WATER PIPING

1.6.1 General Piping Issues
The SL 28-160 boiler was designed to be easy to install in almost any application.
Its unique multi-port piping design allows connection from either side or both
sides at once.
Figure 23: Overview of piping options
Primary/secondary piping, or the use of a hydraulic separator is recommended
for maximum flexibility in multi-load applications, but piping loads in parallel
is also encouraged in systems that only have two loads, or when loads are
operating simultaneously. The extremely low pressure drop through the SL Series
heat exchanger allows many options not available in other designs. In short –
IBC has built a boiler that will allow you to pipe the system the way you prefer,
rather than try and dictate your piping practices from boiler to radiator.
There are some important details to consider however, and this section of the
Installation and Operating Manual will walk you through them so you can enjoy a
trouble-free installation.
