Variable Water Flows
Figure 5 shows a typical primary/secondary piping
system. A dedicated pump is used to maintain a
constant water flow through the boiler. This secondary
pump is sized to overcome the head loss of the boiler
and secondary piping system while supplying the flow
rate required to maintain the desired temperature rise
across the boiler. The primary pump is sized to provide
the required flow to the heating system. The secondary
piping connections to the primary system piping must
not be more than 12 in,
pressure drop in the primary system, see Figure 5.
Low Return Water Temperatures
To prevent the problems associated with condensation
of the products of combustion due to low return water
temperatures a primary/secondary piping system with
a bypass and bypass valve must be installed, see Figure
6. The bypass and bypass valve must be sized the same
as the secondary piping. A balancing valve must also
be installed in the supply side of the secondary piping
downstream of the bypass. The balancing valve should
be adjusted to divert some of the heated discharge
water into the return water until the required inlet water
temperature is achieved. The primary and secondary
pumps should be sized to provide the required flow
through each system. The secondary piping connections
to the primary system piping must not be more than 12
in,

primary system, see Figure 6.
Multiple Boiler Systems
Systems using multiple boilers can also be installed
using a primary/secondary manifold system, Figure 7.
Piping For Use With Cooling Units
The boiler, when used in connection with a refrigeration
system, must be installed so the chilled medium is piped
in parallel with the boiler. Appropriate valves must be
used to prevent the chilled water from entering the
boiler.
When a boiler is connected to a heating coil that may
be exposed to refrigerated air from an air handling
device, the piping system must be equipped with flowcontrol valves or some other automatic means of
preventing gravity circulation of the boiler water during
the cooling cycle.

DOMESTIC WATER SUPPLY PIPING
CAUTION: Proper controls must be used to prevent
water supplied for domestic use from exceeding
130°F, 54°C or a scald injury will occur! When higher
water temperatures are required for appliances such
as a dishwasher, a mixing valve or some other
tempering means must be installed. Households with
small children may require water temperatures less
than 120°F, 49°C. Local codes must be complied with!
General Piping Requirements
Ensure that the water heater is equipped with bronze
headers. Piping and components connected to the water
heater must be suitable for use with potable water. The
water heater must not be connected to any heating
system piping or components previously used with a
non-potable water heating appliance. No toxic
chemicals, such as those used for boiler treatment, are
to be introduced into any potable water used for space
heating. If a hot water storage tank is used in the
system, it must be equipped with a temperature and
pressure relief valve that complies with ANSI Z21.22 or
CAN-4.4 and CAN-4.6.
NOTE: The storage tank must be located as close
to the water heater as possible to prevent excessive
head loss which will reduce flow.
Water Chemistry
The required temperature rise across the water heater
is based on water having a hardness between 5 and
25 grains per gallon with a level of dissolved solids not
exceeding 350 ppm. Water having a hardness less than
5 grains can cause excessive corrosion of the heat
exchanger. Water that has a hardness greater than 25
grains per gallon and/or a level of dissolved solids
exceeding 350 ppm will require a recalculation of the
pump size and temperature rise.
A cupro-nickel heat exchanger may also be required.
The manufacturer should be consulted when these
water conditions are encountered. See Table 7A.
Page 14
SPECTRUM INSTALLATION AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONSPage 14
RBI water heaters are designed to run scale free. Due
to the extreme variables of water conditions world wide
it is necessary to consider pH values and water
hardness in relationship to scaling. It is crucial to
consider these two variables when making heat
exchanger and pump selections. If local water conditions
are extreme follow the guidelines in the Heat Exchanger
Selection Table (Table 7A) and the Pumping
Performance Table (Table 7B). Scale free operation can
be achieved by using water with a hardness between 8
and 18 and by maintaining the pH between 5 and 9.
Follow the conditions listed under NORMAL in the table.
In some areas of the country additional precautions
must be observed due to unusual characteristics of the
local water supply. Call the nearest RBI representative
for details.
To properly size the pump a grain hardness and pH test
must be taken at the installation site before the order is
placed. Proper pump sizing will improve heater
performance and help ensure heater longevity.
Expansion Tank
An expansion tank or other means to control thermal
expansion must be installed in the water heating system
if back flow prevention devices are installed.
Pump Requirements
This low-mass water heater requires a continuous minimum water flow for proper operation. The factory
recommended circulating pump has been sized to
overcome the head loss of the water heater plus a 30
foot piping loop under normal water conditions.
provides the heat exchanger pressure drop chart and
temperature rise table. The temperature rise across the
water heater must never exceed 30°F, 16.7 °C.
Table 7B
Temperature Rise Control
Water returned to the water heater inlet must not be less
than 110°F, 43°C or excessive condensation of the
products of combustion will damage the water heater
voiding the warranty. The method outlined below can be
employed to prevent this condition from occurring.
A balancing valve should be installed on the outlet side
of the water heater for purposes of adjusting the flow
rate through the heat exchanger. Thermometers are
installed on both the inlet and outlet of the water heater
for determining the temperature rise through the unit.
The proper velocity through the water heater must be
maintained in accordance with Table 7B for efficient
operation and long life. If the temperature rise through
the water heater is lower than recommended, the water
velocity is too high. Premature erosion of the heat
exchanger will occur. Conversely, if the temperature rise
is higher than recommended in Table 7B the flow rate is
too low. Scaling and softening of the heat exchanger will
occur.
Thermostatic Mixing Valve - Water Above 140°F, 60°
Water can be stored at temperatures above 140°F,
60 °C
provided that a thermostatically controlled mixing
valve is used to temper the hot water to an acceptable
temperature before it’s supplied for domestic use.
The mixing valve MUST be set to prevent a scald injury
from occurring, see the caution against scalding.
Storage of water for domestic use above 140°F, 60°
will provide an increased quantity of tempered water and
help prevent the growth of water born bacteria.

