CAUTION:
NOTE:
DANGER: Make sure the gas on which the boiler
will operate is the same type as that specified on the
boiler 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 boiler. Instead, shut off
the gas supply at a location external to the boiler.
WARNING: Do not use this boiler if any part has
been under water. Immediately call a qualified

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 boiler free of
combustible materials, gasoline, and other
flammable liquids and vapors.
•Boiler should never be covered or have any
blockage to the flow of fresh air to the boiler.
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 XFyre heater is installed to replace an
existing heater, the vent system MUST be verified to
be of the correct size and of one of the Category IV
vent materials identified in this manual. If it is NOT,
it MUST be replaced.

GENERAL SAFETY
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
180°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.
Time/Temperature
Relationships in Scalds
•Feel water before bathing or showering.
•Temperature limiting valves are available.
NOTE: When this 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.
CAUTION: Hotter water increases the risk of
scalding! There is a hot water scald potential if the
thermostat is set too high.
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.

Service
Clearances
CAUTION: The boiler must be mounted on a level
base to allow condensate to drain properly from the
heat exchanger. The condensate is acidic and
highly corrosive.
CAUTION: This boiler 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.
In addition, the heater shall be installed such that the
gas ignition system components are protected from
water (dripping, spraying, rain, etc.) during appliance
operation or service (circulator replacement, control
replacement, etc.).
Service clearances less than the minimum may
require removal of the heater to service either the heat
exchanger or the burner components. 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.

area of the relief valve outlet and must be routed to a
safe point of discharge. Installation must comply with
all national, state and local codes.
WARNING: The pressure relief valve must be
installed at the outlet of the boiler. No valve is
permitted to be installed between the boiler and the
relief valve.
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.
3. Check for leaks. Repair if found.
Hydronic Heating
Pump Selection
In order to ensure proper performance of your heater
system, you must install a correctly-sized pump. Raypak recommends designing for a ∆T within the range
of 15°F to 35°F (8°C to 19°C). See Table H for acceptable flow rates for each model (∆T is the temperature
difference between the inlet and outlet water when the
heater is firing at full rate).
Raypak standard pump selection for H models is
based on a 30º ∆T, and allows for up to 75 equivalent
feet of tubing between the boiler and the system connections.

Unlike many types of heaters, this heater does not require hydrostatic testing prior to being placed in
operation. The heat exchanger is ASME certified for
160 psi maximum working pressure. However, Raypak
does recommend hydrostatic testing of the piping con-

Feedwater Regulator
aypak recommends that a feedwater regulator be in-
R
stalled 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. 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.
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. 6 above.
Three-Way Valves
Three-way valves intended to regulate system water
temperatures by reducing flow in the boiler should not
be used. Raypak heaters are high-recovery, low-mass
heaters which are not subject to thermal shock.
Applications & Modes
The VERSA IC Control system is designed for a wide
range of applications. The installer/design engineer
should refer to the following Modes to determine which
best fits the intended application and functionality for
the unit being installed.
Type H models of XFyre have three modes available
to them to address the various applications the units
can be applied to. Type WH units will only have the
WH configuration available to them for use with
potable water applications when directly connected to
a hot water storage tank.
Mode 1 (Type H Units Only)
This mode selection is for hydronic heating systems
with single or multiple boilers (Maximum 4 boilers) in
primary/secondary piping configuration with or without
Outdoor Air Reset (S4). The system temperature is
controlled by the System sensor (S3). The Boiler
Pump (P1) runs during any call for heat. The System
Pump (P2) runs whenever the system is enabled for
heating and the outdoor air temperature is lower than
the warm weather shut down (WWSD) temperature
setting (if utilized). The Boiler Pump and System Pump
are delayed “off” as user defined in the ADJUST
menu.
Notes: Basis for minimum flow is ∆T . Basis for maximum flow is gpm.

