NOTICE
This boiler has a limited warranty, a copy of which is printed on the back of this manual.
It is the responsibility of the installing contractor to see that all controls are correctly installed and are operating
properly when the installation is complete. The warranty for this boiler is valid only if the boiler has been
installed, maintained and operated in accordance with these instructions.

DANGER
DO NOT store or use gasoline or other ammable vapors or liquids in the vicinity of this or any other
appliance.
WARNING
Improper installation, adjustment, alteration, service or maintenance can cause property damage, personal
injury or loss of life. Failure to follow all instructions in the proper order can cause personal injury or
death. Read and understand all instructions, including all those contained in component manufacturers
manuals which are provided with the appliance before installing, starting-up, operating, maintaining or
servicing this appliance. Keep this manual and literature in legible condition and posted near appliance
for reference by owner and service technician.
This boiler requires regular maintenance and service to operate safely. Follow the instructions contained
in this manual. Installation, maintenance, and service must be performed only by an experienced, skilled
and knowledgeable installer or service agency. All heating systems should be designed by competent
contractors and only persons knowledgeable in the layout and installation of hydronic heating systems
should attempt installation of any boiler. It is the responsibility of the installing contractor to see that all
controls are correctly installed and are operating properly when the installation is completed. Installation
is not complete unless a pressure relief valve is installed into the specied tapping located at the rear of
appliance - See Section III of this manual for details.
This boiler is suitable for installation on combustible ooring. Do not install boiler on carpeting. Do not
operate on oors where heat affected material is below.
Do not tamper with or alter the boiler or controls. Retain your contractor or a competent serviceman to
assure that the unit is properly adjusted and maintained.
Clean boiler at least once a year - preferably at the start of the heating season to remove soot and scale.
The inside of combustion chamber should also be cleaned and inspected at the same time.
Have Burner and Controls must be checked at least once a year or as may be necessitated.
Do not operate unit with jumpered or absent controls or safety devices.
Do not operate unit if any control, switch, component, or device has been subject to water.
Return water cannot be lower than 135°F for prolonged periods of time. Operation under these conditions will
result in sustained condensing within the combustion chamber and potentially reduce boiler longevity.
In addition, the return water cannot be introduced into the boiler if it is more than 40°F less than the idle
boiler temperature. Continued operation under these conditions may result in premature boiler failure
through thermal shock.
Example: A boiler that has been idle for some time since the last heat demand cycle may have it’s boiler
water temperature reduced to 150°F. The return temperature from the next zone activation cannot be
less than 110°F.
If the above conditions exist, an RTC (or similar type of control system) system must be installed to
protect the boiler from sustained condensing operation and thermal shock. See separate RTC Manual,
P/N 8146382.

WARNING
Appliance materials of construction, products of combustion and the fuel contain alumina, silica, heavy
metals, carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides, aldehydes and/or other toxic or harmful substances which
can cause death or serious injury and which are known to the state of California to cause cancer, birth
defects and other reproductive harm. Always use proper safety clothing, respirators and equipment when
servicing or working nearby the appliance.
This boiler contains very hot water under high pressures. Do not unscrew any pipe ttings nor attempt
to disconnect any components of this boiler without positively assuring the water is cool and has no
pressure. Always wear protective clothing and equipment when installing, starting up or servicing this
boiler to prevent scald injuries. Do not rely on the pressure and temperature gauges to determine the
temperature and pressure of the boiler. This boiler contains components which become very hot when
the boiler is operating. Do not touch any components unless they are cool.
This appliance must be properly vented and connected to an approved vent system in good condition.
Do not operate boiler with the absence of an approved vent system.
This boiler needs fresh air for safe operation and must be installed so there are provisions for adequate
combustion and ventilation air.
The interior of the venting and air intake systems must be inspected and cleaned before the start of the
heating season and should be inspected periodically throughout the heating season for any obstructions.
Clean and unobstructed venting and air intake systems are necessary to allow noxious fumes that could
cause injury or loss of life to vent safely and will contribute toward maintaining the boiler's efciency.
This boiler is supplied with controls which may cause the boiler to shut down and not re-start without
service. If damage due to frozen pipes is a possibility, the heating system should not be left unattended in
cold weather; or appropriate safeguards and alarms should be installed on the heating system to prevent
damage if the boiler is inoperative.
This boiler is designed to burn No. 2 fuel oil, natural and/or LP gas only. Do not use gasoline, crankcase
drainings, or any oil containing gasoline. Never burn garbage or paper in this boiler. Do not convert to
any solid fuel (i.e. wood, coal). All ammable debris, rags, paper, wood scraps, etc., should be kept clear
of the boiler at all times. Keep the boiler area clean and free of re hazards.
Always keep the oil supply valve shut off if the burner is shut down for an extended period of time.
Probe and oat type low water cutoff devices require annual inspection and maintenance. Refer to
instructions in Section V, Paragraph C for inspection and cleaning instructions.
NOTICE
All V11 Series cast iron boilers are designed, built, marked and tested in accordance with the ASME Boiler
and Pressure Vessel Code, Section IV, Heating Boilers. An ASME Data Label is factory applied to each V11
jacket, which indicates the boiler Maximum Allowable Working Pressure (MAWP). Each cast iron section is
permanently marked with the MAWP listed on the boiler’s ASME Data Label. Those values for the V11 are as
follows:
MAWP, Steam - 15 psi
MAWP, Water (USA) - 80 psi
MAWP, Water (Canada) - 50 psi
It is common and acceptable practice to install these boilers in lower pressure systems, below the boiler
MAWP. Therefore, Burnham offers safety relief valves set at or below the MAWP of the boiler. See Table 1 for
available safety relief valve set pressures.

