Appendix E – Installation and Quick Reference
Fuel/Gas Supply
•
Refer to Section
piping with too much pressure drop will negatively impact the boiler's performance.
•
Install a lock-up type gas regulator to supply an appropriate gas pressure as described below:
Natural Gas
Minimum Inlet Pressure = 3.5" – 4.0"
Nominal Inlet Pressure = 7.0" W.C.
Maximum Inlet Pressure = 14.0"
Patterson-Kelley recommends installing an individual lock-up type gas regulator in the gas supply
piping to each boiler. For installations where one master lock-up type gas pressure regulator will
service multiple boilers, Patterson-Kelley recommends contacting the local regulator representative
for application assistance specifying the appropriate lock-up type regulator and gas pipe sizing.
Electrical/Power Supply
•
Carefully inspect the boiler's nameplate labels which describe the power supply requirements.
•
Provide an appropriate power feed to the boiler with overcurrent protection:
Boiler Model
CM300
CM399
CM500
C750
C900
C1050
•
Prior to startup, carefully check all electrical connections for tightness as connections can come
lose during shipping.
Exhaust Venting

operating with slightly negative to slightly positive exhaust pressure. It is critical to ensure the
flue venting material is suitable for use with the boiler.
•
For Category II installations, ensure the flue venting system is designed to maintain a slightly
negative exhaust pressure between -0.01" W.C. and -0.05" W.C.
•
For Category IV sealed-combustion installations, ensure the flue venting system is designed to
maintain a slightly positive exhaust pressure between +0.01" W.C. and +0.22" W.C.
•
For Category IV exhaust-only installations, ensure the flue venting system is designed to
maintain a slightly positive exhaust pressure between +0.01" W.C. and +0.4" W.C.
