Installation & Operation Manual

6 Hydronic piping (continued)

12.Boiler purge valve:

Field supplied. The boiler purge valve is used to remove entrapped air from the heat exchanger during start-up.

13.System temperature sensor:

Lochinvar supplies a system temperature sensor. The sensor is to be installed in the heating loop downstream from the boiler hot water piping and heating loop junction. The sensor should be located far enough downstream to sense system diluted water temperature.

14.Y-Strainer:

Field supplied. A Y-strainer or equivalent multipurpose strainer is recommended at the inlet of the heat exchanger to remove system particles from older hydronic systems and protect newer systems.

Circulator sizing

The Knight XL heat exchanger does have a pressure drop, which must be considered in your system design. Refer to the graphs in FIG’s 6-5 and 6-6 for pressure drop through the Knight XL heat exchanger.

Variable speed pump setup

Before operation, ensure the following:

-Pump is set for an input signal of 0 - 10VDC by the dip switches on the pump control

-Pump is set for external signal control (if applicable)

-Pump is set for linear output (if applicable)

-If pump does not come equipped with a 0 - 10 VDC input option, an optional module will be required from the vendor
