DANGER:

I al injury, death or substantial property damage if ignored.

WARNING:

CAUTION:

NOTE:

DANGER: Make sure the gas on which the heater

will operate is the same type as that specified on the heater rating plate.

WARNING: Should overheating occur or the gas supply valve fail to shut, do not turn off or disconnect the electrical supply to the heater. Instead, shut off the gas supply at a location external to the heater.

WARNING - CALIFORNIA PROPOSITION 65: This product contains chemicals known to the

State of California to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm.

WARNING: To minimize the possibility of improper operation, serious personal injury, fire, or damage to the heater:

Indicates the presence of hazards or unsafe practices which could cause severe personal injury, death or substantial property damage if ignored.

Indicates the presence of hazards or unsafe practices which could cause minor personal injury or product or property damage if ignored.

Indicates special instructions on installation, operation, or maintenance which are important but not related to personal injury hazards.

WARNING: Both natural gas and propane have an odorant added to aid in detecting a gas leak. Some people may not physically be able to smell or recognize this odorant. If you are unsure or unfamiliar with the smell of natural gas or propane, ask your local gas supplier. Other conditions, such as "odorant fade," which causes the odorant to diminish in intensity, can also hide, camouflage, or otherwise make detecting a gas leak by smell more difficult.

WARNING: UL recognized fuel gas detectors are recommended in all enclosed propane and natural gas applications wherein there is a potential for an explosive mixture of fuel gas to accumulate and their installation should be in accordance with the detector manufacturer's recommendations and/or local laws, rules, regulations, or customs.

• Always keep the area around the heater free of combustible materials, gasoline, and other flammable liquids and vapors.

• Heater should never be covered or have any blockage to the flow of fresh air to the heater.

WARNING: Do not use this heater if any part has been under water. Immediately call a qualified service technician to inspect the heater and to replace any part of the control system and any gas control which has been under water.

WARNING: All venting types must be of the same material or product throughout the entire exhaust installation to ensure proper securing and sealing.

WARNING: Risk of electrical shock. More than one disconnect switch may be required to deenergize the equipment before servicing.

CAUTION: Operation of this heater in lowtemperature systems requires special piping. Harmful internal condensation will occur if the inlet water temperature does not exceed 105°F. Warranty claims will be denied when condensation occurs.

CAUTION: If this heater is to be installed above radiation level, it must be provided with a low water cut-off device at the time of heater installation.

CAUTION: If this heater is to be installed in a negative or positive pressure equipment room, there are special installation requirements. Consult factory for details.

o meet commercial hot water use needs, the high

T limit safety control on this water heater is adjustable up to 210°F. However, water temperatures over 125°F can cause instant severe burns or death from scalds. When supplying general purpose hot water, the recommended initial setting for the temperature control is 125°F.

Safety and energy conservation are factors to be considered when setting the water temperature on the thermostat. The most energy-efficient operation will result when the temperature setting is the lowest that satisfies the needs of the application.

Water temperature over 125°F can cause instant severe burns or death from scalds. Children, disabled and elderly are at highest risk of being scalded.

• Feel water before bathing or showering.

• Temperature limiting valves are available.

NOTE: When this water heater is supplying general purpose hot water for use by individuals, a thermostatically controlled mixing valve for reducing point of use water temperature is recommended to reduce the risk of scald injury. Contact a licensed plumber or the local plumbing authority for further information.

Maximum water temperatures occur just after the heater’s burner has shut off. To determine the water temperature being delivered, turn on a hot water faucet and place a thermometer in the hot water stream and read the thermometer.

Time/Temperature Relationships in Scalds

The following chart 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.

To adjust the water temperature, insert a small straight screwdriver into the adjustment screw on the front of temperature controller and turn the wheel to the desired setting (See Fig. 4.).

Equipment Base

he heater should be mounted on a level, structurally

T sound surface. The heater is approved for installation on a combustible surface but must NEVER be installed on carpeting. Gas-fueled equipment installed

n enclosed parking garages must be located at least

i 18 in. above the floor.

Stacking

Hi Delta units can be stacked two units high with an optional stacking rack. A stacking kit is available from Raypak for this type of installation.

CAUTION: The heaters should be located in an area where water leakage will not result in damage to the area adjacent to the appliances or to the structure. When such locations cannot be avoided, it is recommended that a suitable catch pan, adequately drained, be installed under the appliance. The pan must not restrict air flow.

Clearances

Indoor Installations

* DO NOT install on carpeting.

When installed according to the listed minimum clearances from combustible construction, these heaters can still be serviced without removing permanent structural construction around the heater. However, for ease of servicing, we recommend a clearance of at least 24 in. in front, and at least 12 in. on the water connection side. This will allow the heater to be serviced in its installed location without movement or removal of the heater.

Service clearances less than the minimums may require removal of the heater to service either the heat exchanger or the burner tray. In either case, the heater must be installed in a manner that will enable the heater to be serviced without removing any structure around the heater.

Outdoor Installations

These heaters are design-certified for outdoor installation. Heaters must not be installed under an overhang that is less than 3 ft from the top of the heater. Three sides must be open in the area under the overhang. Roof water drainage must be diverted away from heaters installed under overhangs.

Direct Vent

If outside air is drawn through the intake pipe directly to the unit for combustion:

Fig. 8: Minimum Clearances from Combustible

Surfaces – Outdoor Installations

Combustion and Ventilation Air

NOTE: Use of the heater in construction areas

where fine particulate matter, such as concrete or drywall dust, is present may result in damage to the heater that is not covered by the warranty. If operated in a construction environment, a clean source of combustion air must be provided directly to the heater.

Indoor Units

The heater must be supplied with sufficient quantities of non-contaminated air to support proper combustion and equipment ventilation. Combustion air can be supplied via conventional means where combustion air is drawn from the area immediately surrounding the heater, or via direct vent, where combustion air is drawn directly from outside. All installations must comply with the requirements of the NFGC (U.S.) and B149 (Canada), and all local codes.

CAUTION: Combustion air must not be contaminated by corrosive chemical fumes which can damage the heater and void the warranty. (See the Appendix.)

NOTE: It is recommended that the intake vent be insulated to minimize sweating.

Reversing Air Filter

1. Install combustion air direct vent in accordance

with Fig. 26 (horizontal) or Fig. 27 (vertical) of this manual (pages 31 and 32, respectively).

2. Ventilation of the space occupied by the heater(s)

is recommended and can be provided by an opening(s) for ventilation air at the highest practical point communicating with the outdoors. The total cross-sectional area should be at least 1 in.2of free area per 20,000 BTUH (111 mm2per kW) of total input rating of all equipment in the room when the opening is communicating directly with the outdoors or through vertical duct(s). The total cross-sectional area should be at least 1 in.2of free area per 10,000 BTUH (222 mm2per kW) of total input rating of all equipment in the room when the opening is communicating with the outdoors through horizontal duct(s). Damage to the equipment due to inadequate ventilation of the space is not a warrantable failure.

3. In cold climates, and to mitigate potential freeze-

up, Raypak highly recommends the installation of a motorized sealed damper to prevent the circulation of cold air through the heater during the non-operating hours.

Direct-Ducted Combustion Air

In certain applications it may be desirable to duct the combustion air directly to the heater. This should be done with PVC, CPVC or single-wall galvanized ducting. The duct will attach directly to the collar on the air filter housing located on the side of the heater. The ducting is attached to the air filter housing collar using

Follow these instructions to change the air duct connection from the left-hand side (standard) to the right-hand side:

three or four sheet metal screws (not supplied) equally distributed around the circumference of the duct. All ducting should be self-supported. The filter housing is not designed to support the air duct.

CAUTION: Use TrueSeal combustion air if damaging airborne contaminants are or will be present in the heater area. See the Appendix regarding air contamination.

TruSeal™ Combustion Air

In certain applications it may be necessary to utilize the TruSeal option (sales order option D-21 or D-22) and duct the combustion air directly to the blower. Combustion air may be ducted directly to the heater by using PVC, CPVC or sealed single-wall galvanized ducting. The duct will attach directly to the air collar located on the side of the heater, using three or four sheet metal screws (not supplied) equally positioned around the circumference of the duct. The screws and duct connection point must be sealed with RTV (not supplied). An in-line intake air filter kit (sales order option D-17) must be installed in the combustion air duct. TruSeal is generally used when damaging contaminants are present in the mechanical room.

Water Piping

NOTE: For 87%-efficiency boilers, see special

instructions on page 41.

General

The heater should be located so that any water leaks

will not cause damage to the adjacent area or structures.

CAUTION: This heater requires forced water circulation when the burner is operating. See Table H and Table I for minimum and maximum flow rates and water pump selection. The pump must be interlocked with the heater to prevent heater operation without water circulation.

NOTE: Minimum pipe size for in/out connections is 2 in. Verify proper flow rates and ∆T as instructed in this manual.

Reversing Water Connections

Follow these instructions to change the water connections from the left-hand side (standard) to the right-hand side.

