Table courtesy of The Shriners Burn Institute
To meet commercial hot water use needs, the high
limit safety control on this water heater will shut off the
main gas valve before the outlet temperature reaches
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.
This section applies to Hot Water Supply Boilers and
Hot Water Heaters ONLY. For sanitary rinse applications where outlet temperatures of 180°F to 195°F are
required, a boiler is recommended since the 210°F
limit on water heaters will NOT allow the heater to
maintain these desired sanitary rinse temperatures.

Temperature & Pressure Gauge
The temperature and pressure gauge is shipped loose
for field installation and must be installed within 12
inches of the boiler outlet (if possible) in an easily
readable location. Installation must comply with ASME
Section IV as well as all applicable national, state and
local codes.
Hydrostatic Test
Unlike many types of heaters, this heater does not require hydrostatic testing prior to being placed in
operation. The heat exchanger has already been factory-tested and is rated for 160 psi operating pressure.
However, Raypak does recommend hydrostatic testing of the piping connections to the heater and the rest
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.
14
Leaks must be repaired at once to prevent damage to
the heater. NEVER use petroleum-based stop-leak
compounds.
To perform hydrostatic test:
. Connect fill water supply. With bleed valve open,
1
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.
3. Check for leaks. Repair if found.
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
ack flow device upstream of the regulator, with a
b
manual shut-off valve as required by local codes.
Piping
All high points should be vented. A heater installed
above radiation level must be provided with a low water cut-off device (sales order option F-10). This
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.
Raypak Integral Cold Water
Protection
CAUTION: Damage due to internal condensation
may occur if the heater inlet water temperature does
not exceed 50°F (22°C) within 7 minutes of start-up.
XTherm heaters are equipped with an integral cold
water protection system. Units equipped with the dual
injector pump system are designed to operate with
heater inlet water temperatures down to 50°F continuous. Under start up conditions the dual injector system
can operate with fluid temperatures down to 32°F.
Operation at lower temperatures will create unwarrantable damage to the injector pumps. XTherm WH
and WHP models equipped with single injector pumps
are designed for typical domestic hot water and commercial pool heating operating conditions respectively.
Contact your local representative or the factory for
applications assistance.
Hydronic Heating
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.
Air-Separation/Expansion Tank
All heaters should be equipped with a properly sized
expansion tank and air separator fitting as shown in
Fig. 13.
Pump Selection
The heater is equipped with an integral cold water protection system that includes dual modulating injector
pumps to pull the required flow from the system loop
and a heater pump, sized by the factory, for the optimal T across the primary heat exchanger. The
system is designed for continuous return temperatures
from 50°F to 180°F.
Fig. 13: Air-Separation/Expansion Tank
Three-Way Valves
WARNING: Three-way valves intended to regulate
system water temperatures by reducing flow in the
boiler should not be used.
XTherm heaters have an integral cold water protection
system to maintain required temperatures and flow
rates.

