CONNECT GAS PIPING

A. INSTALL GAS TRAIN

1. The Gas Control Train(s) supplied with this boiler:

• Has been factory assembled and tested for

tightness of joints.

• Must be re-tested after installation with a soap

suds test to assure it is still leak-tight after
assembly.

• Must be isolated from the gas supply piping

during testing of the supply piping.

2. Assemble the Gas Control Train(s) to the Manifold

with the ground joint union(s) provided. See Figure
7.1. Models 211A-04 through 211A-18 are supplied
with a single Gas Control Train. Models 211A-19
and larger are supplied with two or more Gas
Control Trains.

3. Support the Gas Control Train(s) with a permanent

brace.

B. CONNECT PILOT GAS TUBING

1. Use 3/8" aluminum tubing or as required by local

codes.

2. Connect the Pilot Line to the Pilot Cock Assembly

supplied with the Gas Control Train.

3. Connect tubing to each pilot.

a. Connect electronic pilots to the Pilot Gas Valves.

b. Connect standing pilots (when supplied – see

Table 2.2) to the thermopilot valves.

c. Install thermocouples in the standing pilots and

connect to the thermopilot valves.

C. INSTALL VENT AND BLEED PIPING

1. Gas Pressure Regulator

a. Connect regulator vent outlet to outside

atmosphere using 1/4" tubing or as required by
local codes.

b. Terminate the tubing downward to prevent water

from entering the tubing and protect from any
obstruction.

c. Terminate the tubing above and well away from

normal breathing level or building air intakes.

2. Diaphragm Gas Valves

a. Pipe diaphragm gas valve bleed lines to outside

atmosphere unless the boiler is equipped with a
standing pilot. On standing pilot boilers, pipe the
valve bleed lines to the bleed piping pre-installed
to the pilot burner.

b. Use 1/4" tubing or as required by local codes.

Always pipe the bleed lines separate from the
regulator vent lines.
