Notes:
1. Provide manual shutoff valves in the system piping at the supply outlet and the return inlet so the boiler can be drained without draining the entire
system.
2. For other than the standard voltages shown, consult Weil-McLain Application Engineering Department.
3. Copper wire (AWG-MCM). Consult national or local electrical code manuals for runs in excess of 50 feet. Do no use aluminum wire.
4. All ratings are based on 240-volt power input. See Figure 1 for percent of boiler capacity when the input voltage is below 240 volts. Gross output
ratings. Piping loss not confined to the heated area should be added to the building loss to determine total heating equipment.
