Read before proceeding

Read before proceeding:

Read all instructions before installing. Fail ure to follow all instructions in proper order can cause severe personal injury, death or substantial property damage.

Do not use petroleum-based cleaning or sealing components in boiler system. Severe damage to system components can result, causing substantial property damage.

Propane boilers only

— Your propane supplier mixes an odorant with the propane to make its presence detectable. In some instances, the odorant can fade and the gas may no longer have an odor.

■ Propane gas can accumulate at floor level. Smell near the floor for the gas odorant or any unusual odor. If you suspect a leak, do not attempt to light the burner.

■ Use caution when attempting to light a propane burner (or pilot burner). This should be done by a qualified service technician, particularly if flame out ages (or pilot outages) are common.

■ Periodically check the odorant level of your gas.

■ Inspect boiler and system at least yearly to make sure all gas piping is leak-tight.

■ Consult your propane supplier regard ing installation of a gas leak detector. There are some products on the market intended for this purpose. Your sup plier may be able to suggest an appro priate device.

Assembling the block

Sections are top heavy. Unbolted sections may fall if not supported, resulting in severe personal injury or death.

Figure 6 Sealing rope installation

Prepare the back section first

1. Place ¼" x 3" steel plates on the floor or foundation, spaced 51 inches apart, as shown in Figure 1, page 4. 2. Apply ⁄ 8 " continuous bead of sealing rope adhesive in sealing rope grooves around section perimeter and around flueways — see Figure 6.

Do not get any adhesive on the machined port surfaces

.

Place sealing rope in grooves

1. Place ⁄ 8 " coated and uncoated sealing rope in the rope grooves as shown in Figure 6. 2. See WARNING below — place coated rope and uncoated rope as described.

3. Around curves, grasp rope at 1" intervals and push together.

Do not stretch the rope

.

The boiler is supplied with

TWO

types of section sealing rope — uncoated and coated with a narrow uncoated strip.

Use the uncoated rope only on the flueways as shown in Figure 6.

Use the coated rope around the perimeter and around the upper nipple port as shown in Figure 6. The uncoated side of the rope must be pressed into the adhesive as shown in order to obtain a proper adhesion.

DO NOT pre-cut rope for sections. Cut rope as each section is placed. A gas-tight seal must be maintained to prevent possibility of flue gas leakage and carbon monoxide emissions, causing severe personal injury or death.

Do not use petroleum-based cleaning or sealing com pounds in boiler system. Severe damage to system com ponents can result, causing substantial property damage.

Install nipple port sealing rings

1. Remove any grit from port machined surfaces with clean rag.

2. Place 9" and 6" sealing rings in appropriate port openings as shown in Figure 6, page 8. If sealing ring slips out of groove, stretch ring gently for several seconds, then reposition in groove. 3. Apply a continuous bead of silicone sealant no larger than 1

16 " around entire outside edge of the

outer

machined surface of the port. See Fig ure 7.

Do not apply silicone sealant on, next to or under sealing ring

.

Assembling the block

(continued)

Silicone sealant applied as specified above prevents unburned oil vapors from coming in contact with sealing ring. Vapor con tact can damage rings, resulting in severe damage to boiler and substantial property damage.

Figure 7 Applying silicone sealant around outsides of sealing rings (shown on 94 intermediate section upper nipple port)

Raise the rear section upright

1. Hoist the back section upright. 2. Move rear section into position on the steel rails. The section should be 4 inches from the end of the founda tion (if used) as shown in Figure 1, page 4.

3. Block under the flueway outlet to hold the rear section upright in plumb position. The back section must be plumb before in stalling other sections to ensure the block will assemble correctly.

4. The blocking under the flueway can be removed later, after several intermediate sections have been attached and the assembly is stable.

5. Install intermediate sections and front section as de scribed on the following.

Install intermediate sections

1. Remove and discard 3

8 " diameter shipping tie rods.

2. Remove grit from port machined surfaces with clean rag. Also remove grit from tapped holes in all sections.

Do not use petroleum-based cleaning or sealing compounds in boiler system. Severe damage to system components can result, causing substantial property damage.

