positive pressure gas fired appliance.
Venting Guidelines for a Category IV Vent
The connection from the appliance vent to the stack or vent
termination outside the building MUST be made with listed
Category IV vent system and must be direct as possible with no
reduction in diameter. The Category IV vent and accessories, such
as firestop spacers, thimbles, caps, etc., MUST be installed in
accordance with the vent manufacturers instructions. The vent
connector and firestop must provide correct spacing to combustible
surfaces and seal to the vent connector on the upper and lower sides
of each floor or ceiling through which the vent connector passes.
In a typical installation, each appliance must have a dedicated
Category IV flue with no other appliance interconnected to any
part of the dedicated flue. Each appliance MUST connect to the
dedicated flue stack using a properly sealed vent adapter provided
by the vent manufacturer. The flues from multiple Intelli-Fin
appliances may only be combined when using an engineered vent
system incorporating an induced draft fan to ensure that flue
products will be properly exhausted from the building at all times.
Failure to use a properly sized induced draft fan on a combined vent
installation may result in a hazardous condition where flue gases
spill into an occupied living space. Consult the induced draft fan
manufacturer to size the induced draft fan and to determine the
diameter of the common vent pipe required for a combined vent
installation.
FIG. 11 Basic Category IV Venting - Horizontal
A Category IV venting system for the flue products is required on
all models of this appliance. A Category IV venting system
operates with a positive pressure in the vent. This positive pressure
is generated by the internal combustion air blower which operates
the combustion process and also exhausts the flue products from
the building. The Category IV flue from this appliance can NOT
be combined with the vent from any other appliance. The Category
IV flues from multiple appliances can NOT be combined into a
common vent. The Category IV flue from this appliance must be
a dedicated stack. The flue from this Category IV appliance must
have all vent joints and seams sealed gas-tight. A Category IV
vent system has specific vent material and installation requirements.

MASONRY CHIMNEY
INSTALLATIONS
A standard masonry chimney must NOT be used to vent the
products of combustion from the flue of a Category IV,
positive pressure appliance. If a masonry chimney is to be used,
the chimney MUST use a sealed, metallic, corrosion
resistant liner system to vent flue products from this high
efficiency appliance. Sealed, metallic, corrosion resistant liner
systems (single wall, double-wall, or flexible or rigid metallic
liners) must be rated for use with a high efficiency Category IV,
positive pressure vent system. Corrosion resistant chimney liner
systems are typically made from a high grade of corrosion resistant
stainless steel such as AL 29-4C. The corrosion resistant liner must
be properly sized and fully sealed throughout the entire length if
the flue is contained within the masonry chimney. Both the top and
the bottom of the masonry chimney must be capped and sealed to
provide a dead air space around the sealed corrosion resistant
metallic liner. Consult with local code officials to determine code
requirements or the advisability of using a masonry chimney
with a sealed corrosion resistant liner system.

Combined Combustion Air Inlet Points
The air inlet pipes from multiple appliances can be combined to a
single common connection if the common air inlet pipe has a cross
sectional area equal to or larger than the total area of all air inlet
pipes connected to the common air inlet pipe. {Example: two 8"
(20.3 cm) air inlet pipes [50.3 in2 (324.5 cm2) area each] have a
total area of 100.6 in2 (645.2 cm2) requires a 12" (30.5 cm) [113.1
in2 (729.7 cm2] common air inlet pipe.} The air inlet point for mul-
tiple boiler air inlets must be provided with an exterior opening
which has a free area equal to or greater than the total area of all air
inlet pipes connected to the common air inlet. This exterior opening
for combustion air must connect directly to the outdoors. The total
length of the combined air inlet pipe must not exceed a maximum
of 100 (30.5 m) equivalent feet. You must deduct the restriction in
area provided by any screens, grills or louvers installed in the
common air inlet point. These are common on the sidewall air inlet
openings and some rooftop terminations. Screens, grills or louvers
installed in the common air inlet can reduce the free area of the
opening from 25% to 75% based on the materials used.
The Direct Vent system requires the installation of an additional
pipe to supply combustion air from outdoors directly to the
appliance. The air inlet pipe must use one of the specified
materials.
The maximum installed length of the air inlet pipe from the
appliance to the air inlet cap is 100 equivalent feet (30.48 m) in
length. The maximum installed length of the flue pipe from the
appliance to the termination cap is 100 equivalent feet
(30.48 m) in length. Subtract 5 feet (1.52 m) of equivalent length
for each 90° elbow installed in either the flue pipe or the air inlet
pipe.
Termination point for the flue products must follow the clearance
requirements in the Vertical Vent Termination sections of the
Category IV Venting.
VERTICAL DIRECT VENT SYSTEMS
A Vertical Direct Vent System is installed with a Category IV flue
and a separate combustion air pipe to the outdoors. The Direct Vent
system terminates both the flue and air inlet in the same pressure
zone. The flue outlet and combustion air intake must both terminate

The part numbers for the required sidewall air inlet and flue cap
kit are listed by unit size. The manufacturer, in accordance with
CSA requirements, must furnish both the sidewall air inlet and
flue cap. Each kit includes the both the special combustion air
inlet cap and the sidewall flue cap for installation on an exterior
sidewall. The sidewall air inlet cap supplied in the kit is sized to
provide combustion air for a single appliance only.
FIG. 33 Air Inlet Cap for Sidewall Termination
The sidewall combustion air inlet cap and the rooftop flue gas outlet
are located in different pressure zones in an Intelli-Vent system.
Combustion air supplied from outdoors must be free of
contaminants (see Combustion and Ventilation Air). To prevent
recirculation of flue products in to the combustion air inlet, follow
all instructions in this and related sections.
Incorrect installation and/or location of the air inlet cap can allow
the discharge of flue products to be drawn into the combustion
process on the heater. This can result in incomplete combustion
and potentially hazardous levels of carbon monoxide in the flue
products. This will cause operational problems with the heater and
possible spillage of flue products that can cause personal injury,
death or property damage.

GAS MANIFOLD
PRESSURE ADJUSTMENT
TRAP
The manifold gas pressure on the Intelli-Fin appliance is not field
adjustable. The ratio gas valve has been factory set with an internal
bias adjustment to ensure a 1:1 air/gas ratio on operation.
Tampering with this adjustment will void the warranty on the gas
valve assembly and the burner. An Intelli-Fin supplied with a
properly sized gas line, properly sized meter and a minimum of 4
inch water column of gas supply pressure while firing at full rate
will ensure full burner input. The manifold pressure supplied to the
burner is a differential pressure. This pressure is the result of the
difference in two gas pressure measurements. A differential
manifold gas pressure measurement should not be made until you
have measured the gas supply pressure. Gas supply pressure must
be a minimum of 4 inch water column with all appliances on the
gas line firing at full rate before a manifold pressure measurement
is made. Use the following procedure to check gas supply pressure
with a manometer connected to the inlet pressure tap on the gas line
connection at the rear of the appliance.

the movement of the flue products over the finned copper surface
and increase heat transfer. Water enters the primary heat exchanger
and makes four passes over the area exposed to direct heat from
the burner. An internal circulating pump ensures proper water flow
over the heat transfer surfaces during burner operation. Water
temperatures in the primary heat exchanger are controlled by the
operation of the automatic bypass assembly. Operation of the
bypass maintains water temperatures above 130°F (54.4°C) in the
primary heat exchanger to prevent flue gas condensation on the
primary heat exchanger surfaces.
Inlet and Outlet Connections
For ease of service, install unions on inlet and outlet of the
appliance. The connection to the appliance marked “Inlet” on the
header should be used for return from the system. The
connection on the header marked “Outlet” is to be connected to
the supply side of the system.
Minimum Pipe Size Requirements
Minimum water pipe connections to this appliance is 3 inch
(76.2 mm) pipe for single unit installations installed not more
than 70 equivalent feet (21.3 m) of pipe from the main system
loop or storage tank. The equivalent number of straight feet of
pipe for each valve and fitting in the connecting piping must be
considered to properly arrive at the total equivalent feet of
straight pipe in the field installed piping to the appliance. See
the piping requirements in the heating boiler or water heater
section of this manual. Consult factory if longer piping distances
are required for a specific application.
SECONDARY HEAT EXCHANGER
PRIMARY HEAT EXCHANGER
FIG. 39 Secondary Heat Exchanger
A secondary heat exchanger is mounted in an inner jacket chamber
at the rear of the appliance. The secondary heat exchanger is
constructed from two glass lined cast iron headers and multiple hor-
izontal finned copper tubes. The secondary heat exchanger is
mounted in the discharge of the flue products from the primary heat
exchanger. This allows additional heat to be absorbed from the flue
products exhausted from the combustion process. The return water
from the system passes through the secondary heat exchanger
before it enters the primary heat exchanger. This allows the coolest
return water temperatures to enter the secondary heat exchanger
before proceeding to the primary heat exchanger. When return
water temperatures are below approximately 130° F (54.4°C), the
flue products passing over the secondary heat exchanger may be
cooled below their dewpoint resulting in the formation of
condensate. The secondary heat exchanger has a special high