Figure 2: Boiler Foundation
WARNING
Boiler is suitable for installation on combustible
oor. Do not install boiler on carpeting.
Floor construction should have adequate load
bearing characteristics to bear the weight of
the boiler lled with water (see Table 1). A
boiler foundation similar to the one shown in
Figure 2 is recommended if the boiler room
oor is weak or uneven or if a water condition exists.
4. PROVIDE AIR SUPPLY AND
VENTILATION to accommodate proper
combustion.
WARNING
Failure to supply adequate air to the boiler will
result in unsafe boiler operation.
For commercial and industrial equipment,
permanent facilities for supplying an ample amount
of outside air shall be provided in accordance with
the following.
For boiler rooms adjacent to outside walls, and
where combustion air is provided by natural
ventilation from the outside, there shall be a
permanent air supply inlet having a total free area of
not less than 1 sq. in. per 4,000 Btu per hr. (35 sq.
in. per gal. per hr.) (5.5 cm2 per kw.) of total input
rating of the burner or burners and in no case less
than 35 sq. in. (0.425 m2).
For boiler rooms not adjacent to outside walls,
the combustion air shall be supplied in a manner
acceptable to the authority having jurisdiction.
a. In the absence of local requirements, the
conned space shall be provided with two
permanent openings, one in or near the top of
the room and one near the bottom. The openings
shall communicate by means of ducts, with the
outdoors or to such spaces (crawl or attic) that

not less than 1 sq. in. per 4,000 Btuh (35 sq.
in. per gph.) (5.5 cm2 per kw) of total input
rating of all appliances in the enclosure.
ii. If horizontal ducts are used, each opening
shall have a free area of not less than 1 sq.
in. per 2,000 Btuh (70 sq. in. per gph.) (11
cm2 per kw) of total input of all appliances
in the enclosure.
5. CHIMNEY OR VENT
NOTICE
When a V11 gas red boiler is connected to
a venting system that is designed so that it
will operate under a negative pressure, the
use of Type C, B, or other manufactured vent
systems designed for negative pressure is
acceptable.
When a V11 oil red or combination gas/oil
red boiler is connected to a venting system
that is designed so that it will operate under
a negative pressure, the use of Type C, L or
other manufactured vent systems designed
for negative pressure is acceptable.
Unlined masonry chimneys are not acceptable. Lined masonry chimneys are acceptable
with the appropriate vent connectors using
materials described above.
11
WARNING
When a V11 gas red boiler is connected to
a venting system that is designed so that
it will operate under a positive pressure,
manufactured vent systems, designed and
approved for positive pressure application per
UL1738, must be used (for example, Van-Packer
model CS, Protech Model FasNSeal / FasNSeal
W2, Heatfab Saf-T-Vent or equivalent).
When a V11 oil red or combination gas/oil
red boiler is connected to a venting system
that is designed so that it will operate under a positive pressure, manufactured vent
systems, designed and approved for positive pressure application, must be used (for
example, Selkirk Metalbestos Model PS / IPS,
Van-Packer Model ES or equivalent).
The V11 Series boiler is designed for forced draft
ring and may be used with a conventional natural
draft stack (15’ minimum height) or a stub vent,
sometimes called a diesel stack (see Figure 3a). See
Table I for the proper vent outlet size. For low
silhouette vent terminations, see Figure 3b. Draft
controls are not normally required, although they
may be used on installations where a natural draft
stack is used or on multiple boiler installations
with a common stack. The boiler is provided with
a breeching damper, which should be adjusted to
maintain a positive pressure of 0.1” W.C. in the vent
connector box during burner high re operation (see
breeching pressure sensing port in Figure 1).
Figure 3a: Typical Arangement For Stub Vent
If the venting system is designed for positive or forced
draft venting, the boiler, vent connector and stack will
operate under positive pressure. Gas tight vent systems
designed for pressure systems must be used to prevent
ue by-product leakage. The vent height is usually
limited to prevent negative draft, typically three (3)
feet above the roof line (see Figure 3a). The damper
shall be adjusted to maintain a positive pressure of 0.1”
W.C. in the vent connector box during burner high re
operation (see breeching pressure sensing port in Figure
1).
If the venting system is designed for negative pressure
(natural draft), the boiler still operates with positive
pressure in the chamber and up to the xed damper on
the ue collar. However, if the venting system is larger
than what is required, the stack will provide a surplus
draft (or negative pressure) that may require the use of
a barometric damper to maintain the positive 0.1” W.C.
pressure at the ue outlet. Multiple forced draft boiler
stacks should always be designed as negative to ensure
the products of combustion do not exit a boiler that is
not ring.
WARNING
Venting instructions are recommendations only. Consult a venting expert on the design of a specic
vent system for your application. The ASHRAE Venting Guide and The National Fuel Gas Code, NFPA 54
should be considered in all venting systems.
Conventional vent material may not e suitable for the application. Flue gases can leak carbon monoxide
from the joints on these materials and can result in severe personal injury or death.
Installations having long horizontal runs or an excessive amount of tees or elbows will restrict the ow
of combustion gases and can result in condensation, ue gas leakage of carbon monoxide, resulting in
severe personal injury or death.

VENT SIZING - Area must be the same as or greater than the boiler breeching (Smoke Outlet). A barometric damper may be required on
installations with a high draft condition.
1. If improper vent is suspected, remove pipe at breeching and operate boiler. This will determine if excessive down draft,
blocked or restricted ue, etc. is causing the problem.
2. If using type shown in A above, be sure cap is raised sufciently above main pipe to allow ue gases to vent unimpeded.

