• Install discharge piping from safety relief valve. See

figure 5-2.

• Use ¾" or larger pipe.
• Use pipe suitable for temperatures of 375°F (191°C)

or greater.

• Individual boiler discharge piping shall be independent

of other discharge piping.

• Size and arrange discharge piping to avoid reducing

safety relief valve relieving capacity below minimum

relief valve capacity stated on rating plate.

• Run pipe as short and straight as possible to location

protecting user from scalding and properly drain

piping.

• Install union, if used, close to safety relief valve outlet.
• Install elbow(s), if used, close to safety relief valve

outlet and downstream of union (if used).

• Terminate pipe with plain end (not threaded).

5.4 Trim Piping

• Temperature - Pressure Gauge. Install temperature

pressure gauge using nipple, tee and bushing provided

with boiler. See figure 5-3.

• Drain Valve. Install drain valve using nipple, tee and

bushing provided with boiler. See figure 5-3.

5.5 System Piping

• See Table 3 for basic system piping configurations.
• Systems with automatic fill valves require back flow

prevention device.

• Single boiler system. See figures 5-4, 5-5, 5-6, 5-7A, & B

for general guidance. Additional considerations:

• Boiler control is designed for single central heating

pump. Installer responsible for integration of

multiple central heating pumps.

• Boiler control allows domestic hot water

prioritization. Function could be lost if central

heating pump not directly connected to control

system.

• Multiple boiler system. See figure 5-8A, B & C for general

guidance. Additional considerations:

• Control system requires equivalent water

temperatures entering each boiler to properly

sequence and adjust system supply temperature.

• Install multi boiler sensor kit. See "Parts, Kits &

Optional Accessories" manual for part number.

• Heating system with existing primary loop, close internal

primary loop ball valve.

• Heating system without existing primary loop, leave internal

primary loop ball valve open to use internal primary loop.