rarely below 125°F (51.7°C). The actuator on the bypass valve will
take between a minimum time of 180 seconds up to a maximum
time of 300 seconds to move from a “full closed” position to a “full
open” position or vice versa. Operation of the bypass valve actuator
assures that water temperature in the primary heat exchanger is
maintained high enough to prevent condensate formation on the
primary heat exchanger.
BYPASS VALVE - Synchronization
This appliance contains an integral bypass and circulating pump
that connects the primary and secondary heat exchangers. A
floating-point automatic bypass valve regulates the flow of water
through the bypass between the two heat exchangers. The valve is
a butterfly type valve with an EPDM seat and a 24 VAC gear driven
motorized actuator. The appliance’s internal Excel-10 controller
senses inlet water temperature to the primary heat exchanger and
provides a 24 VAC signal to open or close the valve as required.
Operation of the bypass is based on an assumed flue gas dewpoint
temperature of 130°F (54.4°C) as referenced in the ANSI standards.
The dewpoint of flue gasses becomes the minimum acceptable inlet
water temperature for the primary heat exchanger. Sustaining water
temperatures in the primary heat exchanger above the dewpoint
prevents formation of flue gas condensate on the primary heat
exchanger. The Excel 10 establishes a dead band around the 130°F
(54.4°C) setting of +1.8°F (2°C). This means the actual
temperature can vary positive or negative approximately 2° around
the 130°F (54.4°C) minimum desired setting. The variable input
rate of the burner from 25% to 100% will also affect the position of
the bypass valve as it adjusts to maintain primary heat exchanger
(Bypass) temperatures above the 130°F (54.4°C) setting. The inlet
temperature to the primary heat exchanger is displayed by the
command display and provides the Excel 10 the adjustment point
for the bypass valve. The inlet water temperature to the primary
heat exchanger generally should not remain below the minimum
dewpoint temperature for more than approximately five minutes.
In this case, the inlet temperature to the primary heat exchanger is
As the main power is switched on and/or when the run/stop switch
is placed in the “RUN” position, the bypass valve will go through
a synchronization process to establish a reference point for opera-
tion. After the initial synchronization on start-up, the bypass will
resynchronize in approximately 2 week intervals of normal
operation. This resynchronization will only occur in an off cycle
operation of an installed appliance. During the synchronization
process the Excel 10 controller will overdrive the valve actuator to
a full closed position. This establishes a reference point to assure
quicker response to variation in inlet water temperature. The bypass
valve operates best when it can start operation from a full closed
position. A status point mode of Byp Synch will be indicated in
the Command Display as the actuator on the bypass valve is
overdriven to the closed position for synchronization.

BYPASS PIPING ASSEMBLY
The primary and secondary heat exchangers are interconnected
with a bypass and pump mounted in 2 1/2 inch (63.5 mm)
diameter copper pipe. All access to the piping is from the rear of
the appliance. On initial start up, all air must be removed from
the bypass piping to ensure proper water flow through the
appliance. The bypass piping has an air bleed cock located on the
discharge side of the internal pump. This bleed cock should
allow any trapped air in the internal piping to be purged from the
piping before operation. The bypass piping also contains a flow
switch to sense operation of the circulating pump, bulb wells for
temperature sensors and a relief valve(s).
INTEGRAL CIRCULATOR
FIG. 41 Bypass Valve and Actuator Assembly
The appliance has an integral circulating pump mounted in the
bypass piping. The pump has a 3/4 H.P. motor wired for 120 volt,
single-phase operation as shipped. The on-off operation of the
circulating pump is controlled by the Excel 10 controller. The
pump will start and run continuously when the power switch is
in the “ON” position and the run/stop switch is in the “RUN”
position. A flow switch installed in the bypass piping assembly
proves water flow.
Setting temperature rise on an Intelli-Fin with an automatic bypass
is accomplished by disconnecting the power leads to the bypass
actuator at the multi-pin connector on the rear of the appliance,
declutching the actuator drive and manually closing the bypass
valve. Manual adjustment of the bypass must not be attempted
if the 24 VAC power leads are connected to the terminals on the
appliance, the appliance is operating or if there is any torque on
the bypass valve by the actuator. Disconnect the 24 VAC power
leads to the valve actuator. The declutch button on the actuator must
be pushed down and held in the depressed position to disengage
the gear driven motor that operates the valve. The declutch button
must push in easily without forcing its movement. If the button
does not easily move when pushed, the valve is under torque.
Forcing the declutch button in will cause non-warrantable damage
to the actuator. Torque can be removed by disconnecting the power
leads to the valve actuator. With the declutch button fully
depressed, move the actuator handle till it is perpendicular to the
piping. This fully closes the bypass valve. The position of the
handle is the same as the position of the butterfly in the valve seat.
With the bypass fully closed, all inlet water flows through the
secondary heat exchanger and then through the primary heat
exchanger. No water will flow through the bypass at this time. Turn
the appliance on and allow the burner to come on and fire at full rate
(100% of input as shown on the Command Display). Adjust the
field-installed ball valve in the outlet piping from the appliance to
achieve the proper temperature rise for your specific model.
Adjustment to achieve this temperature rise ensures a maximum of
90 GPM to the bypass and pump when in operation.
Optional Intermittent Pump Operation
On-Off operation of the circulating pump is available as an
option. Cycling of the integral pump is controlled by the Excel
10 controller. The pump will start on a call for heat and a flow
switch installed in the bypass piping assembly proves operation.
After the burner cycles off and the call for heat is satisfied, the
pump will continue to operate for a timed period to remove any
residual heat from the combustion chamber before the pump is
turned off. If the ambient temperature at the temperature sensor
for the Excel 10 drops below 45° F (7.2° C) the circulator pump
will turn on to help prevent freezing of the heat exchanger.
BYPASS - Initial Set-up of Maximum Water Flow
On initial start-up of the Intelli-Fin the maximum water flow to
the two internal heat exchangers must be manually set before the
automatic operation of the bypass begins.

With each micro-step of movement in the position
of the valve, the Excel 10 checks for a change in
water temperature at the inlet to the primary heat
exchanger. As long as the inlet water temperature
is below 130°F (54.4°C) the bypass is moving
toward full open to increase the inlet water
temperature. When the inlet water temperature is
above 130°F (54.4°C) the bypass is moving toward
full closed to sustain the water temperature above
the dewpoint of the flue products.

NOTE:
The Excel 10 controller makes all internal calculations in

The use of a Floating-Point Bypass Valve means that there is no
fixed open or closed position on the valve. If errant hands
manually move the bypass adjustment handle, it will take longer to
adjust to the proper setting but it will still function properly to main-
tain water temperatures.
WARNINGƽ
Moving the bypass handle while appliance is firing can
result in abnormally high water temperature that may cause
sudden relief valve discharge.

BYPASS OPERATION
Failure to disconnect power to the actuator before
declutching or manually moving the valve handle can cause
non-warrantable damage to the actuator.

The Excel 10-controller senses inlet water
temperature to the primary heat exchanger.
A minimum return water temperature of 50°F (10°C) has been
established for each model based on the Btu/hr output at 100% of
rated burner input. The temperature set point for the Excel 10
controller sensing system temperature or stored water temperature
must not be set lower than the specified minimum for each model.
Maintaining inlet water temperatures to the appliance equal to or
higher than the specified minimum temperature setting ensures
proper operation of the bypass and allows all condensate formation
to occur on the secondary heat exchanger. An appliance allowed
to sustain operation at water temperatures lower than the specified
minimum temperature may not provide enough heat from the
burner to maintain water temperatures in primary heat exchanger
above the 130°F (54.4°C) dew point of flue products. Operation of
the appliance at a temperature below the specified minimum set
point temperature will result in non-warrantable operational
problems from the condensate formation on the primary heat
exchanger.
Inlet water temperature into the primary heat
exchanger is displayed as “Bypass Temperature”
in one of the 21 points on the Command Display.