NOTE: MODE 1 can also be used for process heating applications in conjunction with a buffer/storage
tank when operating temperatures above 150°F are
required. Care must be given to ensuring water hardness is less than 5 grains per gallon to ensure scale
free operation.
Mode 2 (Type H Units Only)
This mode selection is for hydronic heating systems
with single or multiple boilers (Maximum 4 boilers) in
primary/secondary piping configuration with or without
Outdoor Air Reset (S4) with indirect DHW on the system loop (with or without priority). The system
temperature is controlled by the System sensor (S3).
The Indirect DHW sensor (S5) determines the indirect
call/tank setpoint. The system temperature is boosted
to Target Max when using the Indirect DHW sensor
(S5) during an indirect call for heat. Priority mode toggles off the System Pump (P2) when an indirect call for
heat is present. The Boiler Pump (P1) runs during any
call for heat. The Indirect DHW Pump (P3) runs during
an indirect call for heat with no “off” delay. The Boiler
Pump (P1) and System Pump (P2) delay “off” as user
defined in the ADJUST menu. The System Pump (P2)
runs whenever the system is enabled for heating and
the outdoor air temperature is lower than the WWSD
temperature setting (if utilized) unless an indirect call
for heat is present with priority.

Mode 3 (Type H Units Only)
This mode selection is for hydronic heating systems
with single or multiple boilers (Maximum 4 boilers) in
primary/secondary piping configuration with or without
Outdoor Air Reset (S4) with indirect DHW on the boiler loop (with priority). The system temperature is
controlled by the Supply sensor (S3) whenever the

sensor (S5) determines the indirect call/tank setpoint.
During an indirect call for heat the boiler firing rate is
determined by the water temperature at the Indirect
Supply sensor (S6) and the Target Max setting when
using the Indirect DHW sensor (S5). The Boiler Pump
(P1) runs during all heat calls regardless of priority.
The Indirect DHW Pump (P3) runs during an indirect
call for heat with no “off” delay. The Boiler Pump (P1)
and System Pump (P2) delay “off” as user defined in
the ADJUST menu. The system pump (P2) runs
whenever the system is enabled for heating and the
outdoor air temperature is lower than the WWSD temperature setting (if utilized) unless an indirect call for
heat is present.
NOTE: A Tank Aquastat can be used in lieu of the
Indirect DHW Sensor (S5). See the VERSA IC
Applications Guide for additional details.
WH – Direct DHW Configuration
When the unit is ordered as a “WH” configuration the
only application available to it is direct DHW with single or multiple heaters (Maximum 4 heaters). The tank
temperature is controlled by the System sensor (S3).
The Boiler Pump (P1) runs during any call for heat.
The System Pump (P2) output is active whenever the
system is enabled. The Boiler Pump is delayed “off”
after the Tank Target temperature is achieved and as
user defined in the ADJUST menu.
NOTE: WH units will operate to a maximum tank
temperature of 150F. For temperatures required
above 150F an “H” model boiler must be used and
great care must be given to ensuring water hardness
is less than 5 grains per gallon to ensure scale free
operation. MODE 1 should be used and configured
for setpoint operation for process heating applications.
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 and medium water. Hard water must be softened
for direct heating with the XFyre. Water hardness is
expressed in grains per gallon.
NOTE: If local codes require a vacuum relief valve,
acquire one locally and install per valve
manufacturer’s instructions.
16
Potable Water and Space Heating
Gas Supply
CAUTION: When this heater is used for both
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.
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.
WARNING: Plumbing between the heater and tank
in excess of 75 equivalent feet will require custom
pump selection. Damage due to low flow may occur
and is not a warrantable failure. Consult with your
local Raypak representative.
NOTE: The 75 eq. feet of tubing typically represents
25 linear feet of tubing and 50 eq. feet of fittings.
DANGER: Make sure the gas on which the heater
will operate is the same type as specified on the 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. Refer to Table K for
maximum pipe lengths.
Gas Supply Connection
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 greater
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. FAIL-
URE 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.

CAUTION: Do not use Teflon tape on gas line pipe
thread. A pipe compound rated for use with natural
and propane gases is recommended. Apply
sparingly only on male pipe ends, leaving the two
end threads bare.
Gas Supply Pressure
A minimum of 4.0 in. WC upstream gas pressure
under full load and a maximum gas supply pressure
setpoint of 10.5 in. WC under load and no-load condi-
ions for natural gas. A minimum of 4.0 in. WC
t
upstream gas pressure under full load and a maximum
gas supply pressure setpoint of 13.0 in. WC is required
for propane gas. The gas pressure regulator(s) supplied on the heater is for low-pressure service. If
upstream pressure exceeds 1/2 psi at any time, an
intermediate gas pressure regulator, of the lockup
type, must be installed. This regulator should be
placed a minimum distance of 10 times the pipe diameter upstream of the heater gas controls.
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. The gas valve pressure regulator
on the heater is nominally preset as noted in Table J.
During normal operation, carbon dioxide should be 8.5
to 9.0% at full fire for natural gas and between 9.5 and
10.0% for propane gas. Carbon monoxide should be
‹150 ppm.
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.

