FORWARD FOREWORD The AERCO Benchmark (BMK) 6000 MBH Boiler is a modulating and condensing unit. It represents a true industry advancement that meets the needs of today's energy and environmental concerns. Designed for application in any closed loop hydronic system, the Benchmark's modulating capability relates energy input directly to fluctuating system loads.

INSTALLATION 2.6.1 Pressure Relief Valve Installation Depending on the pressure required, the Benchmark 6000 is supplied with either a single 2” or two (2) 1¼“ ASME rated Pressure Relief Valves. The pressure rating for the relief valve must be specified on the sales order. Available pressure ratings range from 30 psi to 160 psi, depending on pressure vessel maximum rated pressure.
It must be installed so that the sensing bulb is inserted into the hot water outlet flow from the boiler. Refer to Figure 2-5B for sample installations. Figure 2-5B: Pressure/Temperature Gauge Installation Location AERCO International, Inc. • 100 Oritani Dr. • Blauvelt, NY 10913 OMM-0086_0D Page 21 of 210 Ph.: 800-526-0288...
• The base of the condensate trap must be supported to ensure that it is level (horizontal). • The trap must be removable for routine maintenance. AERCO recommends that a union be utilized between the exhaust manifold condensate drain port and the trap inlet port.

Figure 2-13: I/O Box Terminal Strips 2.10.1 OUTDOOR AIR IN Terminal An OUTDOOR AIR IN terminal is used for connecting an outdoor temperature sensor (AERCO P/N GM-123525) as required primarily for the Indoor/Outdoor reset mode of operation. It can also be used with another mode if it is desired to use the outdoor sensor enable/disable feature.
“to view only” input that can be seen in the operating menu. The sensor is an AERCO BALCO wire sensor Part No. 12449. A resistance chart for this sensor is provided in APPENDIX C. This sensor is an active part of the combustion control system and must be operational for accurate air/fuel mixing control.
2.10.9 RS485 Comm Terminals The RS-485 communication terminals (+, GND, & -) are used when the boiler plant is being controlled by an Energy Management System (EMS) or AERCO ACS (formerly BMS/BMS-II) using Modbus (RS-485) communication. 2.10.10 RS232 Comm Terminals The RS-232 communication terminals (TxD, RxD) permit a laptop computer or other suitable terminal to be connected to the boiler.
2.11 FLUE GAS VENT INSTALLATION The AERCO Gas Fired Venting and Combustion Air Guide, GF-2050 must be consulted before any flue or combustion air venting is designed or installed. Suitable, U/L approved, positive pressure, watertight vent materials MUST be used for safety and UL certification. Because the unit is capable of discharging low temperature exhaust gases, the flue must be pitched back towards the unit a minimum of 1/4"...
The more common methods of combustion air supply are outlined in the following sections. For combustion air supply from ducting, consult the AERCO GF-2050, Gas Fired Venting and Combustion Air Guide. 2.12.1 Combustion From Outside the Building Air supplied from outside the building must be provided through two permanent openings.
In a ducted combustion air application, the combustion air ducting pressure losses must be taken into account when calculating the total maximum allowable venting run. See the AERCO Benchmark Venting and Combustion Air Guide, GF-2050. When using the unit in a ducted combustion air configuration, each unit must have a minimum 8 inch diameter connection at the unit.