3. Position intermediate section so aligning lugs fit into sockets of next section. See Figure 8.

4. Draw sections together until metal-to-metal contact is made around machined port openings (see Figure 8): a. Oil threads on (4) other end.

washer/nut end.

5 ⁄ 8 " x 11" draw rods. Install washer and nut on end to be tightened. Use nut only on b. Uniformly draw sections together, starting at Important — Leave an equal amount of thread on each end of the draw rod. This is needed to allow securing the jacket support brackets in place. The draw rods must not extend past the face of the front or back section, or they will interfere with the jacket.

c. Draw rods should be torqued to a range of 100 to 120 ft-lbs. Do not back off draw rods.

d. Metal-to-metal contact will be achieved around port openings. See Figure 8. If gap occurs, it should be no greater than .032". Check with feeler gauge.

Assembling the block

(continued)

e. If, for any reason, the gap around machined port open ing exceeds .032", check for rope extending from rope grooves, dirt on port openings or sockets, or misaligned lugs. If corrections are made and gap still exists, contact your Weil-McLain distributor or sales office before con tinuing installation.

After erecting first intermediate section, check both sections for plumb. Repeat the check as each additional section is installed. Failure to plumb sec tions can cause misaligned piping and breeching, possibly resulting in property damage.

5. Repeat steps 1-5 for all remaining sections. NOTE — use 5 ⁄ 8 " x 10" draw rods between intermediates. When used, install TI (tankless intermediate) and SI (supply intermediate) sections in the positions shown in Figure 9, page 10.

6. Check each section for proper sealing rope position before proceeding to next section.

Failure to position sealing rope properly can cause boiler to not seal gas-tight. Gas tight seal prevents possible flue gas leakage and carbon monoxide emissions, resulting in severe personal injury or death.

7. Install remaining intermediate sections and front section using the same procedure.

If using tankless heater (TI) sections

• Install tankless heaters and gaskets or heater cover plates and gaskets.

• Use " x 3 ⁄ 4 "studs, washers and nuts.

Prepare boiler and test:

1. See Figure 10 (water boilers) or Figure 11 (steam boilers) for tapping locations. 2. Install water pressure gauge —

for test only

. Be sure gauge can handle test pressure — see step 8 for required test pres sure. Gauge range should be at least 1.5 times the test pres sure. Install the pressure test gauge in the tapping specified in Figure 10 (water boilers) or Figure 11 (steam boilers).

3. Install an air vent in an upper tapping.

4. On front section: Install 3" close nipples and caps in washout tappings.

5. On rear section: Install drain valve (furnished by installer) in one of the washout tappings. (Verify drain valve size per Figure 15, page 15.) Install 2" x 2 1 ⁄ 2 " nipple and cap in the other washout tapping.

6. Plug or use blind flanges on remaining tappings.

Do not pressure test with any control installed. Damage to control can occur due to overpressure.

7. Fill the boiler with water. Vent all air. 8. Pressure test at least 10 minutes at a pressure not less than the following: a. b.

Steam

boiler:

Between 45 and 55 psig

.

Water

boiler:

1½ times maximum allowable working pressure

(MAWP) stamped on the boiler nameplate, located on boiler jacket front panel.

Do not exceed above test pressures by more than 10 psig.

Do not leave boiler unattended. Cold water fill could expand and cause excessive pressure, result ing in severe personal injury, death or substantial property damage.

9. Check for maintained gauge pressure and leaks. Repair if found.

Weil-McLain 94 Series 3 Water and steam boilers — for Gas, Light Oil, & Gas/Light Oil-Fired Burners

Connect water boiler piping

General water piping information

1. System water supply and return piping should be installed and piping connections attached to boiler before erecting jacket or installing controls.

2. Do not pipe in through supply and out through return. This creates reverse water flow through boiler that must not be used.

3. When installing in a system in which return water temperature can drop below 140°F, apply the by-pass piping with by-pass pump as shown in Figure 16, page 15.

4. When three-way valves are used for temperature modulation, install slow-opening valves to minimize the potential of boiler thermal shock.

