  • Page 5: Installation Code Requirements

    FOREWORD APPROVALS These designs comply with requirements of Underwriters Laboratories and bear the U.L. label on the cabinet. All models are built to the standards of Section lV of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers. Boiler and Pressure Code, inspected and identified by this symbol. The ASME plate is located on the tank above the cleanout opening.

    IMPORTANT IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT A QUALIFIED SERVICE TECHNICIAN PERFORM THE INITIAL FIRING OF THE BOILER. AT THIS TIME THE USER SHOULD NOT HESITATE TO ASK THE TECHNICIAN ANY QUESTIONS WHICH THEY MAY HAVE IN REGARD TO THE OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE OF THE BOILER. BEFORE FILLING THE SYSTEM FOR OPERATION the hot water system should be internally cleaned and flushed to remove any contaminants which may have accumulated during installation.
  • Page 7 Calculating Amperage/Overcurrent Protection The boiler is factory wired for connection to three wire single-phase or three and four wire three-phase branch circuits. In addition, a ground conductor may be required. A diagram of the wiring is furnished with the boiler for the electrician’s use.
  • Page 8: Typical Wiring Diagrams

    Boiler Type Nameplate Markings Service Voltage Phase Delta (With Neutral) Delta Wye* Delta * Neutral lug not necessary and not furnished due to three wire wye connection. This means only three wires (no neutral) brought to boiler due to method of element connection. Elements operate at 277 volts. Voltage from a conductor to ground (electrical raceway and water pipes) is not measured.
  • Page 9: System Cleaning

    SYSTEM CLEANING The hot water system should be internally cleaned and flushed to remove contaminants which may have accumulated during installation. System cleaning provides chemical stability necessary for component life and system performance. Failure to clean the system may cause: 1.

  • Page 11 • Use a twisting, pulling action to remove elements scaled beyond the size of the tank opening. • Brush loose scale from elements. • Silicates, sulfates and aluminates must be removed by scraping or other mechanical means. Lime scale dissolvents will not remove these types of scale which are occasionally encountered.
  • Page 12 Some government agencies are requiring energy efficient standards for boilers. In the event regulations prohibit sale of a model of equivalent size and construction, A.O. Smith will provide a model which the regulations of your area, in which case the consumer will be charged the difference in price between the like replacement and the energy efficient model required.
