Start-Up Procedures
WARNING
Venting system must be sealed gas-tight
to prevent flue gas spillage and potential
carbon monoxide emissions, which will
result in severe personal injury or death.
Check Gas Piping
Check around the unit for gas odor fol-
lowing the procedure outlined in this
manual on Page 37.
WARNING
If any gas leaks are found or suspected,
shut the unit down immediately. Use a
gas detection device or bubble test to
locate the source of the gas leak and
repair at once. Do not operate the unit
until the leak is corrected. Failure to
comply with this procedure could result
in severe personal injury, death or sub-
stantial property damage.
Verify Flame Pattern and Combustion
Check the flame pattern through the
inspection port of the heat exchanger.
The flame should be blue and stable.
The flame should be the length of the
burner head openings.
WARNING
The combustion testing and adjustments
must be performed by a qualified
i n s t a l l e r, service agency or the gas suppli-
e r. All combustion measurements must be
perform with calibrated equipment to
e n s u re pro p e r reading and accuracy.
Test for CO2 or O2 and for CO during
high firing rate. To manually place the
boiler into high fire mode, reference
page 43, the combustion reading should
be within the range listed in Table 2.
The CO level should not exceed 100
ppm when combustion is correct.
WARNING
The combustion levels should be mea-
sured at high firing rate, refer to page 43
of the PRESTIGE control section on
how to set the firing rate. If the combus-
tion levels are not within the range given
in Table 2 for the firing rate, shut the
boiler down and contact Triangle Tube
Engineering Department. Failure to
comply with this re q u i rement could
result in severe personal injury, death or
substantial property damage.
Measure Input - Natural Gas Only
Table 2: Recommended Combustion Levels
1. Ensure the boiler is firing at maximum firing
rate. To manually place the boiler into high
fire mode, reference page 43.
2. Operate the unit for approximately 10
m i n u t e s .
3. Turn off all gas appliances within the build-
ing, except the PRESTIGE.
4. At the gas meter, record the time required
to use one cubic foot of gas.
5. Calculate Natural gas input using the fol-
lowing equation:
3600 x 1000 / number of second recorded
for one cubic foot of gas = BTU/H.
6. The BTU/H calculated should approximate
the input rating listed on the unit.