NOTE: If local codes require a vacuum relief valve,
potable water and space heating, observe the
following to ensure proper operation.
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.
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 the
heater is properly installed.
4. When the system requires water for space heating
at temperatures higher than 140°F (60°C), a
means such as a mixing valve shall be installed to
temper the water in order to reduce scald hazard
potential.
Pool Heating
When a boiler or water heater is used in a pool heating application, ensure that all the following installation
requirements are met.
The XTherm must be equipped with a direct coupled
Cold Water Run injector pump for pool applications.
The integral wet rotor injector pump system supplied
with all H and model 1005 WH XTherm heaters must
not be used for pool service. The direct coupled Cold
Water Run injector pump package is optional on all H
and 1005 WH models and standard on 1505 and 2005
WH and all WHP models. The Cold Water Run system
must be set to maintain 120°F at the inlet to the primary heat exchanger on all XTherm models.
To complete installation of the heater, the system sensor must be installed in the return water line, upstream
of the heater. The supplied electronic operating control is configured to operate as the thermostat.A
separate auto limit is shipped loose to be installed in
the system piping downstream of the heater outlet.
See Fig. 17 for the thermostat/sensor location.
*Maximum 4 times the pipe diameter or 12”, whichever is less.
Fig. 17: Single Pool Heater Application
Set the control in Mode 2 for all single-heater pool
installations. For multiple-heater installations using
an external modulating sequencer, use Mode 8.
Automatic Chlorinators and Chemical
Feeders
CAUTION:Combustionairmustnotbe
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 as pool heaters in freezing
climate areas should be shut down for the winter. To
shut down the heater, turn off manual main gas valve
and main gas shut-off. Close isolation valves. Drain
the heater using the hose bibs located on the bottom
of both heat exchangers. Disconnect the condensate
hose from the secondary heat exchanger and drain
the condensate trap.
NOTE: There are 3 separate drains on the XTherm
that must ALL be drained to protect the heat
exchangers. These are accessible by removing the
lower front door from the heater for the 2 primary
drains and the right-rear panel for the secondary
drain. Drain any piping of all water that may
experience below-freezing temperatures.
Pool/Spa Water Chemistry
CAUTION: Corrosive water voids all warranties.
NOTE: Chemical imbalance can cause severe
damage to your heater and associated equipment.
Chemical imbalance can cause severe damage to the
pool heater and associated equipment. Maintain the
water chemistry according to the chart below. If the
mineral content and dissolved solids in the water
become too high, scale forms inside the heat exchanger tubes, reducing heater efficiency and damaging the
heater. If the pH drops below 7.2, this will cause corrosion of the heat exchanger and severely damage the
heater. Heat exchanger damage resulting from chemical imbalance is not covered by the warranty.
For your health and the protection of your pool equipment, it is essential that your water be chemically
balanced. The following levels must be used as a
guide for balanced water.
Occasional chemical shock dosing of the pool or spa
should not damage the heater providing the water is
balanced.

w
Further advice should be obtained from your pool or
spa builder, accredited pool shop, or chemical supplier for the correct levels for your water.
Water Hardness
Raypak water heaters can operate lime/scale-free
using potable water with a hardness not exceeding 25
gpg for models 1005 and 1505, and not exceeding 16
gpg for model 2005. 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 gpg special measures must be taken to lower it. Water should
be softened to a hardness level no lower than 5 gpg.
Water softened as low as 0 to 1 grain per gallon may
be under-saturated with respect to calcium carbonate
resulting in water that is aggressive and corrosive.
NOTE: Soft = 0–4 grains per gallon; Medium = 5–15
grains per gallon; Hard = 16–25 grains per gallon.
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 upstream 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 re-connecting the heater and its
manual shut-off valve to the gas supply line. FAILURE
TO FOLLOW THIS PROCEDURE MAY DAMAGE
THE GAS VALVE. Over-pressurized gas valves are
not covered 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.
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
heater gas controls, and a manual shut-off valve located outside the heater jacket. It is recommended
that a union be installed in the gas supply piping adjacent to the heater for servicing. The gas supply
pressure to the heater must not exceed 10.5 in. WC for
natural gas or 13.0 in. WC for propane gas.
A pounds-to-inches regulator must be installed to
reduce the gas supply pressure if it is higher than
noted above. This regulator should be placed a minimum distance of 10 times the pipe diameter upstream
Fig. 18: Gas Supply Connection
CAUTION: Do not use Teflon tape on gas line pipe
thread. A pipe compound rated for use with natural
and propanegasesis recommended. Apply
sparingly only on male pipe ends, leaving the two
end threads bare.
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.

nal. 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.
NOTE: A vent adapter (field-supplied) may be required to connect the Category IV vent to the heater.
Termination
The vent terminal should be vertical and should terminate outside the building at least 2 ft above the highest
point of the roof that is within 10 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.
45100**
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 securely guyed or braced to withstand snow
and wind loads.

CAUTION: A listed vent cap terminal suitable for
connection to the Cat IV vent materials, adequately
sized, must be used to evacuate the flue products
from the heaters.
NOTE: For extractor sizing, typical CO2levels are
8.5% for natural gas and 9.5% for propane gas and
flue temperature of 150° F.
Common Venting
The NFGC does not address sizing guidelines for the
common venting of multiple Category IV heaters. This
is covered in the NFGC under “Engineered Vent Systems”. Table N provides the volume of flue products at
full fire for the calculation of appropriate vent sizing
and extractor for common venting.
WARNING: Vent connectors serving any other
appliances shall not be connected into any portion of
mechanical draft systems operating under a positive
pressure. If an XTherm heater is installed to replace
an existing heater, the vent system MUST be verified
to be of the correct size and of Category IV AL29-4C
vent material construction. If it is NOT, it MUST be
replaced.

