SECTION 2
EXE-IOM-230112
Install pH Neutralizer
The pH Neutralizer is used to bring the pH level of the boiler's
condensate to a more neutral level. It is not a replacement or
alternative for the Condensate Drain Trap. See Figure 11.
Adhere to the following for pH Kit installation:
1. Use PVC, CPVC, stainless steel, or silicone tube and
fittings to connect condensate trap to the neutralizer.

Questions? Please Contact Your Local Manufacturer's Representative
NOTES:
1. A PH NEUTRALIZER IS USED TO RAISE THE PH OF THE ACIDIC FLUE GAS
CONDENSATE PRIOR TO DISPOSAL INTO THE FLOOR DRAIN.
2. A PH NEUTRALIZER IS NOT REQUIRED FOR BOILER OPERATION, BUT
MAY BE REQUIRED BY THE LOCAL AUTHORITY HAVING JURIDCTION
(AHJ). CONSULT YOUR LOCAL AHJ FOR REQUIREMENTS.
2. FLUE GAS CONDENSATE DRAIN LINES MUST BE PITCHED DOWN
MINIMUM 1-INCH (25 MM) PER 12-FEET (3.7 M) TOWARDS THE DRAIN.
3. FLUE GAS CONDENSATE DRAIN LINES MUST BE PVC, CPVC, STAINLESS
STEEL, OR SILICONE TUBE. DO NOT USE COPPER OR MILD STEELS,
THESE MATERIALS ARE NOT SUITABLE.
4. THE PH NEUTRALIZER MUST BE LOWER THAN THE OUTLET OF THE
CONDENSATE DRAIN TRAP.
5. AN OPTIONAL OVERFLOW BYPASS LINE MAY BE INSTALLED IN THE
EVENT THE PH NEUTRALIZER BECOMES BLOCKED OR RESTRICTED.
ENSURE OVERFLOW BYPASS LINE IS ABOVE THE PH NEUTRALIZER AND
BELOW THE OUTLET OF THE CONDENSATE DRAIN TRAP.
6. PROVIDE ACCESS TO THE PH NEUTRALIZER FOR ROUTINE TESTING
AND MAINTENANCE OF THE NEUTRALIZING MEDIA.
2. Connect neutralizer downstream of Condensate Drain
Trap.
3. Pipe outlet to appropriate drain.
4. Check condensate pH periodically.
