Service Manual

Please read before proceeding

Installer – Read all instructions,

including this manual and the Knight

Boiler Installation and Operation

Manual, before installing. Perform steps

in the order given.

User – This manual is for use only by

a qualified heating installer/service

technician. Refer to the Knight Boiler

User’s Information Manual for your

reference.

Have this boiler serviced/inspected by

a qualified service technician at least

annually.

Failure to comply with the above could

result in severe personal injury, death or

substantial property damage.

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).

Any claims for damage or shortage

in shipment must be filed immediately

against the transportation company by the

consignee.

Handling ceramic fiber materials

REMOVAL OF COMBUSTION CHAMBER LINING

The combustion chamber insulation in this appliance contains ceramic fiber material. Ceramic fibers can

be converted to cristobalite in very high temperature applications. The International Agency for Research

on Cancer (IARC) has concluded, “Crystalline silica in the form of quartz or cristobalite from occupational

sources is carcinogenic to humans (Group 1).” Normal operating temperatures in this appliance are below

the level to convert ceramic fibers to cristobalite. Abnormal operating conditions would have to be created

to convert the ceramic fibers in this appliance to cristobalite.

The ceramic fiber material used in this appliance is an irritant; when handling or replacing the ceramic

materials it is advisable that the installer follow these safety guidelines.

Avoid breathing dust and contact with skin and eyes.

• Use NIOSH certified dust respirator (N95). This type of respirator is based on the OSHA

requirements for cristobalite at the time this document was written. Other types of respirators may

be needed depending on the job site conditions. Current NIOSH recommendations can be found on

the NIOSH website at http://www.cdc.gov/niosh/homepage.html. NIOSH approved respirators,

manufacturers, and phone numbers are also listed on this website.

• Wear long-sleeved, loose fitting clothing, gloves, and eye protection.

Apply enough water to the combustion chamber lining to prevent airborne dust.

Remove the combustion chamber lining from the appliance and place it in a plastic bag for disposal.

Wash potentially contaminated clothes separately from other clothing. Rinse clothes washer

thoroughly.

NIOSH stated First Aid.

Eye: Irrigate immediately.

Breathing: Fresh air.

WARNING NOTICE

WARNING

Service Manual

Please read before proceeding

When servicing boiler –

• To avoid electric shock, disconnect electrical supply

before performing maintenance.

• To avoid severe burns, allow boiler to cool before

performing maintenance.

Boiler operation –

• Do not block flow of combustion or ventilation air to

the boiler.

• Should overheating occur or gas supply fail to shut off,

do not turn off or disconnect electrical supply to

circulator. 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.

Boiler water –

• Thoroughly flush the system (without boiler

connected) to remove sediment. The high-efficiency

heat exchanger can be damaged by build-up or

corrosion due to sediment.

• Do not use petroleum-based cleaning or sealing

compounds in the boiler system. Gaskets and seals in

the system may be damaged. This can result in

substantial property damage.

• Do not use “homemade cures” or “boiler patent

medicines”. Serious damage to the boiler, personnel,

and/or property may result.

• Continual fresh make-up water will reduce boiler life.

Mineral buildup in the heat exchanger reduces heat

transfer, overheats the stainless steel heat exchanger, and

causes failure. Addition of oxygen carried in by makeup

water can cause internal corrosion. Leaks in boiler

piping must be repaired at once to prevent the

introduction of makeup water.

Freeze protection fluids –

• NEVER use automotive antifreeze. Use only inhibited

propylene glycol solutions which are specifically

formulated for hydronic systems. Ethylene glycol is

toxic and can attack gaskets and seals used in hydronic

systems.

General Operation

How the boiler operates

The Knight boiler uses an advanced stainless steel heat

exchanger and an electronic control module that allows

fully condensing operation. 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.

How the control module operates

The Knight boiler control module receives input from

boiler sensors. The control module activates and controls

the blower and gas valve to regulate heat input and switches

boiler, DHW and system pumps on and off as needed.

The user/installer programs the module to meet system

needs by adjusting control parameters. These parameters

set operating temperatures and boiler operating modes.

Boiler operation can be based on boiler outlet water

temperature, boiler return water temperature or system

supply temperature, depending on the parameter setting.

Sequence of operation

Table 1-1 shows control module normal sequences of

operation for space heating and DHW operation. The

combined operation sequence is for a typical application,

programmed to provide DHW priority.

Access modes

User

The user can adjust space heating and tank target temperatures

by pressing the NAVIGATION dial when “SETPOINTS” is

flashing at the bottom of the display. The date and time, and

the temperature units can also be changed.

Installer

Most parameters are available only to the installer, accessible

only by entering the installer password (5309).

Saving parameters (reference the Parameter Table -

Table 1-4 on pages 15 - 18 of this manual)

Please note that the brackets ([]) denote

screen status.

NOTICE

To save parameters and exit programming:

Press the RIGHT SELECT [SAVE] key and then press the

RIGHT SELECT [HOME] key.

To enter a parameter and continue programming:

Press the RIGHT SELECT [SAVE] key 1 time to return to the

parameter listings; press again to return to the menu listings.

Remember to press the RIGHT SELECT [HOME] key when

finished programming in order to save the changes made.
