The Raypak hydronic boilers are design certified by
the American Gas Association, and tested under the
requirements of the American National Standard, ANSI
Z21.13. Each boiler has been constructed and pressure
tested in accordance with the requirements of Section
IV of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers
Code, and factory fire tested.
The boilers are designed for indoor installation with
a built-in drafthood, and a built-in sub-base for combustible flooring. Models are available with standing pilot,
or with intermittent ignition device (I.I.D.). The boilers
are equipped with the following components: water
circulation pump, pressure relief valve, temperature/
pressure gauge, adjustable high limit switch, drain
valve, fast response temperature sensor, 40 VA transformer, pump relay, vent thermal switch, flame roll-out
switch, and redundant combination gas valve for use
with either natural or propane gases. Two-staged gas
valve (50% firing on 1st stage) is standard on models
H-0090, H-0135 and H-0180.
The automatic ignition models and some standing
pilot models are provided with a plug-in connector that
is compatible with the Honeywell D80D vent damper.
Similar type vent dampers made by other manufacturers, and design certified by a nationally-recognized
testing Agency, under the ANSI Z21.66 standards, may
also be used.

CODE REQUIREMENTS
Installation must be in accordance with local
codes, or, in the absence of local codes, with the latest
editions of the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1,
and the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70. In
Canada installations must conform with the current
CAN/CGA B149.1 or .2 and the Canadian Electrical
Code Part 1 CSA C22.2 No.1. Where required by the
authority having jurisdiction, the installation must conform to American Society of Mechanical Engineers
Safety Code for Controls and Safety Devices for Automatically Fired Boilers, No. CSD-1.

2) A front clearance of at least 24" is recommended for
adequate service of burner-tray and controls.

MOUNTING BASE
Boiler should be mounted on a level surface. Each
boiler is designed with a built-in sub-base approved for
mounting the boiler on combustible flooring. Boiler
must NOT be installed on carpet flooring.

3) Except for carpeted flooring, boilers are certified for
installation on combustible floors.
4) For un-insulated hot water pipes, maintain a 2"
clearance, or consult local authority having jurisdiction.
COMBUSTION/VENTILATION AIR
WARNING: Air supply to the boiler room must not be
affected by mechanical exhaust vents located in other
parts of the house, such as kitchen or bathroom fans,
or attic blowers. Mechanical exhaust vents may create
a negative pressure condition in the boiler room that
can become a hazard of asphyxiation, explosion or fire.
CAUTION: Combustion air must not be contaminated
by corrosive chemical fumes which can damage the
boiler. Measures must be taken to prevent the entry of
corrosive chemical fumes to the combustion and ventilation air supply. Such chemicals include, but are not
limited to, chlorinated and/or fluorinated hydrocarbons
such as found in refrigerants, aerosol propellants, drycleaning fluids, degreasers, and paint removers. Other
harmful elements may come from bleaches, air fresheners, or mastics. Vapors from these types of products
can form corrosive acid compounds when burned in a
gas flame. The resulting acid condensate can damage
or substantially reduce the life of the heater. It may be
necessary to provide outside air directly to the heater in
order to avoid this problem.

Fig.# 8196.0p

NOTE: The boiler should be located in an area where
water leakage will not result in damage to the area
adjacent to the appliance or to the structure. When
such locations cannot be avoided, it is recommended
that a suitable drain pan, adequately drained, be installed under the appliance. The pan must not restrict
air flow.

1) The boiler must be provided with adequate supply of
air for proper combustion and ventilation in accordance with Sec. 5.3, of the latest edition of the
National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1, or applicable provisions of the local building codes.

In addition, the boiler shall be installed such that
the gas ignition system components are protected from
water (dripping, spraying, rain, etc.) during appliance
operation and service (circulator replacement, control
replacement, etc.)
4

2) When the boiler is installed in a confined space
such as a utility room or closet (Models 0030,0042
and 0066 only), where all air is supplied from inside
the building, the boiler room must be provided with
two openings, each one having a minimum net free
area, in square inches as follows:
Model
0030, 0042 & 0066

Location of the openings is the same as in the
previous case - that is, within 12 inches of the top, and
within 12 inches of the bottom of the enclosure. If
horizontal ducts are used, the area must be doubled and
the duct area shall not be less than the area of the
openings they connect, and in no case shall the smallest dimension be less than 3 inches.

