CHECK OUT PROCEDURE AND ADJUSTMENT

F.After adjusting input rate, turn boiler off, remove manometer or pressure gauge, reinstall ⅛” plug on gas valve. Turn boiler on.

G.Boiler should typically operate between:

•8.5% -10.0% CO2 on Natural Gas

•9.5% -11.0% CO2 on Propane Gas

Under all conditions CO level should not exceed 100 ppm.

9.Restore all gas appliances that may have been shut off (while measuring boiler input rate) to normal operating conditions.

I.Remove regulator cover screw on top of gas valve, and insert an appropriate screwdriver into adjustment screw.

II.Turn adjustment screw clockwise to increase input rate, or counter clockwise to decrease input rate.

III.Replace cover screw, or cover hole temporarily with your finger to check new manifold pressure setting. Do not set manifold pressure lower than 2.0 inches w.c. or higher than 3.0 inches w.c. when adjusting input rate.

IV.Measure new input rate (cover screw must be installed). Repeat steps I.-IV until the input rate is within +/-2% of the nameplate input rating.

V.If the actual input rate can not be set to within 2% of the correct input rating by adjusting manifold pressure, a change in gas orifice size is required. Consult the boiler manufacturer for information on correct orifice sizing. The specific gravity (G) and the higher heating value (HHV) of the local natural gas must be obtained from the local gas utility in order to determine the proper orifice size.
