CAUTION
This boiler is certifi ed for indoor
installation only.
This boiler is not designed for use in
systems where water is continuously
replenished. Mineral build-up may
occur on the heat transfer surfaces
and result in overheating and
possible heat exchange failure. The
warranty is valid for closed loop
systems only.
Fulton cannot be held responsible
for the selection, engineering,
installation, or sizing of any
additional equipment or components
of the hydronic heating system.
This boiler, when installed in
conjunction with a refrigeration
system, must be installed so that the
chilled medium is piped in parallel
with the boiler with appropriate valves
to prevent the chilled medium from
entering the boiler. If the boilers are
connected to heating coils located in
air handling units where they may be
exposed to refrigerated air circulation,
such boiler piping systems must be
equipped with fl ow control valves or
other automatic means to prevent
gravity circulation of the boiler water
during the cooling cycle.
Product Overview
Prior to the performance of installation, operation, or maintenance procedures,
personnel should become familiar with the equipment (Table 1, Figures 1 and 2)
and its components.
The Fulton Pulse combustion hydronic boiler is an automatic gas fi red, direct
vent boiler. This boiler utilizes pulse
combustion principle. It does not
have conventional burner controls
or chimney. The combustion
components are of integral design
with the heat exchanger. Each boiler
is built to ASME and CSD-1 Codes,
hydrostatically tested, test fi red, and
shipped as a complete packaged
unit.
All installations must be in
accordance with the American
National Standard “National Fuel
Gas Code,” latest edition, and with
the requirements of local utilities or
other authorities having jurisdiction.
Such applicable requirements
take precedence over the general
instructions herein.
Since an external electrical source
is utilized, the boiler must be
electrically grounded in accordance
with the National Electrical Code,
ANSI/NFPA 70-latest edition.
In some cases the approval authority may insist that the installation conform to
the American Society of Mechanical Engineers ASME safety standard for controls
and safety devices for automatically fi red boilers, or CSD-1. In Canada, gas
installations must be in accordance with the current CAN/CGA B149.1 and .2 and/
or local codes. Electrical installations must be installed in accordance with the
current CSA C22.1 Canadian Electrical Code and/or local codes.
