1. Location:
The circulator can be installed on the supply or return side of the boiler but for best system performance, it should always pump
away from the expansion tank. See piping diagrams in Figures No.1 and No. 2.
Integral Flow Check (IFC
®
) option - An IFC
®
is included in the carton. If required, press IFC into machined discharge port with plunger
and o-ring facing in, until it snaps into place. Before installing, press IFC plunger to be sure it moves freely. See diagram below.
2. Mounting position:
Circulator must be mounted with the motor in the horizontal position. See diagrams below for acceptable motor mounting orientations.
CAUTION: Do not use flat rubber gaskets. Only use O-ring gaskets provided or leaks may result. Warranty will be void.

TERMINAL BOX
Disconnect AC power supply. Remove terminal box cover. Thread a wiring connector into npt knockout. Note: To install an angle connector
removal of sensor cap may be required for clearance. Connect hot wire to black lead and neutral wire to white lead. Connect ground wire to Green
Ground screw. Replace terminal box cover.
Remove sensor cap. Slide sensor wires through grommet in sensor cap. See diagram above.
Attach sensor wires provided as shown:
- Delta-T mode uses supply and return (S + R).
- Set Point mode uses supply (S) for system sensor and return (R) for boiler protection return sensor.
Attach sensors to supply and return piping using the zip-ties provided. See diagram above.
- In Delta-T mode, place sensors on system supply and return.
- In Set Point Heat mode, place supply sensor on system loop supply. If boiler protection option is used, place return sensor on boiler return.
Insulate pipe around sensors as shown.
5. Start the circulator:
Note: When power is applied to the circulator it will go through a 10 second diagnostic delay before starting. The LCD will illu-
minate for the first 5 minutes of a run cycle. Press any of the programming buttons to re-illuminate the LCD.
When air purging the system, it is recommended to run the circulator at full speed long enough to remove all remaining air from the bear-
ing chamber. This is especially important when installing the circulator in the off-season.
Full Speed Over-Ride Feature:
To run the pump at full speed during the fast fill, start-up and purge process, press and hold the UP button for 3 seconds until “Full Speed
Override” appears on the LCD display. To return to the programmed, normal operating mode, press the SET button.
“SureStart
®
Feature: In rare cases where a locked rotor may occur, the SureStart feature will activate automatically and rapidly vibrate
to unblock the rotor and continue normal operation.
6. Programming your VT2218 circulator:
Note: The VT2218 is factory-programmed for Delta-T operating mode with a 20°F temperature differential setting. If this is your
desired operating mode and Delta-T setting, no programming changes are required.
CAUTION: Never run the circulator dry or permanent damage may result.
ATTENTION: Ne laissez jamais le circulateur tourner à sec, des dommages permanents peuvent en résulter.
The VT2218 has 5 Operating Modes:
Delta-T - Varies speed to maintain a fixed temperature differential (factory pre-set mode).
Constant Speed - 4 fixed speeds (see pump curves on page 8 to select desired performance).
Set Point Heat - Increases speed to increase temperature (includes Boiler Protection option).
Set Point Cool - Increases speed to lower temperature.
Boiler Protection - Varies speed to maintain minimum boiler return temperature.
WARNING: Use supply wires suitable for 90°C,
AVERTISSEMENT: Employer des fils d’alimentation adeqauts pour 90°C.
3. Fill the system with tap water or a maximum of 50% propylene-glycol and water solution:
The system must be filled before operating the circulator. The bearings are water lubricated and should not be allowed to operate
dry. Filling the system will result in immediate lubrication of the bearings. It is always good practice to flush a new system of foreign
matter before starting the circulator.
CAUTION: To reduce the possibility of noise transmission, be sure to add vibration dampeners to piping when
m
ounting circulator to wall or floor joists.
ATTENTION: Pour réduire la possibilité de transmission de bruit, veillez à ajouter des amortisseurs de vibration à la
tuyauterie lors du montage du circulateur sur des chevêtres de mur ou de plancher.
WARNING: Risk of electric shock. To reduce the risk of electric shock, be certain that it is connected only to a prop-
erly grounded, grounding-type receptacle. Follow all local electrical and plumbing codes.
AVERTISSEMENT: Risque de choc électrique. Pour réduire le risque de choc électrique, veillez à ce qu'elle soit rac-
cordée uniquement à un réceptacle de type mise à la terre proprement mis à la terre. Respectez tous les codes de
plomberie et électriques locaux.

