SEE HEAT EXCHANGER PRESSURE DROP CHART TO DETERMINE PUMP HEAD REQUIREMENTS.

Use this chart to select the proper circulator for your BOILERMATE®.

If a steel hydropneumatic tank is in place, AMTROL® recommends replacing it with a properly sized EXTROL® or Radiant EXTROL® expansion tank. Otherwise, significant heat transfer problems can occur by causing air to be trapped in the heat exchanger. If the boiler system has an EXTROL® or Radiant EXTROL® expansion tank and the boiler temperatures are being changed, resize the EXTROL® or Radiant EXTROL® expansion tank.
