FULTON VSRT Series Installation And Operation Manual page 9

The stack arrangement and draft conditions should
be in accordance with the information in this manual
for proper performance of the equipment.
A competent rigger experienced in handling heavy
equipment should handle rigging your equipment
into position.
Competent personnel in accordance with all
applicable local codes should carry out the
installation of the Fulton equipment. "Factory-Trained
Personnel" refers to someone who has attended a
Fulton Service School specifically for the equipment
covered in this manual.
All state and jurisdictional codes beyond the scope
of the applicable ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel
Codes, for its corresponding classification, should be
followed in all cases. Jurisdictional authorities must
be consulted prior to installation.
The equipment must be installed on a non-
combustible surface.
! CAUTION
Some soap used for leak testing is corrosive to certain
types of metals. Clean all piping thoroughly after
completing the leak check.
A temperature exceeding 120°F (49°C)* in the boiler
room may cause premature failure of electrical
components. Provisions should be made to maintain
an ambient temperature of 120°F (49°C)* or less (the
panel box interior should not exceed 125°F [52°C]*).
*Pumps, Programmable Logic Controllers (PLC)
or ModSync panels may require lower ambient
temperatures or additional cooling.
Particulate matter or chemicals (example:
perchlorethylene, chlorine, or halogenated
compounds) in the combustion air supply to the boiler
will cause damage or failure to the burner and is not
covered under warranty. Airborne materials from
construction and maintenance activities constitute a
high-risk situation.

SAFETY & WARNINGS - 1
An exhaust fan may draw products of combustion
into the work environment creating a possible hazard
to personnel.
Never leave an opened manual air vent unattended.
In the event an opened vent is left unattended, water
or fluid damage could occur. The exception to this
warning is a feed water deaerator manual vent
cracked open may be left unattended.
Do not use this equipment if any part has been
under water (or subjected to heavy rains/water if
the equipment does not have National Electrical
Manufacturers Association (NEMA) 4 wiring, controls
and instrumentation). Immediately call a qualified
service technician to inspect the equipment and to
replace any part of the control system and/or gas
control(s) which have been under water.
For all systems containing boilers or unfired steam
generators, the water chemistry in the boiler must be
kept within the limits outlined in this manual. Failure
to do so may cause premature pressure vessel failure
and poor steam quality and will void the warranty.
! CAUTION
Do not use the equipment as support for ducted
air piping. Ducted piping must be supported
independently of the equipment.
Do not run the pump dry. Irreparable damage to the
seal can result. Prime the pump in accordance with
the manufacturer's instructions. Never operate the
pump with a closed discharge valve.
After adjustingcomponents in the fuel or air
delivery system combustion/emissions must be
verified throughout the firing range. If emissions
are improper, adjust combustion following the
appropriate procedure in this manual.
Should you suspect that the boilers flue passage ways
have become blocked, contact your authorized Fulton
representative.