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.
The XFyre 300A–850A heaters are wired for 120 VAC
single-phase 60 Hz power. Consult the wiring diagram
shipped with the heater. Before starting the heater,
check to ensure proper voltage to the heater and
pump(s). A larger circuit breaker may be needed for
pumps larger than 1/4 hp.
The boiler pump (up to 1 hp) and the indirect DHW
pump (up to ¼ hp) get their power supply directly from
the heater power supply (connections are located in
the rear wiring box). The system pump relay is rated
75

for pilot duty only. XFyre heaters may power up to 2
pumps directly. Install a circuit breaker sized sufficiently for both the heater and the pump(s). An indirect
DHW pump larger than ¼ hp or 5A must use a separate power supply and run the power through an
external field supplied pump contactor. Use appropriately-sized wire as defined by NEC, CSA and/or local
codes. All primary wiring should be 125% of minimum
rating. The indirect and system pumps outputs are
fuse protected.
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.
All 120VAC field wiring connections to the XFyre
heater are made inside the rear wiring box as shown
in Fig. 12. Low voltage wiring is connected to the
VERSA control board and the Platform Ignition Module
(PIM) at the front of the unit. Sensors, enable/disable
contacts, (optional) 0-10VDC control wiring, and cascade connections are wired into the VERSA and PIM
field wiring plugs. See the wiring diagram on page 44.

unit or larger.
Fig. 13: Multi-meter
Making the Electrical Connections
Refer to Fig. 12–20.
1. Verify that circuit breaker is properly sized by
referring to heater rating plate. A dedicated circuit
breaker should be provided and sized for the
heater and all pumps powered through the heater.
NOTE: Current draw noted on rating plate does not
include pump current.
Fig. 12: Wiring Connections
WARNING: Using a multi-meter, check the
following voltages at the circuit breaker panel prior to
connecting any equipment. Make sure proper
polarity is followed and house ground is proven.
(See Fig. 13.)
Check the power source:
AC = 108 VAC Minimum, 132 VAC MAX
AB = 108 VAC Minimum, 132 VAC MAX
BC = <1 VAC Maximum
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 at the J-box inside the heater.
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.
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.

Wiring the Outdoor Sensor
1. There is no connection required if an outdoor sensor is not used in this installation.
. If using an Outdoor Sensor, connect the sensor
2
wires to the terminals marked OUTDOOR SENSOR (see wiring diagram). Caution should be
used to ensure neither of these terminals
becomes connected to ground.
3. Use a minimum 18 AWG wire for runs of up to 150
feet.
CAUTION: Sensor and control wiring must NOT be
un in conduit or chases with line voltage.
r
Wiring the Optional 0–10 Volt
Building Control Signal
. A signal from an energy management system may
1
be connected to the XFyre boiler. This signal
should be a 0-10 volt positive DC signal, and an
energy management system can be used to control either the setpoint temperature or the firing
rate of the XFyre boiler.
4. Mount the outdoor sensor on an exterior surface of
the building, preferably on the north side in an
area that will not be affected by direct sunlight and
that will be exposed to varying weather conditions.
Wiring the Indirect Sensor
1. There is no indirect sensor connection required if
an indirect water heater is not used in the installation.
2. When the Indirect DHW call for heat is active, the
PIM communicates this to the VERSA. The
VERSA calculates the optimal operation and
sends the firing rate and pump output requests to
the PIM so it can activate the Indirect DHW pump
and Boiler pump if needed. If an optional Indirect
DHW sensor is connected to J2-1 and J2-2 the
PIM will pass this signal to the VERSA. This allows
the VERSA to optimize the Indirect DHW demand
to maintain the Indirect DHW setpoint. The Indirect
DHW thermostat switch closure is not required
when using the Indirect DHW sensor. If a VERSA
is not present the PIM shall activate the Indirect
DHW pump whenever the Indirect DHW call is
active. The Boiler pump may also be activated
based on the Indirect DHW piping configuration
setting.
3. Connect the indirect tank sensor to the terminals
marked INDIRECT DHW SENSOR (see wiring
diagram). Caution should be used to ensure neither of these terminals becomes connected to
ground.
2. To enable this remote control function, set dip
switch 5 to the UP position on the PIM. Dip switch
5 Toggles between an EMS (UP) signal or a
demand signal from the VERSA (DOWN). Dip
switch 2 on the PIM toggles between a Direct
Drive (UP) input and a Target Temperature
(DOWN) setpoint.
3. For a 4-20mA application, refer to the VERSA IC
Applications Guide.
4. Connect an Energy Management system or other
auxiliary control signal to the terminals marked 010V (+ /-) on the PIM (see Fig. 16). Caution should
be used to ensure that the +0-10V connection
does not create a short to ground.
Wiring the Cascade System
Communication Bus
1. Designate the primary boiler as the master
boiler/boiler1 by leaving dip switch 2 on the
VERSA in the ON position. All other VERSA controls require dip switch 2 to be toggled OFF,
designating them as followers. Follower VERSA’s
are ignored by their corresponding PIM’s. Use
standard 18 AWG wire to connect the master
VERSA to the PIM on the followers. A total of 3 followers can be connected to the VERSA on the
master. For systems requiring more than 4 connected boilers, an external sequencer such as the
Raypak Temp Tracker Mod+ Hybrid can be used.
NOTE: Alternately, a thermostat contact closure can
be used in lieu of the sensor for indirect operation.
Connect the thermostat to the terminals marked IND
REMOTE THERMOSTAT.
22
VERSA
MASTER
2. It is recommended that the shortest length cable
possible be used to reach between the boilers. Do
not run unprotected cables across the floor or
where they will become wet or damaged. Do not
run communication cables parallel with, or close to
or against, high voltage (120 volt or greater)
wiring. Raypak recommends that the total maximum length of each set of communication bus
cables not exceed 200 feet.
3. Route the FT_BUS wires from the front along the
top rails and out the back of the cabinets (as
shown in Fig. 14).
4. Connect the FT_BUS wires to the PIM by pressing
down on the slots with a small screwdriver and
then inserting the wires into the holes. See Fig.