Install piping

Install piping as shown in Figure 12, page 14 and Figure 16, page 15 (if applicable) for single boilers. For multiple boilers, see Fig ure 17, page 15.

Improperly piped systems or undersized piping can contribute to erratic boiler operation and possible boiler or system damage.

1. Connect supply and return piping: a. Size according to tables below.

• For (less than 20°F temperature rise) through boiler, see Figure 13.

• For , size piping per Figure 15, page 15, using 20°F temperature rise through boiler.

Flow at higher rates than shown in the tables in this manual for given pipe sizes can damage the boiler, caus ing substantial property damage.

b. Locate circulator in supply piping.

c. For return piping, use full diameter pipe for 10 times that diameter before making any reduction. For example, a 4-inch return should not be reduced any closer to boiler return tap ping than 40 inches.

d. Install system blow-off (drain) valve in lowest part of return piping close to boiler. ASME minimum size requirements are given in Figure 15, page 15.

2. Install expansion tank: a.

Closed type

– connect to 1 1 ⁄ 4 " tapping T1, T2 or X2 (see Figure 10, page 12). Use 1" NPT piping. Any horizontal pip ing must pitch up toward tank at least 1 inch per each 5 feet of piping.

b.

Diaphragm type

– Refer to tank manufacturer's literature for location. Install automatic air vent in 1 1 ⁄ 4 " tapping T1, T2 or X2 (see Figure 10, page 12).

c. Connect cold water fill to expansion tank piping. Figure 12 shows typical piping when using a closed type tank. Connect to the same location as the expansion tank connects to the system when using a diaphragm type tank.

d. Also shown are recommended valves and water meter, when used. Water meter will detect added make-up water, indicating leaks in system.

Piping multiple boilers

1. See Figure 16. (Expansion tanks, relief valves and other accessories are required, but omitted from the illustration for simplicity.) 2. The boiler piping circuits are referred to as the secondary circuits in the following.

3. The legend for Figure 16 and boiler pump sizing recommenda tions follow:

A

Size boiler pump GPM based on the following:

a. Temp rise = High limit temp – Return water temp b. GPM = Boiler Gross Output, Btuh Temperature rise x 500

c. Calculate only secondary (boiler) piping circuit resistance. Al low for head loss through the boiler equal to three 90 degree elbows of secondary pipe size.

d. Operate each boiler and its pump with a Weil-McLain boiler control panel.

e. Size secondary (boiler) circuit piping using the flow rate ranges given in Figure 15.

B

Primary pump GPM and head calculation should not include secondary boiler circuits. Primary pump can operate continuously during heating season.

C

Connection to primary circuit — Space 12" maximum or as close as practical.

D

Check valve.

E

Hand valve.

Part No. 550-110-275/1018

Figure 16 By-pass piping for return water less than 140°F By-pass circulator sizing:

1. Size system circulator as required. Determine GPM and head requirements.

2. Provide a by-pass circulator for EACH boiler. The flow rate for each by-pass circulator will be:

Flow = ¼ x (System circulator GPM) ÷ (# of boilers)

3. All circulators must run at the same time.

4. Example: For a 1,000,000 Btuh single boiler, with system temperature drop of 20°F: • System GPM = 1,000,000 ÷ 20 ÷ 500 = 100 GPM • By-pass GPM = ¼ x 100 GPM = 25 GPM • Determine by-pass circuit head loss for pipe size and fittings used.

5. In most applications, a standard booster pump should be adequate.

Connect steam boiler piping

General steam piping information:

1. Hartford loop piping arrangement and wet return are required for steam boilers. Use the Hartford loop for both pumped-return and gravity-return systems.

2. Maintain 24-inch minimum from waterline to bottom of header (86 3 ⁄ 4 " from bottom of section).

3. When using condensate receiver, feed pump must be energized by boiler-mounted pump controller.

4. Install piping: a. Install piping as shown on page 17 through page 18 for single • boilers. See page 19 for additional requirements when piping multiple boilers.

b. Return pipe sizing.

Pumped return — Size return piping by pump.