VENTING CONNECTIONS
These boilers have built-in drafthoods. Vent piping
the same size or larger than the draft hood outlet is
recommended; however, when the total vent height
(drafthood outlet to vent terminal) is at least ten (10)
feet, the vent pipe size may be reduced by one size only
as specified in Part 11, Note 2 and in Appendix G of the
latest edition of the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z
223.1. As much as possible avoid horizontal runs of
vent pipe and too many elbows. If installation requires
horizontal runs, the vent pipe must have a minimum of
1/4 inch per foot rise and should be supported at not less
than five foot intervals. Maximum vent connector horizontal length shall be 1-1/2 feet (18 inches) for each inch
of connector diameter as follows.

One opening shall be within 12 inches of the top,
and the other opening within 12 inches of the floor. If
additional gas appliances are installed in the same
space, the total input of all gas appliances installed in
the same space, must be considered in the calculation.
Refer to Sec. 5.3.5 of the latest edition of the National
Fuel Gas Code for additional requirements.

Gas Vents supported only by the flashing and
extending above the roof more than five feet should be
securely guyed or braced to withstand snow and wind
loads. We recommend use of insulated vent pipe
spacer through the roofs and walls.
For protections against rain or blockage by snow,
the vent pipe must terminate with a listed vent cap which
complies with the local codes or, in the absence of such
codes, to the latest edition of the National Fuel Gas
Code, ANSI Z 223.1.
The discharge opening must be a minimum of two
feet vertically from the roof surface and at least two (2)
feet higher than any part of the building within ten (10)
feet. Vent stack shall be at least five (5) feet in vertical
height above the drafthood outlet. The vent cap location
shall have a minimum clearance of four (4) feet horizontally from, and in no case above or below, unless a 4-foot
horizontal distance is maintained, from electric meters,
gas meters regulators and relief equipment.

NOTE: If louvers, grills or screens are used on the
openings, obtain the net free area from their supplier or
manufacturer. If the design free area of a louver is not
known nor available, it shall be assumed that wood
louvers will have 20-25 percent free area and metal
louvers will have 60-75 percent free area as shown in
Sec. 5.3.5 National Fuel Gas Code.

At the time of removal of an existing boiler, the
following steps shall be followed with each appliance
remaining connected to the common venting system
placed in operation, while the other appliances remaining connected to the common venting system are not
in operation.

VENT DAMPER INSTALLATION
LOCATION
The vent damper supplied with each boiler must be
located in the vent so that it serves only the appliance
for which it is intended.
If improperly installed, a hazardous condition,
such as an explosion or carbon monoxide poisoning, could result. Make certain that it is mounted in an
accessible location at least 6 in. (152.4 mm) from any
combustible material or the heat exchanger and that
the position indicator is in a visible location.
The vent damper must be installed at the appliance draft hood, and without modification of the draft
hood.
To connect the vent damper wiring to the boiler wiring,
remove the jumper from the circuit plug. (See wiring
diagram) Connect the damper circuit plug to the boiler
circuit plug.