Fig. 26: Alt. Horizontal Through-the-Wall Venting
NOTE: While a drain connection is required in the
vent of all XTherm installations, the drain can be accomplished in several different ways. The figures in
this manual show the drain in a vent tee, however,
this can also be accomplished using an inline collector for condensing stacks or an inline vertical or
horizontal collector available from several of the
listed vent manufacturers.
CAUTION: This venting system requires the
installation of a condensate drain in the vent piping
per the vent manufacturer’s instructions. Failure to
install a condensate drain in the venting system will
void all warranties on this heater.
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 75 equivalent ft in length. If
horizontal run exceeds 75 equivalent ft, an appropriately sized variable-speed 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:
•75’ of straight flue pipe
•65’ of straight flue pipe and one elbow
•55’ of straight flue pipe and two elbows
•45’ of straight pipe and three elbows
The vent cap is not considered in the overall length of
the venting system.
27
The vent must be installed to prevent flue gas leakage.
Care must be taken during assembly to ensure that all
oints are sealed properly and are airtight. The vent
j
must be installed to prevent the potential accumulation
of condensate in the vent pipes. It is required that:
. The vent must be installed with a condensate
1
drain located in proximity to the heater as directed
by the vent manufacturer.
2. The vent must be installed with a slight upward
slope of not less than 1/4 inch per foot of horizontal run to the vent terminal.
3. 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). The vent terminal must be located
NO CLOSER than 12” off the wall.
WARNING: No substitutions of flue pipe or vent
cap material are allowed. Such substitutions would
jeopardize the safety and health of inhabitants.
Direct Vent—Vertical
CAUTION: This venting system requires the
installation of a condensate drain in the vent piping
per the vent manufacturer’s instructions. Failure to
install a condensate drain in the venting system will
void all warranties on this heater.
Installation
These installations utilize the heater-mounted blower
to draw combustion air from outdoors and vent combustion products to the outdoors.
The total length of air supply pipe cannot exceed the
distances listed in Table M. Each elbow used is equal
to 10 ft of straight pipe. This will allow installation in
any arrangement that does not exceed the lengths
shown in Table M. The vent cap is not considered in
the overall length of the venting system.
Care must be taken during assembly 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 condensate
drain located in proximity to the heater as directed
by the vent manufacturer.
2. 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.
Fig. 28: Direct Vent - Vertical
3. The vent must be insulated through the length of
the horizontal run.
Termination
The vent cap MUST be mounted on the exterior of the
building. The vent cap cannot be installed in a well or
below grade. The vent cap must be installed at least 1
ft above ground level and above normal snow levels.
The vent cap MUST NOT be installed with any combustion air inlet directly above a vent cap. This vertical
spacing would allow the flue products from the 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 vent caps installed in the same horizontal plane
must have a 4 ft clearance from the side of one vent
cap to the side of the adjacent vent cap(s).
28
WARNING: No substitutions of flue pipe or vent
cap material are allowed. Such substitutions would
jeopardize the safety and health of inhabitants.
ombustion air supplied from outdoors must be free of
C
particulate and chemical contaminants. To avoid a
blocked flue condition, keep the vent cap clear of
snow, ice, leaves, debris, etc.
The stainless steel flue direct vent cap must be furnished by the heater manufacturer in accordance with
its listing (sales order option D-15).
3.Do not locate adjacent to any window, door, walkway, or gravity air intake. The vent must be
ocated a minimum of 4 ft horizontally from such
l
areas.
4.Install above grade level and above normal snow
evels.
l
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 protected with a rust-resistant sheet metal plate.
Outdoor Installation
XTherm heaters are certified for outdoor operation in
non-freezing conditions only. Freezing conditions may
cause condensate to freeze in the condensate drain
line and trap causing the unit to shut down from a
blocked condensate drain. Additionally, components of
the condensate management system may be damaged by the ice formation. Units installed in freezing
climates for seasonal use must be winterized to avoid
freeze damage to the heater.
Outdoor models must be vented with listed vent material per the following instructions and installed with the
optional factory-supplied outdoor vent kit. A special
vent cap is provided in accordance with CSA requirements. It must be installed directly on the vent pipe as
illustrated in Fig. 29 on page 30.
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:
NOTE: The vent cap and air intake hood must be
furnished by the heater manufacturer in accordance
with its listing (sales order option D-11).
NOTE: Condensate can freeze on the vent cap.
Frozen condensate on the vent cap can result in a
blocked flue condition.
1.Outdoor models must be installed outdoors and
must use the outdoor vent cap 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.