WATER FLOW SWITCH
A water flow switch is factory installed in the internal bypass piping
on all heating boilers, hot water supply boilers and water heaters.
The flow switch is wired in series with the 24 VAC safety control
circuit. This wiring connection installs the flow switch in the 24
VAC safety circuit to prove water flow before main burner ignition.
A factory supplied flow switch installed in the discharge piping
from the top header requires a minimum flow of 26 GPM to make
the flow switch and start burner operation. A water flow switch
meets most code requirements for a low-water cut off device on
boilers requiring forced circulation for operation. A status point
alarm of LowH2OFlow will be indicated in the Command Display
on a low water condition as sensed by the flow switch.

air blower. The valve is a 1:1 differential pressure air/gas ratio
controller. The valve adjusts the same pressure difference on the
gas side as it senses on the air side. The valve performs the
functions of safety shutoff, constant pressure regulation and air/gas
ratio control. Slow opening and safety shutoff is accomplished by
operation of an electro hydraulic cylinder. Full closing of the valve
seat occurs in less than 0.8 seconds when the valve is de-energized.
A visual stroke position indicator is provided on the valve assembly
to indicate the position of the valve seat. Operation of the gas valve
in combination with the combustion air blower allows the burner
input rate to vary from 25% to 100% based on temperature demand.
There is no need for an additional upstream constant gas pressure
regulator internally to the appliance as long as the gas supply is
maintained within the specified minimum and maximum pressures.
RELIEF VALVE
This unit is supplied with a relief valve(s) sized in accordance with
ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, Section IV (“Heating
Boilers”). The relief valve(s) is installed in the
vertical position and mounted in the hot water outlet. No valve is
to be placed between the relief valve, and the unit. To prevent water
damage, the discharge from the relief valve shall be piped to a
suitable floor drain for disposal when relief occurs. No reducing
couplings or other restrictions shall be installed in the discharge
line. The discharge line shall allow complete drainage of the valve
and line. Relief valves should be manually operated at least once
a year.
The manifold pressure is preset at the factory and adjustment is not
usually required if gas supply pressure is maintained within the
specified range. If the manifold pressure is to be measured, follow
the “Gas Manifold Pressure Measurement Procedure” for proper
measurement.
CAUTIONƽ
Avoid contact with hot discharge water.
NOTE:
There are no serviceable parts on the ratio gas valve actuator.
The gas train and controls assembly provided on this unit
have been tested under the applicable American National
Standard to meet minimum safety and performance criteria
such as safe lighting, combustion and safety shutdown
operation.

5 minutes of the last time, it will not require the password again. If
the screen is left in the changeable point screen for more than 5
minutes with no activity, it will automatically return to the first
screen of the 21 points for the boiler/water heater. Re-entry into this
changeable point screen will then require password access again.
FIG. 55 Command Display Password Screen
The configure button also allows the user to access the password
function to enter a password in the Excel 10 from the Command
Display. Use of a password will limit the access to the
changeable points. When located at the password screen, move
the cursor to the first blank space (by using the left or right
buttons on the left side of the Command Display). Use the “+”
or “-” buttons on the right side of the Command Display to either
increase (+) or decrease (-) the number to the desired number.
Then use the left or right buttons to move the cursor to the next
space and repeat this procedure. Once the password has been
entered, push the “SAVE” button. Once a password number
sequence has been entered into the Command Display, they must
be correctly reentered to change any of the six adjustable points.
If an incorrect password sequence is entered, the password screen

OUTDOOR RESET FUNCTION
SELECTIONS
(Optional on Heating Boilers Only)
As an option, the Excel 10 control may be equipped with an outdoor
reset function. This function uses a sensor to measure the outdoor
temperature and automatically adjust the boiler set point temperature
to compensate for colder outdoor temperatures. O.A. Min, Max,
SetPoint and Setpoint Temp are changeable points from the Command
Display. The additional values required by the Excel 10 to properly
operate the reset function should be specified at the time a boiler is
ordered. If specific settings are not available the default values will be
programmed into the Excel 10 at the factory. The operating parameters
for the reset function are:
O.A. Lockout — The maximum outdoor air temperature where the
boiler will continue to operate. When the outdoor temperature rises
above this setting, no heat should be needed for the building and the
boiler will lockout and not fire. The default setting if not specified is
70.0°F (21.1°C). This setting should be specified at the time the boiler
is ordered.
O.A. Max — The warmest outdoor air temperature where the boiler
reset function will begin to function and operate the boiler at the initial
set point temperature. The boiler set point will increase based on a
corresponding drop in outdoor temperature below this temperature.
The default setting if not specified is 60.0°F (15.6°C).
O.A. Min — The coldest outdoor air temperature where the boiler
reset function will reach a maximum boiler water temperature (Max.
SetPoint). No additional reset (increase) in boiler temperature will
occur past this point as outdoor temperature continues to drop lower.
The default setting if not specified is 10.0°F (-12.2°C). This setting is
a Changeable Point from the Command Display.

HOT SURFACE IGNITION SYSTEM
IGNITION CONTROL MODULE
Ignition Module Lockout Functions
The ignition module may lockout in either a hard lockout condition
requiring pushing of the reset button to recycle the control or a soft
lockout condition which may recycle in a fixed time period to check
for correction of the fault condition. A typical hard lockout fault is
a flame failure condition. Pushing the reset button for the ignition
control is the only way to reset an ignition module that is in a hard
lockout condition. The reset button is located on the inside front
control panel. The reset button is active after the post purge cycle
when there is a hard lockout condition as indicated by the Status
LED. Turning the main power “OFF” and then “ON” or cycling the
thermostat will not reset a hard lockout condition. Wait five
seconds after turning on the main power before pushing the reset
button when the ignition module is in a hard lockout. The ignition
module will go into a soft lockout in conditions of low air, low
voltage or low hot surface igniter current. A soft lockout condition
will operate the combustion air blower for the post purge cycle and
then the ignition module will pause for a fixed time period. The
timed length of the pause is based on the type of fault sensed by
the control module. At the end of this timed pause, the ignition
module will attempt a new trial for ignition sequence. If the soft
lockout fault condition has subsided or has been corrected at the
end of the timed pause, main burner ignition should be achieved
with the resumption of the normal trial for ignition
sequence. If the control sensed fault is not corrected, the ignition
module will continue in the soft lockout condition. If the electronic
thermostat opens during the soft lockout period, the ignition module
will exit soft lockout and wait for a new call for heat from the
thermostat. A soft lockout condition may also be reset by manually
cycling the electronic thermostat or turning the main power switch
“OFF” and then “ON” after the control sensed fault has been
corrected. SoftLockout will be shown in the screen of the
Command Display when the ignition control module has gone into
a soft lockout condition.
DIAGNOSTIC STATUS CODES
FIG. 63 Hot Surface Ignition Control Module
This appliance uses a proven hot surface ignition control system.
The operation of the electronic control module for the hot surface
igniter proves the presence of an ignition source much like a proven
standing pilot before the gas valves are energized. The ignition
control module starts and proves the operation of the combustion air
blower, proves the presence of the proper ignition temperatures
from the hot surface igniter, energizes the main gas valves, proves
the presence of main burner flame, provides for soft lockouts on
control sensed faults, provides a hard lockout on flame failure and
controls the pre and post purge timings of the combustion air
blower. A status point alarm of FlameFail will be displayed in the
Command Display on a hard lockout for flame failure.

This appliance uses a single cylindrical burner installed vertically
into the cavity located in the center of the primary heat
exchanger. There is a unique burner for each one of the three
models.
COMBUSTION AIR BLOWER
This appliance uses a sealed air blower to provide combustion air
for the burner and operate the Category IV venting system. The
blower assembly consists of a sealed housing and blower wheel
constructed from cast aluminum. The blower is operated by a fully
enclosed 230 VAC, 3 Phase electric motor. This motor has a 3/4 HP
rating on the 1,500,000 Btu/hr model and a 1 HP rating on the
1,700,000 and 2,000,000 Btu/hr models. The blower housing and
motor assembly is fully sealed and CANNOT be field serviced.
Burners may NOT be changed between different Btu/hr input
models. The burner consists of a round mounting flange welded
to a mixing tube. The top side of the mixing tube provides the
transition which mounts the discharge from the combustion air
blower into the burner. The bottom side of the mixing tube is
attached to a stainless steel perforated sleeve. This stainless steel
sleeve is covered with
a
loose fitting, woven alloy
material that forms the burner port surface. The woven burner
port material is called Alcromesh which is a unique alloy of iron,
chrome, aluminum and several rare earth metals. This alloy is
designed to operate stress free as a burner port surface. The
Alcromesh burner port surface can sustain operation from a blue
flame down to infrared conditions as the burner input varies.
Internally, the burner has a cone and distribution baffles to
balance the air/gas mixture over the surface of the burner. The
burner mounting flange provides a flame view port and the
mounting point for the hot surface igniter. The hot surface igniter
is removable from the burner mounting flange without removing
the burner assembly from the heat exchanger.

NOTE:
FIG. 69 Combustion Air Blower and Transition Chamber
An index mark is provided on the burner flange to ensure
proper orientation when removing and reinstalling the
burner. A properly indexed burner will ensure correct
location of the combustion air blower and adequate
clearances from other components in the top jacket
chamber.
A sealed transition chamber is mounted on the inlet to the
combustion air blower. This chamber contains the gas orifice and
a sensing point for operation of the ratio gas valve. Inside the
transition chamber, at the inlet to the combustion air blower there
is a filter to prevent particulate matter and small foreign objects
from entering the blower and burner. This filter should be checked
and cleaned on a six month interval or more often in a contaminated
environment. An inspection port is provided on the side of the
transition chamber to allow access to the internal filter for
inspection and cleaning. If cleaning is required, remove the filter
through the inspection port and clean with soapy water or
compressed air.
The burner is designed to operate from 100% of rated input down
to 25% of rated input in normal operation. Burner operation at
input rates of less than 50% may include operation in the infrared
state. At input rates firing above 50%, there may be some slight
infrared visible on the tips of the woven burner port material.
This is normal burner operation.

