. Read and apply the harness plug warning label

(Figure 10) so that it is visible after installation.

. Plug damper harness receptacle into damper harness

plug.

Bypassing (jumpering) vent damper will

cause flue products such as carbon mon-

oxide to escape into the house. This will

cause severe personal injury or death.

After boiler has operated once, if either

end of the harness is disconnected, the

system safety shutdown will occur. The

boiler will not operate until harness is

reconnected.

Effikal or Field Controls damper

— Damp-

er hold open switch must be in “Automatic

Operation” position for system to operate

properly.

Damper installation

If not installing a vent damper, proceed to page 1.

Once damper is installed, boiler will not operate without a

damper installed.

Only dampers listed in the Replacement parts table on page

are approved for use on EG-0 through EG- Series and

PEG-0 through PEG- Series using Universal Control

Systems. Any other vent damper installed could cause severe

personal injury or death.

The following boiler models must have

damper installed:

• EG-30 through EG-65, natural or propane gas.

• PEG-30 through PEG-65, steam, natural gas.

The following boiler models may have damper

installed:

• EG-75 and EGH-85 through EGH-125, natural or propane

gas.

Minimum clearances to combustibles

Provide a minimum of ” between the vent damper and any combustible

material. (Provide a minimum of ” between jacket top and combustible

ceiling for EG/PEG, or ” for EGH.) See EG • PEG • EGH Boiler manual

for complete clearance requirements.

Installation

Damper must be installed directly on top of draft hood so

that it serves only that boiler. Do not modify draft hood or

damper, or make another connection between draft hood and

damper or boiler except as noted below. This will void CSA

certification and will not be covered by Weil-McLain war-

ranty. Any changes will cause severe personal injury, death,

or substantial property damage.

1. Install plug (packed in damper carton of ” through 8” dampers) in

hole in damper blade.

. Install vent damper horizontally or vertically as shown in vent damper

manufacturer’s instructions. Vent damper must be installed so that it

serves only one boiler and so damper blade indicator is visible to the

user. See Figure .

. Screws or rivets used to secure the vent damper to the draft hood must

not interfere with rotation of the damper blade.

. Install damper harness between damper actuator and knockout in jacket

top panel. Use strain relief connectors and locknuts to secure both ends

of the damper harness.

Keep wiring harness clear of all hot surfaces.
