11)Perform a combustion test. On horizontally vented units, the sample probe may be inserted into the terminal. If this is not possible, and if no sample tap is present in the vent system, remove the flue temperature sensor and insert the analyzer probe in the sensor opening. On the BWC150 and BWC225 the flue temperature probe is located behind the lower vestibule door. For the boiler to operate, this sensor will need to be temporarily connected outside of the boiler. If it is removed, be sure to return the flue gas temperature sensor to its original position after combustion testing is complete.

Check CO2 (or O2) and CO at both high and low fire. The boiler may be temporarily locked into high or low fire for 15 minutes as follows:

a)To lock the boiler in high fire, simultaneously press and hold the “Mode” button and “+“ button until the display flashes “H”, indicating that the boiler has been driven to high fire. After this happens, allow the boiler to operate for approximately 5 minutes before taking combustion readings.

b)To lock the boiler in low fire, simultaneously press and hold the “Mode” button and “-“ button until the display flashes “L”, indicating that the boiler has been driven to low fire. After this happens, allow the boiler to operate for approximately 5 minutes before taking combustion readings.

At both high and low fire, CO readings should be less than 75 PPM. Typical CO2 readings are shown in Table 10.3.

WARNING

EACH BWC SERIES BOILER IS TESTED AT THE FACTORY AND ADJUSTMENTS TO THE AIR-FUEL MIXTURE ARE NORMALLY NOT NECESSARY. CONSULT A CROWN REPRESENTATIVE BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO MAKE ANY SUCH ADJUSTMENTS.

IMPROPER GAS VALVE OR MIXTURE ADJUSTMENTS COULD RESULT IN PROPERTY DAMAGE, PERSONAL INJURY, OR LOSS OF LIFE.

Normal modulation of the boiler should return 15 minutes after the boiler is locked in high or low fire.

BWC Series specifications

The Crown Boiler BWC Series is a modern choice for heating needs, renowned for its efficiency and robust design. This series offers a range of residential and light commercial heating applicabilities, ensuring both comfort and reliability for users.

One of the standout features of the BWC Series is its efficiency. Crown Boilers utilize advanced technologies to maximize energy output while minimizing fuel consumption. With an AFUE (Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency) rating often exceeding 90%, users can expect significant cost savings on their energy bills over time.

The BWC Series employs a high-quality, stainless steel heat exchanger, which not only enhances performance but also extends the lifespan of the boiler. This heat exchanger is designed to transfer heat efficiently, ensuring that the maximum amount of energy from the fuel is converted into usable heat. Additionally, the design helps to prevent corrosion and maintain system integrity over years of usage.

For technological advancements, the BWC Series incorporates a modulating gas valve which allows for precise control over the boiler's operation. This feature enables the system to adjust its output based on the heating demands of the home, resulting in improved energy efficiency and consistent comfort levels. Moreover, this modulating technology reduces the frequency of cycling, thereby prolonging the lifespan of the unit and minimizing wear and tear.

Another characteristic of the Crown Boiler BWC Series is its user-friendly interface. The boiler is equipped with a simple control panel that allows for easy monitoring and adjustment of settings. This accessibility is essential for users who want to manage their heating system without the need for extensive technical knowledge.

In terms of installation and maintenance, the BWC Series is designed with convenience in mind. Its compact footprint allows it to fit comfortably in a variety of spaces, making it an ideal choice for homes with limited installation areas. Additionally, Crown Boiler's commitment to high manufacturing standards ensures that the units require minimal maintenance, providing peace of mind to homeowners.

Overall, the Crown Boiler BWC Series is an excellent solution for those seeking efficient, reliable heating. Its combination of advanced technology, quality construction, and user-friendly design makes it an attractive option for any residential or light commercial application. Whether replacing an old system or installing a new one, the BWC Series delivers comfort and performance that can be depended upon.
