necessary to attach the water or steam piping and

 

 

controls.

 

 

 

NOTE: All jacket panel joints must be made so the

 

 

panels are metal to metal.The insulation on the edges

 

 

of the front, top and rear panels must be pushed

 

 

behind the side panel flanges before fastening the

 

 

panel together, Figure 74.

Top Jacket Panels

Slip the rear flange of one of the side panels between the rear panel and the jacket-mounting bracket, Figure 75.

Figure 75

Jacket Side Panel Installation

Fasten the side and rear panels together using the bottom three holes, Figure 76. Align the bottom screw hole with the hole in the jacket bracket and fasten them to the bracket. Attach the opposite side panel the same way.

If the removal of knockouts is required to accommodate any piping they should be removed at this time. Place the rear top jacket panel on top of the boiler, Figure 78. On 13 through 21 section boilers two top jacket panels are required. These panels should be screwed to the top splice panel before being placed on the boiler, Figure 79. Make sure that the splice panel flanges are between the edge of the top panel(s) and the insulation, Figure 80. Attach the edges of the top jacket panel(s) so they are metal to metal with the top flanges on both side panels.