Freeze Protection
The Raypak electronic temperature control includes a
reeze protection feature. In the event the water tem-
f
perature drops below 40°F at any of the heater
emperature sensors, the pump is turned on and will
t
remain on until the temperature at all heater sensors
ises to 45°F.
r
WARNING: Do not install the heater outdoors if
freezing conditions are typical. The condensate will
freeze and back up the flue system.
PVC Venting Option
Venting of the XTherm with PVC material requires the
factory installed D-32 adapter kit.
CAUTION: The inlet water temperature to the
XTherm must not exceed 170ºF at 100% fire to use
the PVC venting option.The venting system must
conform to local codes and/or the current National
Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54.
PRECAUTIONS: Always store primers, cleaner,
and cements in cool, dry, well ventilated places. Do
not store them near heat, sparks, or flames. Keep
containers closed. Use them in well ventilated areas.
Wear impervious clothing while handling. Do not
smoke, eat, or drink while handling. Wash thoroughly
after handling and before eating. Wear eye
protection when handling. If swallowed, drink water,
do not induce vomiting, and call a physician or
poison control center immediately. If inhaled, get
fresh air and seek medical attention if ill feelings
persist. In case of eye and/or skin contact,
immediately flush with plenty of water for 15 minutes
and seek medical attention if irritation persists.
All primers, cleaners, and cements must meet all
local codes.
•Before using primers, cleaners, and cements,
stir or shake, making sure contents are liquid. Do
not use if found to be lumpy or jelly-like.
•Restoration of the original viscosity or removal of
gelation by adding solvents or thinners is not
recommended.
•Primers and/or cement should be NSF and/or
UPC listed.
The PVC vent adapter should appear as in Fig. 30 and
Fig. 31.
Cleaning
Prior to installing the PVC pipe and fittings, ensure that
all burrs and/or ridges have been removed. Failure to
remove burrs or ridges will result in the cement in the
fitting socket being scraped from the socket surface,
producing a dry joint with a high probability of joint failure. Remove all burrs with a knife, or with abrasive
paper.
Surfaces to be joined must be cleaned and be free of
dirt, moisture, oil, and other foreign materials.
DANGER: Primer, cleaner, and cements are
extremely flammable. They are harmful or fatal if
swallowed. The vapors are harmful. They may
irritate eyes and skin and can be absorbed through
the skin. Read and observe all safety information
printed on primer, cleaner, and cement containers.
NOTE: Cleaners and primers are intended for
different functions and should not be considered
interchangeable.Verifywithventmaterial
manufacturer for specific requirements.
Termination
Termination should be accomplished using the adapter
thimble as shown in Fig. 32 and Fig. 33. The adapter
thimble is supplied by Rapak as part of the D-32
option.
PVC vent assembly instructions
1) Cut pipe ends squarely, removing all burrs and
dirt.
2) Dry fit pipe and fittings to be connected for proper
fit.
3) Clean pipe and fitting with a cleaner.
4) Apply a coat of primer to pipe and fitting.
5) Apply a thin coat of cement to fitting, avoiding puddling inside.

7) QUICKLY assemble parts while cement is fluid! If
ou wait too long, re-coat pipes.
y
8) Push pipe completely into socket of fitting, rotating
1/4 turn to achieve proper orientation until it bottoms out.
9) Hold pipe and fitting together for 30 seconds, then
carefully clean off excess with a cloth. The glue
bonds by melting the PVC and they will re-harden
during curing.
10) Allow connections a sufficient time to cure before
disturbing (follow manufacturer instructions).
11) A special sidewall vent adapter/termination must
be used as supplied by Raypak per our listing.
12) Rooftop installations must use a category IV listed
vent cap.
WARNING: Remember that vent pipes must be
adequately and securely supported; the vent weight
must not be supported by the heater; this may cause
unwarrantable damage.