• Gravity return — Size gravity return same as Hartford loop equalizer pipe size.

c. Drain valve — Install system drain valve in lowest part of • return piping close to boiler. See Figure 15, page 15, for sizing.

d. Cold water fill piping — Connect cold water fill piping as shown in Figure 18. Also shown are recommended valves and water meter, if used. Water meter will detect added makeup water, indicating leaks in system.

e. Condensate return piping: Satisfactory operation of any steam heating system depends on adequate return of condensate to maintain steady water level.

• Avoid adding excessive amounts of raw make-up water.

• • Where condensate return is not adequate, a low water cutoff with pump control, condensate receiver, and condensate boiler feed pump should be installed.

See Figure 19 for piping and Figure 20 for sizing.

Steam boiler piping guidelines

Minimum height of header above water line must be 24 inches

The boiler header must always be at least

24 inches

above the water line, as shown in all steam boiler pip ing diagrams. Installing the pipe lower will result in increased water carryover to the system, resulting in potential serious damage to system components and oxygen corrosion due to excess make-up water.

Hartford loop piping for all steam boilers

1. You must install the system supply pipe between the equalizer elbow and the last boiler riser pipe connection to the header. This assists in separating water from the steam as it turns upward into the steam supply pipe.

2. Locate the top of the Hartford loop return nipple at least 4 inches below the water line, as shown.

Boiler manual: • Installation • Start-Up • Maintenance • Parts

Connect breeching and venting systems

Seal the venting system gas-tight and connect the breech ing with welded seams and joints to prevent leakage of combustion products into the boiler room. This is most important for forced draft vent systems. Conventional flue pipe should not be used as it could leak flue gases and carbon monoxide emissions through seams and joints, resulting in severe personal injury or death.

General venting information

1. Model 94 boilers operate with positive overfire pressure. Adjust damper assembly (see Figure 44, page 35) during burner start-up to achieve 0.1" W.C. positive pressure at damper sample hole.

Construct metal breeching:

1. 894-2194 boilers — construct "stub" to attach breeching: a. Use steel breeching-16 ga. or heavier, 20" nominal diameter, minimum 6-inch length (so damper can open).

b. Unbolt the breeching counter flange from flue collar flange.

c. Insert or butt the breeching stub against counter flange so stub is square to flange. Stub must not extend past the face of the flange.

d. Weld stub to flange gas-tight. Use caution when welding to avoid warping the flange due to excessive heat accumulation.

Flue collar flange Counter flange (8) ½" x 1½" machine bolts, nuts and washers Sealing rope, 3 ⁄ 8 " diameter Gas-tight weld to breeching adapter pipe 20-inch diameter breeching pipe, min. 6" long (by installer) e. Make sure the sealing rope is intact on the flue collar flange.

f. Attach the flange/stub assembly to the flue collar using ½" x 1½" machine bolts and washers provided. The connection must be gas-tight.

2. 2294-2594 boilers — attach factory-supplied breeching adapter: a. The boiler is supplied with a flanged breeching adapter 22-inch diameter x 12 inches long. b. Make sure the sealing rope is intact on the flue collar flange.

c. Attach the flange/stub assembly to the flue collar using ½" x 1½" machine bolts and washers provided. The connection must be gas-tight.

3. See Figure 39 for minimum breeching diameter.

4. Select material type and thickness in compliance with local codes. 5. Refer to ASHRAE Guide for chimney and breeching calculations and construction and lining.

Long horizontal breechings, excessive number of tees and elbows or other obstructions restricting combustion gas flow can result in possibility of condensation, flue gas leakage and carbon monoxide emissions, causing severe personal injury or death.

Boiler is supplied with a counter flange that must be welded to a 20-inch diameter x 6-inch minimum length adapter. The breeching can then be reduced or increased to the size listed above.

Boiler is supplied with a flanged adapter, 22-inch diameter, for connection to 22-inch diameter breeching. Breeching size can be increased after the adapter if required for the application.

