  • Page 7: Preparations Before Assembly

    UGM-AK-03/04 GAS FIRED BOILERS WITH PAGE ATMOSPHERIC BURNERS 3. PREPARATIONS BEFORE ASSEMBLY 3.1. FLUE DESIGN AND CHIMNEY INSTALLATION Boilers must be connected to an independent chimney, using the shortest flue canal possible, starting from flue outlet of draught diverter where there is a flue ring for easy connection, which should be insulated by mineral wool or similar material.
  • Page 8: Gas Supply

    UGM-AK-03/04 GAS FIRED BOILERS WITH PAGE ATMOSPHERIC BURNERS 3.2. GAS SUPPLY The installation must be in accordance with relevant standards and mandatory regulasitons. The local gas supply authority should always be contacted at the design state to ensure an adequate supply is available. An existing service pipe must not be used without prior consultation with the local gas supply authority and the supply must be made through a suitable meter.
  • Page 9: Boiler Room Arrangement

    UGM-AK-03/04 GAS FIRED BOILERS WITH PAGE ATMOSPHERIC BURNERS 3.4. BOILER ROOM ARRANGEMENT The installation must be arranged in accordance with Mandatory Regulations and Codes of Practice. The following sketch shows the recommended minimum dimensions of clearance around the bolier for servicing and maintenance L285 # As boilers are equipped with a water distribution pipe which is installed from inlet connection through boiler lower waterways, there should be enouh space left as much as relevant boiler width, between boiler inlet and coinciding...
  • Page 10 UGM-AK-03/04 GAS FIRED BOILERS WITH PAGE ATMOSPHERIC BURNERS 3.5. WATER CIRCULATION SYSTEM The system design must provide water flow rates commensurate with boiler output and the temperature difference between flow and return should not exceed 20 C, or 25 C at most. Water levels should be checked regularly and any leakages corrected in order to keep system water make-up to a minimum, because excessive make-up will lead to salt deposits forming in the boiler waterways Causing local overheating and damage to the boiler sections.
  • Page 12: Safety Of Water Circulation System

    UGM-AK-03/04 GAS FIRED BOILERS WITH PAGE ATMOSPHERIC BURNERS 3.6. SAFETY OF WATER CIRCULATION SYSTEM The system can be built either open vented or pressurized.