GAS SUPPLY PIPING
WARNING: Check the boiler/water heater rating
plate to make sure that the boiler/water heater is
for the type of gas that will be used. If it isn’t, do
not connect the boiler/water heater to the gas
supply. Gas supply piping must be in accordance
with the National Fuel Code, ANSI Z223.1-latest
revision or applicable provisions of the local
building codes. Canadian Installations must
comply with CAN/CGA B149.1 or .2 Installation
Code. Failure to comply with this warning can
result in extensive property damage, severe
personal injury or death!
The Spectrum boiler/water heaters come from the
factory ready to be piped to the gas supply. If for any
reason the boiler/water heater is not for the type of gas
available at the installation site, call the nearest RBI
representative to resolve the problem.
NOTE: A minimum gas supply pressure of 5 in,
127 mm
and maximum 14 in,
must be available at the safety shutoff valve inlet
with the unit(s) operating.
Table 9 should be used to ensure that the gas supply
piping is sized properly. If more than one appliance is
supplied by the same supply pipe, the piping must be
sized based on the maximum possible demand. Do not
neglect the pressure drop due to pipe fittings. Table 9
should be used in conjunction with Table 10 to ensure
that the gas supply piping has the capacity to meet the
demand.

Figure 10 depicts the proper way to connect the
boiler/water heater to the gas supply piping. The manual
shut-off valve MUST be installed in the supply piping. It
should be installed 5 ft,
1.5 m
above the floor where
required by local codes. Provide a sediment trap at the
bottom of the vertical section of the gas supply pipe
upstream of the gas controls.
A ground joint union should be installed between the
boiler gas controls and the supply piping. Each of these
items are needed to ensure long life and ease of
servicing. Always use a pipe sealant that is suitable for
use with LP gas.

When applicable, provisions for vent, bleed and gas
relief lines must be made in accordance with the latest
revision of ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54.
Safe lighting and other performance criteria were met
with the gas manifold and control assembly provided on
the boiler. All gas connections MUST be leak tested
before putting the boiler into operation.
WARNING: Never use an open flame to test for
gas leaks. Always use an approved leak detection method. Failure to comply with this warning
can cause extensive property damage, severe
personal injury or death!
Whenever the gas supply piping is pressure tested the
boiler/water heater gas controls must be protected. If the
test pressure is equal to, or less than 1/2 psig,
isolate the boiler/water heater by closing it’s manual shut

