡ADVERTENCIA! Lesión corporal¡Bomba bajo presión! Con agua caliente, se puede escapar un chorro de agua por el orificio de purga. Tome todas las medidas necesarias para proteger las personas y el motor.

¡ADVERTENCIA! Peligro de electrocuciónSe tienen que excluir peligros causados por energía eléctrica. No intente lo siguiente hasta que no esté comple-tamento seguro de que la corriente es desconectada.

8.4 Arranque

• Mantenga cerrada la válvula de impulsión.• Arranque la bomba.• Abra el purgador para purgar el aire. Si, al cabo de

20 segundos, no sale un chorro de agua, vuelva a cerrar el purgador, pare la bomba y espere alrededor de 20 segundos para que el aire se asiente.

• Vuelva a arrancar la bomba.• Si es preciso (sobre todo si la altura de la aspiración

supera los 16 pies – 5m), vuelva a ejecutar estas operaciones.

• Si sale un chorro de agua del purgador (señal de que la bomba libera presión), abra lentamente la válvula de impulsión. Debe entrar agua en la bomba.

• Controle con un manómetro si fluctúa la presión de impulsión. Si se detectan fluctuaciones, compruebe las condiciones de entrada y/o vuelva a llenar la bomba.

• Para asegurarse de haber purgado todo el aire, cierre la válvula de impulsión y el purgador y, a continua-ción, apague la bomba durante 20 segundos, vuelva a poner la bomba en marcha y abra el purgador. Esta operación debe repetirse mientras siga saliendo aire.

• Abra la válvula de impulsión completamente o en la posición que indica la instalación.

• Compruebe que la corriente de entrada sea inferior o igual a la indicada en la placa del motor.

9 Mantenimiento / servicioSólo personal autorizado realizará los trabajos de mantenimiento.

• Durante el funcionamiento no es preciso ningún mantenimiento determinado.

• La bomba y el motor deben estar perfectamente lim-pios.

• En caso de parada prolongada y si no hay riesgo de congelación, se desaconseja drenar la bomba.

• El rodillo que mantiene el acoplamiento está engra-sado para toda su vida útil, por lo que no es preciso engrasarlo. Recomendamos que lubrique el motor del eje así como el orificio de acoplamiento con una grasa de fuerte adherencia (por ejemplo, de tipo D321R Molikote o 8191 Loctite) a fin de facilitar los desmontajes posteriores.

Motores sin dispositivo de engrase• Los rodillos están lubricados para toda su vida útil y,

por consiguiente, no es preciso lubricarlos.

Motores con dispositivo de engrase• Consulte las instrucciones que figuran en el motor.

A falta de instrucciones, engrase cada 5 000 horas mediante una grasa de alta temperatura.

Juntas mecánicas • Las juntas mecánicas no precisan ningún tipo de

mantenimiento durante su funcionamiento. No debe funcionar nunca en seco.

¡ADVERTENCIA! Peligro de quemadurasSegún las condiciones de funcionamiento de la bomba o de la instalación (temperatura del fluido de impulsión, caudal del volumen), el conjunto de la bomba, incluido el motor, puede llegar a alcan-zar temperaturas muy elevadas. Existe peligro real de quemarse sólo con tocar la bomba.

¡ATENCIÓN! Peligro de dañar la bombaLa bomba no debe funcionar con un caudal nulo (válvula de impulsión cerrada) más de 10 minutos en agua fría (T < 104°F (40°C)) y más de 5 minutos a temperaturas superiores a 140°F (60°C).Le recomendamos que garantice un caudal mínimo de aprox. 10 % del caudal nominal de la bomba, a fin de evitar que se forme una bolsa gaseosa en la parte superior de ésta.

¡ADVERTENCIA! Peligro de electrocuciónEvite los riesgos vinculados a la electricidad. Antes de proceder a efectuar trabajos eléctricos, la bomba deberá apagarase y protegerse contra una puesta en marcha no autorizada.

¡ADVERTENCIA! Peligro de quemadurasSi la temperatura del agua y la presión del sistema son elevadas, cierre las válvulas de aislamiento por encima y por debajo de la bomba. Deje que la bomba se enfríe.

FALLOS/CAUSAS REPARACIÓN

1) La bomba gira pero no sale caudala) Los órganos internos están obstruidos por cuerpos extraños a) Desmonte la bomba y límpielab) La tubería de aspiración está obstruidac) Entradas de aire por la tubería de aspiración

d) La bomba ha perdido el líquido

b) Limpie la tuberíac) Controle la estanqueidad de toda la tubería hasta la bomba y

repare las fugasd) Vuelva a desbloquear llenando la bomba. Compruebe la

estanqueidad de la válvula de basee) La presión en la aspiración es demasiado baja, por lo general

va acompañada de un ruido de cavitación

f) El motor se alimenta con un voltaje insuficiente

e) Se producen demasiadas pérdidas de carga en la aspiración o la altura de aspiración es demasiado elevada (controlar el NPSH de la bomba instalada y de la instalación).

f) Controle el voltaje en los bornes del motor y la sección de los cables

2) La bomba vibraa) Está mal ajustada al zócalo

b) La bomba está obstruida por cuerpos extrañosc) Rotación no constante

d) Conexión eléctrica incorrecta

a) Compruebe y apriete totalmente los tornillos de los pernos de sellado

b) Desmonte la bomba y límpielac) Compruebe que la bomba gire sin problemas ni resistencias

anormalesd) Compruebe las conexiones con el motor de la bomba

3) El motor se calienta de forma anormala) Voltaje insuficiente

b) La bomba esa obstruida por cuerpos extraños

a) Compruebe la tensión en los bornes del motor. Debe estar entre ± 10 % en 50 Hz y ± 6 % en 60 Hz de la tensión nominal

b) Desmonte la bomba y límpiela

c) Temperatura ambiente superior a + 40°C

d) Problema de conexión en la caja de bornese) Desequilibrio de fase o trifase

c) El motor tiene que funcionar a una temperatura ambiente máx. de + 40°C

d) Cumpla lo indicado en la placa del motor y vea la figura 4.e) Compruebe la intensidad de todos los montantes y, si la dife-

rencia es mayor que 5%, solicite a un electricista que la equi-libre.

4) El caudal no es regulara) No se respeta la altura de aspiración (HA)

b) La tubería de aspiración tiene un diámetro inferior al de la bomba

a) Revise las condiciones de instalación y las recomendaciones de estas instrucciones

b) La tubería de aspiración ha de tener el mismo diámetro que el orificio de aspiración de la bomba

c) El filtro y la tubería de aspiración están parcialmente obstruidos

c) Desmóntelos y límpielos.

¡ADVERTENCIA! Peligro para la saludSi el líquido es tóxico, corrosivo o peligroso para la salud, es obligatorio informar a WILO o al operario de reparación aprobado. En dicho caso, limpie la bomba para que el operario de reparación esté totalmente seguro.