1. Disconnect all electrical power from the heater (if applicable).

3. For heaters not using a barometric damper in the vent system, and when air supply is provided by natural air flow from outdoors for a power burner and there is no draft regulator, drafthood or similar flue gas dilution device installed in the same space, in addition to the opening for ventilation air required in 1., there shall be a permanent air supply opening(s) having a total cross-sectional area

2. Label all electrical connections and conduit lines. This may include the flow switch, low water cut-off probe and/or pump.

3. Disconnect or isolate the main gas pipe from the heater (if applicable).

4. Remove both in/out and return header access panels by removing all sheet metal screws.

5. Remove all plumbing fittings to the header. This will include both inlet and outlet water pipe unions and the pressure relief valve and drain piping.

6. Remove limits, control bulbs and/or thermocouples.

7. Remove the six flange nuts and the in/out header from the left-hand side.

8. Remove the six flange nuts and the return header from the right-hand side.

9. Remove the header stud bolts from each tube sheet.

10. Reverse the headers and stud bolts to the new location.

11. Install NEW red beveled O-rings flush against both tube sheets with the bevel facing outward.

12. Push the header firmly against the O-rings. Install and tighten the flange nuts onto the stud bolts until finger tight.

13. Slowly tighten the flange nuts, starting from the center nut (number 1) in Fig. 9 and working sequentially around the header as indicated. Torque all nuts to 25 ft/lb. DO NOT OVER-TIGHTEN.

Hydrostatic Test

Unlike many types of heaters, this heater does not re-

uire hydrostatic testing prior to being placed in

q operation. The heat exchanger has already been factory-tested and is rated for 160 psi operating pressure. However, Raypak does recommend hydrostatic test-

ng of the piping connections to the heater and the rest

i of the system prior to operation. This is particularly true for hydronic systems using expensive glycolbased anti-freeze. Raypak recommends conducting the hydrostatic test before connecting gas piping or electrical supply.

Leaks must be repaired at once to prevent damage to the heater. NEVER use petroleum-based stop-leak compounds.

To perform hydrostatic test:

1. Connect fill water supply. With bleed valve open, fill heater with water. When water flows from bleed valve, shut off water. Close bleed valve. Carefully fill the rest of the system, making sure to eliminate any entrapped air by using high-point vents. Close feed valve. Test at standard operating pressure for at least 24 hours.

2. Make sure constant gauge pressure has been maintained throughout test.

14. Re-route the capillary(s), wiring etc. to the new location, adding thermal paste and shim to the capillary well.

Relief Valve Piping

WARNING: Pressure relief valve discharge piping

must be piped near the floor and close to a drain to eliminate the potential of severe burns. Do not pipe to any area where freezing could occur. Refer to local codes.

3. Check for leaks. Repair if found.

Cold Water Operation

CAUTION: Damaging internal condensation may

occur if the heater inlet water temperature does not exceed 105ºF (41ºC) within 7 minutes of start-up.

NOTE: See Raypak Catalog No. 1000.57 for information on Cold Water Protection.

A heater operated with an inlet temperature of less than 105ºF (41ºC) must have a manual bypass or an approved low-temperature operation system to prevent problems with condensation. A manual bypass, shown in Fig. 15, must be piped into the system at the time of installation. This piping is like a primary/secondary boiler installation with a bypass acting as the secondary boiler piping. Raypak strongly recommends that thermometer(s) be placed into the heater piping next to the in/out header to facilitate temperature adjustment. Inlet water temperatures below 105ºF (41ºC) can excessively cool the products of combustion, resulting in condensation on the heat exchanger and in the flue.

Failure to exceed 105ºF (41ºC) within 7 minutes may result in the premature failure of the hot surface igniter, remote flame sensor, burners and heat exchanger. It can cause operational problems, bad combustion, sooting, flue gas spillage and reduced service life of the vent system. The bypass allows part of the heater discharge water to be mixed with the cooler heater return water to increase the heater inlet temperature above 105ºF (41ºC). This precautionary measure should prevent the products of combustion from condensing in most installations. Warranty claims will be

denied when condensation occurs.

Cold water operation issues are applicable to both cold water start and cold water run applications. Cold water operation for 7 minutes or less on start-up is acceptable. Where cold water starts will last longer than 7 minutes or where cold water operation is continuous, provisions must be made to mix higher temperature outlet water with the colder inlet water and thereby raise the inlet temperature to at least 105ºF (41ºC) within the 7-minute time limit.

Cold Water Starts

old Water Run

old water run differs from cold water start in that the

C system water entering the heater remains below 105ºF

41ºC) continuously. Typically, this is the case in swim-

( ming pool heating and water source heat pump applications as well as some others. If the system water is kept in a narrow temperature range, a permanent manual bypass can be employed and manually adjusted to achieve an inlet temperature of 105ºF (41ºC) or higher. An injector pump arrangement may also be utilized to keep the heater loop at or above 105ºF (41ºC). An injector pump approach has the added value of being able to adjust to changes in the system water coming back to the heater take-off.

NOTE: To ensure proper operation, use 20°F ∆T boiler flow rates when designing the heating system loop pump.

Temperature & Pressure Gauge

The temperature and pressure gauge is factorymounted in the in/out header.

Frequent (more than once a week) cold water starts, wherein the inlet water temperature remains below 105ºF (41ºC) for more than 7 minutes, must have cold water start protection. Known protection methods consist of mixing heated outlet water with the inlet water with a bypass to raise the inlet to 105ºF (41ºC) or higher. Once the system is heated up and has return water temperatures of 105ºF (41ºC) or higher, the mixing of outlet water with inlet water is no longer needed and the bypass can be shut off. If the bypass is not shut off as the system heats up, the outlet temperature may continue to climb and actuate the high limit, thereby shutting down the heater. Thus an automatic valve system, such as a three-way proportional valve or a modulating two-way valve to control the bypass, should be utilized.

NOTE: Individual and multi-boiler Cold Water Start systems require the use of a 20°F ∆T boiler pump.

Hydronic Heating

System Design

How water heating systems all have unique levels of operating diversity. Raypak equipment design utilizes as little water mass as possible to ensure maximum operating efficiency. Primary / Secondary piping arrangement is the method recommended and the only method supported by Raypak for installtion of Raypak heating equipment. Proper system design should always include system flow in excess of the connected boiler flow for proper operation. When appropriate, a Buffer/De-coupler Tank can be used where system flow may be reduced below the connected boiler flow. Failure to design for adequate system flow (i.e. bypasses, 3-way control valves, flow limiting balance devices, buffer tanks, etc.) will result in boiler short cycling and poor system performance. Always contact your local Raypak representative for sytem design assistance to avoid these issues.

Pump Selection

In order to ensure proper performance of your heater system, you must install a correctly sized pump. Raypak recommends using a 20°F ∆T as design ∆T. (∆T is the temperature difference between the inlet and outlet water when the heater is firing at full rate). If a ∆T of larger than 20°F is necessary, see Table H and Table I for flow rate requirements.

Table H: Heater Rates of Flow and Pressure Drops

Pressure Drop in Feet of Head Feedwater Regulator

Raypak recommends that a feedwater regulator be installed and set at 12 psi minimum pressure at the highest point of the system. Install a check valve or back flow device upstream of the regulator, with a manual shut-off valve as required by local codes.

Piping

All high points should be vented. Purge valves and a bypass valve should be installed. A heater installed above radiation level must be provided with a low water cut-off device (sales order option F-10). The heater, when used in connection with a refrigeration system, must be installed so that the chilled medium is piped in parallel with the heater with appropriate valves to prevent the chilled medium from entering the heater.

The piping system of a hot water heater connected to heating coils located in air handling units where they may be exposed to circulating refrigerated air, must be equipped with flow control valves or other automatic means to prevent gravity circulation of the heater water during the cooling cycle. It is highly recommended that the piping be insulated.

Three-Way Valves

Valves designed to blend water temperatures or reduce water circulation through the heater should not be used. Raypak heaters are high-recovery, low-mass heaters which are not subject to thermal shock. Raypak offers a full line of electronic sequencers that produce direct reset of heater water temperature. (Refer to the Controls section of the Raypak Catalog.)

1. All piping materials and components connected to the water heater for the space heating application shall be suitable for use with potable water.

2. Toxic chemicals, such as used for boiler treatment, shall not be introduced into the potable water used for space heating.

3. If the heater will be used to supply potable water, it shall not be connected to any heating system or components previously used with a non-potable water heating appliance.

4. When the system requires water for space heating at temperatures higher than 140°F, a means such as a mixing valve shall be installed to temper the water in order to reduce scald hazard potential.

Domestic Hot Water

When designing the water piping system for domestic hot water applications, water hardness should be considered. Table I indicates the suggested flow rates for soft, medium and hard water. Water hardness is expressed in grains per gallon. Water softened as low as 0 to 3 grains per gallon is known to be aggressive and corrosive.

Fig. 13: Single Domestic Hot Water Heater and Storage

Tank

Pool Heating

CAUTION: Power to the heater should be

interlocked with the main system pump to make sure the heater does not fire without the main system pump in operation. Improper flow control can damage the heater. Uncontrolled flow (too high) or restricted flow (too low) can seriously damage the heater. Follow these instructions to make sure your heater is properly installed.