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 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

Primary/Secondary pumping only, utilizing integral
injector pumps to maintain proper flows and temperatures in the heater.
Setpoint: The intended system supply temperature.
Deadband: Deadband is a band of temperature sens-
ing where no action occurs. All temperature controllers
have a deadband and the purpose is to prevent shortcycling of the heater. The on-board temperature
controller has a deadband of 2ºF around the differential.
Differential: A heat source must be operated with a
temperature differential in order to prevent shortcycling. The temperature differential is divided around
the “target” temperature or set-point. The Call For Heat
(CFH) contact will close in the controller when the
water temperature is below the target temperature by
1/2 of the differential setting, and will open when the
water temperature is above the target temperature by
1/2 of the differential setting. See Fig. 34.

heater shutdown temperature (max temperature). The
heater is enabled via dry contact at the Enable/Disable
connection at the low voltage terminal strip, and the firing rate is controlled by a 0-10 VDC signal from the
external sequencer.A control signal of ≥0.5 VDC
equates to minimum fire, and a signal of 10 VDC
equates to 100% firing rate.
NOTE: For Modes 7 and 8, connect to pins 13 and
14 on the low-voltage panel. See page 21. Use these
modes for systems using an external signal.

Definitions
NOTE: The defined terms are not active in all
modes of control operation.
% OUT - Current percent modulation rate of heater.
BOIL DSGN - Design boiler water temperature used in
heat loss calculations.
BOIL MASS - This setting allows adjustment in the
field for high or low thermal masses; High thermal
mass (setting=3) provides slower reaction, lower thermal mass (setting=1) provides faster reaction.
BOIL MAX - Highest outlet water temperature that the
control is allowed to use as a target temperature.
BOIL MIN - Lowest outlet water temperature that the
control is allowed to use as a target temperature.
BOIL ON - Accumulated runtime of heater (up to 999
hours, then resets to 0).
BOIL OUT - Actual heater outlet water temperature.
BOIL START - Starting boiler water temperature.
BOIL SUP - Actual system supply water temperature.
0-10VDC or 0-20 mA external input signal – When
the 0-10VDC signal is selected, an input voltage of 1
VDC corresponds to a boiler target temperature of
50°F (10°C). An input voltage of 10 VDC corresponds
to a boiler target temperature of 220°F (104°C). As the
voltage varies between 1 VDC and 10 VDC, the boiler
target temperature varies linearly between 50°F
(10°C) and 220°F (104°C). If a voltage below 0.5 VDC
is received, the boiler target temperature is displayed
as “– – –” indicating that there is no longer an internal
heat demand. A 0-20 mA signal can be converted to a
0-10 VDC signal by installing a 500 resistor on the
external input signal device’s terminals.
2-10VDC or 4-20 mA external input signal – When
the 2-10VDC signal is selected, an input voltage of 2
VDC corresponds to a boiler target temperature of
50°F (10°C). An input voltage of 10 VDC corresponds
to a boiler target temperature of 220°F (104°C). As the
voltage varies between 2 VDC and 10 VDC, the boiler
target temperature varies linearly between 50°F
(10°C) and 220°F (104°C). If a voltage below 1.5 VDC
is received, the boiler target temperature is displayed
as “– – –” indicating that there is no longer an internal
heat demand. A 4-20 mA signal can be converted to a
2-10 VDC signal by installing a 500 resistor on the
external input signal device’s terminals.
FP - Flame proof warning. Warns that the control did
not see burner flame within 5 min. of call for heat.
BOIL TARGET - Target temperature that the heater is
trying to maintain.
‘BURNER’ DELAY - Holds control output at ignition
setting from the start of the ignition sequence to the
specified burner delay time (0 to 3:00 min.).
DEM 1 - Indicates 24 VAC signal has been supplied to
the H+D terminal.
DEM 2 - Indicates 24 VAC Flame Proof signal is present.
DIFF - The operating differential of the heater; The
heater outlet water temperature is allowed to rise
1
above the BOIL TARGET temperature by
⁄2 of this dif-
ferential before the heater shuts off. For example, if
the heater target temperature is set to 160°F (71°C)
and the differential is set to 10°F (5°C), on temperature
rise, the heater will shut off at 165°F (74°C). Once the
heater shuts off, it will not come on again until the temperature falls to 155°F (68°C).
EXTERNAL INPUT SIGNAL – Selects external input
signal range (0-10VDC or 2-10VDC):
MODE - Operating mode of the heater.
OFFSET - The Offset setting allows the boiler target
temperature to be fine tuned to the external input signal. The control reads the external input signal and
converts this to a boiler target temperature. The Offset
setting is then added to the boiler target temperature.
OUTDR - Outdoor air temperature.
OUTDR DESIGN - Design outdoor air temperature
used in the heat loss calculation.
OUTDR START - Starting outdoor air temperature.
PUMP DLY - Sets the operating time of the pump once
the CFH is satisfied.
TANK - Current DHW tank temperature (Mode 3).
TANK DIFF - Storage tank differential (Mode 3).
TANK TARGET - Target temperature in the DHW
storage tank (Mode 3).

