Hot Standby with a Temperature Switch
Introduction
Hot standby is recomme
nded on multi-boiler systems to maintain one or more backup boilers
close to operating temperature. A simple hot standby with an LMV5 is accomplished through
the use of a temperature switch. A temperature switch closes a contact which allows the
burner to release to modulation and exit hot standby mode. With proper wiring and parameter
setup, this simple device will create an effective hot standby with an LMV5 controller.
Table 3 describes the six different load controller operating modes in the LMV5.

If any operating mode other tha
n “IntLC” is used, a contact closure between terminals X62.1
and X62.2 will cause the LMV5 to revert back to operating mode “IntLC”. This concept is
necessary to achieve a hot standby with a temperature switch.