The Hi Delta pool heater is equipped with an external pump and bypass arrangement as standard equipment. This arrangement blends outlet water with the inlet water to increase the inlet water temperature, thereby reducing the likelihood of condensation forming on the heat exchanger. The pump also serves to

MIXING VALVE

Fig. 14: Single Pool Heater Application

circulate water through the heater from the main system piping.

A thermostatically controlled mixing valve is used to mix the outlet water with the pool water. This mixed water is supplied as the inlet water to the pool heater. The proper configuration is shown in Fig. 15. The active element of the valve adjusts the mixing ratio to maintain the inlet water above 105°F.

To complete the installation of the pool heater, the pool thermostat needs to be installed in the main return water line, upstream of the heater. This will ensure that

Fig. 15: Mixing Valve Configuration

the heater will be energized at the right time. If the main water line is too far away from the heater and the capillary bulb will not reach it, locate the pool thermostat adjacent to the main line and run wires back to the heater.

heater and any piping of all water that may experience below-freezing temperatures.

CAUTION: Combustion air must not be contaminated by corrosive chemical fumes which can damage the heater and void the warranty.

All chemicals must be introduced and completely diluted into the pool or spa water before being circulated through the heater. Do not place chlorine tablets or bromine sticks in the skimmer. High chemical concentrations will result when the pump is not running (e.g. overnight).

Chlorinators must feed downstream of the heater and have an anti-siphoning device to prevent chemical back-up into the heater when the pump is shut off.

NOTE: High chemical concentrates from feeders and chlorinators that are out of adjustment will cause very rapid corrosion of the heat exchanger in the heater. Such damage is not covered under the warranty.

Winterizing Your Heater

Heaters installed outdoors in freezing climate areas should be shut down for the winter. To shut down heater, turn off manual main gas valve and main gas shut-off. Close isolation valves and remove water piping from the in/out header on the heater. Drain the

Pool/Spa Water Chemistry

OT E: Chemical imbalance can cause severe

damage to your heater and associated equipment.

Water Hardness

Water hardness is mainly due to the presence of calcium and magnesium salts dissolved in the water. The concentration of these salts is expressed in mg/l, ppm or grains per gallon, as a measure of relative hardness of water. Grains per gallon is the common reference measurement used in the U.S. water heater industry. Hardness expressed as mg/L or ppm may be divided by 17.1 to convert to grains per gallon. Water may be classified as very soft, slightly hard, moderately hard or hard based on its hardness number. The salts in water will precipitate out when the water is heated and will cause accelerated lime and scale accumulation on a heat transfer surface.

Raypak water heaters can operate lime/scale-free using potable water with a hardness not exceeding 25 grains per gallon. Proper operation is achieved by setting the temperature rise/water flow per the guidelines in the installation instructions. If the hardness of the water exceeds the maximum level of 25 grains per gallon special measures must be taken to adjust flow and temperature rise. Water should be softened to a hard-

ness level no lower than 5 grains per gallon. Water softened as low as 0 to 1 grain per gallon may be

nder-saturated with respect to calcium carbonate

u resulting in water that is aggressive and corrosive.

pH of Water

pH is a measure of relative acidity, neutrality or alkalinity. Dissolved minerals and gases affect water’s pH. The pH scale ranges from 0 to 14. Water with a pH of

7.0 is considered neutral. Water with a pH lower than 7 is considered acidic. Water with a pH higher than 7 is considered alkaline. A neutral pH (around 7) is desirable for most potable water applications. Corrosion damage and water heater failures resulting from water pH levels of lower than 6 or higher than 8 are non-warrantable. The ideal pH range for water used in a storage tank or a copper water heater system is 7.2 to

7.8.

Gas Supply

DANGER: Make sure the gas on which the heater

will operate is the same type as specified on the heater’s rating plate.

Gas piping must have a sediment trap ahead of the

eater gas controls, and a manual shut-off valve lo-

h cated outside the heater jacket. It is recommended that a union be installed in the gas supply piping adjacent to the heater for servicing. A pounds-to-inches regulator must be installed to reduce the gas supply pressure to a maximum of 10.5 in. WC for natural gas and 13.0 in. WC for propane gas. The regulator should be placed a minimum distance of 10 times the pipe diameter up-stream of the heater gas controls. Refer to Table K for maximum pipe lengths.

Gas Supply Connection

Total Dissolved Solids

Total dissolved solids (TDS) is the measure of all minerals and solids that are dissolved in the water. The concentration of total dissolved solids is usually expressed in parts per million (ppm) as measured in a water sample. Water with a high TDS concentration will greatly accelerate lime and scale formation in the hot water system. Most high TDS concentrations will precipitate out of the water when heated. This can generate a scale accumulation on the heat transfer surface that will greatly reduce the service life of a water heater. This scale accumulation can also impede adequate flow of water and may totally block the water passages in the tubes of the heat exchanger. A heat exchanger that is damaged or blocked by lime/scale accumulation must be replaced. Failure of a water heater due to lime scale build up on the heating surface is non-warrantable. The manufacturer of the water heater has no control of the water quality, especially the TDS levels in your system. Total dissolved solids in excess of 2,500 ppm will accelerate lime and scale formation in the heat exchanger. Heat exchanger failure due to total dissolved solids in excess of 2,500 ppm is a non-warrantable condition. Raypak offers basic temperature guidelines for operation of a potable water heater on normal to moderate levels of hardness and solids but levels of hardness and total dissolved solids beyond normal limits for operation will require special setup and operation.

CAUTION: The heater must be disconnected from the gas supply during any pressure testing of the gas supply system at test pressures in excess of 1/2 psi (3.45 kPa).

The heater must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing the manual shut-off valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psi (3.45 kPa). Relieve test pressure in the gas supply line prior to reconnecting the heater and its manual shut-off valve to the gas supply line. FAILURE TO FOLLOW

THIS PROCEDURE MAY DAMAGE THE GAS VALVES. Over pressurized gas valves are not cov-

ered by warranty. The heater and its gas connections shall be leak-tested before placing the appliance in operation. Use soapy water for leak test. DO NOT use an open flame.

NOTE: Failure of a heat exchanger due to lime scale build-up on the heating surface, low pH or other chemical imbalance is non-warrantable.

Fig. 16: Gas Supply Connection

CAUTION: Do not use Teflon tape on gas line pipe

hread. A pipe compound rated for use with natural

t and propane gases is recommended. Apply sparingly only on male pipe ends, leaving the two end threads bare.

9. Install a coupling, nipple, union and sediment trap onto the right-hand end of the main gas line and then install the gas line, making sure that a manu-

l shut-off valve has been installed within 10 ft of

a the heater.

CAUTION: Support gas supply piping with hangers, not by the heater or its accessories. Make sure the gas piping is protected from physical damage and freezing, where required.

Reversing Gas Supply Connection

Reversing the standard fuel connection from the lefthand to the right-hand side is a simple field operation.

1. Disconnect all electrical power from the heater (if applicable).

2. Disconnect the main gas pipe from the heater (if applicable).

3. Remove the left and right front panels from the heater.

4. Locate the main gas line that traverses across the heater above the manifold risers.

5. Remove the pipe cap from the right-hand end of the main gas line.

10. Replace the left and right front panels on the eater.

Gas Supply Pressure

A minimum of 5.0 in. WC upstream gas pressure under full load and a maximum gas supply pressure set point of 10.5 in. WC under load and no-load conditions are required for natural gas. A minimum of 11.0 in. WC upstream gas pressure under full load and a maximum gas supply pressure set point of 13.0 in. WC are required for propane gas. The gas pressure regulator(s) supplied on the heater is for low-pressure service. If upstream pressure exceeds 14.0 in. WC (1/2 psi) at any time, an intermediate gas pressure regulator, of the lockup type, must be installed.

When connecting additional gas utilization equipment to the gas piping system, the existing piping must be checked to determine if it has adequate capacity for the combined load.

6. Reinstall the pipe cap on the left-hand end of the main gas line.

7. Remove plastic cap from the right-hand side panel and reinstall into the standard main gas opening located on the left-hand side of the heater.

8. Remove the rubber grommet from the left-handside panel and reinstall into the standard main gas opening, located on the right-hand side of the heater.

CAUTION: For proper operation, no more than a 30% drop in gas supply pressure from no-load to fullload conditions is acceptable. Under no circumstances should the pressure be outside the listed operational range.

Electrical Power Connections

Installations must follow these codes:

• National Electrical Code and any other national, state, provincial or local codes or regulations having jurisdiction.

• Safety wiring must be NEC Class 1.

• Heater must be electrically grounded as required by the NEC.

• In Canada, CSA C22. 1 C.E.C. Part 1.

NOTE: Field-supplied isolation relays should be

nstalled when field-connected controllers are

i mounted more than 50 equivalent feet (18 Ga) from heater.

