Prepare boiler — vent damper installation
These systems are used on gas-fired boilers with vent
dampers as shipped from factory. Boiler will not operate
without vent damper installed.
Only vent dampers listed in the Replacement parts list
on page 58 are certified for use with CGa boilers. Any
other vent damper installed could cause severe personal
injury or death.
Damper blade
Spark-ignited pilot systems—
facturer's instructions to install plug (shipped with
damper) in damper hole. For spark-ignited pilot
boilers only, install
hole.
Minimum clearances
Provide a minimum of 6" between the vent damper and
any combustible material. (Provide a minimum of 36 "
between jacket top and combustible ceiling.)
Do not
modify draft hood or vent damper, or make an-
other connection between draft hood and vent damper
or boiler except as noted below. This will void CSA
certification and will not be covered by Weil-McLain
warranty. Any changes will cause severe personal injury,
death or substantial property damage.

Installation
1. Install vent damper horizontally or vertically as
shown in vent damper manufacturer's instructions.
Vent damper must be installed so that it serves only
one boiler and so damper blade indicator is visible
Figure 8
to the user. See
2. Screws or rivets used to secure the vent damper to
the draft hood must not interfere with rotation of
the damper blade.
3. Install damper harness between damper actuator
and knockout in jacket top panel. Use strain relief
connectors and locknuts to secure both ends of
damper harness.
Keep wiring harness clear of all hot
surfaces.
4. Read and apply the harness plug warning label
(shown above) so that it is visible after installation.
5. Plug damper harness receptacle into damper harness
plug.
Bypassing (jumpering) vent damper
will cause flue products such as
carbon monoxide to escape into
the house. This will cause severe
personal injury or death.
After boiler has operated once, if ei-
ther end of harness is disconnected,
the system safety shutdown will oc-
cur. The boiler will not operate until
harness is reconnected.
Effikal or Field Controls damper
Damper hold open switch must be

for system to operate properly.