ond prepurge from when air flow is proven by
closure of the blower suction air pressure switch.
3. The igniter will be powered and once proven will
heat up for 20 seconds.
4. The gas valve is then energized for a 4 second
trial for ignition period. Trial for ignition is fixed at
50% input.The heater is allowed to modulate
once flame is proven and the firing rate will adjust
to match the load based on the configuration and
settings of the temperature control or external
input.
5. As the water approaches 120°F entering the pri-
mary heat exchanger the injector pumps will begin
feeding water from the system into the heater,
operating to maintain 120°F minimum into the primary heat exchanger.
When additional heat is needed, the combustion air
blower starts to purge air from the combustion chamber for 15 seconds. On proof-of-air flow, the
air-proving switch closes and the igniter is energized.
o ensure safe operation, the gas valve cannot open
T
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 reapply power.
6. Once the heat demand is satisfied the gas valve
will close and the blower will run a 30-second post
purge. The heater pump will continue to circulate
water for 0 to 10 minutes depending on the pump
delay setting on the Raypak modulating temperature control.

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 single-try ignition
module.

START-UP
EFORE OPERATING, smell all around the appliance
B
area for gas. Be sure to smell near the floor because
some gas is heavier than air and will settle on the floor.
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.
XTherm heaters are equipped with an air vent installed
in the inlet side of the header to ensure that air is
purged from the system. It includes an adapter to allow
the air vent to be piped (in the field) to a suitable drain
as required by the jurisdiction having authority.
CAUTION: An additional air vent should be
installed at the highest point in the system for proper
operation. If water piping is located higher than the
header, it should be relocated to the highest point in
the installed system.

Attach Manometers to Measure Pressures
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 4.0
in. WC, recommended supply is 7.0 in. WC, minimum supply pressure for propane gas is 4.0 in.
WC, recommended supply is 11.0 in. WC (dynamic readings, full fire input).
3. If the gas pressure is greater than 14.0 in. WC,
turn off the main gas shut-off valve.
Start-Up
NOTE: The values in Tables V, W and X represent
the conditions when the heater is at full firing rate at
sea level.
1. Turn power on.
2. Turn on the heater, wait approximately 15 seconds
after the blower starts, and the igniter should start
to glow (observable through the observation port
located at the front, bottom of the heater). Look
into the sight glass located at the bottom of the
front panel to check igniter operation. Gas valve
should open in 45-60 seconds.
1. Turn off main gas valve.
2. Attach (1) 12” scale manometer to an upstream
bleedle valve on the gas supply pipe to the heater
(Measure point “A” in Fig. 52).
3. Attach (1) 24” scale manometer to the manifold
pressure tap located on the elbow downstream of
the valve (Measure point “D” in Fig. 52).
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.
3. The heater ignites at 50% of full rate (as indicated

Blower Check
AIR PRESSURE SWITCH
A
B
1. Check the net blower suction using a 6-0-6 U-tube
manometer by connecting one end to the blower
suction pressure tee (attached to the negative side
f the air pressure switch, point “A” in Fig. 53) and
o
the other end to the tracking pressure tee
(attached to the positive side of the air pressure
switch, point “B” in Fig. 53). Read the differential
pressure with the heater firing at 100% input and
compare to Table U.
2. Check the tracking pressure by removing the end
of the U-tube manometer from the blower suction
pressure tee (point “A” in Fig. 53). Replace the
cap on the blower suction tee and check the tracking pressure (at point “B” in Fig. 53) with the heater
firing at 100% input. The tracking pressure provides feedback to the gas regulator to compensate
for various air ducting arrangements and changes
in the pressure drop across the combustion air filter. Initial readings with a clean air filter installed
must be recorded on the “Start-up Checklist” located at the back of this manual. When the tracking
pressure is more negative than -0.6 in. WC for
1005 and 1505 models or -0.8 in. WC on 2005
models and there are no obstructions to the air
intake, replace the combustion air filter. If the air
intake is obstructed, shut the unit off, clear the
obstruction, re-start and check the tracking pressure as previously noted.
NOTE: Most commercially available amp probes
re not accurate enough and/or are not shielded well

