CTHN multiburner and CRVB systems are designed
for heating nonresidential indoor spaces. Model
CRVSF is for nonresidential indoor spaces where
exposed surfaces of heating equipment cannot
exceed temperatures of 750 °F (399 °C) in facilities where compressed natural gas (CNG) or liquid
natural gas (LNG) are present. Do not install in
residential spaces. These instructions, the layout
drawing, local codes and ordinances, and applicable
standards that apply to electrical wiring, venting, etc.
must be thoroughly
understood before proceeding
with the installation.
Protective gear is to be worn during installation,
operation and service in accordance to the
Occupational Safety and Hazard Administration
(OSHA). Gear must be in accordance to NFPA 70E,
latest revision when working with electrical
components. Thin sheet metal parts, such as various venting components, have sharp edges. To prevent
injury, the use of work gloves is recommended.
Do not attempt to operate the pump until all steps of
the installation have been accomplished.
This pump must be applied and operated under the
general concepts of reasonable use and installed
using best building practices.
This equipment is not intended for use by persons
(including children) with reduced physical, sensory or
mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowl-
edge, unless they have been given supervision or
instru
ction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety. Children should be
supervised to ensure that they do not play with the
equipment.
1.1 Manpower Requirements
To p r event personal injury and damage to the pump,
two persons will be required for installation.
1.2 Safety Labels and Their Placement
Product safety signs or labels should be replaced by
the product user when they are no longer legible.
Please contact Roberts-Gordon LLC or your

SECTION 2: INSTALLER R ESPONSIBILITY
CAUTION
Product Damage Hazard
Do not use heater in area containing
corrosive chemicals.
Refer to appropriate Material Safety Data
Sheets (MSDS).
Failure to follow these instructions can result
in product damage.
SECTION 2: INSTALLER RESPONSIBILITY
The installer is responsible for the following:
• To install the pump and electrical supplies, in
accordance with applicable specifications and
codes. Roberts-Gordon LLC recommends the
installer contact a local building inspector or fire
marshal for guidance.
• To use the information given in a layout drawing
and in the manual together with the cited codes
and regulations to perform the installation.
• To install the heater in accordance with the
clearances to combustibles.
• To furnish all needed materials not furnished as
standard equipment.
• To plan location of supports.
• To provide access to pump for servicing on all
sides and for pump removal.
• To provide the owner with a copy of this installation, operation and service manual.
• To never use pump or pump platform as support
for ladder or other access equipment and never
hang or suspend anything from pump or pump
platform.
• To safely and adequately install pump using
materials with a minimal working load of 750 lb
(340 kg).
• To ensure the pump is placed in an approved
application.
• For CRVSF-Series only: To install system with a
minimum of 18" (45 cm) ceiling clearance in
accordance to National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) 30A (2012 edition).
2.1 Corrosive Chemicals
Roberts-Gordon LLC cannot be responsible for
ensuring that all appropriate safety measures are
undertaken prior to installation; this is entirely the
responsibility of the installer. It is essential that the
contractor, the sub-contractor, or the owner identifies
the presence of combustible materials, corrosive
chemicals or halogenated hydrocarbons* anywhere
in the premises.
* Halogenated Hydrocarbons are a family of chemical compounds characterized by the presence of halogen elements (fluorine, chlorine, bromine, etc.). These compounds are
frequently used in refrigerants, cleaning agents, solvents, etc. If
these compounds enter the air supply of the burner, the life span
of the heater components will be greatly reduced. An outside air
supply must be provided to the burners whenever the presence
of these compounds is suspected. Warranty will be invalid if the
heater is exposed to halogenated hydrocarbons.
2.2 National Standards and Applicable Codes
All Appliances must be installed in accordance with
the latest revision of the applicable standards and
national codes. This refers also to the electric, gas
and venting installation. Note: Additional standards
for installations in Public Garages, Aircraft Hangars,
etc. may be applicable.

6.1.1 Attaching Pressure Switch to Pump Inlet
Apply silicone sealant (600 °F) to the threads of the
pressure switch and then screw the pressure switch
into the 1/8" NPT hole provided on the pump inlet.
See Page 12, Figure 4. Care must be taken to make
certain that the application of silicone does not plug
the orifice hole of the pressure switch. Without pump verification, the system will not operate.
Using screws and locknuts included, mount the
switch to the pump frame. Thread the barbed fitting
into the threaded hole at the pump inlet. Cut the silicone tube to the appropriate length to eliminate the
possibility of kinks and securely attach the hose to
the pressure s
The standard method of mounting the pump is on an
outside wall and venting directly through the wall.
The pump may be mounted by using mounting
angles as shown in Figure 12and Figure 13. The two
mounting angles form a mounting platform to which
the pump will be attached.
Fix the mounting frame to the wall using anchors.
Select an anchor that will give equal to or greater
than 2000 lbs ultimate pull-out strength.
For CRVSF-Series only, a minimum of 18" (45 cm)
ceiling clearance in accordance to National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) 30A latest revision is

9.7 Condensate Tee Assembly
The condensate tee assembly is composed of a tee,
draincap, and condensate trap.
If the system is designed in the condensing mode, then
the installation of a condensate tee assembly is
required. The condensate tee assembly, must be
installed on the inlet side of the pump assembly if there
is horizontal venting of the pump, See Page 21, Figure
18.
A condensate drain on the discharge side is required
if there is vertical venting of the pump or if there is a
vertical rise in the discharge line away from the
pump. See Page 21, Figure .
The condensate tee assembly in the discharge line
can be eliminated if the discharge line is horizontal
through the wall and pitched down at least 1/4" per
10' (6 mm per 3 m). This arrangement will permit
drainage of condensate through the pump and
outside via the horizontal (pitched) discharge line.

9.8.1 Condensate Neutralization Tube (optional)
If a condensate neutralization tube is specified to be
used with the heating system, follow the steps below to choose the proper condensate neutralization tube.
See Page 23, Figure 20.
Step 1: Condensate flow (gal/h) per 100,000 Btu/h
installed
Yo u will need to know the tailpipe length per flow unit
and the total input (Btu/h) on the heating system.
Please refer to the following chart to determine the
condensate flow (gal/h) per 100,000 Btu/h installed:
Radiant Tube

Recommended0.10.30.60.8
Maximum0.30.60.80.8
Minimum Recommended
Tailpipe Length per Flow Unit
1.7 ft/flow
unit
Maximum
Step 2: Total condensate
Determine the total condensate (gal/h) using the
follow calculation:
Total condensate (gal/h) = Total Input (Btu/h) /
100,000 (Btu/h) x condensate flow (gal/h)
Step 3: Choose the condensate neutralization
tube
Multiply the total input Btu/h / 100,000 by the
condensate flow (gal/h) per 100,000 (Btu/h)
(600,000/100,000) x 0.3 = 1.8 (gal/h)
Step 3: Choose the condensate neutralization
tube
Choose the condensate neutralization tube which is
closest to and higher than the calculated gal/h value.
For this example, the total condensate is 1.8 (gal/h),
the condensate neutralization tube which is closest
to and higher than the calculated gal/h value is P/N
01327002.