These sections are designed to be drawn together
one section at a time using the 11" long draw-up
rods (provided) and ordinary hand tools.
Tools required:
(1) ¾" Drive Ratchet
(1) 1¼" Socket
(1) 1¼" Combination or Open End Wrench
(1) Can Thread Cutting Oil or Grease
WHE N ASSEM BLING S ECTIONS WITHOU T
HYDRAULIC DRAW-UP EQUIPMENT,
NEVER ASSEMBLE MORE THAN ONE
SECTION AT A TIME.
a. Place the rear section in its approximate nal
position, as outlined in Section I and support it
with a suitable prop. See Figure 5.
Figure 5: Positioning of Back Section
Figure 4: Lifting Instruction
14
b. On sizes 1104 thru 1106 only - Open target wall
carton, apply silastic to back of target wall and
secure target wall to rear section.
c. Clean the groove in the ground joint along the
edge of the section with the wire brush.
d. Open the Boiler Assembly Carton(s) and remove
the bottle of adhesive. Using the dauber supplied
in the bottle, apply the adhesive to the groove.
Be sure to use enough adhesive to sufciently
coat the entire groove surface. If so desired,
a multi-purpose spray adhesive (supplied by
others) may be used instead. HOWEVER,
GREAT CARE MUST BE TAKEN TO
ENSURE THAT THE ADHESIVE DOES
NOT COME IN CONTACT WITH THE
NIPPLES OR NIPPLE PORTS.
e. While the adhesive is becoming tacky, clean the
nipples and nipple ports thoroughly with a degreasing solvent. Use the Loctite #592 supplied
to lubricate the nipples and nipple ports. Apply
the lubricant to the nipples and nipple ports,
then use a brush to disperse it evenly around the
nipples and nipple ports. Use approximately 25
ml of Loctite #592 per ueway [(1) 7" and (2) 3"
nipples and their (6) corresponding nipple ports].
f. Drive nipples squarely into section using
block of wood and hammer, or preferably, an
aluminum head hammer. Burnham offers a
polyethylene block for setting the nipples (part
no. 8052601). Place block over entire nipple
edge and hit the wood with the hammer.
end of the groove is reached, cut off the excess
rope. Push the length of the excess rope into
the groove at the top corner of the section face
end of the groove is reached, cut off the excess
rope. Push the length of the excess rope into
the groove at the top corner of the section face
(opposite of the 7" nipple port). Cut off and
discard any remaining rope after groove is lled.
See Figure 7.
i. From the "Section Arrangement" chart, select
the next section according to the "Identication
Code" at the top of the chart. See Figure 8.
WARNING
Nipples must be driven in evenly and to the
proper depth to assure tight joints. Most
nipple leaks are caused by tilted or cocked
nipples.
DO NOT use steel/iron head hammer to
drive nipples without using a wood block.
Nipple damage may result.
g. A special nipple setting gauge is provided for the
nipples. Gauge nipple at 90° angles to insure
that it is driven to the proper depth into the
nipple opening (nipple port). Cut-out in gauge
must rest on nipple, with the legs of the gauge
touching nished face of section, when nipple is
properly driven. See Figure 6.
h. Remove a 127" length of berglass rope from
the assembly carton. Starting with the area
around the upper 7" nipple port, rmly press
the rope into the groove, so that the adhesive
holds it in place. (If more than 25 minutes have
passed since the adhesive was applied, it may be
necessary to reapply.) Continue to afx the rope
to the groove in this fashion around the perimeter
of the section. Make sure that the rope does not
droop or hang outside of the groove. When the

section joint sealants (silastics) manufactured
by Dow-Corning under the product number RTV
736, and Sil-Bond under the product number RTV
6500.
Figure 9: Connection Inspection Locations and
Manual Draw-Up Tie Rod Pattern
CAUTION
WARNING
Sections must be drawn-up tight immediately
after properly applying sealant for best results.
Although sections may be joined within two
(2) hours of applying sealant, humidity and
temperature affect cure time. If a "thick skin"
has been formed on the sealant bead, remove
and re-apply sealant.
Sealant must be properly applied to ALL boiler
joints. Failure to properly seal the boiler joints
will result in combustion gas leaks through the
joint. DO NOT operate boiler with combustion
gas leaks.
j. Clean and lubricate nipple ports on next section
to be assembled and place on nipples previously
installed in rear section. To facilitate assembly,
it is advisable to enter the upper nipple rst in
its port. Then enter the lower nipples in their
respective ports. If necessary, place a lifting bar
(crowbar) under the center of the section and
lift the nipple port onto the upper nipple. Drive
section in place with a heavy block of wood,
striking blows as squarely as possible over nipple
ports.
k. Large draw-up rod lugs with dual holes are cast in
the four corners of each casting. STARTING WITH
THE UPPER HOLES, in s tall fo ur 3/4" x 11"
lo ng dra w -up ro ds along with washers and nuts
(see Figure 9).
To avoid damage to the draw-up rod threads while
drawing up sections, apply oil or other lubricant
to tie rod threads while assembling sections to
prevent stripping of threads on rod and to make
assembling easier.
l. DRAW UP SECTION SLOWLY AND
EVENLY using an alternating pattern starting
with the upper right lug (closest to the 7" port)
and proceeding to the lower left , lower right
and nishing with upper left lug. When you
start, grind surfaces between adjoining sections
should be approximately 3/8” apart. Use
three (3) or four (4) passes at tightening the
four (4) draw-up rods a little at a time so that
sections are pulled up evenly. During the last
pass, pay close attention to the silastic sealant
as it squeezes when the sections come in close
contact. The silastic sealant should continue
to squeeze out wafer thin until the sections are
connected metal to metal. If the silastic has
stopped squeezing out from the connection and
the sections still do not appear to be drawn metal
to metal, use a feeler gauge to measure any gaps
at the locations identied in Figure 9. (Unless
specied otherwise, gaps should be measured at
these locations on both sides of the sections). A
maximum gap of .025" is acceptable. Measure
gaps at the outer edge of the connection only,
making sure not to puncture the gasket created
by the silastic and rope.
17
WARNING
IMPORTANT
When tightening the draw-up nuts, DO NOT
EXCEED 165 FT - LB. OF TORQUE. If the maximum
torque limit has been reached and a gap greater
than .025" still exists between the sections,
consult the sales representative.
KEEP NIPPLES ALIGNED WITH NIPPLE
PORTS. If necessary, tap edge of nipples lightly
with a blunt tool or rod to keep nipples from
cocking while sections are being drawn-up.
DO NOT DRAW UP SECTION WHEN
NIPPLES ARE COCKED. If the torque
required becomes excessive, periodically place a
heavy block of wood over each nipple port and
strike as squarely as possible with several blows
to relieve tension on the draw-up rods.
m. CONTINUE ASSEMBLING SECTIONS IN
THEIR RESPECTIVE ORDER alternating
the draw-up rods from the upper to lower set
of holes in draw-up lugs. Be certain that all
sections are drawn up IRON-TO-IRON at all
three (3) nipple ports.
BE SURE TO APPLY THE FIBERGLASS
ROPE AND SEALANT to the grooves in the
ground joints between adjacent sections as the
boiler operates with a positive pressure in the
rebox and products of combustion will escape
between sections unless they are properly sealed.
The rope and sealant should be applied before
each section is placed on the assembly.
JACKET SUPPORT BRACKETS must be attached
to the appropriate center section during the
assembly process on boiler sizes V1113 thru
V1123. Check "Section Arrangement" Chart for
location of center section to which jacket support
brackets must be attached (see Figure 8 on Page
16).

