Install Condensate Drain Trap

A condensate drain trap is intended for use with the Fulton
Endura boiler.
ƒ Single Boiler Drain Trap
The single boiler condensate drain trap is Fulton Part Number
4-57-005500. The drain trap must be con gured one per
boiler, with a maximum of 4,000,000 mm BTU total. (See
Figures 13 and 15).
Adhere to the following for installation:
1. The 1 inch (25.4 mm) condensate drain will be reduced
and connected to the 3/4 inch (19.05 mm) inlet on the
base of the drain trap.
2. A condensate collecting tank and condensate pump
will be required if a oor drain is not available to collect
condensate (collecting tank and pump are not supplied
with the boiler).
3. All piping (Figure 13) must be CPVC, galvanized, or
stainless steel, and be free of leaks. Copper, carbon
steel/iron pipe, or PVC are not acceptable.
4. The drain trap must be installed below the boiler
condensate drain outlet.
5. Connect the 3/4 inch (19.05 mm) trap outlet to an
appropriate waste line following applicable codes. The
3/4 inch (19.05 mm) drain connection on the drain tank
must be the highest point prior to going to the drain.
Failure to keep drain piping lower than this point will
result in over ow of the drain tank. Slope the drain pipe
away at a minimum pitch of 1 inch (25.4 mm) for every
12 feet (3.65 m).
NOTE:
Ensure piping will not be exposed to freezing
temperatures.

ƒ Multiple Boilers Sharing A Common Drain Trap
The multiple boiler condensate drain trap is Fulton Part
Number 4-57-000440. The maximum number of units to
attach per condensate drain trap is 12,000,000 BTU total.
(See Figures 14 and 16).
Adhere to the following for installation:
1. The boiler 1 inch (25.4 mm) condensate drain will be
connected to the 1 inch (25.4 mm) inlet on the drain
trap. One or more drain lines may be connected to this
inlet (max of 12 MM BTU per drain).
2. If the water supply must be temporarily disconnected,
the boilers must be turned o to prevent accidental ue
gas emission into the boiler room.
3. The condensate drain cover must be kept on at all
times, except during maintenance of the drain. This
drain should be checked regularly in your boiler
maintenance schedule.
4. A condensate collecting tank and condensate pump
will be required if a oor drain is not available to collect
condensate (collecting tank and pump are not supplied
with the boiler.)
5. All piping (Figure 14) must be CPVC, galvanized, or
stainless steel, and be free of leaks. Copper, carbon
steel/iron pipe or PVC are not acceptable.
6. Connect 1 inch (25.4 mm) condensate drain(s) (at the
rear of the boiler), to the 1 inch (25.4 mm) inlet at the
base of the drain tank. The header must be below
the condensate outlet of the boiler, and must remain
ooded during operation.
7. Connect the 1.5 inch (38.1 mm) drain outlet to an
appropriate waste line following applicable codes. The
1.5 inch (38.1 mm) drain connection on the drain tank
must be the highest point prior to going to the drain.
Failure to keep drain piping lower than this point will
result in over ow of the drain tank. Slope the drain pipe
away at a minimum pitch of 1 inch (25.4 mm) for every
12 feet (3.65 m).
8. Attach a ¼" water supply to the compression tting
on the oat. The water line must be connected to an
uninterruptible supply. Fulton recommends connecting
it before the "fast ll" valve to the boiler supply but
after the back ow preventer to avoid contamination
of a potable water supply. Maximum allowable water
pressure to the compression tting is 100 PSI (689.5
kPa).
NOTE:
Ensure piping will not be exposed to freezing
temperatures.