This high efficiency appliance may operate as a condensing appliance
for extended periods of time based on return water temperatures.
Condensate occurs when the products of combustion are cooled below
their dew point in the heat transfer process. The liquid condensate
formed from this high efficiency heat transfer process is mildly acidic.
The condensate will typically have a pH ranging from 4.0 to 5.0 as it
is discharged from the condensate drain on the rear of the appliance.
The internal jacket area where the condensate is collected (secondary
heat exchanger) is constructed from a special corrosion resistant
stainless steel. All materials external to the appliance in contact with
the condensate must be corrosion resistant. This is typically
accomplished by gravity requiring a minimum downward slope of
1/4" per foot to ensure proper flow to the condensate management
system and /or a suitable drain. The neutralizer reservoir MUST
always be mounted on the same level or lower than the bottom of the
appliance cabinet. All condensate piping and connections must be
easily accessible for routine maintenance and inspection. Sufficient
lengths of tubing and barbed connectors are supplied in the kit to allow
the neutralizer reservoir to be positioned to the right, left or rear of the
appliance.

Many codes will require the acidic condensate to be
neutralized before it can be placed in a drain system. The optional
condensate management system consists of a neutralizer kit to
control the pH of the liquid discharged to a drain system. The
neutralizer in the condensate management system consists of an
industrial grade, non-corrosive plastic reservoir for collection of
the condensate. The reservoir is charged with a reagent grade
calcium carbonate. The initial calcium carbonate fill is shipped
installed in the reservoir. The top to the reservoir is sealed and
held in place with two straps. It is not necessary to open the
reservoir before placing the neutralizer in service. The reagent
grade calcium carbonate should fill approximately 3/4 of the
reservoir in an even layer over the bottom. The condensate outlet
from the appliance must be piped to the reservoir inlet. A barbed
fitting is provided for connection to the appliance condensate drain
hose (lower hose). The drain from the condensate drain tee in the
venting system may also be routed to the reservoir inlet for disposal
of any condensate formed in the flue. This would be accomplished
by adding a field installed tee to the hose assembly. Ensure that a
trap is provided in the drain line from the flue to prevent flue gases
from escaping with the condensate. The condensate collects in the
reservoir where it is in direct contact with the calcium carbonate.
As the reservoir fills, it provides an extended residence time to
neutralize the condensate. The neutralized condensate exits from
the reservoir outlet to the condensate trap.
Condensate Trap Installation
1. Locate the condensate trap kit shipped loose with the
appliance. The kit includes a sheet metal mounting base,
two (2) nuts and the condensate trap.
2. Install the condensate trap mounting base on the rear of the
appliance in the lower left-hand corner as depicted in
Figure 73. Use the pre-drilled holes on the appliance to
secure the mounting base to the appliance.
3. Secure the condensate trap to the base using the two (2)
nuts supplied with the kit. The trap should be oriented so
that the barb connections are pointing toward the appliance
(Figure 73).
4. Use a level to ensure that the condensate trap is level on
its base. Failure to keep the condensate trap level can
result in the spillage of flue products from the condensate
trap.
5. Locate the two hoses exiting the back of the appliance.
Attach the larger hose on the appliance to the lower barb
connection on the condensate trap. Secure the hose to the
barb with a field supplied hose clamp (Figure 73).
6. Attach the upper hose on the unit to the upper barb
connection on the condensate trap. Secure the hose to the
barb with a field supplied hose clamp (Figure 73).
When the condensate level in the reservoir raises to the drain, the
pH is controlled to a range of 6.5 to 7 before exiting the system. (A
pH of 7 is neutral. As the pH number increases in numerical value,
the relative acidity of the discharge decreases.) The neutralized
condensate may then be discharged into a suitable drain system
without fear of damage to the drain system. Ensure that the top
remains on the reservoir keeping it sealed to prevent any
contamination to the treatment process.
7. Route the wire connector harness from the condensate trap
to the matching connector on the lower back of the
appliance as shown in Figure 73. This is the blocked drain
safety switch. This switch will shut the appliance off if the
condensate trap becomes too full of liquid.
8. Place the appliance in operation. While the appliance is
firing, check the 1/2" connection on the condensate trap for
flue gas spillage. If spillage is detected, check the routing
of the hoses from the appliance to the condensate trap and
verify that the trap is level.
Condensate Testing
The initial fill of reagent grade calcium carbonate should sustain
neutralization for 3 months of operation. An appliance operating
at higher temperatures will produce condensate at lower levels
allowing the calcium carbonate to remain effective as a
neutralizer for a maximum of 6 months. The pH of the
neutralized condensate discharged from the reservoir should be
checked at 30 day intervals. A pH meter or indicating test strips
may be used to monitor the relative acidity of the condensate.
When the pH of the condensate discharged from the reservoir
can not be maintained above a pH of 6.0, the calcium carbonate
must be recharged. Recharge packages of reagent grade calcium
carbonate are available from your distributor.
9. If spillage is still occurring, shut the appliance off.
Remove the four (4) screws securing the top cover to the
condensate trap and remove the cover (Figure 73).
10. Locate the plastic ball inside the float tube. The ball
prevents flue gas spillage from the condensate trap when
there is not enough liquid in the trap to raise it and drain.
Verify there is nothing under the ball causing it to not seat
properly.
11. Replace the top cover on the condensate trap. Re-install
the four (4) screws removed in Step 9 to secure the top
cover.
Replenishing the Neutralizer
All of the depleted calcium carbonate must be removed from the
reservoir and properly disposed of. Rinse and clean the reservoir 12. A 1/2" pipe connection is supplied on the condensate trap.
thoroughly before adding the new charge to the system. Ensure
that the piping to and from the reservoir is clear with no
obstructions. Add the new reagent grade calcium carbonate in
an even layer over the bottom of the reservoir. Replace the top
on the reservoir, replace the two straps to secure the top and
return the appliance to service. Check the related piping for leaks
on the initial firing after the system is recharged.
Connect a suitable pipe or tube to this connection (see
Figure 73).

ABNORMAL BURNER FLAME
FIG. 76 Flame Pattern
MAINTENANCE
1. Normal Flame: A normal flame at 100% of burner input is blue,
with slight yellow tips a well defined flame and no flame
lifting.
Listed below are items that must be checked to ensure safe reliable
operations. Verify proper operation after servicing.
2. Yellow Tip: Yellow tipping can be caused by blockage or
partial obstruction of air flow to the burner.
CAUTIONƽ
3. Yellow Flames: Yellow flames can be caused
by blockage of primary air flow to the burner or excessive gas
input. This condition MUST be corrected immediately.
Label all wires prior to disconnection when servicing
controls. Wiring errors can cause improper and
dangerous operation.
4. Lifting Flames: Lifting flames can be caused by over firing the
burner, excessive primary air or high draft.
A. EXAMINE THE VENTING SYSTEM at least once a year.
Check more often in the first year to determine inspection
interval. Check all joints and pipe connections for tightness,
corrosion or deterioration. Flush the condensate drain hose
with water to clean. Clean screens in the venting air intake
system as required. Have the entire system, including the
venting system, periodically inspected by a qualified service
agency.
If improper flame is observed, examine the venting system, ensure
proper gas supply and adequate supply of combustion and ventilation
air.
C. FLUE GAS PASSAGEWAYS CLEANING
PROCEDURES:
Any sign of soot around the inner jacket, outer jacket, flue pipe
connections, burner or in the areas between the fins on the copper
heat exchanger indicates a need for cleaning. The following
cleaning procedure must only be performed by a qualified
serviceman or installer. Proper service is required to maintain safe
operation. Properly installed and adjusted units seldom need flue
cleaning.
B. VISUALLY CHECK MAIN BURNER FLAMES at each
start up after long shutdown periods or at least every six
months. A burner viewport is located on the burner mounting
flange.
WARNINGƽ
The area around the burner viewport is hot and direct
contact could result in burns.

D. BURNER MAINTENANCE
Remove the insulation blanket* on top of the heat
exchanger. Note: Take care not to tear insulation
blanket on removal.
The burner should be removed for inspection and cleaning on an
annual basis. An appliance installed in a dust or dirt contaminated
atmosphere will require inspection and cleaning on a more frequent
schedule. An appliance installed in a contaminated environment may
require cleaning of the burner on a 3 to 6 month schedule or more
often, based on severity of the contamination. The fan assisted
combustion process may force airborne dust and dirt contaminants,
contained in the combustion air, into the burner. With sustained
operation, non-combustible contaminants may reduce burner port
area, reduce burner input or cause non-warrantable damage to the
burner.