(a) Seal any unused openings in the common venting
system.
(b) Visually inspect the venting system for proper size
and horizontal pitch and determine there is no
blockage or restriction, leakage, corrosion and
other deficiencies which could cause an unsafe
condition.
(c) Insofar as is practical, close all building doors and
windows and all doors between the space in which
the appliances remaining connected to the common venting system are located and other spaces
of the building. Turn on clothes dryers and any
appliance not connected to the common venting
system. Turn on any exhaust fans, such as range
hoods and bathroom exhausts, so they will operate
at maximum speed. Do not operate a summer
exhaust fan. Close fireplace dampers.
(d) Place in operation the appliance being inspected.
Follow the lighting instructions. Adjust thermostat
so appliance will operate continuously.
e) Test for spillage at the draft hood relief opening
after 5 minutes of main burner operation. Use the
flame of a match or candle, or smoke from a
cigarette, cigar or pipe to visually check spillage.
(f) After it has been determined that each appliance
remaining connected to the common venting system properly vents when tested as outlined above,
return doors, windows, exhaust fans, fireplace
dampers and any other gas burning appliance to
their previous conditions of use.
(g) Any improper operation of the common venting
system should be corrected so the installation
conforms with the latest edition of the National Fuel
Gas Code, ANSI Z 223.1. When resizing any
portion of the common venting system, the common venting system should be resized to approach the minimum size as determined using the
appropriate tables in Part 11 and in Appendix G
of the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z 223.1 and
CAN/CGA - B149.1 - M91.

MOUNTING
On vertical vents, the vent damper may be mounted with the actuator in any position. On horizontal vents,
do not mount the actuator either directly above or directly below the vent pipe; mount the vent damper actuator
to the side of the vent.
The vent damper is set up for a continuous pilot system. If the vent damper is installed on an Intermittent Pilot
or Hot Surface Ignition equipped system, the energy savings of the vent damper can be improved by plugging the
hole in the vent damper blade using the knockout plug, Part No. 105612R, provided in the parts envelope.

GAS SUPPLY CONNECTIONS
The inlet gas connection of the boiler gas valve is
1/2". Provide an adequate gas piping supply line no
smaller than 1/2", according to the chart below:

The gas valve is provided with pressure taps to
measure gas pressure upstream of the gas valve and
downstream which is the same as the manifold pressure.

Maximum Equivalent Pipe Length (Feet)

WATER CONNECTIONS & SYSTEM PIPING
The pipe size for water connections is shown on
page 3. Typical piping systems are shown on pages 11
to 13.
The boiler is supplied as standard with a circulator
and a built -in by-pass to insure the required minimum
water flow in the boiler. The by-pass on models H-0135
and H-0180 is provided with an adjustable valve that is
factory set in the full open position. The handle is
shipped loose. The full open position is appropriate for
most systems, and insures adequate flow through the
boiler. If system flow is inadequate, (indicated by
excessive temperature drop through the system) the bypass valve can be throttled slightly. Care must be taken
against over throttling which may lead to inadequate
flow through the boiler and boiler harmonics (a humming
sound from the heat exchanger). If adequate system
flow cannot be obtained without causing harmonics, an
additional pump is required. The factory mounted
circulator will provide adequate water flow for systems
designed at a 20°F temperature drop, and system
pressure drop or head not exceeding that is shown
below.

CAUTION: The boiler and its manual shut off valve must
be disconnected from the gas supply during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess
of 1/2 psig (3.45 KPA). Dissipate test pressure in the
gas supply line before reconnecting the boiler and its
manual shut off valve to gas supply line. FAILURE TO
FOLLOW THIS PROCEDURE MAY DAMAGE THE
GAS VALVE. OVER PRESSURED GAS VALVES ARE
NOT COVERED BY WARRANTY. The boiler and its
gas connections shall be leak tested before placing the
appliance in operation. Use soapy water for leak test.
DO NOT use open flame.

When the total system head exceeds the available
head pressures, a primary/secondary pumping system
is recommended.
The minimum boiler operating temperature
should be 105°F. When operating at low temperature applications, ÐT (temperature rise) must be
20°F or less.
Propylene glycol solution is commonly used in the
heating system when freeze protection is required. This
will affect the system design and pump performance. As
a "rule of thumb", 50% solution of propylene glycol will
require the system flow (GPM) to increase by 14%, and
the system head (Ft/Wtr) by 23% in order to maintain the
same heat transfer load.

NOTE: Do not use teflon tape on gas line pipe thread.
A flexible sealant suitable for use with Natural and
Propane gases is recommended.

