Dénitions des dangers

Improper installation, adjustment, alteration, service or maintenance can cause property damage, personal injury

or loss of life. Failure to follow all instructions in the proper order can cause personal injury or death. Read and

understand all instructions, including all those contained in component manufacturers manuals which are provided

with the appliance before installing, starting-up, operating, maintaining or servicing this appliance. Keep this manual

and literature in legible condition and posted near appliance for reference by owner and service technician.

This boiler requires regular maintenance and service to operate safely. Follow the instructions contained in this manual.

Installation, maintenance, and service must be performed only by an experienced, skilled and

knowledgeable installer or service agency.

All heating systems should be designed by competent contractors and only persons knowledgeable in the layout

and installation of hydronic heating systems should attempt installation of any boiler.

It is the responsibility of the installing contractor to see that all controls are correctly installed and are operating

properly when the installation is completed.

Installation is not complete unless a pressure relief valve is installed into the specied tapping on the supply manifold

located on top and at rear of appliance—See Section III, Paragraph 33, ‘e’ of this manual for details.

This boiler is NOT suitable for installation on combustible ooring.

Do not tamper with or alter the boiler or controls. Retain your contractor or a competent serviceman to assure that

the unit is properly adjusted and maintained.

Clean boiler at least once a year—preferably at the start of the heating season to remove soot and scale. The inside

of the combustion chamber should also be cleaned and inspected at the same time.

Have Burner and Controls checked at least once a year or as may be necessitated. Do not operate unit with jumpered

or absent controls or safety devices. Do not operate unit if any control, switch, component, or device has been

subject to water.

Return water cannot be lower than 135°F for prolonged periods of time. Operation under these conditions will result

in sustained condensing within the combustion chamber and potentially reduce boiler longevity.

In addition, the return water cannot be introduced into the boiler if it is more than 40°F less than the idle boiler tem-

perature. Continued operation under these conditions may result in premature boiler failure through thermal shock.

Example: A boiler that has been idle for some time since the last heat demand cycle may have it’s boiler water

temperature reduced to 150°F. The return temperature from the next zone activation cannot be less than 110°F.

DO NOT store or use gasoline or other ammable vapors or liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance.

If you smell gas or fuel oil vapors, do not try to operate the burner/boiler system. Do not touch any electrical switch

or use any phone in the building. Immediately call the gas or oil supplier from a remotely located phone.

Burner/boiler systems produce steam or hot water in a pressurized vessel by mixing extremely ammable gaseous,

liquid or solid fuels with air to produce combustion and very hot products of combustion. Explosions, res severe

personal injury, death and/or property damage will result from improper, careless or inadequate installation, operation

or maintenance of fuel-burning and boiler equipment.

NE PAS entreposer ni utiliser d’essence ou d’autres vapeurs ou liquides inammables à proximité de cet appareil

ou de tout autre appareil.

Si vous sentez des vapeurs de gaz ou de mazout, n’essayez pas de faire fonctionner le système brûleur / chaudière.

Ne touchez à aucun interrupteur électrique et n’utilisez aucun téléphone dans le bâtiment. Appelez immédiatement

le fournisseur de gaz ou de pétrole à partir d’un téléphone situé à distance.

Les systèmes de brûleurs / chaudières produisent de la vapeur ou de l’eau chaude dans un récipient sous pression

en mélangeant des combustibles gazeux, liquides ou solides extrêmement inammables avec de l’air pour produire

une combustion et des produits de combustion très chauds. Les explosions, les incendies, des blessures graves, la

mort et / ou des dommages matériels résulteront d’une installation, d’une utilisation ou d’un entretien inappropriés,

imprudents ou inadéquats des équipements de chauage et de chaudière.

Une installation, un réglage, une modication, un service ou un entretien incorrects peuvent entraîner des dommages

matériels, des blessures corporelles ou la mort. Le non-respect de toutes les instructions dans le bon ordre peut

entraîner des blessures ou la mort. Lisez et comprenez toutes les instructions, y compris toutes celles contenues

dans les manuels des fabricants de composants qui sont fournis avec l’appareil avant d’installer, de démarrer, de

qualié pour vous assurer que l’unité est correctement ajustée et entretenue.

Nettoyez la chaudière au moins une fois par an, de préférence au début de la saison de chauage pour éliminer la

suie et le tartre. L’intérieur de la chambre de combustion doit également être nettoyé et inspecté en même temps.

