Probe lwco

kevin coppinger_4

steam relacement...The HO dryfired and old WM steamer. I opted for a Smith 8-3 section steamer, Carlin burner and a probe type lwco(hydrolevel CG450) packaged set. I added the MM unimatch feeder. With the cycleguard feature the boiler checks water level after 10 min . of run time. As I was there chcking operation the lwco goes to check the level and instead of a clean shutoff of the burner it does this quick on/off cycling thing for 30 seconds of the burner. The watewr level was high enough so any fluctuation of the water line would not effect it and the probe I checked for crud and it was clean...any thoughts? I have started skimming and adding squick to clean it up better...but I will be back for sure. TY! kpc

I LIKE TO CHECK THE EASY FIRST YOU DIDNT USE TEFLON TAPE DID YOU? JUST FOR KICKS TRY INSTALLING A SEPRATE GROUND WIRE FROM THE SKREW THAT HOLDS THE CONTROL TO THE WELL AND CONNECT THE OTHER END TO THE BOILER IGNITION CONTROL GROUND OR AT LEAST THE BURNER GROUND
