of the RTC cannot be used on multiple boiler installations.

d.Boiler Circulator – The boiler circulator selection will maintain a constant and minimum flow through the boiler during every heat demand.

In addition, the circulator will maintain a flow around the return sensor. The circulator must be properly selected, based on the design temperature between the boiler supply and boiler return. Appendix B lists the appropriate pumps for both 20 ºF and 40 ºF applications. A boiler circulator must be used with and without an RTC System for a primary/secondary piping arrangement.

WARNING

If the boiler circulator you have selected is greater than 1/3 HP, an isolation relay must be added when using the RTC.

If a 3-phase boiler circulator has been selected than a properly sized motor starter must be installed when using the RTC.

e.Diverting Valve – A diverting 3-way valve must be part of the boiler loop for boiler protection to be active when using the RTC. Only a Crown approved valve and actuator may be used for boiler protection. The valve sizing does change based on the designed boiler ∆T, since the flow rate and the pressure drop change for each. See Appendix B for proper valve selection.

f.Glycol Antifreeze Solutions - Many systems today use ethylene or propylene glycol antifreeze solutions as a measure for freeze protection, as well as a pump lubricator and corrosion inhibitor. The properties of the glycol mixture have an impact on valve and pump sizing. All glycol solutions have a lower specific heat than water. This means that the glycol solution cannot transfer heat as well as pure water, resulting in the need for higher flow rates. In addition, the viscosity of the glycol solution is usually higher than water, requiring a higher pump head for the same given flow. Consult factory for specific applications, pump selection and flow rate.

g.Nipple and Sensor - The 3 x 12 special nipple must be installed in the lower right return connection when looking at the rear section, when using the RTC. Insert the return sensor using pipe dope.

2.STEAM HEATING, consult I=B=R Installation and Piping Guide No. 200. For piping details, see Figure 34. Figure 35 shows a typical pumped return/ boiler feed unit arrangement. Figure 36 illustrates the required mounting elevations for McDonnell and Miller 150 and 63 float low water cut-offs.
