IMPORTANT  
APPLICATION  
Use of Outdoor Temperature Reset on a tank-  
less coil application requiring a Low Limit setting  
will result in reduced system effectiveness and  
efficiency.  
The L7224A,C and L7248A,C,L 2012 Compliant  
®
Electronic Aquastat Controllers provide electronic  
temperature sensing in a UL limit-rated control with a  
single sensing probe. The L7224A,C and L7248A,C,L  
control the circulator, oil or electric burner or contactor,  
and boiler temperature. The L7224/L7248 is “Outdoor  
Temperature Reset” ready which is enabled when  
connected to the W8735Y1000 wireless or W8735S1000  
wired Outdoor Reset Kit. Outdoor Reset with the L7224/  
L7248 is intended for all applications except for tankless  
coil systems for domestic hot water. Compliance to 2012  
DOE regulation ensures efficiency is maximized without  
interfering with domestic hot water demand.

CONTROLLER CASE  
Order well assemblies separately; see Table 1 and form  
no. 68-0040, Immersion Wells and Compression Fittings  
for Temperature Controllers. Boilers usually have tappings  
that allow the well to be mounted horizontally so boiler  
water of average temperature can circulate freely over the  
well.

5. Refill boiler and check for water leakage.  
6. Loosen but do not remove the well clamp screw.  
7. Fit the case into the well so the clamp on the case  
slides over the flange on the well.  
Fig. 2. Position of sensor in immersion well.  
8. Securely tighten the clamp screw.  
9. Insert the sensor element into the well until it bot-  
toms. See Replacement Sensor Installation section  
for details. (If necessary, slightly bend the wire  
inside the case to hold the sensor against the bot-  
tom of the well.)  
Flush-Mounted Aquastat  
Replacement  
Turn off all power and remove the old control. Refer to the  
cover insert of the old control to identify and tag each  
external lead as it is disconnected. If the old well is  
unsuitable for the new installation, remove it and replace it  
with a suitable new well. If the old well is suitable, use it.  
10. Turn power ON.  
11. Set High Limit, Low Limit and Low Limit Differential  
to the settings recommended by the boiler OEM.  
(See OPERATION section.) (See INSTALLATION  
steps 6 and 7.)  
Well-Mounted Aquastat  
Replacement  
12. On L7248L models, adjust ELL option to match your  
configuration (see OPERATION section, and Fig. 11  
and 13).  
Turn off all power and remove the old control. Refer to the  
cover insert of the old control to identify and tag each  
external lead as it is disconnected. If the old well is  
unsuitable for the new installation, remove it and proceed  
with instructions for new installation. If the old well is  
suitable, use it.  
IMPORTANT  
Best thermal response is obtained with a well  
that snugly fits the sensor. Insert the sensor until  
it rests against the bottom of the well. Use a well  
of correct length and bend the wiring, if neces-  
sary, to hold the bulb against the bottom of the  
well.  
1. Loosen, but do not remove, the well clamp screw on  
the side of the control case.  
2. Position immersion well clamp snugly over the  
flange of the adapter and tighten the clamp screw.  
3. Insert the sensor into the well as shown in Fig. 2 or  
3. (See Replacement Sensor Installation section for  
details.)  
If the well is not a snug fit on the sensor, use the  
heat-conductive compound (furnished with  
TRADELINE models) as follows: Fold the  
®
plastic bag of compound lengthwise and twist it  
gently. Then snip off end of bag and work the  
open end of the bag all the way into the well.  
Slowly pull out the bag while squeezing it firmly  
to distribute compound evenly in the well. Bend  
the wiring, if necessary, to hold the sensor  
against the bottom of the well and to hold outer  
end of the sensor in firm contact with the side of  
the well. See Fig. 2. Wipe excess compound  
from the outer end of the well.

General  
M32187  
The L7224A,C and L7248A,C,L Oil Electronic Aquastat  
Controllers are primary safety limit-rated devices  
designed for use with oil fired boilers with line voltage  
burners and circulators. Many boilers do not include  
wiring or control compartments as part of the design, but  
are provided with an integral, replaceable, immersion well  
that is the mounting hardware for the Aquastat  
Controllers. Wiring to the other controls is done through  
flexible metal conduit.  
Fig. 5. Circuit board, showing sensor connection and  
well holes for vertical mount models.  
Fuse  
The 1 Amp fuse located near the transformer is intended  
to protect the EnviraCOM circuit from incorrect wiring. The  
Aquastat will continue to function should the fuse blow or  
be removed though no EnviraCOM communication will be  
possible on the bus and Err 6 will be displayed. See  
Table 10.  
For boilers that do include a remotely (flush) mounted  
control, the wiring may be completed with conduit or  
routed behind the boiler sheet metal.

