WATER PIPING

 

Always follow good piping practices. Observe minimum 1"

 

clearance to combustibles around all uninsulated hot water

 

pipes or when openings around pipes are not protected by

 

non-combustible materials.

 

On a hot water boiler installed above radiation level, the boil-

 

er must be provided with a low water cutoff device at the time

 

of installation by the installer. (see Figure 15 for piping

 

arrangement)

 

1. Supply and Return

 

For tapping sizes see dimensions on page 2. Shut-off

 

valves are recommended.

 

2. Circulating Systems

 

Victory II boilers are equipped with a water circulating

 

pump mounted to the return water connection on the

 

boiler. This pump location is appropriate for most installa-

 

tions. It may be desired and proper to locate this pump to

 

the alternate pump location shown in Figure 15, especially

 

when applied to larger systems using high-head pumps.

 

When the pump is removed there is a 11/2" FPT tapping

Figure 11b.

that the return pipe may be attached to.

3. Air Control System

Diaphragm type compression tank is used to control sys- tem pressure. It must be installed at the boiler or between boiler and supply main pump(s).

The VHS-30 boasts a compact design, making it suitable for installations in limited spaces while still providing robust heating capabilities. It offers an output of 30,000 BTU, making it efficient for smaller buildings or homes. Conversely, the VHS-180 is designed for larger applications, delivering a powerful 180,000 BTU output, ensuring that even the most demanding spaces remain comfortably heated.

One of the standout features of both models is their ability to operate with natural gas or propane, providing flexibility based on regional gas availability and user preference. This adaptability is further enhanced by their advanced combustion technology, which allows for an efficient and clean burn. Both models incorporate a pressurized hot water boiler design which enhances their energy efficiency by maximizing heat transfer from the burner to the water.

In terms of construction, both the VHS-30 and VHS-180 are built with high-quality components designed for longevity. They feature a durable cast iron heat exchanger, which not only improves the lifespan of the unit but also contributes to its high thermal efficiency. The units are also equipped with state-of-the-art controls that allow users to monitor and adjust settings easily, ensuring optimal performance and energy savings.

Safety is another key aspect of the VHS series. Both models are equipped with numerous safety features, including a high limit temperature control, automatic restart, and a safety valve, ensuring peace of mind for homeowners and building operators alike.

Moreover, the VHS series also emphasizes ease of maintenance. The design allows for straightforward access to all critical components, making servicing and routine maintenance more manageable for technicians. As a result, this leads to reduced downtime and longer service intervals.

In conclusion, the Slant/Fin VHS-30 and VHS-180 are exemplary choices for anyone in need of reliable and efficient hot water heating solutions. Their combination of advanced technology, quality construction, and user-friendly features make them a top choice for both residential and light commercial heating applications.