Faites vérier le brûleur et les commandes au moins une fois par an ou au besoin. Ne pas faire fonctionner l’unité

avec des commandes ou des dispositifs de sécurité pontés ou absents. N’utilisez pas l’appareil si une commande,

un interrupteur, un composant ou un appareil a été exposé à l’eau.

L’eau de retour ne peut pas être inférieure à 135 ° F pendant des périodes prolongées. Le fonctionnement dans ces

conditions entraînera une condensation soutenue dans la chambre de combustion et réduira potentiellement la

longévité de la chaudière.

De plus, l’eau de retour ne peut pas être introduite dans la chaudière si elle est inférieure de plus de 40 ° F à

la température de ralenti de la chaudière. Un fonctionnement continu dans ces conditions peut entraîner une

défaillance prématurée de la chaudière par choc thermique.

Exemple: Une chaudière qui a été inactive pendant un certain temps depuis le dernier cycle de demande de chaleur

peut voir sa température de l’eau de chaudière réduite à 150 ° F. La température de retour de l’activation de zone

suivante ne peut pas être inférieure à 110 ° F.

Appliance materials of construction, products of combustion and the fuel contain alumina, silica, heavy metals,

carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides, aldehydes and/or other toxic or harmful substances which can cause death or

All V9A Series cast iron boilers are designed, built, marked and tested in accordance with the ASME Boiler and Pressure

Vessel Code, Section IV, Heating Boilers. An ASME Data Label is factory applied to each V9A jacket, which indicates the

boiler Maximum Allowable Working Pressure (MAWP). Each cast iron section is permanently marked with the MAWP

listed on the boiler’s ASME Data Label. Those values for the V9A are as follows:

MAWP, Steam - 15 psi

MAWP, Water - 80 psi

It is common and acceptable practice to install these boilers in lower pressure systems, below the boiler MAWP. Therefore,

Burnham oers pressure relief valves set at or below the MAWP of the boiler. See Table 1 for available pressure relief

valve set pressures.

Toutes les chaudières en fonte de la série V9A sont conçues, fabriquées, marquées et testées conformément au code

ASME sur les chaudières et les appareils sous pression, section IV, Chaudières de chauage. Une étiquette de données

ASME est appliquée en usine à chaque enveloppe V9A, ce qui indique la pression de service maximale admissible

(MAWP) de la chaudière. Chaque section en fonte est marquée de façon permanente avec le MAWP gurant sur l’étiquette

de données ASME de la chaudière. Ces valeurs pour le V9A sont les suivantes:

MAWP, vapeur - 15 psi

MAWP, eau - 80 psi

Il est courant et acceptable d’installer ces chaudières dans des systèmes à basse pression, sous le MAWP de la chaudière.

Par conséquent, Burnham propose des soupapes de surpression réglées à ou en dessous du MAWP de la chaudière. Voir

le tableau 1 pour les pressions de réglage des soupapes de surpression disponibles.

inspected and packed. Our responsibility ceases

upon delivery of crated boiler to the carrier in good

condition.

2. ANY CLAIMS for damage or shortage in shipment

must be led immediately against the carrier by the

consignee. No claims for variances from, or short-

age in orders, will be allowed by the manufacturer

unless presented within sixty (60) days after the

receipt of goods.

B. LOCATE THE UNIT

1. RECOMMENDED SERVICE CLEARANCE

— Locate the unit in the boiler room so as to

provide ease of venting and adequate clearance

for maintenance, serviceability, and installation of

piping. Refer to Figure 1 for boiler dimensional

data.

FRONT — Provide 43″ service clearance for

removal, maintenance, and servicing of burner and

controls.

REAR — Provide a minimum clearance from the

boiler jacket for access to ame observation port,

rear ue damper and vent piping, relief valve, and

boiler return piping. See Table III.

LEFT SIDE — Provide a minimum clearance from

the boiler jacket of 26″ for cleaning of ueways and

installation and removal of tankless heater(s).

RIGHT SIDE — Provide a minimum clearance from

the boiler jacket of 12″.

TOP — Provide a minimum clearance from the

boiler jacket of 24″.

Recommended clearance for service may be reduced

to minimum clearance to combustible material.

However, increased service and maintenance diculty

will result.

Le dégagement recommandé pour l’entretien peut

être réduit à un dégagement minimum par rapport aux

matériaux combustibles. Cependant, il en résultera

une augmentation des dicultés de service et de

all appliances in the enclosure.

b. If horizontal ducts are used, each opening shall

have a free area of not less than 1 sq. inch

per 2,000 Btuh (70 sq. inch per gph.) (11 cm2

per kw) of total input of all appliances in the

enclosure.

