Figures 9 and 10 are general wiring diagrams.
For a maintaining temperature boiler, Figure 9
should closely match your system. For cold start
boilers your wiring may resemble Figure 10, but will
vary depending on the boiler type and controls or
relays used. It is not possible to list all wiring
variations here. When connecting to a cold start
boiler, always remember that in principle an indirect
water heater operates as another heating zone. The
difference is when the indirect water heater calls for
heat, the indirect water heater circulator must start
rather than opening a zone valve; the system
circulator stays off; and the boiler must light to

reach high limit.

WIRING NOTES:

1. Dashed lines indicate low voltage (24 VAC)

2. Use jumper wire between terminals #1 and #3 on

R845 relay

This equipment must be properly grounded to
prevent a potential shock hazard, and to reduce
deterioration of the anode due to electrolysis. Refer
to local electrical codes and ordinances.