Note 3 Note 4

Forced draft — Boiler, breeching and stub vent operate at positive pressure. Entire system must be gas-tight to prevent leaks. Stub vent height must be limited to prevent negative draft with 3-foot minimum stub vent height above roof, 15-foot minimum overall height. See Figure 41 and Figure 42.

Balanced draft — Boiler operates with positive pressure overfire. Chimney may provide excess draft which may require a barometric draft control installed and set to provide minimum draft to maintain 0.1" positive pressure at flue collar. Minimum chimney height above roof is 3 feet. Minimum overall height is 20 feet. For other vent heights, use ASHRAE Guide for sizing. See Figure 40 and Figure 42.

Electrical shock hazard

connect electrical supplies to the boiler before servicing.

— Dis-

Explosion hazard

fuel supply to the boiler while servic ing.

— Shut off the

Burn hazard

— Allow the boiler to cool before touching boiler surfaces or contacting boiler water.

The boiler area must be kept clear of combustible materials, gasoline or other flammable vapor or liquids.

Do not block the flow of air to the burner. Incomplete combustion, flue gas spillage and carbon monoxide emissions can occur.

Label all wires before disconnecting for service. Wiring errors can cause improper operation.

Verify proper operation of the boiler and system after servicing.

The boiler contains ceramic fiber and fiberglass materials. Follow the instructions on page 36.

Failure to comply with the above could result in severe personal in jury, death or substantial property damage.

Water chemistry and make-up

Do not use petroleum-based clean ing or sealing compounds in boiler system. Severe damage to system components can result, causing substantial property damage.

Leaks in the boiler and piping sys tem must be repaired at once. If a leak is detected around a gasket (i.e. tankless heater, supply outlet, etc.) tighten evenly and only enough to stop the leak Over-tightening can ruin a gasket. The constant addition of makeup water may damage the boiler.

If serious leaks occur, stop the burner. Then gradually reduce boiler pressure or temperature. Do not attempt to make repairs while the boiler is hot or under pressure.

If the boiler or system are experienc ing large amounts of makeup water, extreme foaming or priming, scale in the boiler, or internal corrosion or pitting, contact a company special izing in boiler water chemistry. DO NOT try "homemade cures" or boiler "patent medicines" on the market under various trade names, as serious damage to the boiler, personnel, and property may result.

Maintenance and troubleshooting

(continued)

Cleaning boiler heating surfaces and flueways

Do not brush or vacuum the firebox or combus tion chamber area of those boilers using fibrous combustion chamber material.

Do not use stick-type thermal bombs in this boiler. 1. Soot is an effective insulator and prevents flue gases from heating the boiler water as efficiently as possible. The fre quency of cleaning will depend upon the fuel used, the burner adjustments, boiler temperature, draft conditions, and other job factors.

2. Remove top or side jacket panel(s).

3. Remove the flueway opening cover(s).

4. Cover the burner and controls.

5. Using a wire flue brush, thoroughly brush the flueways at all angles.

6. Remove any soot or scale from the horizontal and/or vertical flueways, the boiler firebox.

7. Remove access panel and enter the boiler to clean combustion chamber with special flue brushes provided. 8. Clean the base of the chimney using a vacuum cleaner or brush. 9. Replace the flueway opening cover(s), access panels and jacket panel(s), making sure the original gas-tight seal is maintained.

10. If additional cleaning is required: a. Replace access panels and start the boiler following all instructions in this manual.

b. Heat the boiler water to 180°F. Then turn the boiler off, disconnect electrical power and fuel supplies.

c. Remove the flueway opening covers. d. Use a garden sprayer or connect a spray nozzle to a garden hose and spray the sooted flueways with a fine mist of water.

e. The soot will become loosened and fall to the floor of the firebox and around the horizontal flueways. f. Remove the loosened soot.

Seasonal boiler shutdown

DO NOT DRAIN BOILER during periods of shut down unless exposed to freezing temperatures.

If boiler is shut down during severe winter weather, have the heating system inspected periodically or thoroughly drain the heating and plumbing system following the instructions in this manual for long term shutdown.