1. On the boiler designated as the Master, connect
the system pump wiring to the terminal block at the
rear of the unit. Connect to terminals 10, 11, and
12 (See Fig. 19). The output is rated for pilot duty
only (2A maximum).
2. Connect the boiler pump wires to the terminal
block at the rear of their unit. Connect to terminals
4, 5, and 6 (See Fig. 19).
3. Connect the system supply sensor to terminals 3
and 4 on the J2 connector located on the Master
PIM (See Fig. 16).
4. Connect the Outdoor sensor (if used) to terminals
5 and 6 on the J2 connector located on the Master
PIM (See Fig. 16).
5. Connect the Enable/Disable wiring to terminals 9
and 10 on the J1 connector located on the Master
PIM (See Fig. 16). This connection must be provided through dry contacts closure.
NOTE: This dry contacts closure can come from a
room thermostat or a remote relay. No power of any
kind should be applied to either of these terminals.

Alarm Connection
An alarm bell or light may be connected to the alarm
ontacts on the boiler PIM. The Alarm Contacts are
c
3A rated dry contacts on a normally-open relay that
lose during fault or lockout conditions, and the maxi-
c
mum voltage across the contacts is 30 VAC or 30
VDC. Connections are made at J1 pins 1 and 2.
In a cascade system, the alarm output of the master
boiler will be active if either the master boiler or follower(s) have a lockout condition. The alarm output
of the follower boilers will only energize if a lockout
condition occurs on that specific boiler.
Venting
CAUTION: Proper installation of flue venting is
critical for the safe and efficient operation of the
boiler.
General
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.
NOTE: For additional information on appliance
categorization, see the ANSI Z21.13 Standard and
the NFGC (U.S.), or B149 (Canada), or applicable
provisions of local building codes.
WARNING: Contact the manufacturer of the vent
material if there is any question about the appliance
categorization and suitability of a vent material for
application on a Category IV vent system. Using
improper venting materials can result in personal
injury, death or property damage.
Use only PVC or CPVC vent material (in Canada,
ULC-S636 approved plastic material must be used) or
special gas vent pipes listed for use with Category IV
gas burning heaters, such as the AL29-4C stainless
steel vents offered by Heat Fab Inc. (800-772-0739),
Protech System, Inc. (800-766-3473), Z-Flex (800654-5600) or American Metal Product (800-423-4270).
Pipe joints must be positively sealed. Follow the vent
manufacturer’s installation instructions carefully.
Centrotherm™ polypropylene vent material is also
approved to be used on XFyre products. A vent
adapter (option D-33) must be used to ensure a proper seal of the flue and condensate. The vent adapter
kit supplied by Raypak includes a higher temperature
rated vent limit.
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.
Vent installation shall be in accordance with Part 7,
Venting of Equipment, of the NFGC, ANSI
Z223.1/NFPA 54, Section 7, Venting Systems and Air
Supply for Appliances, of the B149 Code, or applicable
provisions of the local building codes.
WARNING: Do not use foam core or cellular core
PVC/CPVC pipe for venting.
WARNING: DO NOT insulate PVC or CPVC vent
pipe.
CAUTION: When using stainless steel vent in a climate where freezing may occur, a double wall vent