n. If a joint springs apart it must be re-drawn tight
within four (4) hours of the time of application of
Silastic to that joint.
o. EXCESS LENGTH OF DRAW-UP RODS
must not extend beyond front and rear sections to
ensure proper t of jacket, adjust accordingly.
p. AFTER ALL SECTIONS HAVE BEEN
DRAWN UP, THE DRAW-UP ROD NUTS
SHOULD BE LOOSENED UNTIL FINGER
TIGHT AND THEN TIGHTENED ½ TURN
WITH A WRENCH.
q. Now Proceed to Paragraph C of this section,
Hydrostatic Test.
2. ASSEMBLY OF SECTIONS (HYDRAULIC
DRAW-UP)
V1104 through V1112 Section Assemblies
The entire assemblage may be drawn-up at one time
using the hydraulic draw-up equipment providing
the operation is completed within four (4) hours
after application of the sealant.
V1113 through V1123 Section Assemblies
The total assemblage should be rst drawn-up into
two (2) sub-assemblies. Each sub-assembly may be
drawn-up at one time using the hydraulic draw-up
equipment providing the operation is completed
within four (4) hours after the application of the
sealant.
"Hydraulic Draw-Up Equipment" is available
through Burnham by ordering part number 6196008.
a. Repeat steps 1a through 1j under "Field
Assembled Sections (Manual Draw-Up)".
b. Continue driving sections in place (in their
respective order) until all sections are in the
assemblage. Ground surfaces between adjoining
sections should be spaced 1/4" to 3/8" apart.
Spacing of more than 3/8" will limit number of
sections that can be drawn up in one unit and
could indicate cocked nipples.
WARNING
Sealant must be properly applied to ALL grooves.
Failure to properly seal the boiler joints will result
in combustion gas leaks through the joint. DO
NOT operate boiler with combustion gas leaks.
The sealant should be applied before each section
is placed on the assembly.
On long boiler assemblies, it may be necessary
to draw up a partial block if the entire boiler is
not ready to be drawn up tight within four (4)
hours of the rst application of the Silastic. If
the block assembly time extends overnight, the
partial block completed must be drawn up tight
before leaving the boiler overnight. If a joint
springs out, it must be re-drawn tight within four
(4) hours of rst application of Silastic to the
joint.
c. Insert the three 3/4" draw-up rods (and
couplings, if appropriate) through the tapped
holes in the rear section extending them through
the tapped holes in the front section. Be sure to
screw draw-up rods into couplings far enough to
prevent stripping threads.
d. Place a 12" long steel channel on each end of the
upper draw-up rod and an 8½” long steel channel
on each end of the lower draw-up rods. Install
nuts and washers on one end of the draw-up rods
and the hydraulic rams, washers and draw-up rod
clamps on the other. See Figure 13.
e. Draw-Up Sections
Use hydraulic rams to draw up sections by
applying pressure alternately on the draw-up
rods. When rams reach stroke limit, release
pressure in ram pumps and then move clamps to
new position.
19
CAUTION
Do not apply pressure directly on threaded
tappings on front and rear sections with draw-up
channels during assembly procedures.
Rods should be approximately centered in
openings so that rods and couplings (when
used) do not drag on pipe thread in end section
tappings.
WARNING
READ THE STATEMENTS BELOW BEFORE
ATTEMPTING TO USE HYDRAULIC EQUIPMENT.
•
Release pressure in ram pumps before
attempting to remove clamps.
•
Do not stand in line with draw-up rods at
either end when hydraulic pressure is being
applied. As a safety measure, ends of drawup rods should be covered while sections are
being drawn in case rods should snap while
under tension.
•
Do not operate ram against draw-up
coupling.
•
Do not operate pump after ram has reached
stroke limit.
f. Continue to draw-up until all sections make
contact at the ground joints.
g. After all sections have been drawn up, but before
removing the hydraulic rams and draw-up rods,
the 11" long tie-rods must be installed.
Large draw-up rod lugs with dual holes are cast
in the four (4) corners of each casting. Starting
with the upper holes in the back section, install
four (4) ¾" x 11" long tie rods along with
washers and nuts. Continue installing the tie
rods alternating from the upper to lower set
of holes in draw-up lugs until front section is
secured. Be certain that all sections are drawn up
iron to iron at all three nipple ports.
IMPORTANT
Jacket Support Brackets must be attached to the
appropriate center section during this process.
Check "Section Arrangement" chart for location
of center section to which jacket support brackets
must be attached (see Figure 8).

C. HYDROSTATIC TEST - After the boiler sections
have been assembled, it is essential that the boiler be
hydrostatically tested before the canopy, ue cover
plates, jacket, or piping is installed.
1. Tankless Heater Installation
If boiler is ordered with tankless heaters, install
heaters with the gaskets provided. Table V gives
the maximum number of heaters permissible per
assemblage and the heater ratings.
2. Plug all boiler tappings and ll entirely with cold
water.
CAUTION
DO NOT install gauge until after hydrostatic
testing the boiler. Gauge failure may result.
3. All completed boilers shall satisfactorily pass the
prescribed hydrostatic test.
a. STEAM BOILERS: The assembled boiler shall
be subjected to a hydrostatic test of not less than
45 psig.
20
b. HOT WATER BOILERS: The assembled boiler
shall be subjected to a hydrostatic test of not less
than 1½ times the maximum allowable working
pressure, as established by the relief valve
provided with the boiler. For example, a boiler
with a 50 psi relief valve must be subjected to a
test pressure of 75 psig to 85 psig.
WARNING
Failure to properly hydrotest all boilers at the
correct pressure may result in section assembly
failure in operations.
4. EXAMINE BOILER CAREFULLY, INSIDE AND
OUTSIDE, to insure against leaks from cocked
nipples or through concealed breakage caused in
shipping and handling. This precaution is for your
protection and will simplify handling of necessary
replacements and adjustment claims.
5. After making certain that there are no leaks, drain
boiler and remove plugs for boiler trim and other
connections.

