4 W ARNING Y our Dura-Max boiler is not designed to operate with a boiler inlet water temperature of less than 100 ° F (38 ° C). Colder inlet water temperatures will result in significant condensation developing on the heat exchanger . This situation can cause a corrosive environment for the heat exchanger , burners and venting resulting in prema[...]

13 The flow switch shall be mounted in the top opening of the reducing tee and provide adequate paddle length in the flow stream. For example in a 2" pipe installation use a 2" x 2" x 1" reducing tee. For 2" or 3" pipe use the paddle segments as supplied. For other pipe sizes (i.e. 2-1/2") trim the paddle to the p[...]

14 Thereafter , during the heating season, lubricate the three oil cups at least once every four months. Combination heating/cooling systems or water heating (Cer-temp) systems should be lubricated every four months year-round. Use 2 or 3 teaspoonfuls in bearing oil cups, fig. 9, and 10 or 12 drops in the motor oil cups. Use No. 20 non-detergent mo[...]

15 A system bypass should be installed as shown in fig. 10 to prevent boiler circulation starvation when the system zones call for reduced flow .

17 BYP ASS BALANCING With systems where water temperature can be expected to drop appreciably due to long standby periods, or heavy draw down, a bypass pipe of at least 1" size with a balancing cock should be installed between the boiler inlet and outlet (see fig. 10). When the system first starts, the valve should be slowly opened until the c[...]

18 generator type boilers establish temperature rises. The deciding factor in choice of boiler temperature rise relates to the boiler inlet temperature. Boiler outlet, minus system temperature drop, is boiler inlet temperature.
