Table 1: Oil Caravan ratings hot water models - LDWO Series (100 psi maximum working pressure)
INTRODUCTION
This Caravan application manual is intended to simplify the selection
and application of Slant/Fin modular systems for a variety of space
heating and domestic hot water requirements. Where any additional
information is required, contract your local wholesaler, Slant/Fin
sales representative, or the Slant/Fin factory.
A. Design flexibility - Caravan modular boiler systems are
available in virtually any size capacity simply by adding modules.
B. Boiler room design, size and flexibility - since Caravan
modules have the burner and controls mounted to the front, they
can be installed with minimum clearances as per codes, thus
saving a significant amount of floor space.
C. Faster, easier installation - modules are completely factory
assembled, including individual jackets to save on-site labor.
Optional easy to install supply and return headers with flexible
quick connect fittings are available for hot water systems.
D. Safety - each module contains an individual high limit control
and a flame safeguard control. ASME relief valve is provided
separately for mounting directly on boiler.
E. Fast domestic hot water recovery - Caravan offers an external
heat exchanger of the positive circulating type.
* Light oil, 140,000 Btuh per gallon.
† 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.
‡ Based on 150 Btuh per square foot E.D.R. at 170°F average water temperature.
§ Modules in excess of 8 are piped in parallel to first eight.
For larger sizes, use multiples of the above.