Remove the sensing tubes from the air ratio gas
valve to the combustion air blower.
Use extreme care when operating an appliance for temporary heat
during new construction. Airborne contaminants such as dust, dirt,
concrete dust or dry wall dust can be drawn into the burner with the
combustion air and block the burner port area. An external
combustion air filter is provided with the appliance. The combustion
air filter is for Temporary Use Only and MUST be removed when
the appliance is placed in normal service. An additional filter is
located inside the transition chamber, at the inlet to the combustion air
blower, to also prevent particulate matter and small foreign objects
from entering the blower and burner. This internal filter should be
checked and cleaned on a six month interval or more often in a
contaminated environment. See the CombustionAir Blower section of
this manual for cleaning instructions. The burner of an appliance used
for temporary heat without a combustion air filter installed will
probably require a thorough cleaning before the unit is placed into
normal service.

of the igniter to the burner flange is reinstalled
to seal the base of the replacement igniter.
NOTE:
When the combustion air blower is removed for any
reason, the inlet to the burner must be covered to prevent
foreign objects from falling into the burner. A foreign
object such as a nut, bolt, wire or other metallic items will
cause a rapid non-warrantable failure of the burner on
operation.

and burner mounting flange.
Use care when removing and handling the burner. Sharp
objects or impact may damage or tear the woven burner
flame surface.
13. Reconnect the power leads to the igniter.
14. Replace the insulation blanket flaps.
15. Turn on main gas supply.
Burner Cleaning Procedure
Remove any visible dust or dirt blockage from the surface of the
burner with a vacuum. Compressed air may also be blown across
the burner surface to clean the “pores” of the woven burner port
material.
16. Turn on main power.
17. Test fire the appliance to ensure proper operation.
The burner may best be cleaned by immersing the burner port
area in a solution of dishwashing detergent and hot water. Do
not use chlorine based solvents or cleaning agents on the burner.
Allow the burner to remain in the solution for a short period of
time to remove dust, dirt and oil or grease laden contaminants.
Rinse the burner thoroughly with clean water to remove any
residue from the detergent cleaner. The burner should be air
dried quickly after removal from the cleaning solution and
rinsing to prevent any oxidation or rusting of the ferrous
components in the burner port material.

K. COMBUSTION AIR MEASUREMENT
This appliance uses a variable speed combustion air blower to
operate the combustion process and venting system. A single
combustion air blower is used to supply combustion air to the
burner. The discharge air from the blower is factory pre-set and is
not field adjustable. The blower and transition are mounted on the
top of the burner. The blower is enclosed inside of the top chamber.
Water Circulating Pump: Inspect pump every 6 months and oil
as necessary. Use SAE 30 non-detergent oil or lubricant
specified by pump manufacturer.
I. COMBUSTION AND VENTILATION AIR
There is a pressure test tree located in the top chamber of the
appliance. This pressure test point tree can be accessed by swinging
out the front control panel. The pressure test tree is mounted on
the front edge of the combustion air blower. It consists of an angle
support and four labeled test cocks. There is one cock for + air and
one for - air, one cock for + gas and one for - gas. Differential air
pressure measurement at the combustion air blower will utilize both
the + air and - air test points.
Check frequently to be sure the flow of combustion and
ventilation air to the boiler is not obstructed. Combustion and
ventilation air must be provided to the mechanical room with
openings sized per the requirements of the National Fuel Gas
Code when the appliance is installed with a standard Category
IV vent system. The optional Direct-Vent and Intelli-Vent
systems use a separate combustion air pipe to bring in
combustion air from the outdoors directly to the appliance.
Ensure that the construction air filter is NOT used for continuous
service after the construction phase.
1.
Open the front control panel and swing the
controls out. Locate the pressure test tree on the
front edge of the combustion air blower. The +
and - air pressure terminals will be used to check
differential air pressure from the blower discharge to
the burner inlet. Each air pressure connection
point will have a small manual cock to attach a hose.
J. CONTROL CIRCUIT VOLTAGE
This appliance uses a transformer to supply a low voltage control
circuit. The voltage on the secondary side should be 24 to
28 VAC when measured with a voltmeter. A secondary voltage
of 18 VAC or less supplied to 24 VAC components may cause
operational problems. A 5 AMP circuit breaker is provided on
the secondary side of the transformer. The circuit breaker is
located on the left front control panel. A tripped circuit breaker
indicates a short in the 24 VAC controls that must be corrected.
2.
3.
Connect a hose from the + air and the - air to each
of the two sides of a manometer. This will allow
the two pressure points to be measured at the same
time. Open the two air pressure test point cocks.
Set the Command Display to a set point which will
fire the burner at 100% of rated input.

4.
As the appliance comes on and fires, record the
inches of water column of displacement on both
sides of the manometer. The sum of these two
readings as they are effected by the two air
pressures is the differential air pressure.
FREEZE PROTECTION
Installations are not recommended in areas where the danger of
freezing exists. Proper freeze protection must be provided for
appliances installed in unheated mechanical rooms or where
temperatures may drop to the freezing point or lower. If freeze
protection is not provided for the system, a low ambient temperature
alarm is recommended for the mechanical room. Damage to the
appliance by freezing is non-warrantable.
5.
6.
The differential air pressure should be 3.5 inches
of water column (+ 0.1” w.c.) when the burner is
firing at 100% of rated input.
If the differential air pressure is not 3.5 inches
water column (+ 0.1” w.c.), review the installation.
Check for proper installation of the venting
system. Review the venting requirements in this
manual for the specific venting system installed
with this appliance. Correct as required. Ensure
that an adequate supply of combustion air is
supplied to the appliance. If a separate pipe is used
to supply combustion air, ensure that it is installed
per the combustion air pipe requirements
contained in the venting section of this manual.
Correct as required. Check the air inlet screen to
the combustion air blower. Clean as required.
Check the burner for dirt or contamination and
clean as required. Recheck for correct differential
air pressure after correcting an installation related

Pump Operation - MOST IMPORTANT - This
appliance is designed for continuous pump
operation when the burners are firing. The integral
circulating pump will run continuously when the power
switch is in the “ON” position and the run/stop switch is
in the “RUN” position. As an optional feature an
intermittent pump control system can be provided. The
intermittent pump option allows the integral circulating
system pump to be cycled on at each call for heat and
cycled off when the set point is satisfied.
The
intermittent pump will operate for a timed period after
the burner cycles off to remove residual heat from the
combustion chamber area. If the operating temperature
sensor for an intermittent pump system sees a drop in
water temperature to 45°F (7.2°C), the integral
circulating pump will cycle on. This flow of warm boiler
water can help prevent freezing.

Location - Heating boilers, hot water supply boilers
or water heaters must be located in a room having
a temperature safely above freezing [32°F(0°C)].
Caution - A mechanical room operating under a
negative pressure may experience a downdraft in
the flue of an appliance that is not firing. The cold
outside air may be pulled down the flue and freeze
a heat exchanger. This condition must be corrected to
provide adequate freeze protection.

unrestricted supply of combustion air from
a
correctly sized combustion air opening or separate
direct vent combustion air pipe will operate at the
correct air pressure differential as the burner input
varies with temperature demand.