Operation  
M23364  
The L7224 and L7248 models can be in any of four  
operational states: Normal, High Limit, Low Limit and  
Error. The controller moves back and forth from  
High Limit to Normal to Low Limit state as part of normal  
operation. Only devices having High Limit settings are  
restricted to the High Limit and Normal states. However,  
the controller will enter the Error state when there is an  
abnormal condition. The operating states are:  
Fig. 7. Setpoints and differentials.  
Anti Short-Cycle Feature  
The Anti Short-Cycle feature allows for field selection of a  
delay time between burner cycles. Should a call for heat  
occur following the end of the previous heat cycle and  
before the Anti Short-Cycle delay time is expired, the  
circulator will be allowed to run, but the burner will be held  
off until the time has elapsed. The range of the Anti Short-  
Cycle time is from OFF to five minutes.  
1. Normal: Boiler temperature went below the High  
Limit setting (minus the Differential) and has not  
exceeded the High Limit setting; or, the boiler  
temperature went above the Low Limit setting and

NOTE: This feature is blocked if a Domestic Hot  
When the Boiler temperature reaches the Frost Protection  
Limit temperature plus a fixed 10 °F differential, the burner  
is turned off unless requested to stay on due to a different  
demand.  
Water demand occurs. Domestic Hot Water  
demands are serviced immediately, without  
any delay.  
NOTE: When the Aquastat is connected to the oil  
primary and/or thermostat via the EnviraCOM  
bus, the Anti Short-Cycle time does not apply  
to recycle events such as loss of airflow or  
flame. It applies only to loss of demand.  
Thermal Purge Operation  
The intent of thermal purge is to insure usable residual  
heat in the boiler is circulated until it is sufficiently  
depleted from the system before the burner is allowed to  
fire. To that end, on a call for heat, the burner is held off  
while the circulator runs until the boiler temperature drops  
to the thermal purge temperature or a time delay is  
exceeded. Both of these parameters are adjustable.  
When the boiler temperature reaches the thermal purge  
temperature, the burner is allowed to fire. Thermal purge  
is only applied to cold start Aquastat models (L7248) and  
will not interfere with domestic hot water call for heat or  
boilers equipped with Honeywell outdoor reset  
ZR-Domestic Hot Water (DHW)  
Request  
The ZR terminal can be selected to service an indirect  
water heater heat request. This parameter is set via the 3  
digit display (see Adjusting Settings section of this  
document). A heat request via the ZR terminal will have  
priority over all other features such as the Anti Short-  
Cycle feature or those enabled by the Outdoor Reset  
Module (See form #69-2335 for more information).  
accessories. For warm start models where a Low Limit  
must be set, thermal purge is not applied.  
In addition to the thermal purge temperature and thermal  
purge time delay parameters, two other conditions release  
the Aquastat from thermal purge in order to maintain  
comfort in the space:  
Frost Protection  
The Frost Protection function protects the boiler and  
potentially the boiler plumbing from possible damage  
which may occur should the water in the system begin to  
freeze. The Frost Protection feature is enabled only in the  
L7248 (cold start models). The feature default setting is  
enabled (ON), but can be disabled using the 3-digit  
display. See “Adjusting Settings” on page 5.  
The boiler temperature has dropped 10 °F from the  
beginning of the thermal purge.  
Boiler temperature is cooling at a rate greater than  
5 °F/minute while the circulator is running.  
The thermal purge feature applies to single zone as well  
as multi-zone applications.  
When the Boiler temperature drops to the Frost Protection  
Limit temperature (fixed 40 °F), the burner is forced on.  
The Circulator and ZC outputs remain in the same state  
as before the Frost Protection function was enabled.  
They can be either ON or OFF during the Frost Protection  
cycle.  
Thermal Purge Settings  
Some thermal purge parameters are configurable using  
the 3 digit display. See “Adjusting Settings” on page 5.  
Thermal purge may be disabled by setting the thermal  
purge temperature limit to "OFF".

whenever there is a call for domestic hot water either from  
the Zr terminal or from the DHW Module to insure hot  
water is available in a timely manner. See “ZR-Domestic  
Hot Water (DHW) Request” on page 7.  
CHECKOUT  
Put the system into operation and observe at least one  
complete cycle to make sure that the controller operates  
properly. See TROUBLESHOOTING section to use LED  
to assist in determining system operation.  
TROUBLESHOOTING  
When attempting to diagnose system performance,  
reference to the LED display can help to identify specific  
areas not working properly. The LED display will scroll  
Err, followed by a digit (1-8). Refer to Table 10 and 11 for  
a description of each error and suggested actions.  
Pump Cycling  
The Pump Cycling feature exercises the system pump for  
15 seconds after a non-adjustable five day period of no  
boiler activity. The Pump Cycling feature default setting is  
enabled (ON) but can be disabled (OFF) using the 3-digit  
display. See “Adjusting Settings” on page 5.

Warnings are generated to enunciate the system is not operating optimally, but the Aquastat is still operating and  
maintaining boiler temperature. In the instance where an Outdoor Reset Module is used, the warnings may indicate a  
reset curve setting error one or more features is not running optimally, and the Aquastat is reverting to default settings  
or has stopped running the Outdoor Reset algorithms. The warnings are cleared when the issue(s) is resolved.  
To clear Err 8 condition, depress and hold all three user keys simultaneously for 60 seconds. Err 8 condition clears  
and display returns to normal. Err 8 condition is designed to catch welded relays on the Aquastat and will normally  
only occur near end of life for the control. If Err 8 condition has occurred early in the controls life, be sure to check for  
voltage feedback to B1 when B1 should be off and check current draw on b terminal to be sure oil burner is not draw-  
ing excessive current. Err 8 condition will keep repeating if B1 fault is not cleared.
