Disclaimers And Local Codes - FULTON VSRT Series Installation, Operation And Maintenance Manual

INTRODUCTION

CAUTION
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.
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 adjusting components 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.