The minimum flue pipe diameter for conventional venting is: 4 in. (102mm) for Models 300A, 400A and 500A,
and 6 in. (152mm) for Models 700A and 850A.
The connection from the appliance vent to the stack
must be as direct as possible and shall be the same diameter as the vent outlet. The horizontal breaching of
vent must have an upward slope of not less than 1/4
a
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.
NOTE: A vent adapter (field-supplied) may be required to connect the Category IV vent to the boiler.
Termination
he NFGC does not address sizing guidelines for the
T
common venting of multiple Category IV heaters. This
is covered in the NFGC under “Engineered Vent Systems”. Table O provides volumes of flue products at
ull fire for the calculation of appropriate vent and
f
extractor sizing 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 XFyre boiler is installed to replace an
existing boiler, the vent system MUST be verified to
be of the correct size and of Category IV AL29-4C
vent material, approved PVC/CPVC construction, or
Centrotherm™ polypropylene (in Canada, ULCS636 approved plastic materials must be used). If it
is NOT, it MUST be replaced.
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 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 hori-zontal
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). Vents supported only by
flashing and extending above the roof more than 5 ft
should be securely guyed or braced to withstand snow
and wind loads.
NOTE: When using PVC “T” vent as termination,
insert the round stainless mesh screens provided
with the unit into the tee ends.
NOTE:When using Centrotherm™
Polypropylene “T” vent termination, insert two
Centrotherm™ termination screens into the tee
ends.
NOTE: For extractor sizing, typical CO2levels are
8.5% for natural gas and 9.5% for propane gas and
flue temperatures of less than 220°F.
At the time of removal of an existing boiler, the following steps shall be followed with each appliance
remaining connected to the common venting system
placed in operation, while the other appliances remaining connected to the common venting system are not
in operation:
(a) Seal any unused openings in the common venting
system.
(b) Visually inspect the venting system for proper size
and horizontal pitch and make sure there is no
blockage or restriction, leakage, corrosion and
other deficiencies which could cause an unsafe
condition.
(c) Place in operation the appliance being inspected.
Follow the lighting instructions. Adjust thermostat
so appliance will operate continuously.
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 boilers.

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.
WARNING: Condensate is acidic and highly
corrosive.
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 boiler.
Installation
These installations utilize the heater-mounted blower
to draw combustion air and to vent the combustion
products to the outdoors. The combustion air intake
and the vent are installed horizontally through the wall
to the outdoors. Adequate ventilation air must be supplied to the equipment room in accordance with the
NFGC (U.S.) or B149 (Canada).
he total length of the horizontal through-the-wall
T
direct vent system should not exceed 200 equivalent ft
in length. If combined vent/intake run exceeds 200
equivalent ft, an appropriately sized variable-speed
xtractor must be used. Each elbow used is equal to
e
10 ft of straight pipe with a maximum of 4 elbows each
n the air intake and vent.
o
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

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 condensate drains
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.
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.
Only Raypak-approved vent caps may be used. The