(d) Drain the unit completely. Remove the caps from the
two drains located on the rear of the appliance. Open the
relief valve and manually open the bypass valve to allow
air into the system so the water will drain out. Open the
union fitting on the inlet so water can be drained from the
secondary heat exchanger.
WARNINGƽ
DO NOT attempt to fire this appliance without completely
filling the heat exchangers, bypass and all related system
piping. Ensure that all air is properly bled from the system
before firing. Failure to properly fill the boiler and related
piping before firing may result in personal injury or non-
warrantable property damage.
(e) Ensure that the pump, bypass piping and connecting
piping are fully drained.
FREEZE PROTECTION FOR A
HEATING BOILER SYSTEM
(If Required)
HEATING BOILER INSTALLATIONS
PIPING OF THE BOILER SYSTEM
The drawings in this section show typical boiler piping
installations. This boiler MUST always be installed in a
primary/secondary piping system for proper operation. Before
beginning the installation, consult local codes for specific plumbing
requirements. The installation should provide unions and valves
at the inlet and outlet of the boiler so it can be isolated for service.
An air separation device must be supplied in the installation piping
to eliminate trapped air in the system. Locate a system air vent at
the highest point in the system. The system must also have a
properly sized expansion tank installed. Typically, an air charged
diaphragm-type expansion tank is used. The expansion tank must
be installed close to the boiler and on the suction side of the system
pump (Boiler Inlet) to ensure proper operation. Caution: This
boiler system should not be operated at less than 12 PSIG. Hot
water piping must be supported by suitable hangers or floor stands,
NOT by the boiler. Copper pipe systems will be subject to
considerable expansion and contraction. Rigid pipe hangers could
allow the pipe to slide in the hanger resulting in noise transmitted
into the system. Padding is recommended on rigid hangers installed
with a copper system. The boiler pressure relief valve must be
piped to a suitable floor drain. See the relief valve section in the In-
stallation and Service Manual.
1.
Use only properly diluted inhibited glycol
antifreeze designed for hydronic systems.
Inhibited propylene glycol is recommended for
systems where incidental contact with drinking
water or any potable water is possible.
CAUTIONƽ
DO NOT use undiluted or automotive type
antifreeze.
2.
3.
A
solution of 50% antifreeze will provide
maximum protection of approximately -30°F.
Follow the instructions from the antifreeze
manufacturer. Quantity of antifreeze required is
based on total system volume including expansion
tank volume.
4.
Glycol is denser than water and changes the
viscosity of the system. The addition of glycol
will decrease heat transfer and increase frictional
loss in the boiler and related piping. An increased
flow rate through the boiler heat exchanger may
be required to achieve proper heat transfer rates
in a glycol system. Reduced flow in a boiler due
to a high percentage of glycol in the system may
result in boiler noise or flashing to steam.
CAUTIONƽ
A leak in a boiler “system” will cause the “system” to intake
fresh water constantly, which will cause the tubes to
accumulate a line/scale build up. This will cause a NON-
WARRANTABLE FAILURE.
5.
Local codes may require a back flow preventer or
actual disconnect from city water supply when
antifreeze is added to the system.
WATER CONNECTIONS
HEATING BOILERS ONLY
WATER TREATMENT
All boilers have 3 inch (76.2mm) copper pipe inlet and outlet
connections. Installed piping to and from the boiler must be a
minimum of 3 inches (76.2mm) diameter and must not exceed the
maximum specified piping length. Caution: Field installed
reducing bushings must not be used. Any reduction in pipesize
may decrease flow resulting in high water temperatures, boiler
noise, flashing to steam and non-warrantable heat exchanger
damage.
In hard water areas, water treatment should be used to reduce the
introduction of minerals to the system. Minerals in the water can
collect in the heat exchanger tubes and cause noise on operation.
Excessive build up of minerals in the heat exchanger can cause
a non-warrantable failure.

PIPING LENGTHS
PRIMARY LOOP CIRCULATOR
PUMP SPECIFICATIONS
Maximum operating pressure for the pump must exceed
system operating pressure.
The boiler’s integral circulator provides the water flow from the
primary boiler piping, through the boiler and back to the primary
system. Pipe diameter and length are critical to ensure proper flow
through the boiler. A 3 inch (76.2 mm) diameter pipe installed from
the primary system to the boiler inlet must not exceed 70 equivalent
feet (21.2 m) in length. The return piping from the boiler back to
the primary boiler piping system must also not exceed 70
equivalent feet (21.2 m) in length. Subtract 8 feet (2.9 m) of
equivalent length for each 90° elbow installed in the piping to and
from the boiler.
1.
2.
3.
4.
Maximum water temperature should not exceed
nameplate rating.
Cast iron circulators may be used for closed loop
systems.
A properly sized expansion tank must be installed
near the boiler and on the suction side of the pump.
The secondary loop piping to and from the boiler must have a fully
ported ball valve installed in both the supply and return side piping.
The ball valves must be the same diameter as the installed piping.
The ball valve in the piping supplying water to the boiler will only
be used as a service valve. The ball valve installed in the discharge
from the boiler back to the primary system will be used to adjust
boiler flow and temperature rise to ensure proper performance.
CIRCULATOR PUMP OPERATION
(Heating Boilers Only)
The boiler pump should run continuously when the boiler is firing.
External wire leads are furnished in the electrical junction box to
allow separate power supplies to the pump and boiler controls or the
two circuits (pump and controls) can be combined for connection
to one 120 VAC, 20 AMP circuit for both. As shipped from the
factory, the control system will turn on the boiler pump when the
main power switch is placed in the “ON” position and the Run/Stop
switch is in the “RUN” position.
BOILER CIRCULATOR PUMP
LIMITATIONS
The integral circulator provided on this boiler WILL NOT function
as a main system circulator. This boiler was designed for installation
in a primary/secondary piping system. The boiler’s integral pump is
only sized to provide flow in the secondary loop, from the primary
system, through the boiler and back to a primary boiler system piping.
Pipe diameter and length are critical to ensure proper flow through
the boiler and secondary piping. The boiler primary piping system
must have a primary circulator installed in the main system loop to
carry the heated boiler water to the point of use in the main system.
INTERMITTENT PUMP OPERATION
(Optional)
An intermittent pump operation feature is available as an option.
When equipped with this option, the boiler’s integral circulating
pump will cycle on at each call for heat, before the burner fires.
The pump will continue to operate while the burner is firing. The
pump will run for a 30 second period after the temperature set point
is satisfied. This will remove any residual heat from the
combustion chamber before turning the pump off. See wiring dia-
gram shipped with the unit.
This is a low mass, high efficiency hot water boiler which must have
adequate flow for quiet, efficient operation. The internal circulating
pump will provide this flow for a properly installed secondary loop
to the boiler. Pipe diameter and length are critical to ensure proper
flow through the boiler and secondary piping. Temperature rise is the
difference in boiler inlet temperature and boiler outlet temperature
while the boiler is firing. Example: The boiler inlet temperature is
160°F (71.1°C) and the boiler outlet temperature is 180°F (82.2°C).
This means that there is a 20°F (11.1°C) temperature rise across the
boiler. The boiler temperature rise is visible on the Command Display
on the boiler’s front control panel. When the automatic bypass valve
is open, a portion of the heated water is recirculated back into the
primary heat exchanger. Operation of the bypass will yield higher
discharge temperatures from the boiler.
PUMP MAINTENANCE: Inspect the pump every 6 months and
oil as necessary. Use SAE30 non-detergent oil or lubricant specified
by the pump manufacturer.
This high efficiency boiler MUST be installed with a
primary/secondary piping system. This type of system uses the
integral boiler circulating pump to supply flow to and from the
boiler only. This pump is sized based on a specified minimum pipe
diameter and maximum length. These limitations are critical to
ensure proper flow through the boiler and secondary piping. The
length of the secondary piping to and from the boiler to the main
system loop must not exceed 70 equivalent feet (21.2 m) in length
each direction when installed in 3" (76.2 mm) diameter pipe.
Each elbow and fitting installed in the piping to and from the boiler
will reduce the available equivalent length of pipe that can be
installed. See Water Connection-Piping Lengths for calculation of
equivalent length of pipe and reductions in length for installed
fittings.

FIG. 80 Primary/Secondary Piping of a Single Boiler
MAKE-UP WATER
A properly sized primary system pump provides adequate flow to
carry the heated boiler water to radiation, air over coils, etc. The
fittings that connect the boiler to the primary system should be a
maximum of 12" (0.30 m) (or 4 pipe diameters) apart to ensure
connection at a point of zero pressure drop in the primary system.
There should be 10 pipe diameters of straight pipe before and after
the boiler secondary loop connections to prevent turbulent flow at
the secondary loop connections. Multiple boilers may also be
installed with a primary/secondary manifold system. Multiple
boilers should be connected to the common manifold in reverse
return to assist in balancing flow to multiple boilers.
FROM SYSTEM
CAP EACH MANIFOLD
The installer must ensure that the boiler has adequate flow
without excessive temperature rise. Low system flow can result
in overheating of the boiler water which can cause short burner
cycles, system noise relief valve discharge and in extreme cases,
a knocking flash to steam. These conditions indicate the need to
increase boiler flow to and from the boiler. This is generally
accomplished by increasing the diameter of the piping that
connects the boiler to the primary system. A larger diameter pipe
reduces head loss and increases flow.
TO SYSTEM
FIG. 81 Primary/Secondary Piping of Multiple Boilers
CAUTIONƽ
At no time should the system pressure be less than
12 PSIG.
MINIMUM BOILER WATER
TEMPERATURES
Inlet water temperatures below the specified minimum
recommendations can excessively cool the products of combustion
resulting in condensation on the primary heat exchanger. The boiler
is designed to condense only on the secondary heat exchanger.
Condensation on the primary heat exchanger can cause operational
problems, bad combustion, sooting, flue gas spillage and reduced
service life of the related components.
66

The automatic bypass system allows part of the boiler discharge water
to be mixed with the inlet water to the primary heat exchanger to
increase the boiler inlet temperature above 130°F (55°C). This will
prevent the products of combustion from condensing on the primary
heat exchanger. Avalve must also be provided on the boiler discharge,
after the bypass. Closing this discharge valve sets the maximum flow
through the appliance. (See Bypass—Initial Set-up of Maximum
Water Flow for more details.)
THREE WAY VALVES
The installation of a three way valve on this boiler is not
recommended because most piping methods allow the three way
valve to vary flow to the boiler. This boiler is a low mass, high
efficiency unit which requires a constant water flow rate for proper
operation. Low flow rates can result in overheating of the boiler
water which can cause short burner cycles, system noise, relief
valve discharge and in extreme cases, a knocking flash to steam.
These conditions can cause operational problems and non-
warrantable failures of the boiler.
A minimum water temperature of 50°F (10°C) has been established
for each boiler based on the Btu/hr input at 100% of rated burner
input. The temperature set point for the Excel 10 controller sensing
system must not be set lower than the specified minimum for each
model. Maintaining inlet water temperatures to the boiler equal to
or higher than the specified minimum set point ensures proper
operation of the bypass and allows all condensate formation to
occur on the secondary heat exchanger. A boiler allowed to sustain
operation at water temperatures lower than the specified minimum
set point may not provide enough heat from the burner to maintain
water temperatures in the primary heat exchanger above the 130°F
(55°C) dew point of flue products. Operation of a boiler at a
temperature below the specified minimum set point will result in
non-warrantable operational problems from the condensate
formation on the primary heat exchanger.