NOTES:

1. Listed clearances comply with American

National Standard ANSI/NFPA 31, Installation of

Oil Burning Equipment.

2. V9A Series boilers can be installed in rooms with

clearances from combustible material as listed

above. Listed clearances cannot be reduced for

alcove or closet installations.

3. For reduced clearances to combustible material,

protection must be provided as described in the

above ANSI/NFPA 31 Standard.

D. CHIMNEY OR VENT

When a V9A gas red boiler is connected to a

venting system that is designed so that it will

operate under a negative pressure, the use of Type

C, B, or other manufactured vent systems designed

for negative pressure is acceptable.

When a V9A oil red or combination gas/oil red

boiler is connected to a venting system that is

designed so that it will operate under a negative

pressure, the use of Type C, L or other manufac-

tured vent systems designed for negative pressure

is acceptable.

Unlined masonry chimneys are not acceptable.

Lined masonry chimneys are acceptable with the

appropriate vent connectors using materials de-

scribed above.

When a V9A gas red boiler is connected to a

venting system that is designed so that it will

operate under a positive pressure, manufactured

vent systems, designed and approved for positive

pressure application per UL1738, must be used

(for example, Van-Packer model CS, Protech Model

FasNSeal / FasNSeal W2, Heatfab Saf-T-Vent or

equivalent).

When a V9A oil fired or combination gas/oil

fired boiler is connected to a venting system

that is designed so that it will operate

under a positive pressure, manufactured

vent systems, designed and approved for positive

pressure application, must be used (for example,

Selkirk Metalbestos Model PS / IPS, Van-Packer

Model ES or equivalent).

Lorsqu’une chaudière au gaz V9A est connectée à

un système de ventilation conçu pour fonctionner

sous une pression négative, l’utilisation de

systèmes de ventilation de type C, B ou d’autres

systèmes de ventilation fabriqués conçus pour une

pression négative est acceptable.

Lorsqu’une chaudière au mazout ou combinée au

gaz / mazout V9A est connectée à un système de

ventilation conçu de manière à fonctionner sous

une pression négative, l’utilisation de systèmes

de ventilation de type C, L ou d’autres systèmes

de ventilation fabriqués conçus pour une pression

négative est acceptable.

Les cheminées en maçonnerie non revêtues ne

sont pas acceptables. Les cheminées en maçon-

nerie doublées sont acceptables avec les raccords

d’évacuation appropriés utilisant les matériaux

décrits ci-dessus.

Lorsqu’une chaudière au gaz V9A est connectée à

un système de ventilation conçu pour fonctionner

sous une pression positive, des systèmes de

ventilation fabriqués, conçus et approuvés pour

une application de pression positive selon UL1738,

doivent être utilisés (par exemple, modèle Van-

Packer CS, modèle Protech FasNSeal / FasNSeal

W2, Heatfab Saf-T-Vent ou équivalent).

Lorsqu’une chaudière au mazout ou combinée

au gaz / oul V9A est connectée à un système de

ventilation qui est conçu pour qu’il fonctionne sous

pression positive, fabriqué

des systèmes de ventilation, conçus et approuvés

pour une application à pression positive, doivent

être utilisés (par exemple, Selkirk Metalbestos

modèle PS / IPS, Van-Packer modèle ES ou équiva-

lent).

Figure 3a: Typical Arrangement for Stub Vent

The V9A Series boiler is designed for forced draft ring

and may be used with a conventional natural draft stack

(15′ minimum height) or a stub vent, sometimes called

a diesel stack (see Figure 3a). See Table I for the proper

vent outlet size. For low silhouette vent terminations,

see Figure 3b. Draft controls are not normally required,

although they may be used on installations where

a natural draft stack is used or on multiple boiler

installations with a common stack. The boiler is

provided with a breeching damper, which should be

adjusted to maintain a positive pressure of 0.1″ W.C. in

the vent connector box during burner high re operation

(see breeching pressure sensing port in Figure 1).

If the venting system is designed for positive or forced

draft venting, the boiler, vent connector and stack will

operate under positive pressure. Gas tight vent systems

designed for pressure systems must be used to prevent

ue by-product leakage. The vent height is usually

limited to prevent negative draft, typically three (3) feet

above the roof line (see Figure 3a). The damper shall be

adjusted to maintain a positive pressure of 0.1″ W.C. in

the vent connector box during burner high re operation

(see breeching pressure sensing port in Figure 1).