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 boiler. Note that the
condensate is acidic and highly corrosive.
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 N. 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 N.
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 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.
Termination
The vent cap MUST be installed 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.
32
This type of installation can cause non-warrantable
problems with components and poor operation of the
oiler due to the recirculation of flue products. Multi-
b
ple 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).
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.
WARNING: No substitutions of flue pipe or vent
cap material are allowed. Such substitutions would
jeopardize the safety and health of inhabitants.
Condensate Management
The condensate must be drained properly to protect
the appliance and drainage system. The condensate
from the boiler is acidic. Its pH is between 3.2 and 4.5.
Raypak recommends neutralizing the condensate with
a Condensate Neutralizer kit (Z-12). The neutralizer kit
is connected to the drain system and contains lime-
stone (calcium carbonate) chips to neutralize the pH
level of the condensate. The kit may be added to avoid
ong-term damage to the drainage system and to meet
l
local code requirements.
Vent pipe condensate drains are also required for
nstallation of the XFyre. Follow vent manufacturer
i
instructions for location of condensate drains in the
vent. The vent condensate should also be routed
through a neutralization kit, as required by local code
requirements.
The neutralizer kit must be sized to the condensate
generated by the appliance and the vent.
CAUTION: In general, the condensate piping from
the appliance must have a downward slope of ¼” per
horizontal foot. Condensate drain traps must be
primed with water to prevent gas flue leaks.
Neutralizers should be checked at least once per
year, and the chips should be replenished as necessary. When replacing the chips, they should be no
smaller than ¾” to avoid blockage in the condensate
piping. Fig. 27 is a visual guide only. Follow the man-
ufacturer’s instructions for the installation of the
neutralization kit and condensate drains.

Care must be taken when locating the unit 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 available from the
manufacturer (sales order option D-11).
2.Periodically check venting system. The unit’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, walkway, 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 protected to prevent condensate from damaging
exterior finishes. Use a 300-series stainless steel
backing plate against brick or masonry surfaces.

Outdoor Reset Concept
The Temperature controller can change the System
Set Point based on outdoor temperature (Outdoor
Reset). The temperature controller varies the temperature of the circulating heating water in response to
changes in the outdoor temperature. The heating
water temperature is controlled through the modulation and/or sequencing of the cascade.
The Temperature controller can also control the system circulating pump with an adjustable Outdoor
Cutoff. When the outdoor temperature is above the
Outdoor Cutoff, the pump is turned off and no heating
water is circulated through the system. When the outdoor temperature drops below the Outdoor Cutoff, the
system pump relay is activated and the heating water
circulates through the system. The temperature of the
heating water is controlled by the Reset Ratio, Water
Offset, and changes with the outdoor temperature.
Reset Ratio/Outdoor Reset
When a building is being heated, heat escapes
through the walls, doors, and windows to the colder
outside air. The colder the outside temperature, the
more heat escapes. If you can input heat into the building at the same rate that it is lost out of the building,
then the building temperatures will remain constant.
The Reset Ratio is an adjustment that lets you achieve
this equilibrium between heat input and heat loss.
Select ON to start the function. The setting returns to default after the test is run.
(See Page 47 for details.)
Select ON to start the function. The setting will time out to OFF after 24 hours or can
be set to OFF again by the user. (See VERSA IC Applications Guide for details.)
Resets to factory settings. Press UP and DOWN for 1 second to show CLR and load
factory defaults to all settings. This will also clear all history.

Press UP and DOWN for 1 second to clear the error logs.
Table W: Toolbox Menu
The starting point for most systems is the 1.00
(OD):1.00 (SYS) (Outdoor Temperature: Heating
Water Temperature) ratio. This means that for every
degree the outdoor temperature drops, the temperature of the heating water will increase one degree.
With the VERSA, both ends of the slope are
adjustable. It is factory set at 70°F water temperature
(Boil START) at 70°F outdoor air (OUT START), and
180°F water temperature (Boil DESIGN) at 10°F outdoor air (OUT DESIGN).
Each building has different heat loss characteristics. A
very well insulated building will not lose much heat to
the outside air, and may need a Reset Ratio of 2.00
(OD):1.00 (SYS) (Outdoor: Water). This means the
outdoor temperature would have to drop 2 degrees to
increase the water temperature 1 degree. On the other
hand, a poorly insulated building may need a Reset
Ratio of 1.00 (OD):2.00 (SYS). This means that for
each degree the outdoor temperature dropped the
water temperature will increase 2 degrees. The
VERSA control Reset Ratio allows for full customization to match any buildings heat loss characteristics.
A heating curve that relies not only on Outdoor temperature but also on the type of radiation will improve heat
comfort. The user can fine tune these adjustments
based on the specific building need.
42
RESET RATIO
The control uses the four following settings to determine the reset ratio:
Boiler Start (Boil START)
T
he Boil START temperature is the theoretical boiler supply water temperature t hat the heating system requires when the outdoor air
temperature equals the OUT START temperature setting. The Boil START is typically set to the desired building temperature.
Outdoor Start (OUT START)
The OUT START temperature is the outdoor air temperature at which the control provides the Boil START water temperature to
the system. The OUT START is typically set to the desired building temperature.
Outdoor Design (OUT DESIGN)
The OUT DESIGN is the outdoor air temperature that is the typical coldest annual temperature where the building is located. This
t
emperature is used when completing heat loss calculations for the building.
Boiler Design (Boil DESIGN)
The Boil DESIGN temperature is the water temperature required to heat the boiler zones when the outdoor air is as cold as the
OUT DESIGN temperature.
Warm Weather Shut Down (WWSD)
When the outdoor air temperature rises above the WWSD setting, the
control turns on the WWSD segment in the display. When the control is in
Warm Weather Shut Down, the Dem 1 segment is displayed if there is a
heat demand. However, the control does not operate the boiler to satisfy
this demand. The control continues to respond to DHW demands.

