2.4.2 MANUAL GAS SHUTOFF VALVE

A 1-1/4” manual gas shut-off valve is furnished

with each unit. The valve should be positioned

as shown in Figure 2.7. The manual gas shut-of

valve must be installed upstream of the supply

regulator in a readily accessible location.

2.4.3 IRI GAS TRAIN KIT

The IRI gas train is an optional gas train

required in some areas by code or for insurance

purposes. The IRI gas train is factory pre-piped

and wired. (See Appendix F, Drawing No. SD-A-

660).

2.5 ELECTRICAL SUPPLY

The AERCO Gas Fired Equipment Electrical

Power Wiring Guide, (GF-1060), must be

consulted in addition to the following material

before wiring to the unit is started. AC power

connection to the unit are made at the Power

Box.This box is located on the front right side of

the unit as shown in Figure 2.8. Conduit should

be run from the knockouts in the side of the box

in such a manner that it does not interfere with

the removal of any sheet metal covers. A flexible

electrical connection may be utilized to allow the

covers to be easily removed.

NOTE:

All electrical conduit and hardware should

be installed so that it does not interfere with

the removal of any cover, inhibit service or

maintenance, or prevent access between

the unit and walls or another unit.

2.5.1 ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS

Electrical requirements for each unit are 120

VAC, Single Phase, 60 Hz, 20 Amps from a

dedicated electrical circuit. No other devices

should be on the same electrical circuit as the

KC1000 unit.
A double-pole switch must be installed on the

electrical supply line in an easily accessible

location to quickly and safely disconnect

electrical service. DO NOT attach the switch to

sheet metal enclosures of the unit.
After placing the boiler in service, the ignition

safety shutoff device must be tested. If an

external electrical power source is used, the

installed boiler must be electrically bonded to

ground in accordance with the requirements of

the authority having jurisdiction. In the absence

of such requirements, the installation shall

conform to National Electrical Code (NEC),

ANSI/NFPA 70 and/or the Canadian Electrical

Code (CEC) Part I, CSA C22.1 Electrical Code.
The AC power wiring diagram is shown in Figure

2.9.

2.6 MODE OF OPERATION and FIELD

CONTROL WIRING

The KC Boiler is available in several different

modes of operation. While each unit is factory

configured and wired for the mode specified on

the equipment order, some field wiring may be

required to complete the installation. This wiring

is typically routed to the Input/Output (I/O) Box

located on the left side of the unit beneath the
