15 PSI (1 kg/cm2) steam boiler rated at

24kW

NOTE: The only available space to supply utilities to the boiler is the 6”
(152mm) space between the floor and the cabinet base. PVC & CPVC
Pipe are not acceptable materials for drains.

CAUTION: REMOTE KETTLE OPERATION If this boiler is feeding a
remote kettle that will be more than 5 feet (1.5 meters) away, consult
factory before ordering.

WATER SUPPLY

Good quality water feed is the responsibility of the owner. Water quality
must be within the following general guidelines.

TDS: 40-125 ppm Chlorides: <25 ppm
Silica: <13 ppm pH: 7.0 - 8.5
Chloramine: <0.2 ppm Chlorine: <0.2 ppm
Hardness: 35-100 ppm

The best defense against poor water quality is a water treatment sys­tem designed to meet your water quality conditions.