Systems with multiple zones may require an additional circulator. Consult manufacturers data for valve
pressure drops. When an indirect water heating system is used, it is recommended that a separate circulator be
installed to meet the required flow and pressure drop conditions of the indirect water heater.
We recommend that the make up water from the cold water line have a check valve, gate valve, and feedwater
regulator set at 12 psig. Install unions and gate or ball valves at inlet and outlet connections at the boiler to facilitate
servicing.
The pressure relief valve is mounted on the boiler and must be piped to a drain. We recommend that all high
points be vented and that purge valves be installed. A boiler installed above radiation level must be provided with
a low water cutoff device. See page 21 for wiring hook-up. The boiler, when used in connection with a refrigeration
system, must be installed so the chilled medium is piped in parallel with the boiler with appropriate valves to prevent
the chilled medium from entering the boiler.

ELECTRICAL WIRING
The electrical power supply requirement for these
boilers is 115 volts, 60 Hz. Field wiring connections and
electrical grounding must comply with the local codes,
or in the absence of local codes, with the National
Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70-1987. Provide a separate fused circuit from the main electrical panel to the
boiler, and a disconnecting means within sight of the
boiler.
Remove the control box cover and make the power
supply connections in the field wiring compartment.
(See general location of controls drawing on page 18).
The pump is supplied and factory wired to operate with
the boiler. The "TH" wire leads are for the room
thermostat or zone valve connections.

The room thermostat should be installed in accordance
with the manufacturer's instructions. The thermostat
heat anticipator should be set at 1.0 ampere (automatic
ignition) and 0.60 ampere (standing pilot) for single
zone installations. For multi-zone applications, the heat
anticipator setting should be based on the ampere load
in the thermostat circuit.
NOTE: If it is necessary to replace any of the original
wiring, it must be replaced with 105°C wire or its
equivalent, except 150° black wire must be replaced
with 150°C wire or its equivalent. See wiring diagram
key for 150°C wire indication.

SEQUENCE OF OPERATION
INTERMITTENT IGNITION DEVICE (IID)
Boilers equipped with the IID system will automatically light the pilot burner first and then the main burner, each
time there is a call for heat from the room thermostat. Whenever the room thermostat is calling for heat, the
circulator supplied with the boiler, will be energized and should be running. The ignition control module will also
be energized to initiate the pilot ignition by opening the first main valve (pilot). At the same time, the electronic
spark generator in the module produces a high voltage spark pulse output that lights the pilot burner. If the pilot
burner does not light, the module will not energize the second main valve and the burners will not light. Ignition
spark continues only until the timed trial for ignition period ends. Then, the module goes into safety shutdown or
lockout. Lockout de-energizes the first main valve operator and closes the first main (pilot) valve in the gas control,
stopping pilot gas flow. The ignition control system must be reset by setting the thermostat below room
temperature for one minute or by turning off power to the module for one minute. When the pilot flame is
established, flame rectification circuit is completed between the sensor and burner ground. The flame sensing
circuit in the module detects the flame current, shuts off the spark generator and energizes the second main valve
operator which opens the second main valve. This allows gas to flow to the burners where it is ignited by the pilot
burner flame. When the thermostat is satisfied, the valve operators are de-energized shutting off the pilot and main
burners, and also the circulator.

22

START-UP PROCEDURES
SECTION 1. Filling the System
Fill system with water. Purge all air from the system
using purge valve sequence. After system is purged of
air, lower system pressure. Open valves for normal
system operation, fill system through feed pressure
regulator to minimum 12 PSI. Manually open air vent
on the compression tank until water appears, then close
vent.
On multiple zone systems, purge each zone separately. Isolate the other zones while one zone is being
purged of air.
Flush system before putting into operation to assure that foreign material does not damage pump seals.
SECTION 2. Checking the Circulator
Before lighting the boiler and after system is filled,
make sure that circulator is operating properly. Manual
gas valve should be off. By adjusting the wall thermostat to the maximum setting, circulator should run
immediately and allow water to flow through the boiler
and the entire system.
NOTE: Circulator motor supplied with the boiler does
not require lubrication.
CAUTION: In case of a prolonged power failure during
freezing weather conditions, boiler and piping system
must be drained completely to avoid possible damage
to the heating system.