than, or equal to 1/2 psig,
boiler/water heater and its individual shut-off valve.
Required Gas Pressure
Provide gas supply pressure at inlet to boiler gas train
as follows:
Minimum (in W.C.) 12 5
Maximum (in W.C.) 14 14
Measure pressure when boiler is firing at full rate. Low
gas pressure could indicate undersized gas line or
insufficient gas supply.
"Static and operating gas pressure required at the gas
valve inlet is between 5" W.C. and 14" W.C. for natural
gas and 12" W.C. and 14" W.C. for propane. If the gas
pressure is above this limit, a lock-up style regulator
suitable for dead end service such as an Equimeter
or Fisher must be installed to prevent increase (creep)
of gas pressure when the units are not operating.
This pressure regulator (supplied by others) may be
installed at the service entrance to each unit or a
"master" regulator sized to handle multiple units may
be utilized. Consult local gas utility or regulator

3. Replace the pressure regulator adjustment screw
cap.
Figure 11 - Pilot Flame Adjustment
Gas Pressure Adjustment
CAUTION: The maximum inlet gas pressure listed on
the rating plate must not be exceeded or damage
to the boiler/water heater may occur!
The minimum supply pressure listed on the rating plate
is for input adjustment.
of the flame sensing probe, Figure
RIOM-48
PROPANE GAS: A manifold pressure of 11 in,
279 mm
W.C. must be maintained for proper operation of the
boiler. If the manifold pressure is off by more than 5%
adjust it according to steps 1 through 4.
Input Rate, Natural Gas
Gas appliances are rated based on sea level operation
with no adjustment required at elevations up to 2000 ft,
610 m
. At elevations above 2000 ft,
610 m
, input ratings
should be reduced by 4% for each additional 1000 ft,
305 m
.
Check the input rate as follows:
1. Turn off all other gas appliances that use the same
gas meter as the boiler/water heater.
2. Call your gas supplier and ask for the heating value
of the gas.
3. Start the boiler/water heater and let it run for 15
minutes.
4. Using the gas meter and a stopwatch, clock the time
that it takes to burn 10 ft3,
0.28m
3
of gas and divide
this time by 10.
5. Insert the heating value and the time, in seconds,
into the formula below.
6. Input = (heating value, Btu/hr)(3600)/(time, seconds)
7. If the computed rate deviates by more than 5% from
the rated input value of the unit adjust the manifold
pressure accordingly. DO NOT adjust the manifold
pressure by more than 5%. If a proper rate cannot
be maintained without adjusting the manifold
pressure beyond the 5% limit, the main burner
orifices must be replaced. If the input rate is too low,
go to the next larger size of main burner orifices. If
the input rate is too high, go to the next smaller size.
NATURAL GAS: Optimum results are obtained when the
boiler/water heater is operated at its full input rating, with
3.8 in to 4.2 in,
96.5 mm to 106.7 mm
W.C. of manifold
pressure. The manifold pressure should not vary outside
this range. The gas valve pressure regulator has been
preset at the factory. If adjustment is necessary the
following steps must be followed:
1. Attach a 20 in,
508 mm
W.C. manometer to the tap
on the manifold.
2. Remove the regulator adjustment screw cap from
the gas regulator. On systems that do not use a
separate gas regulator, remove the adjustment screw
cap from the gas valve body on the valve closest to
the gas supply piping.
3. Rotate the regulator adjustment screw clockwise to
increase the manifold pressure, counterclockwise to
decrease it.
4. Replace the regulator adjustment screw cap and
manifold pressure tap plug.
CAUTION: Never force the regulator adjustment
screw beyond the stop limits or damage to the
regulator will occur!
CAUTION: Never increase the input to the boiler/
water heater above that for which it is rated. Doing
so can cause premature failure of the unit!
CONTROL DESCRIPTION
Low Water Cutoff
If the boiler is to be installed above radiation or if
required by other codes or regulations, install a low
water cutoff in appropriate piping.
If installed, ensure that the low water cutoff device(s)
function properly. Test in accordance with the
manufacturer’s instructions included with the device(s).
Boiler Thermostat
If a thermostat is to be used to control the boiler always
follow the instructions included with the thermostat.
Proper location of the thermostat will ensure efficient
trouble-free operation of the boiler. Mount the thermostat
to an inside wall at a height approximately five feet
above the floor.
Page 23
SPECTRUM INSTALLATION AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Page 23
Avoid placing the thermostat in areas that will not
provide an accurate measurement of the room
temperature. Locating the thermostat behind a door, in
an alcove, close to a source of thermal radiation or in a
drafty area will cause poor or sporadic heating.
For a thermostat that employs an adjustable heat
anticipator, adjust the anticipator to match the current
measured in the thermostat circuit. An increased
anticipator setting may be necessary if the unit cycles
frequently. If the room temperature over-shoots the
thermostat setting, reduce the anticipator setting.
Operating Control
The preferred control setting for potable hot water is
130˚F,
lowest setting that will satisfy the consumer's needs.
High Limit (Aquastat)
The high limit is located in the top control area of the
boiler/water heater. A remote capillary bulb is run to a
well on the outlet side of the supply header.
54˚C
. The operating control should be set to the
WARNING: Setting the thermostat or operating
control too high can result in scalding resulting
in severe personal injury!