Check the Power Source

WARNING: Using a multi-meter, check the

following voltages at the terminal block inside the unit. Make sure proper polarity is followed and house ground is proven. (See Fig. 18.)

Fig. 18: Wiring Connections

Check the power source:

The heater is wired for 120 VAC, 8 amps in its basic configuration. Additional options may increase the amp draw of the unit. The voltage is indicated on the

AC = 108 VAC Minimum, 132 VAC MAX AB = 108 VAC Minimum, 132 VAC MAX

BC = <1 VAC Maximum tie-in leads. Consult the wiring diagram shipped with the heater in the instruction packet. The remote tank control stat, thermostat, or electronic heater control (as applicable) may be connected to the stage selector terminal (See wiring diagram). 24 VAC is supplied to this connection through the heater trans-former. DO

NOT attach any voltage to the stage selector terminals. Before starting the heater check to ensure

proper voltage to the heater and pump.

Install a separate disconnect means for each load. Use appropriately sized wire as defined by NEC, CSA and/or local code. All primary wiring should be at least 125% of minimum rating.

Fig. 19: Multi-meter

If any of the original wire as supplied with the heater must be replaced, it must be replaced with 105°C wire or its equivalent.

If the heater does not have a factory-wired stage con-

troller, it is factory-wired in an on-off configuration with

other stage terminals jumpered.

Field-Connected Controllers

It is strongly recommended that all individually-powered control modules and the heater should be supplied from the same power source.

To field-connect a stage controller, remove factory-

installed jumpers and wire stage controller as shown in

Fig. 21.

Making the Electrical Connections

Refer to Fig. 18-23.

1. Verify that circuit breaker is properly sized by referring to heater rating plate. A dedicated circuit breaker should be provided.

AUTION: Label all wires prior to disconnection

when servicing controls. Wiring errors can cause im-

roper and dangerous operation. Verify proper

p operation after servicing.

AUTION: For pumps larger than 3/4 HP, a

separate circuit breaker may be required.

2. Turn off all power to the heater. Verify that power has been turned off by testing with a multi-meter

prior to working with any electrical connections or

components.

3. Observe proper wire colors while making electrical connections. Many electronic controls are polarity sensitive. Components damaged by improper electrical installation are not covered by warranty.

4. Provide overload protection and a disconnect means for equipment serviceability as required by local and state code.

5. Install heater controls, thermostats, or building management systems in accordance with the applicable manufacturers’ instructions.

6. Conduit should not be used as the earth ground.

Field Wiring Connection

NOTE: A grounding electrode conductor shall be

used to connect the equipment grounding conductors, the equipment enclosures, and the grounded service conductor to the grounding electrode.

DANGER: SHOCK HAZARD

Make sure electrical power to the heater is disconnected to avoid potential serious injury or damage to components.

ou must make a closed contact connection on Stage

Y 1 connector of the Central Point Wiring (CPW) board

or temperature control connections. This will be done

f based on the controller option selected with your heater order.

1. For Pool and Closed-Loop Water-Source Heat Pump applications, your heater should be configured to operate in an on-off firing mode. This means that you will connect a single-pole control to stage one of the CPW board. Then jumper the remaining firing stages. For example, if your heater is a Model 902B, you will jumper stages two, three and four. Then your heater will either be on at full fire, or it will be off.

2. For 2-stage controller connections, connect each stage of the control to the corresponding stage of the CPW board in the heater, i.e., stage 1 of the heater to stage 1 of the control; stage 2 of the heater to stage 2 of the control, as shown in Fig. 21 and 22. Set the operating control to the setpoint at which you want the heater to maintain. Ensure that the sensing bulb of the control is at the point in the system that will best maintain the temperature you want. For example, when you are heating a tank of water, you want the operating control sensor bulb in the tank.

3. For single-stage controller connections, attach the stage 1 connections on heater 1 to the tankstat per Fig. 23.

Heater must be electrically grounded in accordance with the NEC, and CSA C22.1 C.E.C. Part 1 in Canada.

Fig. 23: Single-Stage Tankstat

Consult the wiring diagram shipped with the heater in the instruction packet or at the end of this section. The stage-selector terminals are for the remote tank control through the heater’s 24 VAC transformer. DO NOT

attach any voltage to the stage-selector terminals.

Before starting the heater, check to ensure proper voltage to the heater and pump.

pplication on a Category III or IV vent system.

a Using improper venting materials can result in personal injury, death or property damage.

Support of Vent Stack

Appliance Categories

Heaters are divided into four categories based on the pressure produced in the exhaust and the likelihood of condensate production in the vent.

Category I – A heater which operates with a non-positive vent static pressure and with a vent gas temperature that avoids excessive condensate production in the vent.

Category II – A heater which operates with a non-positive vent static pressure and with a vent gas temperature that may cause excessive condensate production in the vent.

Category III – A heater which operates with a positive vent pressure and with a vent gas temperature that avoids excessive condensate production in the vent.

Category IV – A heater which operates with a positive vent pressure and with a vent gas temperature that may cause excessive condensate production in the vent.

See Table M for appliance category requirements.

The weight of the vent stack or chimney must not rest on the heater vent connection. Support must be provided in compliance with applicable codes. The vent should also be installed to maintain proper clearances from combustible materials.

Use insulated vent pipe spacers where the vent passes through combustible roofs and walls.

Vent Terminal Location

NOTE: During winter months check the vent cap

and make sure no blockage occurs from build-up of snow or ice.

1. Condensate can freeze on the vent cap. Frozen condensate on the vent cap can result in a blocked flue condition.

2. Give special attention to the location of the vent termination to avoid possibility of property damage or personal injury.

3. Gases may form a white vapor plume in winter. The plume could obstruct a window view if the termination is installed near windows.

NOTE: For additional information on appliance categorization, see appropriate ANSI Z21 Standard and the NFGC (U.S.), or B149 (Canada), or applicable provisions of local building codes.

CAUTION: When condensate traps are installed, condensate must be routed to an appropriate container for neutralization before disposal, as required by local codes.

CAUTION: Condensate is acidic and highly corrosive.

CAUTION: When condensate traps are installed, condensate must be routed to an appropriate container for neutralization before disposal, as required by local codes.

4. Prevailing winds, in combination with below-freezing temperatures, can cause freezing of condensate and water/ice build-up on buildings, plants or roofs.

5. The bottom of the vent terminal and the air intake shall be located at least 12 in. above grade, including normal snow line.

6. Un-insulated single-wall metal vent pipe shall not be used outdoors in cold climates for venting gasfired equipment.

7. Through-the-wall vents for Category II and IV appliances and non-categorized condensing appliances shall not terminate over public walkways or

ver an area where condensate or vapor could

o create a nuisance or hazard or could be detrimental to the operation of regulators, relief valves, or other equipment. Where local experience indi-

ates that condensate is a problem with Category

c I and III appliances, this provision shall also apply.

8. Locate and guard vent termination to prevent accidental contact by people or pets.

9. DO NOT terminate vent in window well, stairwell, alcove, courtyard or other recessed area.

10. DO NOT terminate above any door, window, or gravity air intake. Condensate can freeze, causing ice formations.

2. The vent must not be less than 7 ft above grade when located adjacent to public walkways.

. Terminate vent at least 3 ft above any forced air

inlet located within 10 ft.

4. Vent must terminate at least 4 ft horizontally, and

n no case above or below unless 4 ft horizontal

i distance is maintained, from electric meters, gas meters, regulators, and relief equipment.

5. Terminate vent at least 6 ft away from adjacent walls.

6. DO NOT terminate vent closer than 5 ft below roof overhang.

7. The vent terminal requires a 12 in. vent terminal clearance from the wall.

11. Locate or guard vent to prevent condensate from damaging exterior finishes. Use a rust-resistant sheet metal backing plate against brick or masonry surfaces.

12. DO NOT extend exposed vent pipe outside of building. Condensate could freeze and block vent pipe.

U.S. Installations

Refer to the latest edition of the National Fuel Gas Code.

Vent termination requirements are as follows:

• horizontal runs - at least every 5 ft

• vertical runs - use braces

• under or near elbows

WARNING: Examine the venting system at least once a year. Check all joints and vent pipe connections for tightness, corrosion or deterioration.

Venting Configurations

For heaters connected to gas vents or chimneys, vent installations shall be in accordance with the NFGC (U.S.), or B149 (Canada), or applicable provisions of local building codes.

Natural Draft Vertical Venting (Category I)

Installation

Natural draft venting uses the natural buoyancy of the heated flue products to create a thermal driving head that expels the exhaust gases from the flue. The negative draft must be within the range of -.01 to -.08 in. WC as measured 12 in. above the appliance flue outlet to ensure proper operation. Vent material must be listed by a nationally recognized test agency.

The maximum and minimum venting length for Category I appliances shall be determined per the NFGC (U.S.) or B149 (Canada).

The diameter of vent flue pipe should be sized according to the NFGC (U.S.) and B149 (Canada). The minimum flue pipe diameter for conventional negative draft venting using double-wall Type B vent is: 5 in. for Model 302B, 6 in. for Models 402B and 502B, and 8 in. for Models 652B, 752B and 902B.