US or Metric Units
The VT2218 can be programmed to display in either US or Metric units. The
default is US units
. To change units to Metric, use the programming steps
above to scroll to SETUP MODE. Press SET and the default US units will
begin to flash. Press the DOWN button to change to Metric. The UP button
will change back to US units. When the desired units are flashing, press the SET button.
7. Reading the LCD screen:
The LCD screen will display important diagnostic information:
Operating Mode - Delta-T, Constant Speed, Set Point Heat, Set Point Cool, or Boiler Protection.
Setting - Delta-T target, Fixed speed, Set Point target temperature, or Boiler Protection target minimum temperature.
Watts - Power usage of the circulator.
GPM - Flow rate through system.
S - Supply sensor temperature.
R (or BP) - Return sensor temperature (or Boiler Return temperature in Set Point mode).
8. Sequence of Operation - How the VT2218 Works:
Delta-T Mode (5°F - 50°F, default = 20°F)
In Delta-T mode, the VT2218 will start at the lowest speed. If it reads a temperature differential (∆T) LESS than its target, it will
gradually increase speed through a 3 minute Start Cycleto its highest speed, until target ∆T is reached. “Start Cycle” will dis-
play on the LCD screen in place of Watts”. If T is GREATER than target, the pump will immediately go into Variable Speed
operation and vary speed to maintain the target ∆T.
Constant Speed Mode (Speeds 1, 2, 3, 4, default = Speed 4)
In Constant Speed mode, the VT2218 will always start and run at the pre-set Speed Level (1 through 4). Only watts will be dis-
played. Temperature sensors are not active in this mode.
Set Point Heat Mode (with Boiler Protection (BP) option) (50°F - 220°F, default = 105°F, BP default = 140°F)
In Set Point Heat mode, the VT2218 will start at the lowest speed. It then immediately switches to Variable Speed operation,
increasing speed to raise
temperature or decreasing speed to lower temperature and maintain the Set Point Heat target.
If Boiler Protection (BP) option is used with Set Point Heat, the return sensor (R) will over-ride the supply sensor (S) and slow
the pump down if boiler return water temperature falls below BP target (for example 140°F). Once the return sensor reads BP
target, the pump will then speed up to reach the supply temperature Set Point target. In this mode the return sensor will read
“BPon the LCD.
Set Point Cool Mode (32°F - 100°F, default = 70°F)
In Set Point Cool mode, the VT2218 operates in the reverse of Set Point Heat. It will start at the lowest speed. It then immediately
switches to Variable Speed operation, increasing speed to lower
temperature or decreasing speed to raise temperature and
maintain the Set Point Cool target.
Boiler Protection (BP) Mode (100°F - 160°F, default = 140°F)
Note: Boiler Protection Mode is designed to maintain a minimum boiler temperature to prevent flue gas condensation.
CAUTION: Do not attempt to remove LCD panel from circulator. Serious damage to circulator electronics may
result.
ATTENTION: N'essayez pas de retirer le panneau de LCD du circulateur. Des dommages s
érieux à l'électron-
ique du circulateur peuvent en résulter.

9. Troubleshooting the error codes:
SureStart Feature: The VT2218 is programmed with an automatic unblocking feature. In the case of a locked rotor condition, it will
a
ttempt to unblock the rotor with a series of rapid oscillating actions. It will repeat this process up to 100 times. If still locked after
100 attempts, “LOCKED ROTOR” will apppear on the LCD. See error code listing below.
Listed below are potential diagnostic error codes which will appear on the LCD display in case of a malfunction.
Testing the Sensors
A good quality test meter capable of measuring up to 5,000 kΩ (1 kΩ = 1000----) is required to measure the sensor resistance.
In addition to this, the actual temperature must be measured with a good quality digital thermometer.
First measure the temperature using the thermometer and then measure the resistance of the sensor at the VT2218. The wires from
the sensor must not be connected to the circulator while this test is performed. The wiring terminals are easily removed by pulling
them from the circulator. 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.