Fig. 40: Reset Ratio
The controller uses the following four settings to calculate the Reset Ration (RR):
For example, when using the default values, the RR
is:
RR = (70 - 10) / (180 - 70) = 0.55
Therefore, the RR is 0.55:1 (Outdoor:Water).

WIRING
DIAGRAM
44
OTE: The wiring diagrams in this manual show all
N
standard options. Refer to the large wiring diagram
rovided with your boiler for options installed on your
p
specific unit(s).
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.
WHAT TO DO IF YOU SMELL GAS:
START-UP
WARNING: If you do not follow these instructions
exactly, a fire or explosion may result causing
property damage, personal injury or loss of life.
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)
CAUTION: An air vent should be installed at the
highest point in the system for proper operation. If
water piping is located higher than the boiler, it
should be relocated to the highest point in the
installed system.
Purge all air from system before lighting heater. This
can be normally accomplished by opening a downstream valve.
•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 close the gas supply shutoff valve outside the heater. 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
1. Verify the 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 to boiler.
Initial Start-up
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.

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
NOTE: While attaching manometers, any cap or
bleedle valves removed should be retained for
reinstallation later.
1. Turn off main gas shutoff valve.
2. On the 700A and 850A models, remove plugs “A”
and “B,” and install 1/8” NPT fittings to allow measurement of the gas pressure.
5. Attach a 12” scale manometer between the Swirler
and Gas valve on the air hose tee (see Fig. 42).
Pull the black cap to connect the manometer.
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
1. Turn power on.
. Turn on the boiler, approximately 10 seconds after
2
the blower starts, the igniter should start to spark
observable through the observation port located
(
at the front, bottom of the boiler) and the gas valve
will open. Look into the sight glass located at the
bottom of the front panel to check igniter operation.
Manifold Check
. Check manifold gas pressure at the manifold pres-
1
sure tap (connection “B” in Fig. 41). This pressure
hould read per the values in Table Y for natural
s
and propane gas.
2. If the pressure reading differs by more than ± 0.3
in. WC, STOP – Call the factory for directions
on what to do next!
3. The boiler ignites at 3000 RPM (as indicated on
the LCD display of the user interface).
4. This boiler is equipped with a standard three-try
ignition module, it will try for ignition up to three
times before going into lockout. If the boiler is
equipped with the optional single-try ignition module, it will try for ignition one time before going into
lockout.
5. Wait until the controller indicates 100% on the firing rate display screen. This may take several
minutes.
Blower Check
1. Note the high fire air intake pressure on the swirler
and compare to Table X. Excessively high pressures indicate an obstruction in the air intake or
undersized/too long air intake ducting. With a
clean air filter in place, record the intake air pressure setting on the start-up checklist. Replace the
filter when the intake air pressure increases
by –0.5 in. WC from the reading recorded on the
start-up checklist.
2. The desired combustion CO2 is between 8.5%
and 9.0% for natural gas, and between 9.5% and
10.0% for propane with CO less than 150 ppm.
Combustion should be checked at high and low
fire (Max. and Min. fan speed).