NOTE: A vent adapter (field-supplied) must be used to connect Type B vent to the unit.

8. Make sure that the stainless steel cover, now lo-

cated on the run side of the tee, is sealed to avoid any flue gas spillage.

The connection from the appliance vent to the stack must be as direct as possible and shall be the same diameter as, or larger than, the vent outlet. The horizontal breaching of a vent must have an upward slope of not less than 1/4 inch per linear foot from the heater to the vent terminal. The horizontal portions of the vent shall also be supported for the design and weight of the material employed to maintain clearances and to prevent physical damage or separation of joints.

Termination

The vent terminal should be vertical and should terminate outside the building at least 2 ft above the highest

oint of the roof that is within 8 ft. The vent cap should

p have a minimum clearance of 4 ft horizontally from and

n no case above or below (unless a 4 ft hori-zontal

i distance is maintained) electric meters, gas meters, regulators and relief equipment. The distance of the vent terminal from adjacent public walkways, adjacent buildings, open windows and building openings must be consistent with the NFGC (U.S.) or B149 (Canada). Gas vents supported only by flashing and extended above the roof more than 5 ft should be se-curely guyed or braced to withstand snow and wind loads.

CAUTION: A listed vent cap terminal, adequately sized, must be used to evacuate the flue products from the heaters.

Common Venting System

Manifolds that connect more than one heater to a common chimney must be sized to handle the combined load. Consult available guides for proper sizing of the manifold and the chimney. At no time should the area of the common vent be less than the area of the largest heater exhaust outlet.

WARNING: Vent connectors serving appliances vented by natural draft shall not be connected into any portion of mechanical draft systems operating under a positive pressure.

CAUTION: Vent connectors for natural draft venting systems must be Type B or better.

* Vent lengths are based on a lateral length of 2 ft. Refer to the latest edition of the NFGC for further details. When vertical height exceeds 25 ft, consult factory prior to installation. ** Subtract 10 ft per elbow. Max. 3 elbows. *** For Direct Vent applications, positive pressure venting must be used.

Maximum combustion air duct length terminated at 100 equivalent ft.

Table N: Category I Vertical Venting

ommon venting systems may be too large once an

C existing unit is removed. At the time of removal of an existing appliance, the following steps must be fol- lowed with each appliance remaining connected to the

ommon venting system placed in operation, while the

c other appliances remaining connected to the common venting system are not in operation.

1. Seal any unused opening in the common venting

system.

2. Visually inspect the venting system for proper size

and horizontal pitch and verify there is no blockage, restriction, leakage, corrosion or other unsafe condition.

3. Insofar as is practical, close all building doors and

windows and all doors between the space in which the appliances remaining connected to the common venting system are located and other spaces of the building. Turn on clothes dryers and any appliance not connected to the common vent system. Turn on any exhaust fans, such as range hoods and bathroom exhausts, at maximum speed. Do not operate summer exhaust fan. Close fireplace dampers.

4. Place in operation the appliances being inspected.

Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for lighting each appliance. Adjust thermostat so appliance will operate continuously.

5. Check the pressure at a pressure tap located 12

in. above the bottom joint of the first vertical vent pipe. Pressure should be anywhere between -0.01 and -0.08 in. WC.

6. After it has been determined that each appliance

remaining connected to the common venting system properly vents when tested as outlined above, return doors, windows, exhaust fans, fireplace dampers and other gas burning appliances to their previous conditions of use.

7. Any improper operation of the common venting

system should be corrected so that the installation conforms with the NFGC (U.S.) or B149 (Canada). When re-sizing any portion of the common venting system, the common venting system should be resized to approach the minimum size as determined using the appropriate tables in Appendix G in the NFGC (U.S.) or B149 (Canada).

Horizontal Through-the-Wall Venting (Category III)

*Requires optional vent tee for rear discharge.

Fig. 25: Horizontal Through-the-Wall Venting

(Category III)

Installation

These installations utilize the heater-mounted blower to vent the combustion products to the outdoors. Combustion air is taken from inside the room and the vent is installed horizontally through the wall to the outdoors. Adequate combustion and ventilation air must be supplied to the equipment room in accordance with the NFGC (U.S.) or B149 (Canada).

The total length of the horizontal through-the-wall flue system should not exceed 70 equivalent ft in length. If horizontal run exceeds 70 equivalent ft, an appropriately sized extractor must be used. Each elbow used is equal to 10 ft of straight pipe. This will allow installation in one of the four following arrangements:

• 70’ of straight flue pipe

• 60’ of straight flue pipe and one elbow

• 50’ of straight flue pipe and two elbows

• 40’ of straight pipe and three elbows

The vent cap is not considered in the overall length of the venting system.

The vent must be installed to prevent flue gas leakage. Care must be taken during assembly to ensure that all joints are sealed properly and are airtight. The vent must be installed to prevent the potential accumulation of condensate in the vent pipes. It is required that:

1. The vent must be installed with a slight downward slope of not more than 1/4 inch per foot of horizontal run to the vent terminal.

2. The vent must be insulated through the length of the horizontal run.

For installations in extremely cold climate, it is re-

Note: When vertical height exceeds 25 ft,

consult factory prior to installation.

quired that:

. The vent must be installed with a slight upward

slope of not more than 1/4 inch per foot of horizontal run to the vent terminal. In this case, an approved condensate trap must be installed per applicable codes.

2. The vent must be insulated through the length of the horizontal run.

Termination

The flue direct vent cap MUST be mounted on the exterior of the building. The direct vent cap cannot be installed in a well or below grade. The direct vent cap must be installed at least 1 ft above ground level and above normal snow levels. The Raypak-approved stainless steel flue direct vent cap MUST be used (sales order option D-15).

WARNING: No substitutions of flue pipe or vent cap material are allowed. Such substitutions would jeopardize the safety and health of inhabitants.

CAUTION: Condensate is acidic and highly corrosive.

Use only the special gas vent pipes listed for use with Category III gas burning heaters, such as the AL29-4C stainless steel vents offered by Heat Fab Inc. (800772-0739), Protech System, Inc. (800-766-3473), Z-Flex (800-654-5600) or American Metal Products (800-423-4270). Pipe joints must be positively sealed. Follow the vent manufacturer’s installation instructions carefully.

Direct Vent - Horizontal Throughthe-Wall

WARNING: No substitutions of flue pipe or vent cap material are allowed. Such substitutions would jeopardize the safety and health of inhabitants.

CAUTION: Condensate is acidic and highly corrosive.

The stainless steel flue direct vent cap MUST be furnished by the heater manufacturer in accordance with its listing (sales order option D-15).

Termination

The direct vent cap MUST NOT be installed with any combustion air inlet directly above a direct vent cap. This vertical spacing would allow the flue products from the direct vent cap to be pulled into the combustion air intake installed above.

This type of installation can cause non-warrantable problems with components and poor operation of the heater due to the recirculation of flue products. Multiple direct vent caps should be installed in the same horizontal plane with a 4 ft clearance from the side of one vent cap to the side of the adjacent vent cap(s).

Combustion air supplied from outdoors must be free of particulate and chemical contaminants. To avoid a blocked flue condition, keep the vent cap clear of snow, ice, leaves, debris, etc.

Direct Vent - Vertical

Note: When vertical height exceeds 25 ft, consult

factory prior to installation.

Fig. 27: Direct Vent - Vertical

Installation

These installations utilize the heater-mounted blower to draw combustion air from outdoors and force the heated flue products through the vent pipe under positive pressure. The vent material must be in accordance with the above instructions for vent materials. Vent material must be listed by a nationally recognized test agency.

The connection from the appliance flue to the stack must be as direct as possible and should be the same size or larger than the vent outlet.

See Table N for Category I venting guidelines. For direct vent applications, positive pressure venting must be used.

-Flex (800-654-5600) or American Metal Products

Z (800-423-4270). Pipe joints must be positively sealed. Follow the vent manufacturer’s installation instructions carefully.

It is recommended that the intake vent be insulated in colder climates.

Termination

The flue terminal should be vertical and should terminate outside the building at least 2 ft above the highest point of the roof within 8 ft. The vent cap should have a minimum clearance of 4 ft horizontally from and in no case above or below (unless a 4 ft horizontal distance is maintained) electric meters, gas meters, regulators and relief equipment. The distance of the vent terminal from adjacent public walkways, adjacent buildings, open windows and building openings must be consistent with the NFGC (U.S.) or B149 (Canada).

Flues supported only by flashing and extended above the roof more than 5 ft should be securely guyed or braced to withstand snow and wind loads.

The air inlet opening MUST be installed 1 ft above the roof line or above normal snow levels that might obstruct combustion air flow. This dimension is critical to the correct operation of the heater and venting system and reduces the chance of blockage from snow. The vent cap must have a minimum 3 ft vertical clearance from the air inlet opening.

Outdoor Installation

Outdoor models are self-venting when installed with

he optional factory-supplied outdoor vent kit and re-

t quire no additional vent piping. A special vent cap, flow

witch cover and air intake hood are provided in accor-

s dance with CSA requirements, which must be installed directly on the heater. Correct clearances can be found earlier in this section.