If the venting system is designed for negative pressure

(natural draft), the boiler still operates with positive

pressure in the chamber and up to the xed damper on

the ue collar. However, if the venting system is larger

than what is required, the stack will provide a surplus

draft (or negative pressure) that may require the use of

a barometric damper to maintain the positive 0.1″ W.C.

pressure at the ue outlet. Multiple forced draft boiler

stacks should always be designed as negative to ensure

the products of combustion do not exit a boiler that is

not ring.

Venting instructions are guidelines only. Consult

a venting expert on the design of a specic

vent system for your application. The ASHRAE

Venting Guide and The National Fuel Gas Code,

NFPA 54 should be considered in all venting

systems.

Conventional vent material may not be suitable

for the application. Flue gases can leak carbon

monoxide from the joints on these materials and

can result in severe personal injury or death.

Installations having long horizontal runs or an

excessive amount of tees or elbows will restrict

the ow of combustion gases and can result

in condensation, ue gas leakage of carbon

monoxide, resulting in severe personal injury or

death.

Les instructions de ventilation ne sont que

des lignes directrices. Consultez un expert en

ventilation sur la conception d’un système de

ventilation spécique à votre application. Le

guide de ventilation ASHRAE et le National Fuel

Gas Code, NFPA 54 doivent être pris en compte

dans tous les systèmes de ventilation.

Le matériau de ventilation conventionnel peut

ne pas convenir à l’application. Les gaz de

combustion peuvent fuir du monoxyde de

carbone des joints de ces matériaux et entraîner

des blessures graves ou la mort.

Les installations ayant de longues distances

horizontales ou une quantité excessive de

tés ou de coudes restreindront le débit des

gaz de combustion et peuvent entraîner de la

condensation, des fuites de gaz de combustion

de monoxyde de carbone, entraînant des

blessures graves ou la mort.

FAULTY BOILER BURNER OPERATION

1. If improper vent is suspected, remove pipe at breeching and operate boiler. This will determine if excessive down draft,

blocked or restricted ue, etc. is causing the problem.

2. If using type shown in A above, be sure cap is raised suciently above main pipe to allow ue gases to vent unimpeded.

SECTION II - CAST IRON BLOCK ASSEMBLY

A. FACTORY ASSEMBLED SECTIONS — If the

boiler was ordered with factory assembled sections,

the assembly should be set in the proper location as

outlined in Section I. Lifting arrangement and weights

are given in Figure 4.

1. Proceed to Paragraph C of this Section,

“HYDROSTATIC TEST.”

Boiler sections must be drawn-up on perfectly level

surface or improper assembly may result.

Les sections de la chaudière doivent être étirées sur

une surface parfaitement plane ou un assemblage

incorrect peut en résulter.

B. FIELD ASSEMBLED SECTIONS — If the boiler

was ordered to be eld assembled, follow the assembly

procedure outlined on the following pages.

1. ASSEMBLY OF SECTIONS (MANUAL

DRAW-UP USING SHORT DRAW UP RODS)

These sections are designed to be drawn together,

one section at a time, using the 9¾″ long draw-up

rods (provided) and ordinary hand tools.

Tools required:

(1) ¾″ Drive Ratchet

(1) 1-1/16″ Socket

(1) 1-1/16″ Combination or Open End Wrench

(1) Container of grease, oil or other appropriate

lubricant.

Figure 5: Positioning of Back Section

Figure 4: Lifting Instruction

Never assemble more than one section at a time.

Ne jamais assembler plus d’une section à la fois.

a. Place the rear section in its approximate nal

position, as outlined in Section I, and support it

with a suitable prop and wedges. See Figure 5.

b. On size V903A only — Open target wall carton,

apply Silastic to back of target wall and secure

target wall to rear section.

c. Clean the groove in the ground joint along the

edge of the section with the wire brush.

d. Open the Boiler Assembly Carton(s) and remove

the bottle of adhesive. Using the dauber supplied

in the bottle, apply the adhesive to the groove.

Be sure to use enough adhesive to suciently

coat the entire groove surface. If so desired,

a multi-purpose spray adhesive (supplied by

others) may be used instead. HOWEVER,

GREAT CARE MUST BE TAKEN TO

ENSURE THAT THE ADHESIVE DOES

NOT COME IN CONTACT WITH THE

NIPPLES OR NIPPLE PORTS.

e. While the adhesive is becoming tacky, clean

nipples and nipple ports thoroughly with a

de-greasing solvent. Use the Loctite #592

provided to lubricate the nipples and nipple

ports. Apply the lubricant to the nipples and

nipple ports, then use a brush to disperse it

evenly around the nipples and the nipple ports.