1. Turn off all power supplies to the boiler and its components.

2. Close all fuel valves.

3. Cover the burner to protect it from dust and dampness.

4. Steam boilers — open boiler blowdown valve and flush till clear while under steam pressure. 5. Water boilers — open the boiler drain cock to remove im purities. It may be necessary to drain several gallons of water until all traces of sediment are gone. Refill the boiler to the proper water level or pressure. Boiler water does not have to be crystal clear for proper operation, but should be free of sludge or sediment.

Long-term boiler shutdown

1. When the boiler and system must be drained for long-term shutdown, perform the following procedures.

2. Turn off all power supplies to the boiler and its components.

3. Close all fuel valves.

4. Cover the burner to protect it from dust and dampness.

5. Clean all carbon, rust, and other deposits from the fire-side of the boiler heating surfaces in order to protect the boiler from the corrosive action of combustion deposits. Follow the procedure in this manual under " Cleaning boiler heat ing surfaces." 6. Apply a thin coating of oil or grease to heating surfaces if the boiler is to remain out of service for an extended time.

7. Drain the boiler and system as necessary.

To inspect water side of boiler

1. If the water side of the boiler must be cleaned or inspected, open the blowdown valve and drain the boiler.

2. Hose the inside of the boiler with high pressure water to remove sludge and sediment. Then flush. 3. Dry the boiler water side thoroughly, or refill with fresh water and heat to release dissolved gases, following the procedures in this manual for filling the system. Repeated draining and filling of the boiler and/ or the heating system can lead to the same conse quences as adding too much makeup water. This is worst where the makeup water is hard.

Cleaning float-type low water cut-offs

1. Accumulated sediment in the low water cut-off should be flushed out through a blow-off valve provided for this pur pose at least once each month of heating system operation.

Cleaning the gauge glass

1. Close the lower gauge glass cock and carefully open the pet cock below the glass to blow water and sediment out of the gauge glass by steam pressure. 2. Then slowly open the lower gauge glass cock, allowing a small amount of water to flush out through the open petcock. 3. Close the petcock and fully open the lower gauge cock. 4. The water level should immediately rise to its proper level.

Weil-McLain 94 Series 3 Water and steam boilers — for Gas, Light Oil, & Gas/Light Oil-Fired Burners

Maintenance and troubleshooting

(continued)

If gauge glass breaks, close off both gauge cocks and loosen the glass retaining nuts to remove gauge glass. Replace broken gauge glass with new gauge glass made of heavy-walled Pyrex. DO NOT USE THIN GLASS TUBING.

Checking the relief valve

1. Manually open the safety valve once each year by pulling the valve lever or handle and allowing a small amount of steam to escape. 2. Be sure that the valve reseals properly and does not leak. 3. If the relief valve sticks or appears to be clogged, replace immediately.

Automatic air vents

1. With the system filled with water, loosen the air vent cap slowly so that particles of dirt or scale are not deposited on the valve seat by the escaping air. 2. Should dirt or scale lodge on the valve seat, causing it to leak, remove the cap and press the inner stem with a screwdriver or other tool to permit water to flush the valve seat clean. 3. Release the stem quickly and replace the cap. 4. For normal operation and venting, unscrew the cap at least two turns.

Troubleshooting — steam boiler priming or foaming

1. Foaming or priming in a steam boiler can cause large quanti ties of water to pass into the steam mains, resulting in violent fluctuations of water level in the gauge glass. 2. This trouble may be caused by dirt, oil, or other impurities in the boiler water, too high a boiler water level, a high overload on the boiler (i.e., the sudden release of boiler steam pressure into the mains by action of fast operating valves), or the ad dition of too much boiler water treatment. 3. With serious foaming or priming, stop the burner and de crease boiler load. 4. Then alternately blowdown and slowly feed fresh water several times. 5. If trouble persists, it may be necessary to skim the boiler one or more times.

Troubleshooting —relief valve opens frequently or weeps

1. Expansion tank may be water-logged in it closed type (air head type) 2. Bladder or diaphragm-type expansion tank may have punc tured membrane or may have incorrect charge pressure — follow tank manufacturer's instruction to troubleshoot and set charge pressure.