4. If the boiler burner unit was factory re tested, the
burner was adjusted to approximately 10% CO2
(gas) or 13% CO2 (oil) with an overre pressure as
listed in the Burner Specications, Section VI of this
manual. Final adjustments should be made once the
unit is installed and adjusted.
M. BOILER PIPING - HEATING APPLICATIONS
Connect supply and return piping to heating system (see
Figures 31 to 37). Flow direction for hot water boilers
must be from the rear return out through the top front
supply. Steam boilers can pipe return to the front as an
alternate location. Some boiler sizes may require the
use of additional supply and return tappings. Check
Table IV, Figure 29 and applicable piping diagram for
the boiler size you are installing.
WARNING
Failure to properly pipe boiler may result in
improper, unsafe system operation and void
manufacturer's warranty. DO NOT improperly
pipe boiler.
NOTICE
All steam and hot water pipes must have clearances
of at least ½" from all combustible construction.

1. HOT WATER HEATING - This boiler must be
installed in strict accordance with this installation
manual Deviations from these installation
instructions may void manufacturer’s warranty.
Also consult I=B=R Installation and Piping Guides.
WARNING
Continued boiler operation for prolonged periods
of time under conditions when temperature
differential across the system exceeds 40°F and/
or, return water temperature stays below 135°F,
may result in premature boiler failure due to ue
gas condensation and/or thermal shock.
a. If the boiler is used in connection with
refrigeration systems, boiler must be installed
with chilled medium piped in parallel with
heating boiler using appropriate valves to prevent
chilled medium from entering boiler. See Figure
40.
b. If the boiler is connected to heating coils
located in air handling units where they may be
exposed to refrigerated air, boiler piping must
be equipped with ow control valves to prevent
gravity circulation of boiler water during cooling

c. Burnham Commercial recommends maintaining
temperature differential (drop) across the system
at 40°F or less, and return water temperature at
minimum of 135°F for optimum operation and
long-term reliability.
i.If minimum return water temperature can
be maintained at 135°F and temperature
differential across the system is at 40°F
or less, refer to Figure 31 or 32 for
recommended minimum boiler piping
details.
ii. If minimum return water temperature cannot
be maintained at 135°F or the temperature
differential across the system varies, a blend
pump is recommended as a minimum to help
protect the boiler from ue gas condensation
and/or thermal shock. See piping details in
Figure 33. Primary secondary piping with
a by-pass is an alternate to the blend pump
method and is shown in Figure 34.
d. If conditions exist where the boiler is subjected
to prolonged periods of operating conditions
below 135°F, other mixing methods such as three
or four way valves or variable speed injection
should be used. Burnham Commercial offers an
RTC Return Temperature Control kit to protect
the boiler. See separate RTC manual.
e. Multiple Boilers - Recommended minimum
multiple boiler piping is shown in Figure 35 as
primary secondary with a by-pass. The boiler
circulator will maintain a constant ow through
the boiler during every heat demand while the
by-pass diverts a portion of hot water back to
the return. Alternate minimum multiple boiler
piping is shown in Figure 36. The blend pump
will maintain constant ow through the boiler
during every heat demand and provide a hot
water blend back to the return.
f. Glycol Antifreeze Solutions - Many systems
today use ethylene or propylene glycol antifreeze
solutions as a measure for freeze protection, as
well as a pump lubricator and corrosion inhibitor.
The properties of the glycol mixture have an
impact on valve and pump sizing. All glycol
solutions have a lower specic heat than water.
This means that the glycol solution cannot
transfer heat as well as pure water, resulting in
the need for higher ow rates. In addition, the
viscosity of the glycol solution is usually higher
than water, requiring a higher pump head for the
same given ow. Consult factory for specic
applications, pump selection and ow rate.
WARNING
A properly constructed Hartford Loop must be
installed on all gravity return steam systems.
Hartford Loop is not required on pumped return
systems.

