Figure 11 Typical piping for multiple Ultra boilers, using Weil-McLain Easy-Fit®Manifolds and heat exchanger

Use isolation heat exchanger for:

1. Large volume systems with high mineral content in water.

2. Systems exposed to untreated quan- tities of makeup water.

3. Old systems severely contaminated with scale and rust buildup inside piping and heat distribution units.

4. Process applications.

5. Commercial service water applica- tions.

6. High water pressure applications, requiring pressure relief setting in heating system more than 30 PSIG (tall buildings). See notes below.

Notes:

1.Contact heat exchanger manufacturer for heat exchanger shellside and tubeside pip- ing and circulator requirements. Tubeside

flow and temperatures must meet heating system requirements.

2.Contact heat exchanger manufacturer for sizing heat exchanger.

3.Heat exchanger shellside circuit requires its own expansion tank as shown.

4.Heating system circuit requires its own ex- pansion tank, as shown, plus its own re- lief valve set to protect heating system and heat exchanger piping and components.

5.When individual isolation valves are used, individual boiler and level controls may be required.