Use approximately 25 ml of Loctite #592 per

ueway [(1) 7″ and (2) 3″ nipples and their (6)

corresponding nipple ports].

Use proper equipment and foot protection to handle

heavy objets.

Utilisez un équipement et une protection des pieds

appropriés pour manipuler des objets lourds.

f. Drive nipples squarely into section using

block of wood and hammer, or preferably, an

aluminum head hammer. (Burnham oers a

Polyethylene Block for setting the nipples, part

number 8052601). Place block over entire nipple

edge and hit the wood with the hammer.

Nipples must be driven in evenly and to the proper

depth to assure tight joints. Most nipple leaks are

caused by tilted or cocked nipples.

DO NOT use steel/iron head hammer to drive

nipples without using a wood block. Nipple

damage may result.

Les mamelons doivent être enfoncés

uniformément et à la bonne profondeur pour

assurer des joints serrés. La plupart des fuites

de mamelons sont causées par des mamelons

inclinés ou armés.

NE PAS utiliser de marteau à tête en acier / fer

pour enfoncer les mamelons sans utiliser de cale

en bois. Des dommages au mamelon peuvent en

résulter.

Figure 6: Setting of Nipples

h. Remove a 96″ length of berglass rope from

the assembly carton. Starting with the area

around the upper 7″ nipple port, rmly press

the rope into the groove, so that the adhesive

holds it in place. (If more than 25 minutes have

passed since the adhesive was applied, it may

be necessary to reapply.) Continue to ax the

rope to the groove in this fashion around the

perimeter of the section. Make sure that the rope

does not droop or hang outside of the groove.

When the end of the groove is reached, cut o

the excess rope. Push the length of excess rope

into the groove at the top corner of the section

face (opposite of the 7″ nipple port.) Cut o and

discard any remaining rope after groove is lled.

See Figure 7.

The sections must be assembled according to the

arrangement shown to ensure proper operation, proper

assembly of canopy, jacket and alignment of piping and

tankless heaters with jacket knockouts. Start with the

back section and work towards the front.

Les sections doivent être assemblées selon

la disposition illustrée pour assurer un bon

fonctionnement, un assemblage adéquat de l’auvent,

de la chemise et l’alignement de la tuyauterie et des

appareils de chauage sans réservoir avec des

débouchures de chemise. Commencez par la partie

arrière et travaillez vers l’avant.

Figure 7: Axing the Fiberglass Rope

g. A special nipple setting gauge is provided for the

nipples. Gauge nipple at 90° angles to insure that

it is driven to the proper depth into the nipple

opening (nipple port). Cut-out in gauge must rest

on nipple, with legs of gauge touching nished

face of section, when nipple is properly driven.

See Figure 6.

Figure 8: V9A Section Arrangement

i. From the “Section Arrangement” chart, select

the next section according to the “Identication

Code” at the top of the chart. See Figure 8. Use

a wire brush to clean the groove in the face

of the next section. Then, using a cartridge of

RTV 6500 or RTV 736 sealant in a caulking gun,

ll the groove in this section with silastic sealant.

Touch-up any missed spots before draw-up.

Touch-up after draw-up has no value.

Sections must be drawn-up tight immediately after

properly applying sealant for best results. Although

sections may be joined within two (2) hours of

applying sealant, humidity and temperature aect

cure time. If a “thick skin” has been formed on the

sealant bead, remove and re-apply sealant.

Sealant must be properly applied to ALL

boiler joints. Failure to properly seal the boiler

joints will result in combustion gas leaks through

the joint. DO NOT operate boiler with combustion

gas leaks.

Les sections doivent être étirées de manière

étanche immédiatement après avoir correctement

appliqué le scellant pour de meilleurs résultats.

Bien que les sections puissent être jointes dans les

deux (2) heures suivant l’application du scellant,

l’humidité et la température aectent le temps de

durcissement. Si une «peau épaisse» s’est formée

sur le cordon de scellant, retirez et appliquez de

nouveau le scellant.

joints de chaudière. Le fait de ne pas sceller

correctement les joints de la chaudière entraînera

des fuites de gaz de combustion à travers le joint.