NOTE: Condensate can freeze on the vent cap. Frozen condensate on the vent cap can result in a blocked flue condition.

NOTE: The vent cap, flow switch cover and air intake hood must be furnished by the heater manufacturer in accordance with its listing (sales order option D-11).

Care must be taken when locating the heater outdoors, because the flue gases discharged from the vent cap can condense as they leave the cap. Improper location can result in damage to adjacent structures or building finish. For maximum efficiency and safety, the following precautions must be observed:

1. Outdoor models must be installed outdoors and

must use the outdoor vent cap, flow switch cover and air intake hood available from the manufacturer (sales order option D-11).

2. Periodically check venting system. The heater’s

venting areas must never be obstructed in any way and minimum clearances must be observed to prevent restriction of combustion and ventilation air. Keep area clear and free of combustible and flammable materials.

3. Do not locate adjacent to any window, door walk-

way, or gravity air intake. The vent must be located a minimum of 4 ft horizontally from such areas.

4. Install above grade level and above normal snow

levels.

5. Vent terminal must be at least 3 ft above any

forced air inlet located within 10 ft.

6. Adjacent brick or masonry surfaces must be pro-

tected with a rust-resistant sheet metal plate.

Freeze Protection

When installing this heater in an outdoor location that is susceptible to freezing, sales order option B-22 must be ordered. The B-22 option energizes the heater pump at a preset temperature drop to circulate water and reduces the possibility of freezing and damaging the heat exchanger or headers.

Controls

WARNING: Installation, adjustment and service of

heater controls, including timing of various operating functions, must be performed by a qualified installer, service agency or the gas supplier. Failure to do so may result in control damage, heater malfunction, property damage, personal injury, or death.

WARNING: Turn off the power to the heater before installation, adjustment or service of the CPW board or any heater controls. Failure to do so may result in board damage, heater malfunction, property damage, personal injury, or death.

CAUTION: This appliance has provisions to be connected to more than one supply source. To reduce the risk of electric shock, disconnect all such connections before servicing.

CAUTION: Risk of electric shock: More than one disconnect switch may be required to de-energize the equipment before servicing.

Models 302B-902B

1. The black (hot) wire lead goes directly to the main power switch. This black toggle switch is located at the middle front of the control compartment.

2. When the main power switch is placed in the “ON” position, 120 VAC is applied to the 120 VAC terminal block on the circuit board and the 120/24 VAC transformer is powered.

3. 120 VAC is waiting at the N.O. contacts of the Economaster pump delay.

4. Terminals L1 and F1 of the ignition module are powered with 120VAC.

5. 120 VAC power is also applied to the control power connector on the circuit board.

6. 120 VAC power is waiting at the N.O. contacts of K-3 relay to energize the heater blower.

7. The 120/24 VAC transformer outputs 24 VAC.

8. 24 VAC is sent to pin L1 of the low water cut-off (optional) and the red power light is energized.

14. Power is applied to terminal TP-1 of the Economaster pump delay to energize the circuit board.

15. Once all safeties are closed and verified, a 24 VAC signal is output from the Auto High Limit to J5 pin 3 of the CPW board of the heater.

16. 24 VAC power is now sent to the coil of relay K-1.

17. Relay K-1 (N.C.) will now be energized, and opens the N.C. contacts to disable the alarm (optional) and turns off the red LED safety shutdown light on the front status board.

18. The common terminal of the Auto High Limit will now send a 24 VAC signal to pin 1 of the “panel switch”.

19. The “panel switch” (rocker switch) located at the lower left front of the control compartment is now powered. If the switch is “ON” and there is no call for heat (CFH), the heater is in standby mode.

20. After the standby switch is placed into the “ON” position, a 24 VAC signal is sent to the “enable/disable” connection (normally jumpered).

9. 24 VAC is applied to the blue power light located on the status display board.

10. 24 VAC is also applied to the red LED safety shutdown light on the front status board until the safeties have been proven.

11. 24 VAC is applied to the alarm circuit (optional). If the E-5 sales option (Alarm) is included a 5 second time delay relay will not allow the alarm to sound unless a safety or limit circuit stays energized for more than 5 seconds.

21. 24 VAC switched power is applied to the S24V terminal on the ignition module.

22. When the “enable/disable” contacts are closed, the 24 VAC signal travels to pin 1 of the stage 1 connection and waits for a CFH.

35. When the coil on relay K-3 is powered, the N.O. relay contacts close and energizes the blower from the J8 connections on the CPW board.

25. Power is now sent to terminal TP4 of the Economaster to energize the relay and close the contacts.

26. Power is waiting at the common terminal of the flow switch waiting for closure and sufficient water flow.

27. The heater pump is energized upon relay closure of the Economaster.

28. Upon sufficient flow from the heater pump, the flow switch contacts will close.

29. If there is insufficient flow and the flow switch does not close, a 24 VAC signal is sent to the Universal Diagnostics Board to indicate the fault.

30. The flow light is energized; located on the front status panel.

31. A 24 VAC signal is also sent to the “TH” terminal located on the ignition module.

32. Once the 24 VAC “TH” signal is received at the ignition module, the internal contacts between F1 and F2 close sending a 120 VAC signal to the 120 VAC pilot duty terminals, located at J14 on the circuit board.

33. The 120 VAC signal continues to the coil of the blower relay K-3 (N.O.).

34. The 120 VAC signal continues to the 120 VAC safety terminals located at J13 on the circuit board.

36. After proper air pressure is received in the air plenum, the air pressure switch will close.

37. If there is insufficient air pressure and the air pressure switch does not close, a 24 VAC signal is sent to the Universal Diagnostics Board to indicate the fault.

38. A 24 VAC signal is now sent to the blower LED on the status board.

39. Power is applied to the optional equipment interlock connection J9 (normally jumpered).

40. The 24 VAC signal is then sent to the 24 VAC safety connector.

41. 24 VAC is now sent to the pressure switch (P.S.) terminal on the ignition module.

42. Once the pressure switch signal is received at the ignition module, the heater performs a 15-second pre-purge and then the hot surface igniter is energized by a 120 VAC signal from S-1 on the ignition module for approximately 30 seconds. (The hot surface igniter must draw greater than 3.1 amps while being energized or ignition lockout will occur after three tries.)

43. Once the ignition module determines that the hot surface igniter has heated up and operating properly, a 24 VAC signal is output from pin GV on the module.

44. 24 VAC signal is received at gas valve 1 thus energizing it.

N.O. contacts closing downstream of the stage 2

onnections.

47. The gas coming through the burners should ignite

from the heat of the hot surface igniter and the flame should carry over from one burner to the other burners of stage 1. The remote sensor is now trying to sense the flame. If the flame is not sensed within 4 seconds, the ignition module will shut down gas valve 1 and retry the hot surface igniter. During ignition retry the heater must perform a 15-second pre-purge and an approximately 30-second igniter warm-up before opening gas valve 1 again. The standard ignition module will attempt ignition a maximum of three times prior to ignition lockout.

48. If the ignition module locks out, a signal will be

sent to the Universal Diagnostics Board to indicate an ignition fault.

49. (Models 302B-402B only) 24 VAC is now waiting

at pin 3 of the stage 2 connections on the CPW board.

50. (Models 502B-902B only) When power is sent to

gas valve 1 it is also sent to time delay relay 1 (TD-

1) which starts a 5-second countdown.

51. (Models 502B-902B only) After the 5-second

countdown from TD-1, 24 VAC is waiting at pin 3 of the stage 2 connections on the CPW board.

Ignition Module

When additional heat is needed, the combustion air blower starts to purge air from the combustion cham-

er for about 15 seconds. On proof-of-air flow, the

Fig. 29: Ignition Module

air-proving switch closes and the igniter is energized. To ensure safe operation, the gas valve cannot open until the igniter is verified. The main burner is automatically lit when the device is powered and pre-purged. The heater performs its own safety check and opens the main valve only after the igniter is proven to be capable of ignition.

The standard ignition module will attempt to light three times before locking out. To reset it, turn off power to the heater, wait 30 seconds and re-apply power. The optional single-try ignition module will lock out after failing to light one time. To reset it, press and release the small, recessed black push button located inside of the cut-out on the lower right-hand corner of the ignition module case. Turning off the power to the heater WILL NOT reset the ignition module.

52. After closure of the stage 2 contacts Gas valve 2

is energized.

53. The stage 2 LED on the status display board is

now illuminated.

54. The Heater is now operating at full fire.

High Limit (Manual Reset)

Low Water Cut-Off (Optional)

The heater is equipped with a manual reset high limit temperature device. Push the reset button and adjust

he setting to 40 - 50°F above desired operating tem-

t perature. Typically, the maximum settings are 240°F

or H units and 200°F for WH units.

Fig. 30: High Limit (Manual Reset)

Flow Switch

This dual-purpose control, mounted and wired in series with the main gas valve, shuts off heater in case of pump failure or low water flow.