Pipe refrigeration systems in parallel. Install duct coil downstream
at the cooling coil. Where the hot water heating boiler is connected
to a heating coil located in the air handling units which may be
exposed to refrigeration air circulation, the boiler piping system
must be equipped with flow control valves or other automatic
means to prevent gravity circulation of the boiler water during the
cooling cycle. The coil must be vented at the high point and hot
water from the boiler must enter the coil at this point. Due to the
fast heating capacity of the boiler, it is not necessary to provide a
ductstat to delay circulator operation. Also, omit thermostat flow
checks as the boiler is cold when heating thermostat is satisfied.

The operating temperature control for the boiler is the Excel 10
controller. It is located on the back side of the front control panel,
behind the front access door. Access to adjust the temperature set
point and other owner/operator adjustable points is made through
the Command Display located on the front control panel. The
sensing element for the operator is placed in a bulb well installed
in the inlet connection to the boiler. The outlet sensor is located in
a bulb well on the outlet side of the primary heat exchanger top
header. Carefully observe the discharge water temperature on the
initial boiler on cycles. The location of the temperature sensor may
generally require a lower temperature set point on the operating
control to achieve the desired discharge water temperature from the
boiler. The return/inlet sensing element location allows a boiler to
sustain longer burner on cycles.

FIG. 83 Typical Water Heater Piping with Storage Tank
This section contains specific instructions for those appliances
used to supply domestic hot water. All warnings, cautions, notes
and instructions in the general installation and service sections
apply to these instructions. Hot water supply boilers and water
heaters are designed for installation with a storage tank. The
operation of the integral circulating pump, properly sizing of the
piping between the tank and heater and the control of water
velocity, as explained below, are important for correct operation
of your water heater or hot water supply boiler.
Excessive lime/scale build-up in the heat exchanger tubes is a
result of restricted flow and too little velocity in the tubes.
Excessive pitting or erosion in the tube is caused by high water
flow and too much velocity through the tubes. Care should be
taken to measure temperature rise and maintain a velocity as
follows:
BYPASS - Initial Set-up of Maximum Water Flow
On initial start-up of the Intelli-Fin the maximum water flow
through the two internal heat exchangers must be manually set
before the automatic operation of the bypass begins.
WATER VELOCITY CONTROL
IMPORTANT
CAUTIONƽ
To ensure proper velocity through the heat exchangers, it
is necessary to regulate the temperature rise across the
heat exchanger from inlet to outlet. This must be done on
initial installation and periodically rechecked. With the
correct temperature rise across the heat exchangers when
the water heater is firing at 100% of rated input, you may
be assured of the proper velocity in the tubes. This will
yield long life and economical operation from your water
heater or hot water supply boiler.
The maximum flow rate through an Intelli-Fin water heater
with a copper heat exchanger must be set to provide and not
exceed 90 GPM.

The heat exchanger is capable of operating within the design flow
rates required for the water heater, storage tank(s) and connecting
piping. Erosion of the finned copper tubes may occur if the flow
rate exceeds the maximum allowable flow rate through the water
heater. The maximum flow through the water heater must be
adjusted with the bypass valve in the full closed position. Maximum
flow is 90 GPM. Flow rate can be determined by measuring the
temperature rise through the water heater when it is firing at full
rate input. Also see Bypass Initial Setup of Maximum Water Flow
for adjustment procedure.
NOTE:
The Excel 10 controller makes all internal calculations in
°C and converts the displayed temperature to °F. This may
limit exact temperature adjustment. Setting of temperature
rise to the nearest °F is acceptable when setting maximum
flow.
1.
2.
The pump must run continuously when the burner is
firing.
Setting temperature rise on an Intelli-Fin with an automatic bypass
is accomplished by disconnecting the power leads to the actuator,
(multi-pin connector on rear of appliance), declutching the actuator
drive and manually closing the bypass valve. Manual adjustment
of the bypass must not be attempted if the 24 VAC power leads
are connected to the terminals on the appliance, the appliance
is operating or if there is any torque on the bypass valve by the
actuator. Disconnect the 24 VAC power leads to the bypass
valve actuator. The declutch button on the actuator must be
pushed down and held in the depressed position to disengage the
gear driven motor that operates the valve. The declutch button must
push in easily without forcing its movement. If the button does not
easily move when pushed, the valve is under torque. Forcing the
declutch button in will cause non-warrantable damage to the
actuator. Torque can be removed by disconnecting the power leads
to the valve actuator. With the declutch button fully depressed,
move the actuator handle till it is perpendicular to the piping. This
fully closes the bypass valve. The position of the handle is the same
as the position of the butterfly in the valve seat. With the bypass
fully closed, all inlet water flows through the secondary heat ex-
changer and then through the primary heat exchanger. No water
will flow through the bypass at this time. Turn the appliance on and
allow the burner to come on and fire at full rate (100% of input as
shown on the Command Display). Adjust the field-installed ball
valve in the outlet piping from the water heater to the storage tank
to achieve the proper temperature rise for your specific model.
Adjustment to achieve this temperature rise ensures a maximum of
90 GPM to the bypass and pump when in operation.
With the pump running and the burner in the water
heater or hot water supply boiler in the off cycle,
the Return/Inlet Temp and Supply/Outlet Temp
readings on the Command Display should read
approximately the same temperatures. Temp Rise
in the Command Display should read zero.
3.
4.
Turn the water heater or hot water supply boiler
on and allow time for the temperature to stabilize.
Check the temperature rise in the Command
Display when the burner is firing at 100% of rated
input.
Compare the temperature rise on the Command
Display with the required temperature rise. Should
adjustment be needed, proceed as follows:
If the temperature rise is too high, the water velocity is too
low. Adjust as follows:
1.
2.
3.
Check for restrictions in the outlet of the water
heater or hot water supply boiler.
Check diameter and equivalent length of the piping
between the storage tank and water heater.
Be sure all valves are open between the water
heater or hot water supply boiler and the storage
tank. Ensure that all ball valves are fully ported.
4.
Check the pump to be sure it is running properly
and that the pump motor is running in the proper
direction.

Be sure the pipes between the water heater or hot
water supply boiler and storage tank are not less
than 3 inch (76.2 mm) diameter for up to 70
equivalent feet (21.2 m) of pipe to and from the
WATER CHEMISTRY
NOTE:
heater.
If maximum equivalent length for the
specified pipe diameter is exceeded, larger diameter
pipe may have to be installed to achieve correct flow
and temperature rise.
Water temperature rise and maximum flow data are based
on heating potable water with a hardness of 5 to 25 grains
per gallon and total dissolved solids not exceeding 350 ppm.
Common manifold piping for multiple unit
installations will require larger minimum pipe sizes
and tank circulating tappings to ensure proper flow.
The required temperature rise and the standard integral pump are
sized based on the heating of potable water with a hardness of 5 to
25 grains per gallon and a total dissolved solids not
exceeding 350 ppm. Consult the manufacturer when heating
potable water exceeding these specifications. Heating of high
hardness and/or high total dissolved solids water may require a
larger circulating pump, an optional cupro-nickel heat exchanger
and a revised temperature rise specification based on the water
chemistry of the water to be heated. Water with a hardness of less
than 5 grains per gallon will usually have a low pH which can be
aggressive and corrosive causing non-warrantable damage to the
heater, pump and associated piping. Corrosion due to water
chemistry generally shows up first in the hot water system because
heated water increases the rate of corrosive chemical reactions.
If the temperature rise is too low, the water velocity is too high.
Adjust as follows:
1.
Temperature rise can be increased by slowly
closing the field-installed ball valve in the outlet
piping from the water heater to the storage tank to
achieve the proper temperature rise.
2.
Sustained high water velocity and low temperature
rise may result in pitting or erosion of the copper
tubes in the heat exchangers. This is
a
non-warrantable failure. Temperature rise must be
properly adjusted to achieve the specified flow rate.
3.
4.
Once temperature rise has been properly set,
reconnect the power leads to the bypass actuator.
Turn power on and place the run/stop switch in
the “RUN” position and allow the bypass valve to
go through the synchronization process before it
begins normal operation.
WARNINGƽ
Moving the bypass handle while appliance is firing can
result in abnormally high water temperature that may
cause sudden relief valve discharge.
CAUTIONƽ
Temperature rise cannot be adjusted when the burner is
firing at less than 100% of rate input.

