WATER PIPING GENERAL Select the piping diagram for the type of system to be installed from pages 14 through 18. When a circulation pump is used in the system a plug cock should be installed where indicated to regulate water flow through the heater.
If the tank(s) bottom is lower than the plug by more than 10 feet, a two stage pump with a two line system must be used with maximum tubing runs (which includes lift) as shown in Table 7. TABLE 7. Distance Max.
All heaters are shipped with the pump pressure set at 100 psig except the The tube of lubricant supplied with the pump includes directions GPO 86-199 which is set at 110 psig. for use. All oil pumps are fitted for installation on single fuel line systems. The pump •...
The water temperature is controlled by a thermostat, fig. 17, which has • THERMOSTAT (adjustable) set for desired water temperature. • It is suggested the thermostat be turned to the lowest setting which two sensing elements. One sensor is located near the top of the tank and satisfies the hot water requirements of the system.
DRAINING necessary. Inspection of the valve should be performed at least every three years. Do not attempt to repair the valve, as this could result in improper The water heater must be drained if it is to be shut down and exposed operating and a tank explosion.

MANIFOLD KIT COMMERCIAL OIL FIRED WATER HEATERS Precision cut type "L" all copper State manifold kits assure water flow balance of all units. Without this balance, the full water heating and storage potential of the system cannot be achieved. Plus, the units with the higher water flow may have a shortened life.
If the problem is not getting a spark to ignite the oil, check for the following: 1. Dirt or water in the supply line. 2. Pump loosing prime. 1. Loose wiring. 3. Bad motor. 2. Bad ignition transformer. 4. Erratic or low pressure at fuel pump. 3.