TROUBLESHOOTING
XFyre Error Codes
If any of the sensors detect an abnormal condition or
an internal component fails during the operation of the
XFyre, the display may show an error code. This code
may either be the result of a temporary condition in
which case the display will revert to its normal readout
when the condition is corrected, or it may be the result
of a condition that the controller has evaluated as not
safe to restart the unit. In this case, the unit control will
be locked out, requiring the maintenance person to
manually reset the control by pressing and releasing
the RESET key.
Heater Errors
8. Set thermostat to desired setting. The appliance
will operate. The igniter will spark after the prepurge time delay (15 seconds). The main valve
should open. System will try for ignition up to three
times (one time on optional single-try ignition module). If flame is not sensed, lockout will
commence.
9. If the appliance will not operate, follow the instructions “To Turn Off Gas To Appliance,” and call your
service technician or gas supplier.
10. If boiler fails to start, verify the following:
a. There are no loose connections or that the
service switch is off.
b. High temperature limit switch or manual-reset
high limit is not tripped.
When an error condition occurs, the controller will display an error code on the display module. These error
codes and several suggested corrective actions are
included in the XFyre Fault Text section on the following page.
Heater Faults
1. When a fault condition occurs, the controller will
flash a red light on the PIM and display the error
code on the user interface. The alarm output will
also be activated. Most fault conditions will also
cause the boiler pump to run in an attempt to cool
the unit.
2. Note the error code, either through the flash code
on the PIM and/or from the Toolbox menu on the
user interface, and reference the explanation of
the fault along with troubleshooting steps in the
XFyre fault text section.

WARNING:
The combustion chamber insulation in this product
ontains ceramic fiber material. Ceramic fibers can
c
be converted to cristobalite in very high temperature
applications. The International Agency for Research
on Cancer (IARC) has concluded that “Crystalline
silica inhaled in the form of quartz or cristobalite from
occupational sources is carcinogenic to humans
(Group1).”:
Combustion Chamber Coil Cleaning
Instructions
efore beginning this procedure, you must have on
B
hand the following items:
– a nylon, stainless steel or brass brush (not steel)
– “Rydlyme” (recommended for best results) or
“CLR”
– Gloves, eye protection
• Avoid breathing dust and contact with skin and
eyes.
• Use NIOSH certified dust respirator (N95).
This type of respirator is based on the OSHA
requirements for cristobalite at the time this
document was written. Other types of
respirators may be needed depending on the
job site conditions. Current NIOSH
recommendations can be found on the NIOSH
website at
http://www.cdc.gov/niosh/homepage.html.
NIOSH approved respirators, manufacturers,
and phone numbers are also listed on this
website.
• Wear long-sleeved, loose fitting clothing,
gloves, and eye protection.
• Apply enough water to the combustion chamber
lining to prevent dust.
• Wash potentially contaminated clothes separately
from other clothing. Rinse clothes washer
thoroughly.
1. Shut down the XFyre boiler by using the following
steps:
a. Close the gas valve, shut down the unit and
wait for the unit to be cool to the touch.
b. Disconnect the condensate piping from the out-
side connection, (not from the XFyre boiler
side), so the flow from condensate reservoir
can be observed.
c. Disconnect electrical connections from the gas
valve, spark electrode and flame rectification
probe and combustion blower.
d. Remove the (4) screws on the aluminum ¾”
NPT connector on the right side of the gas
valve.
e. Disconnect the wiring connected to the com-
bustion blower motor.
f. Remove the (6) 10mm nuts from the burner
plate assembly.
g. Remove the valve/blower/burner assembly
from the heat exchanger.
2. Using a spray bottle filled with the recommended
product “RYDLYME” or “CLR”, spray liberally on the
coils, making sure the solution penetrates and funnels down through the condensate system. If the
condensate system is blocked, let the chemical
penetrate for at least 15 minutes or until it drains.
NIOSH stated First Aid:
Eye: Irrigate immediately
Breathing: Fresh air.
3. Use the nylon, stainless steel or brass brush (do not
use steel) to scrub coils to remove any buildup, then
vacuum the debris from the coils. Be sure to fol-
low the precautions listed for working with
ceramic fibers.
4. Spray the coils with clear water, making sure to confine the spray to the area being cleaned (DO NOTget the back ceramic wall of the unit wet). Flush
the combustion chamber with fresh water until clear
water runs from the condensate drain. At this point,
the XFyre should be ready to be re-assembled.
a. Inspect gaskets.
b. Re-install the burner assembly.

APPENDIX
Inside Air Contamination
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 boiler 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.
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
•furniture refinishing areas and establishments
•new building construction
•remodeling areas
•open pit skimmers
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:
•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
Check for areas and products listed above before installing heater. If found:
•remove products permanently, OR
•install TruSeal direct vent.