NE PAS faire fonctionner la chaudière avec des

fuites de gaz de combustion.

j. Clean and lubricate nipple ports on next section

to be assembled and place on nipples previously

installed in rear section. To facilitate assembly,

it is advisable to enter the upper nipple rst in

its port. Then enter the lower nipples in their

respective ports. If necessary, place a lifting bar

(crowbar) under the center of the section and lift

the nipple port onto the upper nipple.

k. Drive sections in place with a heavy block of

wood, striking blows as squarely as possible over

nipple port.

NOTES: FOR BOILERS LESS TANKLESS HEATER, REPLACE THE "CT" SECTIONS WITH "C" SECTIONS. TANKLESS

SECTIONS: IF BOILER CAN TAKE MULTIPLE TANKLESS COILS, BUT NOT ALL TANKLESS COILS WILL

BE USED, INSTALL COILS TOWARDS BACK OF BOILER, FOLLOWING SECTION ARRANGEMENT CHART.

l. The large draw-up rod lugs with dual holes

are cast in the four (4) corners of each casting.

STARTING WITH THE UPPER HOLES,

install four (4) 5/8″ x 9¾″ long draw-up rods

along with washers and nuts (see Figure 9).

To avoid damage to the draw-up rod threads while

drawing up sections, apply oil or other lubricant to tie rod

threads while assembling sections to prevent stripping

of threads on rod and to make assembling easier.

Pour éviter d’endommager les letages de la tige de

traction lors de l’étirage des sections, appliquez de l’huile

ou un autre lubriant sur les letages de la tige de traction

lors de l’assemblage des sections pour éviter le dénudage

des letages sur la tige et pour faciliter l’assemblage.

m. DRAW UP SECTION SLOWLY AND

EVENLY using an alternating pattern starting

with the upper right lug (closest to the 7″ port)

and proceeding to the lower left , lower right

and nishing with upper left lug. When you

start, grind surfaces between adjoining sections

should be approximately 3/8″ apart. Use three

(3) or four (4) passes at tightening the four (4)

draw-up rods a little at a time so that sections

are pulled up evenly. During the last pass,

pay close attention to the silastic sealant as

it squeezes when the sections come in close

contact. The silastic sealant should continue

to squeeze out wafer thin until the sections are

connected metal to metal. If the silastic has

stopped squeezing out from the connection and

the sections still do not appear to be drawn metal

to metal, use a feeler gauge to measure any gaps

at the locations identied in Figure 9. (Unless

specied otherwise, gaps should be measured at

these locations on both sides of the sections.) A

maximum gap of .025″ is acceptable. Measure

gaps at the outer edge of the connection only,

making sure not to puncture the gasket created

by the silastic and rope.

When tightening the draw-up nuts, DO NOT EXCEED

150 FT-LB OF TORQUE. If the maximum torque limit has

been reached and a gap greater than .025″ still exists

between the sections, consult the regional oce.

Lors du serrage des écrous de serrage, NE PAS

DÉPASSER 150 PI-LB DE COUPLE. Si la limite de

couple maximum a été atteinte et qu’un écart supérieur

à 0,025 ″ existe toujours entre les sections, consultez

le bureau régional.

KEEP NIPPLES ALIGNED WITH NIPPLE

PORTS. If necessary, tap edge of nipples lightly

with a blunt tool or rod to keep nipples from

cocking while sections are being drawn-up. DO

NOT DRAW UP SECTION WHEN NIPPLES

ARE COCKED. If the torque required becomes

excessive, periodically place a heavy block of

wood over each nipple port and strike as squarely

as possible with several blows to relieve tension

on the draw-up rods.

n. CONTINUE ASSEMBLING SECTIONS IN

THEIR RESPECTIVE ORDER alternating

draw-up rods from the upper to lower set of

holes in draw-up lugs (see Figure 10). Be certain

that all sections are drawn up iron-to-iron at all

three (3) nipple ports.

BE SURE TO APPLY THE SEALANT to

the groove in the ground joints between

adjacent sections as the boiler operates with a

positive pressure in the rebox and products of

combustion will escape between sections unless

the sections are properly sealed. The sealant

should be applied before each section is placed

on the assembly.

o. If a joint springs apart it must be redrawn tight

within four (4) hours of the time of application

of Silastic to that joint.

p. EXCESS LENGTH OF DRAW-UP RODS must

not extend beyond front and rear section to

ensure proper t of jacket, adjust accordingly.

Figure 9: Connection Inspection Locations and

Manual Draw-Up Tie Rod Pattern

Do not substitute other material for draw-up rods.
