Slant/Fin LDWO SERIES - Manual

Modular Boiler Submittal Data
A Caravan modular boiler system consists of
two or more compact cast-iron boilers that offer
significant advantages in terms of installed
cost, efficiency and reliability. Caravan
systems are based on step-firing just enough
modules to meet hot water or space heating
demands. LDWO systems are available in
602,000 to multi-million Btuh gross input.
For additional information, see Caravan
Engineering Manual, pub. C-30 and Caravan
oil application guide, pub. CG-10-HWO.

* Light oil, 140,000 Btuh per gallon.
† Based on 150 Btuh per square foot E.D.R. at 170°F average
water temperature.
‡ Net ratings are based on a piping and pick-up allowance of
1.15. Slant/Fin should be consulted before selecting a boiler
for installation having unusual piping and pick-up requirements.
§ Modules in excess of 8 are piped in parallel to first eight.
NOTE: For higher capacities, specify any combination of standard
Caravan models shown.
