1.2 Component Description
a. EBC 30 Constant Pressure Regulator
The EBC 30 Constant Pressure Regulator controls the system to maintain the required pressure
set-point. The control regulates draft pressures by modulating the fan speed based on readings
from a pressure transducer (XTP2).
b. RSV Chimney Fan
Thereplacesystemisventedthroughoneormore RSV model chimney fans. If the fan operates
on 3-phase voltage, a Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) is used to modulate the fan speed. The
VFD connects in between the fan junction box and EBC 30. A single phase fan connects directly to
the add-on triac board inside the EBC 30 control box.
c. XTP2 Sensor
The XTP2 Sensor is an external pressure transducer that monitors pressure in the vertical common
vent. The transducer converts measured pressure into a corresponding voltage. This voltage is
relayed to the control to modulate the damper position and/or fan speed, thus regulating the
pressure at the set point.
d. ADM
The ADM is a motorized damper controled by a two-postition (open/close) actuator. The damper
connects to standard B-vent. If necessary, the stroke length of the actuator easily adjusts to open
less than 90
o
.
The actuator includes an auxiliary switch that ties into the burner’s thermal limit circuit, which
operates on mili-volts. When the actuator moves to its open position, the auxiliary switch
closes. When the pilot heats up the thermocouple, the limit circuit fully closes and releases the gas
valve.Thecircuitpreventsthereplacefromoperatingwhenthedamperisclosed.Intheeventof
a mechanical or electrical failure, the auxiliary switch reverts to the normally open position
and closes the gas valve.
