Flue Sensor
An optional Flue Sensor 069 can be installed on the boiler flue to measure the flue gas temperature. It is not
possible to have both a flue sensor and an indoor sensor installed at the same time as they share the same
auxiliary sensor input.
• Connect the wires to the Aux sensor terminals 8 and 9.

Indoor Sensor
An optional Indoor Sensor 076, 077, or 084 can be installed to measure the ambient temperature in a hallway
or apartment unit. It is not possible to have both a flue sensor and an indoor sensor installed at the same time
as they share the same auxiliary sensor input.
• Connect the wires to the Aux sensor terminals 8 and 9.

Testing the Sensor Wiring
A good quality test meter capable of measuring up to 5,000 kΩ
(1 kΩ = 1000 Ω) is required to measure the sensor resistance.
In addition to this, the actual temperature must be measured
with either a good quality digital thermometer, or if a thermom-
eter is not available, a second sensor can be placed alongside
the one to be tested and the readings compared.
First measure the temperature using the thermometer and
then measure the resistance of the sensor at the control.
The wires from the sensor must not be connected to the con-
trol while the test is performed. Using the chart below, estimate
the temperature measured by the sensor. The sensor and
thermometer readings should be close. If the test meter reads
a very high resistance, there may be a broken wire, a poor
wiring connection or a defective sensor. If the resistance is very
low, the wiring may be shorted, there may be moisture in the
sensor or the sensor may be defective. To test for a defective
sensor, measure the resistance directly at the sensor location.
Do not apply voltage to a sensor at any time as damage
to the sensor may result.