N. BOILER PIPING, DOMESTIC HOT WATER
(DHW) APPLICATION – The V11 boiler can be
used in many different piping applications to produce
Domestic Hot Water (DHW). In some applications,
depending on the control strategy (outdoor reset,
setpoint operation, etc.) and size of the boiler, it is
recommended to isolate the space heating load from the
DHW load. For example, if the domestic load is more
than the space heating load, it is benecial to dedicate
one or more boilers solely to DHW production and one
or more boilers solely to space heating, since during
mild weather conditions, the boiler(s) will have more
capacity than is required. Piped in the recommended
manner, the space heating boiler(s) can be shut down
during the summer months to conserve energy and to
avoid short cycling. This section will address three
methods of piping and controlling domestic hot water
generation.
1. Hot Water Boiler/Tankless Coil(s) – Tankless coils,
mounted into the side of the boiler(s), have been
used successfully for many years and may be used
in single and multiple boiler applications. When
a boiler is arranged with tankless coils, it is not
recommended that outdoor reset be used, unless
there are controls in place to prevent overheating
of the space heating zones. Figure 41 depicts
the addition of an automatic mixing valve to the
tankless heater piping to obtain a dual temperature
domestic system. The mixing valve provides
tempered water to the xtures, while the branch
prior to the valve provides high temperature water
for dishwashing, washing machines and other
appliances.
2. Hot Water Boiler/Tankless Coils/Storage Tank
– This application involves the use of several
tankless coils piped in parallel, emptying into a large
storage tank, and is typically used in larger DHW
production applications, such as hotel showers and
laundries. See Figure 42a for recommended piping
and wiring details for this type of application.
The tempering valve and recirculation loop are
advantageous in these applications, because they
provide both high temperature and tempered
domestic water to the system, eliminating the need
to purge and waste water until it reaches the desired
temperature. In the case where the boiler is used
for domestic production only, and there is no space
heating involved, a destratication pump is utilized
to provide ow within the boiler. This ow acts as
a means of preventing the hot water from stratifying
at the top of the boiler. Destratication pump ow
rates are given in the table in Figure 42a.
NOTICE
When possible, domestic hot water production should utilize a dedicated boiler(s). This will allow the other
boiler(s) to be shut down and isolated during the summer months. If the boiler load is shared between
heating and domestic hot water, then one needs to determine if a hot water priority is required. If a priority
is not selected, erratic domestic hot water production may result during the beginning and end of every
heating season. Conversely, a priority for domestic hot water production may cause a signicant heating
zone activation delay, in an improperly balanced system. Parallel piping conversions may require isolation
from the heating system to prevent system ow inuence on DHW performance. Consult a qualied system
heating professional to design for the proper application.
44
Figure 41: Schematic Tankless Heater Piping
3. Hot Water Boiler/Indirect Water Heater - The use
of indirect water heaters for domestic hot water
generation is common and somewhat advantageous
over tankless coils alone, since they also provide
DHW storage. A tempering valve and recirculating
pump are again recommended for a dual temperature
system, to provide a constant temperature to the
xtures without waiting for cooler water to warm
up. Figure 42b shows a typical indirect heater
piping application with no space heating. Indirect
pump ow rates are calculated based on a 20°FDT.
Table V: Tankless Heater Ratings
NOTICE
DO NOT use the boiler circulator as an indirect
domestic hot water system circulator.
O. C ONNECT TANKLES S HEATE R PIPIN G as
shown in Figure 41. See Table V for Tankless Heater
Ratings.
THE FOLLOWING GUIDELINES SHOULD BE
FOLLOWED WHEN PIPING THE TANKLESS
HEATER:
1. Flow Regulation
If ow through the heater is greater than its rating,
the supply of adequate hot water may not be able to
keep up with the demand. For this reason a FLOW
REGULATOR matching the heater rating should be
installed in the cold waterline to the heater. Refer
to Figure 41 for piping recommendations. The ow
regulator should preferably be located below the
inlet to the heater and a minimum of 3 feet away
from the inlet so that the regulator is not subjected
to excess temperatures that may occur during “off”
periods when it is possible for heat to be conducted
back through the supply line. The ow regulator
also limits the ow of supply water regardless of
inlet pressure variations in the range of 20 to 125
psi.
2. Tempering of Hot Water
WARNING
Install a mixing valve at the tankless heater
outlet to avoid risk of burns or scalding due to
excessively hot water at xtures. Do not operate
the boiler when equipped with a tankless heater
unless mixing valve is operating properly.
Installation of a tempering or mixing valve will
also lengthen the delivery of the available hot
water by mixing some cold water with the hot. In
addition, savings of hot water will be achieved since
the user will not waste as much hot water while
seeking water temperatures to his liking. Higher
temperature hot water required by dishwashers and
automatic washers is possible by piping the hot
water from the heater prior to entering the mixing
valve. The mixing valve should be “trapped” by
installing it below the cold water inlet to heater to
prevent lime formation in the valve.
3. Flushing of Heater
All water contains some sediment which settles
on the inside of the coil. Consequently, the heater
should be periodically backwashed. This is
accomplished by installing hose bibs as illustrated
in Figure 41 and allowing water at city pressure to
45
run into hose bib A, through the heater, and out hose
bib B until the discharge is clear. The tees in which
the hose bibs are located should be the same size as
heater connections to minimize pressure drop.
4. HARD WATER - A water analysis is necessary to
determine the hardness of your potable water. This
is applicable to some city water and particularly to
well water. An appropriate water softener should
be installed based on the analysis and dealer's
recommendation. This is not only benecial to the
tankless heater but to piping and xtures plus the
many other benets derived from soft water.
P. INSTAL L ELECT RIC WIR ING in accordance
with National Electric Code and local regulations.
A separate ELECTRICAL CIRCUIT should be run
from meter with a Fused Disconnect Switch in this
Circuit.

