1.6 WATER PIPING

1.6.1 General Piping Issues

The SL boilers were designed to be easy to install in almost any application. Its unique
multi-port piping design allows connection from either side or both sides at once.
Figure 28: Overview of piping options
Primary/secondary piping, or the use of a hydraulic separator is recommended for
maximum flexibility in multi-load applications, but piping loads in parallel is also
encouraged in systems that only have two loads, or when loads are operating
simultaneously. The extremely low pressure drop through the SL Series heat exchanger
allows many options not available in other designs. In short – IBC has built a boiler that
will allow you to pipe the system the way you prefer, rather than try and dictate your piping
practices from boiler to radiator.
There are some important details to consider however, and this section of the Installation
and Operating Manual will walk you through them so you can enjoy a trouble-free
installation.
