Reduces installation and operation time;
provides easy access to programming.
Reduces installation time and errors; easier to
troubleshoot and repair.
May be enabled to eliminate unwanted
tampering with controller.
Allows an existing Building Management
System to control the day/night switching
periods resulting in reduced programming
time.
Provides accurate air temperature readings;
eliminates tampering that can occur when
using thermostats.
Allows user to review temperature history for
all zones; records temperatures sensed in
every zone in 15-minute intervals; saves a 24hour history.
For random occupancy periods, user can
override setpoint temperature to day
temperature or to night temperature for up to
an 8-hour period.
Allows user to estimate fuel usage based on
hours run information; records running hours
for each relay weekly; saves a four week
history.
Assures energy savings during unoccupied
holidays


Easy pre-programming of a 7-day event
sequence. Each zone can be programmed
independently of others.
12V DC inputs can be assigned to receive
status signals from burners. Inputs include
vacuum proving switch status, heater lockout
indication, fire safety shut-off and BMS time
enable.
One setting for a daytime temperature and
another for nighttime (setback) temperature.
Night setback temperature can be set for
unoccupied periods to maximize fuel savings.
Easy viewing of temperatures in every heating
zone.
Easy viewing of programming screens. Back
light will turn off when the unit has not been
used for 5 minutes to save on power
consumption.
Quick verification of zone's ON or OFF status.
Display will show if the pump overload has
tripped.
Display will indicate lockout if any burner in
that zone has failed to light.
All heating zones are disabled when fire safety
shut off signal is received.
As an extra safety precaution, the pressure
switch at the vacuum pump must prove in both
open and closed positions. This feature
disables the heater if pressure switches have
been tampered with.
Eliminates need for re-programming in the
event of a power failure.
Independent testing to industry standards.