RESET OPERATING CONTROL.
CAUTION
Probe and float type low water cutoff devices
require annual inspection and maintenance.
Refer to Section V, Paragraph (C) for proper cleaning
instructions.
WARNING
Chemicals used in treating boiler water are toxic
and/or harmful. Always use protective clothing
and equipment when working with/near chemicals.
Contact local authorities to determine if treated
boiler water can be discharged into local waste
water system.
1. Oil, greases & sediments which accumulate in a
new boiler and piping must be removed in order
to prevent an unsteady water line and carry over
of the water into the supply main above boiler.
Operate the boiler with steam in the entire system
for a few days allowing the condensate to return
to the boiler. If the condensate can temporarily be
wasted, operate boiler only for the length of time
it takes for condensate to run clear. If the latter
cannot be achieved or if the condensate is returned
to the boiler, boil out the boiler using the SURFACE
BLOWOFF connection. See Figure 43.
a. Drain boiler until water is just visible in gauge
glass. Run temporarily 1½” pipe line from the
surface blowoff connection to an open drain or
some other location where hot water may be
discharged safely. Do not install valve in this
line.
b. Add an appropriate amount of recommended
boilout compounds.
c. Start burner and operate sufciently to boil
the water without producing steam pressure.
Boil for about 5 hours. Open boiler feed pipe
sufciently to permit a steady trickle of water
from the surface blowoff pipe. Continue this
slow boiling and trickle of overow for several
hours until the water coming from the overow
is clear.
d. Stop burner and drain boiler in a manner and to
a location that hot water can be discharged with
safety.
e. Rell boiler to normal water line. If water in
gauge glass does not appear to be clear, repeat
51
steps (a. thru e.), and boil out the boiler for a
longer time.
2. Low pressure steam boilers such as the V11
Series should be maintained with appropriate
water treatment compounds. Add water treatment
compounds as recommended by your local qualied
water treatment company.
3. Remove temporary surface blowoff piping, plug
tapping and reinstall safety valve. Boil or bring
water temperature to 180°F promptly in order to
drive off the dissolved gases in the fresh water.
4. If unsteady water line, foaming or priming persist,
install gate valve in Hartford Loop and drain valves
in return main and at boiler and proceed as follows:
a. Connect hoses from drain valves to oor drain.
Close gate valve in Hartford Loop and open
drain valve in return main. Fill boiler to normal
water level, turn on burner and operate boiler
at this water level for at least 30 minutes after
the condensate begins to run hot, then turn off
burner.
Close all radiator valves. Remove all supply
main air valves and plug the openings in supply
main.
b. Draw about 5 gallons of hot water from boiler
into a container and dissolve into it appropriate
amount of a recommended boilout compound.
Remove safety valve and pour this solution into
boiler, then reinstall safety valve.
c. Turn on burner and keep operating while feeding
water to boiler slowly. This will raise water level
in boiler slowly so that water will be boiling hot
and will rise slowly into supply main and back
through return main, owing from drain hose
at about 180°F. Continue until water runs clear
from drain hose for at least 30 minutes.
d. Stop feeding water to boiler but continue
operating burner until excess water in boiler
ows out through supply main and water lowers
(by steaming) until it reaches normal level in
boiler. Turn off burner. Drain boiler. Open all
radiator valves. Reinstall all supply main air
valves. Open gate valve in Hartford Loop.
e. When boiler has cooled down sufciently (crown
sheet of sections are not too hot to touch), close
the drain valves at boiler and in return main and
feed water slowly up to normal level in boiler.
Turn on burner and allow boiler to steam for
10 minutes then turn off burner. Draw off one
quart of water from bottom gauge glass tting
and discard. Draw off another quart sample and
if this sample is not clear, repeat the cycle of
draining the boiler and return main and relling
the boiler until sample is clear.
f. If the boiler water becomes dirty again at a later
date due to additional sediment loosened up in
the piping, close gate valve in Hartford Loop,
open drain valve in return main, turn on burner
and allow condensate to ow to drain until it has
run clear for at least 30 minutes while feeding
water to boiler so as to maintain normal water
level. Turn off burner, drain boiler, open gate
valve in Hartford Loop, then repeat step (a)
above.
5. Make pH or Alkalinity Test.
After boiler and system have been cleaned and
relled as previously described, test the pH of
the water in the system. This can easily be done
by drawing a small sample of boiler water and
testing hydrion paper which is used in the same
manner as litmus paper, except it gives specic
readings. A color chart on the side of the small
hydrion dispenser gives the reading in pH.
Hydrion paper is inexpensive and obtainable
from any chemical supply house or through your
local druggist. The pH should be higher than 7,
but lower than 11. Add some appropriate water
treatment chemicals, if necessary to bring the
pH within the specied range.
6. Boiler is now ready to be put into service.
G. BOILER AND SYSTEM CLEANING -
WATER BOILERS
1. Filling of Boiler and System --- General --- In a hot
water heating system, the boiler and entire system
(other than the expansion tank) must be full of water
for satisfactory operation. Water should be added to
the system until the boiler pressure gauge registers
normal system design operating pressure. To insure
that the system is full, water should come out of all
air vents when opened.
2. Boiling Out of Boiler and System. The oil and
grease which accumulate in a new hot water boiler
can be washed out in the following manner.
a. Remove safety relief valve using extreme care to
avoid damaging it.
b. Add an appropriate amount of recommended
boilout compound.
c. Reinstall safety relief valve.
d. Fill the entire system with water.
e. Start ring the boiler.
f. Circulate the water through the entire system.
g. Vent the system, including the radiation.
h. Allow boiler water to reach operating
temperature, if possible.
i. Continue to circulate the water for a few hours.
j. Stop ring the boiler.
k. Drain the system in a manner and to a location
that hot water can be discharged with safety.
l. Remove plugs from all available returns and
wash the water side of the boiler as thoroughly as
possible, using a high-pressure water stream.
52
m. Rell the system with fresh water.
3. Add appropriate boiler water treatment compounds
as recommended by your local qualied water
treatment company.
4. Make pH or Alkalinity Test.
After boiler and system have been cleaned and
relled as previously described, test the pH of the
water in the system. This can easily be done by
drawing a small sample of boiler water and testing
with hydrion paper which is used in the same
manner as litmus paper, except it gives specic
readings. A color chart on the side of the small
hydrion dispenser gives the reading in pH. Hydrion
paper is inexpensive and obtainable from any
chemical supply house or thru your local druggist.
The pH should be higher than 7 but lower than 11.
Add some appropriate water treatment chemicals, if
necessary to bring the pH within the specied range.
With this lower level of protection, care must be
exercised to eliminate all of the free oxygen in the
system.
5. Boiler is now ready to be put into service.
H. FREQUENT WATER ADDITION
IMPORTANT
IF, DURING NORMAL OPERATION, IT IS NECESSARY
TO ADD WATER MORE FREQUENTLY THAN ONCE
A MONTH, CONSULT A QUALIFIED SERVICE
TECHNICIAN TO CHECK YOUR SYSTEM FOR
LEAKS.
A leaky system will increase the volume of make-up
water supplied to the boiler which can signicantly
shorten the life of the boiler. Entrained in make-up
water are dissolved minerals and oxygen. When the
fresh, cool make-up water is heated in the boiler the
minerals fall out as sediment and the oxygen escapes
as a gas. Both can result in reduced boiler life. The
accumulation of sediment can eventually isolate
the water from contacting the cast iron. When this
happens the cast iron in that area gets extremely hot
and eventually cracks. The presence of free oxygen
in the boiler creates a corrosive atmosphere which, if
the concentration becomes high enough, can corrode
the cast iron through from the inside. Since neither of
these failure types are the result of a casting defect the
warranty does not apply. Clearly it is in everyone’s best
interest to prevent this type of failure. The maintenance
of system integrity is the best method to achieve this.
I. OXYGEN CORROSION:
WARNING
Oxygen contamination of the boiler water will cause
corrosion of iron and steel boiler components, and
can lead to boiler failure. Burnham's standard
warranty does not cover problems caused by
oxygen contamination of boiler water or scale (lime)
build-up caused by frequent addition of water.
There are many possible causes of oxygen
contamination such as:
a. Addition of excessive make-up water as a
result of system leaks.
b. Absorption through open tanks and ttings.
c. Oxygen permeable materials in the
distribution system.
In order to ensure long product life, oxygen
sources should be eliminated. This can be
accomplished by taking the following measures:
a. Repairing system leaks to eliminate the need
for addition of make-up water.
b. Eliminating open tanks from the system.
c. Eliminating and/or repairing ttings which
allow oxygen absorption.
d. Use of non-permeable materials in the
distribution system.
e. Isolating the boiler from the system water by
installing a heat exchanger.