23

SECTION 3. Lighting the Boiler
Safe lighting and other performance criteria were
met with the gas manifold and control assembly provided on the boiler when the boiler underwent tests
specified in ANSI-Z21.13a 1983 Standard.

NORMAL INSPECTION PROCEDURES
First and third month after initial start up and then on
an annual basis. If problems are found, refer to Trouble
Shooting Guide for additional directions.

INSPECTION PROCEDURES
BURNERS

1. Remove top of boiler and inspect heat exchanger
for soot and examine venting system.
2. Remove rear header and inspect for scale deposits.
*3. Inspect pilot and main burner flame and firing rate.
*4. Inspect and operate all controls and gas valve.
*5. Visually inspect system for water leaks.
*6. Oil pump motor and bearing assembly, if oil cups
are provided.
7. Check flow switch paddle.
8. Clean room air intake openings to assure adequate
flow of combustion and ventilation air.
9. Keep boiler area clear and free from combustible
materials, gasoline, and other flammable vapors
and liquids.
*Should be checked monthly. (Takes approximately 15
minutes).

Clean main burners and air louvers of dust, lint and
debris. Keep boiler area clear and free from combustibles and flammable liquids. Do not obstruct the flow of
combustion and ventilating air. Make visual check of
burner and pilot flame. Yellow flame indicates clogging
of air openings. Lifting or blowing flame indicates high
gas pressure. Low flame indicates low gas pressure.

LOW WATER CUT OFF WHEN INSTALLED
The low water cut off automatically shuts down
burner whenever water level drops below probe. 90
second time delay prevents premature lockout due to
temporary conditions such as power failure or air pockets. Flush float type devices at beginning of each
heating season.
PROCEDURE FOR CLEANING FLUE GAS
PASSAGE-WAYS
Soot will clog areas behind fins and cause eventual
tube failure. Any sign of soot at base of burners or
around outer jacket indicates a need for cleaning.
1. Lift off draft hood and flue collector by removing
bolts and screws.
2. Remove "V" baffles from heat exchanger.
3. Remove burner tray, see Burner Drawer Removal.
4. Take garden hose and wash heat exchanger, making sure soot is removed from between fins.
(Avoid excessive water against refractory).
5. Reassemble; when boiler is fired, some steam will
form from wet refractory. This is normal.
NOTE: In extreme cases it may be necessary to
remove the heat exchanger completely for cleaning.
The simplest method is steam cleaning at a local car
wash. DO NOT WIRE BRUSH!

CAUTION:
Soot is combustible, so exercise extreme care.
BURNER DRAWER REMOVAL
1. Shut off power and gas supply to the boiler. Disconnect union(s) and pilot tubing when present;
then loosen and remove burner hold down screws.
2. Disconnect wires at gas valve and slide burner
drawer out.
MAIN BURNER AND ORIFICE REMOVAL
1. Remove screws and burner hold down bracket.
NOTE: If the heat exchanger is sooted badly, the
burner hold down bracket and spacer can become
distorted from direct flame impingement and this usually necessitates replacement of these parts.
2. Lift burners from slotted spacer and slide from
orifices. Clean with a wire brush.
3. Orifices usually do not need to be replaced. To
clean, run either copper wire or wood through
orifice. Do not enlarge hole. To remove orifice, use
a socket wrench and remove the manifold. DO
NOT overtighten when reinstalling.

RAYPAK TUBE CLEANING KIT

Extension Pieces (5)
REPAIR SECTION
TUBE CLEANING PROCEDURE (TYPICAL)
Establish a regular inspection schedule, the frequency depending on the local water condition and
severity of service. Do not let the tubes clog up solidly.
Clean out deposits over 1/16" in thickness.
The boiler may be cleaned from the side opposite
the water connections as shown, without breaking pipe
connections. It is preferable, however, to remove both
headers for better visibility through the tubes and to be
sure the residue does not get into the system.
Note that you do not remove the top pan or the heat
exchanger generally.
After reaming with the auger, mount the wire brush
and clean out the debris remaining in the tubes.