above.
2. Inspect the combustion chamber panels using a
mirror and light. If any of the combustion chamber
panels are damaged or show signs of deterioration
replace them.
3. Replacement of the combustion chamber panels
requires that the heat exchanger be removed as
outlined below.
4. Reinstall the burner drawer as outlined above.
Heat Exchanger Inspection & Cleaning
1. Close the manual shutoff valve in the gas supply
line and turn off electrical power to the boiler/ water
heater.
2. Close the shut off valves in the inlet and outlet piping. Relieve the system pressure from the boiler/
water heater by carefully opening the drain valve.
3. Disconnect the boiler/water heater from the system
piping.
4. Remove the left and right headers and mounting
studs.
5. Disconnect the flue pipe at the boiler/water heater.
6. Remove the top jacket panel.
7. On indoor units remove the draft hood from the back
of the unit. On outdoor units remove the rear jacket
panel.
8. Remove the flue collector.
9. Carefully lift the heat exchanger out of the unit and
thoroughly inspect it.
10. The outside surfaces of the copper tubes should be
free of any soot deposits. A slight black smudge is
normal with some types of gases. Black soot
indicates poor combustion. Green deposits indicate
condensation due to low return water temperatures.
In either case the heat exchanger must be cleaned
thoroughly with water and the problem resolved
before the boiler/water heater is returned to service.
11. Replace the cleaned heat exchanger and other
components in the reverse order of their removal.
2. A damaged heat exchanger must be replaced and
the condition that caused the damage resolved
before the boiler/water heater is returned to service.
Vent System
Thoroughly inspect the vent system for any signs of
blockage, corrosion or leakage. Immediately replace any
unsound vent system piping.
Controls

AND ADJUSTMENTS” sections of this manual for
reference.
1. Check the thermostat or operating controls for proper
operation.
2. A float type low water cutoff device must be flushed
out per the manufacturers’ instructions. The probe
on a probe low water cut off must be removed,
cleaned and inspected at least once a year. Ensure
that the low water cutoffs operate properly. If not,
replace them.
3. The flow switch contacts must be open when water
flow is not present.
4. The relief valve should not weep or discharge water
at normal system pressure. If it does contact a qualified service technician to have it inspected. NEVER
try to clean or repair the relief valve! If the valve fails
to operate properly, have it replaced!
5. The aquastat high limit controls the maximum water
temperature in the boiler. It should be set at least
20°F, 11°C above the operator set point. If the water
temperature reaches the set temperature before the
demand for heat has been met, the aquastat high
limit should shut the boiler off. The water
temperature should never exceed the maximum set
point of 240°F,
116°C
. The aquastat high limit cannot
be repaired. If it fails to function properly, replace it.
6. Visually check the pilot and main burner flames to
ensure proper operation, see Figures 11 & 13.
WARNING: Yellow, floating flames indicate a lack
of combustion air. A lifting flame indicates too
much combustion air. Do not operate the boiler
until the problem is solved or severe personal
injury or death may occur!