The operating sensor must be installed in the tapping provided in
the lower 25% of the storage tank to achieve proper operation. As
shipped from the factory, the operating sensor is installed in a bulb
well mounted in the inlet piping to the water heater. When the
pump cycles off in normal operation, this sensor location may not
adequately sense a quick drop in temperature from a draw of hot
water from the storage tank. Placing the sensor in the tapping
provided on the storage tank will improve temperature response
and prevent short cycles of operation when a water heater is
equipped with the optional intermittent pump feature.

When installing multiple water heaters and/or multiple storage
tanks, the diameter of the inner connecting pipe and all fittings must
be increased. An increase in pipe diameter will decrease head loss
in the system piping and ensure proper flow. Proper pipe size
between the heater and storage tank MUST be maintained to ensure
that the standard pump supplied on the water heater will maintain
desired flow.

PUMP OPERATION
1.
The water heater or hot water supply boiler has a
properly sized integral circulating pump. This
pump is sized to circulate water between the heater
and storage tank only.
NOTE:
Minimum pipe diameters and maximum length
specifications must be per the requirements in this section.
2.
3.
The internal pump is sized to the heater input and
water chemistry specifications noted in “Water
Chemistry.”
HEAT EXCHANGER
The diameter and length of the piping installed
between the storage tank(s) and water heater must be
properly sized based on the equivalent length
specifications.
This is a highly sophisticated heat exchanger system, designed to
carry water in such a way that it generates a scouring action which
keeps all interior surfaces free from build-up of impurities. The
straight-line, four pass design of the tubes sends water into the
headers at a properly rated velocity. The configuration of the
headers, in turn, creates a high degree of turbulence which is
sufficient to keep all contaminants in suspension. This “scouring
action” provides greater cost savings for owners. Tubes are always
able to transfer heat at peak efficiency. Every surface within this
water containing section is of a non-ferrous material, providing
clear, clean, rust-free hot water. Straight copper tubes finned on
the outside for maximum heat transfer and glass lined, cast iron,
one piece, cored headers make up an entirely rust-proof unit. On
all models, header inspection plugs in the primary heat exchanger
can be removed for field inspection and cleaning of copper tubes.
Each of the heat exchangers may be removed from the unit.
4.
The pump must run continuously when the water
heater or hot water supply boiler is firing. This is the
standard operating system for a water heater or hot
water supply boiler.
An intermittent pump control function with an all bronze pump
is installed as standard equipment on all water heater systems.
The pump will operate only while there is a “Call for Heat” and
for a timed period after the water temperature set point is satisfied
to remove any residual heat from the combustion chamber.
5.
Lubricate pump to manufacturers recommendations.
Pump damage due to inadequate lubrication is
non-warrantable.

MINIMUM WATER TEMPERATURES
(Domestic Hot Water Use)
An appliance allowed to operate with return temperatures
set point below the specified minimum settings may experi-
ence operational problems with the operating controls and
safety switches, obstruction of the flue gas passages on the
primary heat exchanger, incomplete combustion and
possible flue gas spillage. Operation at lower than specified
water temperatures may cause hazardous conditions that
result in non-warrantable damage to the appliance.
Inlet water temperatures below the specified minimum
recommendations can excessively cool the products of combustion
resulting in condensation on the primary heat exchanger. The water
heater is designed to condense only on the secondary heat
exchanger. Condensation on the primary heat exchanger can cause
operational problems, bad combustion, sooting, flue gas spillage
and reduced service life of the related components.
A minimum water temperature has been established for each model
based on the Btu/hr input at 100% of rated burner input. The
temperature set point for the Excel 10 controller sensing stored
water temperature must not be set lower than the specified
minimum for each model. Maintaining inlet water temperatures to
the water heater equal to or higher than the specified minimum
ensures proper operation of the bypass and allows all condensate
formation to occur on the secondary heat exchanger. A water
heater allowed to sustain operation at water temperatures lower than
the specified minimum may not provide enough heat from the
burner to maintain water temperatures in the primary heat
exchanger above the 130°F (55°C) dew point of flue products.
Operation of a water heater at a temperature below the specified
minimum will result in non-warrantable operational problems from
the condensate formation on the primary heat exchanger.
The maximum temperature set point that can be programmed
into the Excel 10 controller from the Command Display for
water heater operation is 190°F (87.8°C). The Excel 10 control
is factory pre-set at approximately 120°F (48.9°C). Facilities
with small children or invalids may require 120°F (48.9°C) or
lower temperature setting to reduce risk of scald injury. Some
states may require a lower temperature setting. Check with
your gas supplier for local requirements governing the
temperature setting. Remember, no water heating system will
provide exact temperature at all times. Allow a few days of
operation at this setting to determine the correct temperature
setting consistent with your needs.
The following chart (Table II) details the relationship of water
temperature and time with regard to scald injury and may be used
as a guide in determining the safest water temperature for your
applications.

NOTE:
HIGH WATER TEMPERATURE
LIMIT CONTROL
(1) This water heater, when set at the lower temperature
setting, is not capable of producing hot water of sufficient
temperature for sanitizing purposes.
A Manual Reset High Limit control is located on the left front of the
left front side of the control panel, beside the Command Display.
Additional switches, alarm indicating lights and optional low water
cut-off control switches are also located on this panel. The setting of
this control knob limits maximum discharge water temperature. The
water heater or hot water supply boiler temperature limit control is
adjustable up to a fixed maximum setting of 200°F (93°C). A red
reset button, located beside the knob, must be pushed whenever water
temperature has exceeded the set point of the manual reset limit. The
temperature of the water in the heat exchanger must drop a minimum
of 15°F (8.3°C) below the setting of the manual reset high limit control
before the reset function can be activated. A red indicating light is
illuminated when the water temperature exceeds the setting of the high
limit control. A status point alarm of Over Temp will be displayed in
the Command Display when water temperature exceeds the Setpoint
Temperature programmed into the Excel 10 control.
(2) Higher stored water temperature increases the ability
of the water heater to supply desired quantities of hot
water, however remember-
Incorrect piping of the cold water supply to the system may result
in excessive low temperature operation causing condensate
formation on the primary heat exchanger and operational problems.
The cold water supply piping must be installed in the discharge
piping from the heater to the storage tank. This allows the cold
water to be tempered in the storage tank before entering the heater.
See typical installation drawings provided with the unit for
correct piping. Higher water temperatures reduce the volume of
condensate formed.
CAUTIONƽ
OPTIONAL RELIEF VALVE
This water heater or hot water supply boiler is normally supplied with
a temperature and pressure relief valve sized in accordance with
applicable codes. Units may be supplied with an optional pressure
only relief valve. When a water heater or hot water supply boiler
equipped with this optional relief valve is piped to a separate storage
vessel, the storage vessel must have a properly installed temperature
and pressure relief valve which complies with local codes.
Hotter water increases the risk of scald injury. Setting the
temperature selector to higher settings provides hotter water,
which increases the risk of scald injury.
The manufacturer recommends the use of a properly sized
thermostatic mixing valve to supply domestic hot water at
temperatures less than 110°F (43.3°C). Storing the water at a higher
temperature and thermostatically mixing the water will decrease
the size of the storage tank and increase the available quantity of
mixed hot water. Storing water at higher temperatures can help to
control the level of condensate formed and help prevent the growth
of water born bacteria. Caution! Adequate care MUST be taken to
prevent potential scald injury when storing water at 140°F (60°C)
and hotter.
THERMAL EXPANSION
A relief valve that discharges periodically may be due to thermal
expansion in a closed system. A water heater or hot water supply
boiler installed in a closed system, such as one with a backflow
preventer or check valve installed in the cold water supply, shall be
provided with means to control expansion. Contact the water supplier
or local plumbing inspector on how to correct this situation. Do not
plug or cap the relief valve discharge!
WARNINGƽ
Should overheating occur or the gas supply fail to shut
off, do not turn off or disconnect the electrical supply to
the pump. Instead, shut off the gas supply at a location
external to the appliance.
CATHODIC PROTECTION
Hydrogen gas can be produced in a hot water system that has not been
used for a long period of time (generally two weeks or more).
Hydrogen gas is extremely flammable. To prevent the possibility of
injury under these conditions, we recommend the hot water faucet be
open for several minutes at the kitchen sink before you use any
electrical appliance which is connected to the hot water system. If
hydrogen is present, there will be an unusual sound such as air
escaping through the pipe as the hot water begins to flow. There
should be no smoking or open flames near the faucet at the time it is
open.