The low water cut-off automatically shuts down the burner whenever water level drops below the level of the sensing probe. A 5-second time delay prevents

remature lockout due to temporary conditions such

p as power fluctuations or air pockets.

Fig. 32: Low Water Cut-Off

High and Low Gas Pressure Switches

The low gas pressure switch (optional) connection mounts upstream of the gas valve to ensure that sufficient gas pressure is present for proper regulator performance. The low gas pressure switch automatically shuts down the heater if gas supply drops below the recommended setting of 5.0 in. WC for natural gas, and 10.0 in. WC for propane gas.

Fig. 31: Flow Switch

Operating Control

The heater may be equipped with different types of operating controls. Consult the individual control data sheets supplied with your heater paperwork. See the General Safety Section for safety precautions concerning domestic hot water applications.

The high gas pressure switch (optional) connection mounts downstream of the stage-1 gas valve. If the gas pressure regulator fails, the high gas pressure switch automatically shuts down the burner. The high gas pressure switch automatically shuts down the heater if gas manifold pressure rises above the recommended setting of 5.0 in. WC for natural gas, and 11.5 in. WC for propane gas.

UDB Diagnostic Board

This heater is equipped with a diagnostic board which will indicate faults as they occur. Refer to the following section for instructions on accessing, reviewing and

learing these faults.

Fig. 37: UDB Diagnostic Board

UDB Fault History

To view the fault codes in the UDB history file:

Fig. 35: Blocked Vent Switch

Pump Time Delay

The Economaster is a fully enclosed solid state TDR with a white jumper that selects one of two time delays. See Fig. 36. If the jumper is on pins 6 and 7 (default) the delay time is 5 minutes. If the jumper is not on pins 6 and 7, the time delay is 10 minutes.

In a conventional system, when the Aquastat is satisfied, the main gas valve closes, but the pump continues operating. With the time delay relay the boiler pump is programmed to continue running for an optimum period of time in order to absorb the residual heat from the combustion chamber and use it in the system. The pump then shuts off until the next call for heat is received from the Aquastat.

1. Press the UP or DOWN buttons on the membrane switch for 2 seconds to access the fault history.

2. Press either button to scroll through the recorded faults in history.

3. The most recent fault recorded will be the first fault displayed (the last 16 faults are stored in the history, on a rolling basis). There is no time or date stamp associated with these faults.

4. When the history of faults has been exhausted, pushing the UP or DOWN buttons again will roll the fault history over and it will start again.

5. To exit the fault history, wait for 10 seconds and the board will automatically exit the history mode.

To clear the fault history, press and hold both the UP and DOWN buttons for 5 seconds while the power is on.

NOTE: Once the history has been cleared, it cannot be recovered.

Fig. 36: Economaster Time Delay Relay (TDR)

Diagnostic information is provided any time a fault is recorded. This information is intended to assist in locating the problem with the heater, but is not exhaustive.

If multiple fault conditions occur at the same time, only the fault that caused the heater to shut down will be recorded in the history.

Special Instructions

NOTE: The constructions of the 84%- (standard)

and 87%-efficiency (optional) boilers are very similar, and they are installed to the same requirements,

xcept as noted in this section.

Water Piping

ends that a thermometer be placed into the boiler inlet piping next to the in/out header to facilitate temperature adjustment. Inlet water temperatures below 120ºF (49ºC) can excessively cool the products of combustion, resulting in condensation on the heat exchanger.

Venting

CAUTION: Proper installation of flue venting is criti-

cal for the safe and efficient operation of the boiler.

An 87%-efficiency boiler requires a minimum inlet water temperature of 120ºF (49ºC) to prevent excessive condensation in the combustion chamber. An 87%-efficiency boiler operated with an inlet temperature of less than 120ºF (49ºC) must have a manual bypass or an approved low-temperature operation system to prevent problems with condensation. A manual bypass, shown in Fig. 15, must be piped into the system at the time of installation. This piping is like a primary/secondary boiler installation with a bypass in the secondary boiler piping. Raypak strongly recomm-

CAUTION: Condensate is acidic and highly corrosive.

Appliance Categories

See Table T for appliance category requirements for the 87%-efficiency Hi Delta.

NOTE: For additional information on appliance categorization, see appropriate code NFGC (U.S.) and B149 (Canada), or applicable local building codes.

Note: Basis for minimum flow is 20 gpm or 40°F ∆T. Basis for maximum flow is 90 gpm.

if there are any questions about the appliance

ategory or suitability of a vent material for Category

c II, III or IV applications. Using improper venting materials can result in personal injury, death or property damage.

Vent Terminal Location

11. Locate or guard vent to prevent condensate from damaging exterior finishes. Install a rust-resistant sheet metal backing plate against brick or masonry surfaces.

12. DO NOT extend exposed vent pipe outside of building. Condensate could freeze and block vent pipe.

NOTE: During winter months check the vent cap and make sure no blockage occurs from build-up of snow or ice.

1. Condensate can freeze on the vent cap. Frozen condensate on the vent cap can result in a blocked flue condition.

2. Give special attention to the location of the vent termination to avoid possibility of property damage or personal injury.

3. Gases may form a white vapor plume in winter. The plume could obstruct a window view if the termination is installed near windows.

4. Prevailing winds, in combination with below-freezing temperatures, can cause freezing of condensate and water/ice build-up on building, plants or roof.

5. The bottom of the vent terminal and the air intake shall be located at least 12 in. above grade, including normal snow line.

Condensate Management

Condensate must be routed from the condensate trap to an appropriate container for neutralization before disposal, as required by local codes. Note that the condensate is acidic and highly corrosive.

Vertical Venting (Category II)

6. Un-insulated single-wall metal vent pipe shall NOT be used outdoors in cold climates for venting gas utilization equipment.

7. Through-the-wall vents for Category II and IV appliances shall not terminate over public walkways or areas where condensate or vapor could create a nuisance or hazard, or be detrimental to the operation of regulators, relief valves or other equipment.

8. Locate and guard vent termination to prevent accidental contact by people or pets.

9. DO NOT terminate vent in window well, stairwell, alcove, courtyard or other recessed area, unless previously approved by local authority.

10. DO NOT terminate above any door, window, or gravity air intake. Condensate can freeze, causing ice formations.

*Requires optional vent tee for rear discharge.

Fig. 38: Vertical Venting (Category II)

CAUTION: A properly sized listed vent cap terminal must be used to evacuate the flue products from the boilers.

Common Venting System

Manifolds that connect more than one boiler to a common chimney must be engineered to handle the combined load. Consult available guides for proper sizing of the manifold and the chimney. At no time should the area of the vent be less than the area of the largest boiler exhaust outlet.

WHAT TO DO IF YOU SMELL GAS:

START-UP

Pre Start-up

Filling System (Heating Boilers)

Fill system with water. Purge all air from the system. Lower system pressure. Open valves for normal system operation, and fill system through feed pressure. Manually open air vent on the compression tank until water appears, then close vent.

Air Purge (Domestic Hot Water Heaters)

Purge all air from system before lighting heater. This can be normally accomplished by opening a downstream valve.

NOTE: Boil-out information: The oils, grease and other contaminates found in some gas fired boilers are not present in the water side of a Raypak appliance. Most boil-out procedures require the use of an alkaline (high pH) cleaning agent that will damage the copper finned tubes of the heat exchanger. Heat exchangers damaged due to boilout are not covered under warranty.

Do not try to light any appliance.

•

• Do not touch any electrical switch; do not use any telephone in your building.

• Immediately call your gas supplier from a neighbor’s telephone. Follow the gas supplier’s instructions.

• If you cannot reach your gas supplier, call the fire department.

• Use only your hand to push in or turn the gas control knob. Never use tools. If the knob will not turn by hand, do not try to repair it, call a qualified service technician. Forced or attempted repair may result in a fire or explosion.

• Do not use this appliance if any part has been under water, immediately call a qualified service technician to inspect the appliance and to replace any part of the control system and any gas control which has been under water.

• Check around unit for debris and remove combustible products, i.e. gasoline, etc.

Pre Start-up Check

Venting System Inspection

1. Check all vent pipe connections and flue pipe material.

2. Make sure vent terminations are installed per code and are clear of all debris or blockage.

For Your Safety

WARNING: If you do not follow these instructions

exactly, a fire or explosion may result causing property damage, personal injury or loss of life.

This appliance has a hot surface igniter. It is equipped with an ignition device which automatically lights the burners. Do not try to light the burners by hand.

BEFORE OPERATING, smell all around the appliance area for gas. Be sure to smell near the floor because some gas is heavier than air and will settle on the floor.

1. Verify heater is filled with water.

2. Check system piping for leaks. If found, repair immediately.

3. Vent air from system. Air in system can interfere with water circulation.

4. Purge air from gas line up to heater.

Initial Start-up

Tools Needed

• (1) 12-0-12, 24” scale U-tube manometer

• (4) 6-0-6, 12” scale U-tube manometers (minimum)

• (1) Screwdriver

• (1) Multi-meter

• (1) 3/16” Allen wrench

NOTE: Digital manometers are not recommended.