environment. Blower amp draw readings are for
reference only.
4. When firing at 100%, the desired heater combustion CO2 is between 8.5 and 9.0% for natural gas
and 9.5 and 10.0% for propane with CO less than
100 ppm. If this combustion cannot be achieved
with the net blower suction within the tolerances
specified in Table U, contact the factory. The reference amp draw reading may help to indicate if
there is a problem with the system or if blower
adjustment is required.
Manifold Check
1. Check manifold gas pressure at the gas valve outlet pressure tap (connection “D” in Fig. 51). This
pressure should read per the values in Table W for
natural and propane gas.
2. If the pressure reading differs by more than ± 0.2
in. WC, STOP – Call the factory for directions
on what to do next!

Leak Test Procedure: Dual-Seat Gas
Valve
Proper leak testing requires three pressure test points
in the gas train.
Remove the access panel on the rear of the heater to
access the gas valve for this test. Test point A is a bleedle valve located upstream of the combination gas
valve on the supply manifold.
NOTE: May have to remove HGPS (if applicable) to
conduct this test.
Test point B is a bleedle valve located between the two
automatic gas valve seats.
Test point C is a bleedle valve located downstream of
both automatic gas valve seats and upstream of the
manual valve. Refer to Fig. 54.
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 the bleedle valve at 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).
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 which must
be replaced.
4. Next, close the upstream manual gas valve (field
supplied) and remove the manometers from the
bleedle valves in test point A and test point B.
Connect a rubber tube from the test point A blee-

Post Start-Up Check
Check off steps as completed:
1.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.
4.Verify that air has been purged from the gas piping, and that the piping has been checked for
leaks.
5.Confirm that the proper start-up procedures were
followed.
6.Inspect burner to verify flame.
7.Test safety controls: If heater is equipped with a
low water cut-off or additional safety controls, test
for operation as outlined by manufacturer. Burner
should be operating and should go off when controls are tested. When safety devices are restored,
burners should re-ignite after pre-purge time
delay.
Fig. 54: Leak Test Procedure
5. Open the bleedle valve at 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 which must be replaced.
6. Remove rubber tube and manometers. Close
each test point bleedle valve as the tubes are
removed.
NOTE: Reinstall HGPS as applicable.
7. After no leakage has been verified at all valve
seats and test valves, open downstream leak test
valve and restore electrical power to the heater.
8.Test limit control: While burner is operating, move
indicator on high limit control below actual water
temperature. Burner should go off while blower
and circulator continue to operate. Raise setting
on limit control above water temperature and
burner should re-ignite after pre-purge time delay.
NOTE: Ignition control may have to be reset
after this portion of the test.
9.Test ignition system safety device:
a.Open manual gas valve. Turn power on.
b.Set thermostat to call for heat.
c.When the heater is in operation, pull cap off of
tee in air switch hose. The burner should go
off almost immediately.

tart-up. The condensate from flue gas is acidic.
s
Combustion air can be contaminated by certain vapors
in the air which raise the acidity of the condensate.
Higher acidity levels attack many materials including
tainless steel, which is commonly used in high effi-
s
ciency systems. The heater can be supplied with
orrosion-resistant, non-metallic intake air vent materi-
c
al. 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.
7. Test air switch in accordance with manufacturer’s
instructions. (Turn panel switch to the “On” position until blower is proven, then turn the switch to
“Off.”
8. Inspect and clean burner using shop air.
9. Reset fault history after any testing.
As Required
1. Recondition or replace low water cut-off device (if
equipped).
4. Check igniter. (Resistance reading should be 4270 ohms at ambient temperature).
5. Check flame signal strength. (Flame signal should
be greater than 1 microampere as measured at
the 2 pins on the upper left corner of the ignition
control).
6. Check firing rate control by checking the manifold
pressure. (See “Manifold Check” on page 46.)
7. Test safety/safety relief valve(s) in accordance
with ASME Heater and Pressure Vessel Code
Section IV and Section VIII as applicable.
