Part Number 550-110-682/0304 9
General
The following sequence of operation applies to all wiring diagrams in this Supplement — both water and steam.
Call for heat
On a call for heat (from thermostat or operating control) —
1. Assumptions: Limit control and water level control contacts are closed and standing pilot is operating.
2. Ignition control checks for signal at electronic pilot. (No signal should be present.)
If no signal is sensed (normal condition):
a. Pilot solenoid opens.
b. Pilot ignition spark begins.
c. Pilot ignites.
d. Pilot proves.
If a signal is sensed (abnormal condition) by the ignition control, the control will lockout.
On failure to establish pilot flame signal within 15 seconds, the ignition control will turn off the
pilot gas valve. It will wait 5 minutes, then retry for ignition. If the second ignition attempt fails,
the ignition control will lockout and illuminate the red lockout light.
This will activate the alarm contact of the impulse relay, providing an isolated contact closure
across terminals A1 and A2 of the CSD-1 control panel terminal strip. The contact rating is 15
amps at 250 VAC.
To reset the boiler, push the red lockout button on the CSD-1 control panel.
3. Once pilot is proved the ignition control activates main gas valve. Main burners will ignite and boiler will
continue to fire until terminated by limit action or no call for heat.
Lockout modes
In addition to lockout on flame-sense failure, the boiler may also experience lockout due to shutdown of a manual
reset control.
The boiler is equipped with a manual reset limit control and a manual reset low water cutoff.
Should the limit control or the low water cutoff lockout, the boiler will only restart after the limit
control or low water cutoff reset switch is pressed.
Steam boilers — Do not substitute another manual reset low water cutoff for the one specified
and supplied with the boiler. Other controls may not operate as intended and could cause serious
operating problems or failures.
The boiler is equipped with a standing pilot as well as an electrically-ignited pilot. Should the
standing pilot thermocouple lose flame sense, the pilot switch box will open the electrical circuit,
shutting off the boiler. The pilot must be manually lighted in accordance with the lighting
instructions on the boiler label and in this Supplement in order to restart the boiler.

For your safety, turn off electrical power supply before
making any electrical connections to avoid possible shock
hazard.
1. Light the standing pilot and start the boiler in accordance with Section
Fof this Supplement.
a. Allow the standing pilot to remain ignited.
b. Turn off power to the boiler and remove the (RED) wire from
terminal TH of the main gas valve (Figure 6, item 1).
c. Tape off terminal end of removed wire and restore power to the
boiler.
2. Open hand gas valve (Figure 6, item 7). Close manual gas valve
(Figure 6, item 2).
3. Check that both leak test valves (Figure 6, items 3 and 4) are closed.
Then remove plugs and insert 1/8" NPT hose barb fittings as shown in
Figure 6.
4. Attach a U-tube manometer to first leak test valve (Figure 6, item 3).
5. Open first leak test valve (Figure 6, item 3) and check for pressure. See
NOTICE below.
6. Close first leak test valve (Figure 6, item 3) and remove manometer.
7. Attach manometer to second leak test valve (Figure 6, item 4 ).
8. Apply call for heat to boiler and check that electronic pilot proves.
9. Open second leak test valve (Figure 6, item 4) and check for pressure.
See NOTICE below.
10. Close second leak test valve and remove manometer.
11. Remove call for heat to boiler. Turn off power to the boiler.
12. Remove hose barbs from leak test valves and replace plugs.
13. Replace (RED) wire to terminal TH of gas valve.
14. Open manual gas valve (Figure 6, item 2) and restore power to boiler.
When checking for pressure at the leak test valves, it is
normal to find a small pressure reading. If the pressure
continues to rise after opening the leak test valve, the
main valve seat is leaking and should be replaced.

This document is intended only as a supplement to the LGB Manual. Follow all instructions in the LGB Manual,
including those regarding final adjustment and boiler operation and maintenance (found in Sections VII, VIII, IX
and X).
A. This boiler is equipped with a pilot which must be lighted by hand. When lighting the pilot, follow these
instructions exactly. The gas supply to this pilot is controlled by pilot switch box.This boiler is also equipped
with an ignition device which automatically lights a second pilot. The gas supply to this pilot is controlled by
the ignition control and pilot gas valve. Do not try to light this pilot by hand.
B. BEFORE OPERATING THE MANUAL PILOT, smell all around the appliance area for gas. Be sure to smell
next to the floor because some gas is heavier than air and will settle on the floor.
WHAT TO DO IF YOU SMELL GAS
• Do not try to light any appliance.
• Do not touch any electric switch; do not use any phone in your building.
• Immediately call your gas supplier from a neighbor’s phone. Follow the gas supplier’s instructions.
• If you cannot reach your gas supplier, call the fire department.