Preparation

Start-Up

WARNING: Do not turn on gas at this time.

Check Power Supply

With multi-meter at incoming power, check voltage between:

Hot - Common (≈120 VAC)

Hot - Ground (≈120 VAC)

Common - Ground (< 1 VAC)

WARNING: If Common - Ground is > 1 VAC, STOP: Contact electrician to correct ground failure. Failure to do this may burn out 120V-24V transformer, or may cause other safety control damage or failure.

Attach Manometers to Measure Pressures

1. Turn off main gas valve.

Blower Adjustment

1. Turn off power.

. Unplug cap at pressure switches and connect ma-

nometer(s) to the tee.

3. Close all manual firing valves.

4. Turn power on.

5. Check manometers attached to fan pressure switch. The reading should be 1.4 ± .1 in. WC for propane gas and natural gas. If not, adjust the air shutter on the blowers to attain the correct value.

6. Turn power off.

7. Reconnect this cap.

Main Burner Adjustment

1. Turn off unit.

2. Attach 24” scale manometer to the first main gas shut-off valve pressure tapping.

3. Attach (1) 12” scale manometer to the outlet side of the second main gas shut-off valve pressure tapping.

4. Attach (1) 12” scale manometer near the fan-proving switch. Pull black cap from air pressure switch tee and connect the manometer. NOTE: Retain caps for reinstallation later.

Check Gas Supply Pressure

1. Slowly turn on main gas shut-off valve.

2. Read the gas supply pressure from the manometer; minimum supply pressure for natural gas is 5.0 in. WC, recommended supply is 7.0 in. WC, minimum supply pressure for propane gas is 11.0 in. WC (dynamic readings, all stages firing).

3. If the pressure is > 14.0 in. WC, turn off the valve.

2. Open manual firing valves.

3. Turn on the unit, wait 15 seconds, and the igniter should glow. Look into sight glass located at each end of the heater to check igniter operation. Gas valves should open in 45-60 seconds.

4. If burner does not light on first trial. It will retry, up to three times.

5. Main burner ignition: Check manifold gas pressure at gas valve outlet pressure tap. This should read

3.5 ± 0.1 in. WC for natural gas and 10.5 ± 0.1 in. WC for propane gas.

6. If the pressure reading differs by more than ± 0.1 in. WC, remove screw cover from the gas pressure regulator and adjust main burner manifold pressure. Replace the screw cover. Repeat steps 2 to 5 on other valves as necessary.

CAUTION: Special manifold and air settings may be required. Verify rating plate and blower housing.

4. Check if the service regulator is installed and/or adjust the service regulator.

Safety Inspection

1. Check all thermostats and high limit settings.

2. During the following safety checks leave manometers hooked up, check and record.

. If other gas-fired appliances in the room are on the

same gas main, check all pressures on the Hi Delta with all other equipment running.

The burner section that is ignited directly by the hot surface ignition system serves as a supervised pilot to light the burner sections on either side of it. The burner sections on either side of the supervised section (pilot) are electrically interlocked with the supervised ignition system so as they are not energized unless flame is proven on the center section which is acting as a pilot to light the right and left-hand sections.

The pilot turn-down test is conducted as follows:

4. Check thermostats for ON-OFF operation.

5. Check high limits for ON-OFF operation.

6. While in operation, check flow switch operation.

7. Check the low gas pressure switch. (For proper adjustment, use the attached manometers, if available, to set pressure. The scales on the switch are approximate only.) Low gas pressure switch must be set at 5.0 in. WC for natural gas and 10.0 in. WC for propane gas.

8. Make sure that the high gas pressure switch (optional) is set to 1.0 in. WC above manifold pressure.

Follow-Up

Safety checks must be recorded as performed.

Turn heater on. After main burner ignition:

1. Check manometer for proper reading.

2. Cycle heater several times and re-check readings.

3. Remove all manometers and replace caps and screws.

1. Turn off manual valves on non-supervised burner sections.

2. Turn on electrical power and adjust thermostat to call for heat.

3. Wait for completion of ignition sequence to light burner section being utilized as a pilot for those turned off in step 1 above.

4. Gradually reduce manifold pressure (flame) on supervised burner section by slowly closing manual gas valve. Watch for shut-down due to loss of supervised flame signal as pressure is being reduced. Flame signal should be lost before manifold pressure goes below 2.0 in. WC for natural gas and 6.0 in. WC for propane gas.

Leak Test Procedure: Dual-Seat Gas Valves

Proper leak testing requires three pressure test points in the gas train.

Test point A is upstream of the automatic gas valve. On the first automatic valve, this is a bleedle valve. On the other valves, this is a plugged port. The bleedle valve on the first valve may be used for all the other valves as well.

4. Replace all gas pressure caps.

5. Check for gas leaks one more time.

Pilot Turn-Down Test

The Hi Delta heaters, depending on their size, have one to three burner sections. Each burner section is supplied gas by gas valves incorporated into a single valve body. A maximum of three burner sections may be controlled by a single hot surface ignition system. The middle of the three burner sections is ignited directly with a hot surface ignition system.

Test point B is a bleedle valve located between the two automatic gas valve seats.

Test point C is located downstream of both automatic gas valve seats and upstream of the manual valve. On the manual valve, this is a bleedle valve. Identical readings will be found at the plugged port labeled as Alternate C.

Refer to Fig. 42. The numbers on the diagram refer to the steps below:

These tests are to be conducted with the electrical power to the heater turned off.

1. Manually close the downstream leak test valve.

2. Open test point A and connect a manometer to it. Verify that there is gas pressure and that it is within the proper range (NOTE: must not exceed 14.0 in. WC).

This completes leak testing for a single Hi Delta manifold riser. Repeat steps 1-8 for each riser.

Post Start-Up Check

Check off steps as completed:

3. Open test point B and connect a rubber tube to it. Connect the other end of the tube to a manometer and look for a build-up of pressure. Increasing pressure indicates a leaking gas valve.

4. Next, close the upstream manual gas valve and remove the manometer from test point A and from test point B. Connect a rubber tube from test point A to test point B and open the upstream manual gas valve. Make sure that test points A & B have been opened so as to allow gas to flow. This will bring pressure to the second valve seat.

5. Open test point C and connect a second rubber tube to it. Connect the other end of the tube to a manometer and look for a build-up of pressure. Increasing pressure indicates a leaking gas valve.

6. Remove rubber tube and manometers. Close each test point valve as the tubes are removed.

7. Connect a manometer to each test point (one at a time) and look for a build-up of pressure. If a buildup of pressure is detected, check each test point valve to see if it is tightly closed. If leak persists, replace test point valve(s).

8. After no leakage has been verified at all valve seats and test valves, open downstream leak tests valve and restore electrical power to heater.

. Verify that the heater and heat distribution units or

storage tank are filled with water.

2. Confirm that the automatic air vent (if used) was opened two full turns during the venting procedure.

3. Verify that air has been purged from the system.

Annually

1. Test flame failure detection system and pilot turndown. (See “Pilot Turn-Down Test Procedure,” page 48.)

2. Test high limit and operating temperature. (See “Post Start-Up Check,” page 49.)

3. Check flame sensors.

4. Conduct a combustion test at full fire. Carbon dioxide should be 7.5 to 8.5% at full fire for natural gas, and between 9.2 to 9.8% for propane gas; Carbon monoxide should be < 150 ppm).

APPENDIX

Inside Air Contamination

• furniture refinishing areas and establishments

• new building construction

• remodeling areas

• open pit skimmers

All heaters experience some condensation during start-up. The condensate from flue gas is acidic.

ombustion air can be contaminated by certain vapors

C in the air which raise the acidity of the condensate. Higher acidity levels attack many materials including stainless steel, which is commonly used in high efficiency systems. The heater can be supplied with corrosion-resistant, non-metallic intake air vent material. You may, however, choose to use outside combustion air for one or more of these reasons:

1. Installation is in an area containing contaminants listed below which will induce acidic condensation.

2. You want to reduce infiltration into your building through openings around windows and doors.

3. You are using AL29-4C stainless steel vent pipe, which is more corrosion-resistant than standard metallic vent pipe. In extremely contaminated areas, this may also experience deterioration.

Products causing contaminated combustion air:

Check for areas and products listed above before installing heater. If found:

• remove products permanently, OR

• install TruSeal direct vent

• spray cans containing chloro/fluorocarbons

• permanent wave solutions

• chlorinated waxes/cleaners

• chlorine-based swimming pool chemicals

• calcium chloride used for thawing

• sodium chloride used for water softening

• refrigerant leaks

• paint or varnish removers

• hydrochloric acid/muriatic acid

• cements and glues

• antistatic fabric softeners used in clothes dryers

• chloride-type bleaches, detergents, and cleaning solvents found in household laundry rooms

• adhesives used to fasten building products

• similar products

Areas where contaminated combustion air commonly exists:

• dry cleaning/laundry areas

• metal fabrication plants

• beauty shops

• refrigeration repair shops

• photo processing plants

• auto body shops

• plastic manufacturing plants
