isolating 2 zone control valves from the T-T connections on a new boiler

Just installed a new Weil-McLain CGa-5 boiler. Using two (ancient, but working with previous boiler) White-Rodgers zone valves - 24 vac. There are two red, one white, wires coming off them to attach to the boiler. I caught the repeated warning in the boiler instructions to NOT attach the 3 wire valves directly to the T-T leads. It stated I must have an "isolation relay" between the two. When I search to buy one, I am faced with telling them exactly what kind of relay I need. Can you help me to know exactly which kind to ask for? Voltage... DO/DC... or something different? My knowledge is obviously limited.

RIBU1C, it will accept the 24vac you have running the valves. Post back when you have it, and get some pics of the valves.Serving Northern Maine HVAC & Controls. I burn wood, it smells good!0
