A. CONTROL OVERVIEW
The PUREFIRE
®
boiler control is one of the primary safety
devices for the boiler. It controls the ignition sequence,
temperature limits, circulators and gas flow to the boiler. It
also provides many unique features.
The control provides 8 central heating modes and 3
domestic hot water modes. To provide maximum
flexibility, several special features are also included.
1. Central Heating (CH) Modes:
The P
UREFIRE