C. MAI NTENANC E OF LOW WATER CUTOFF
DEVICES
NOTICE
Probe and float type low water cutoff devices
require annual inspection and maintenance.
1. PROBE TYPE LOW WATER CUTOFF
Although these devices are solid state in their
operation, the probe is exposed to possible
contamination in the boiler water and subject to
fouling.
It is important to physically remove the probe from
the boiler tapping annually and inspect that probe
for accumulation of scale or sediment.
Follow these steps to inspect, clean and /or replace
the probe:
a. Turn off electric service to the boiler.
b. Drain boiler water to a level below the tapping
for the probe.
c. Disconnect wiring connections between the low
water cutoff control and the probe.
DANGER
Assure that the boiler is at zero pressure before
removing the LWCO probe. Do not rely on the
pressure gauge to indicate that the boiler is at
zero pressure. Open the safety valve to relieve
all internal pressure prior to proceeding. Safety
valve discharge piping must be piped such that
the potential for burns is eliminated.
d. Dismount the low water cutoff control from the
probe.
e. Unscrew the probe from the boiler tapping.
f. Inspect that portion of the probe that is exposed
to the boiler water for a scale or sediment
buildup.
g. Light deposits may be removed by wiping the
probe with a damp cloth. Wiping the probe
with a cloth soaked in vinegar will remove more
tenacious lime deposits. The most stubborn
deposits may be removed from the probe by
using a diluted amount (3 part of water to 1 part)
of phosphoric acid (H2PO4).
WARNING
Exercise caution when handling phosphoric acid
and follow the instructions on container label.
Always use protective clothing and equipment
when working with/near chemicals.
h. Wire brushing of the probe is not recommended
as the soft platinum guard ring sandwiched
between the ceramic insulators may be damaged.
Care must be taken not to damage this ring in
any way or the useful life of the probe may be
shortened.
i. Clean the pipe threads of the probe to remove
old, hardened pipe dope and other foreign matter.
j. Apply a moderate amount of good quality pipe
dope to the pipe threads on the probe, leaving the
two end threads bare. Do not use PTFE (Teon)
tape.
k. Screw the probe into the boiler tapping.
l. Mount the low water cutoff control on the probe.
m. Reconnect the control to probe wiring.
n. Fill the boiler to its normal waterline.
o. Add boiler water treatment compound as needed.
p. Restore electric service to the boiler.
q. Fire burner to bring the water in the boiler to a
boil to drive off free oxygen.
r. BEFORE RETURN ING BOI LER TO
SERVICE: Follow the low water cutoff check
out procedure on page 51.
2. FLOAT TYPE LOW WATER CUTOFF
During the heating season, if an external low water
cutoff is on the boiler, the blow off valve should
be opened once a month (use greater frequency
where conditions warrant), to ush out the sediment
chamber so the device will be free to function
properly.
Low water cutoffs and water feeders should be
dismantled annually by qualied personnel, to the
extent necessary to insure freedom from obstructions
and proper functioning of the working parts. Inspect
connecting lines to boiler for accumulation of
mud, scale, etc., and clean as required. Examine
55
all visible wiring for brittle or worn insulation and
make sure electrical contacts are clean and that they
function properly. Give special attention to solder
joints on bellows and oat when this type of control
is used. Check oat for evidence of collapse and
check mercury bulb (where applicable) for mercury
separation or discoloration. DO NOT ATTEMPT
TO REPAIR MECHANISMS IN THE FIELD.
Complete replacement mechanisms, including
necessary gaskets and installation instructions, are
available from the manufacturer.
D. CHECK BURNER AND CONTROLS at least once
a year. See Section IV, Paragraph (E) under Operating
Instructions for control checks. See Burner Manual for
burner tests and adjustments.
E. LUBRICATE BOILER COMPONENTS
according to manufacturer’s instructions. Generally,
this involves the oil burner and circulator. This includes
the type of lubricant to use, frequency of lubrication,
and points to lubricate.
F. GENERAL MAINTEN ANCE
CONSIDERATIONS
1. Keep radiators and convectors clean.
2. If a hot water radiator is hot at the bottom but not at
the top, it indicates that air has accumulated inside
and should be vented. To vent radiator, hold small
cup under air vent (located near top of radiator),
open vent until water escapes and then close.
3. If much water is added to system, it is advisable to
heat system to a high temperature and vent again.
This will make less venting necessary during the
winter.
4. Where an expansion tank is used, make sure that
neither the tank nor its drain pipe is exposed to
freezing temperatures. Never place valves in piping
leading to or from expansion tank.
5. Boiler and system cleaning will help assure trouble
free operation. See Section IV, Paragraphs (F and
G) under Operating Instructions for procedure.
G. ATTENTION TO BOILER WHILE NOT IN
OPERATION
WARNING
If boiler is not used during winter time, it must be
fully drained to prevent freeze damage.
1. Spray inside surfaces with light lubricating or
crankcase oil using gun with extended stem so as to
reach all corners.
2. With steam boilers, at end of season add sufcient
water to ll boiler to top of water column and leave
it that way until fall when water should be drained
again to proper level. If at this time boiler water is
dirty, drain water, ush out boiler, and rell with
clean water to prescribed water level.
3. Always keep the manual fuel supply valve shut off
if the burner is shut down for an extended period of
time.
4. To recondition the heating system in the fall season
after a prolonged shut down, follow the instructions
outlined in Section IV - Operating Instructions,
Paragraphs (B) through (E).
