DANGER
DO NOT store or use gasoline or other flammable vapors or liquids in the vicinity of this or any
other appliance.
WARNING
Improper installation, adjustment, alteration, service or maintenance can cause property
damage, personal injury or loss of life. Failure to follow all instructions in the proper order
can cause personal injury or death. Read and understand all instructions, including all
those contained in component manufacturers manuals which are provided with the
appliance before installing, starting-up, operating, maintaining or servicing this appliance.
Keep this manual and literature in legible condition and posted near appliance for reference
by owner and service technician.
This boiler requires regular maintenance and service to operate safely. Follow the
instructions contained in this manual. Installation, maintenance, and service must be
performed only by an experienced, skilled and knowledgeable installer or service agency.
All heating systems should be designed by competent contractors and only persons
knowledgeable in the layout and installation of hydronic heating systems should attempt
installation of any boiler. It is the responsibility of the installing contractor to see that all
controls are correctly installed and are operating properly when the installation is
completed. Installation is not complete unless a pressure relief valve is installed into the
specified tapping located at the rear of appliance - See Section III of this manual for details.
This boiler is suitable for installation on combustible flooring. Do not install boiler on
carpeting. Do not operate on floors where heat affected material is below.
Do not tamper with or alter the boiler or controls. Retain your contractor or a competent
serviceman to assure that the unit is properly adjusted and maintained.
Clean boiler at least once a year - preferably at the start of the heating season to remove
soot and scale. The inside of combustion chamber should also be cleaned and inspected
at the same time.
Have Burner and Controls checked at least once a year or as may be necessitated.
Do not operate unit with jumpered or absent controls or safety devices.
Do not operate unit if any control, switch, component, or device has been subject to water.
Return water cannot be lower than 135°F for prolonged periods of time. Operation under
these conditions will result in sustained condensing within the combustion chamber and
potentially reduce boiler longevity.
In addition, the return water cannot be introduced into the boiler if it is more than 40°F less
than the idle boiler temperature. Continued operation under these conditions may result in
premature boiler failure through thermal shock.
Example: A boiler that has been idle for some time since the last heat demand cycle may
have it's boiler water temperature reduced to 150°F. The return temperature from the next
zone activation cannot be less than 110°F.
If the above conditions exist, an RTC system must be installed to protect the boiler from
sustained condensing operation and thermal shock.
WARNING
Appliance materials of construction, products of combustion and the fuel contain alumina,
silica, heavy metals, carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides, aldehydes and/or other toxic or
harmful substances which can cause death or serious injury and which are known to the
state of California to cause cancer, birth defects and other reproductive harm. Always use
proper safety clothing, respirators and equipment when servicing or working nearby the
appliance.
This boiler contains very hot water or steam under high pressures. Do not unscrew any
pipe fittings nor attempt to disconnect any components of this boiler without positively
assuring the water is cool and has no pressure. Always wear protective clothing and
equipment when installing, starting up or servicing this boiler to prevent scald injuries. Do
not rely on the pressure and temperature gauges to determine the temperature and pressure
of the boiler. This boiler contains components which become very hot when the boiler is
operating. Do not touch any components unless they are cool.
This appliance must be properly vented and connected to an approved vent system in good
condition. Do not operate boiler with the absence of an approved vent system.
This boiler needs fresh air for safe operation and must be installed so there are provisions
for adequate combustion and ventilation air.
The interior of the venting and air intake systems must be inspected and cleaned before the
start of the heating season and should be inspected periodically throughout the heating
season for any obstructions. Clean and unobstructed venting and air intake systems are
necessary to allow noxious fumes that could cause injury or loss of life to vent safely and
will contribute toward maintaining the boiler's efficiency.
This boiler is supplied with controls which may cause the boiler to shut down and not re-
start without service. If damage due to frozen pipes is a possibility, the heating system
should not be left unattended in cold weather; or appropriate safeguards and alarms should
be installed on the heating system to prevent damage if the boiler is inoperative.
This boiler is designed to burn No. 2 fuel oil, natural and/or LP gas only. Do not use
gasoline, crankcase drainings, or any oil containing gasoline. Never burn garbage or paper
in this boiler. Do not convert boiler to burn any solid fuel (i. e. wood, coal) . All flammable
debris, rags, paper, wood scraps, etc., should be kept clear of the boiler at all times. Keep
the boiler area clean and free of fire hazards.
Probe and float type low water cutoff devices require annual inspection and maintenance.
Refer to instructions on Page 51, Item C for inspection and cleaning instructions.
NOTICE
All Series 24 cast iron boilers are designed, built, marked and tested in accordance with the
ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, Section IV, Heating Boilers. An ASME Data Label is
factory applied to each Series 24 jacket, which indicates the boiler Maximum Allowable Working
Pressure (MAWP). Each cast iron section is permanently marked with the MAWP listed on the
boiler's ASME Data Label. Those values for the Series 24 are as follows:
MAWP, Steam - 15 psi
MAWP, Water (USA) - 80 psi
MAWP, Water (Canada) - 45 psi
It is common and acceptable practice to install these boilers in lower pressure systems, below
the boiler MAWP. Therefore, Crown offers safety relief valves set at or below the MAWP of the
boiler. See page 9 for standard safety relief valve set pressures.

D. CHIMNEY OR VENT
C. PROVIDE AIR SUPPLY AND VENTILATION to
The Series 24 boiler is designed for forced draft firing
and may be used with a conventional natural draft
stack (15’ minimum height) or a stub vent, sometimes
called a diesel stack (see Figure 3a). See Table I for
the proper vent outlet size. For low silhouette vent
terminations, see Figure 3b. Draft controls are not
normally required, although they may be used on
installations where a natural draft stack is used or on
multiple boiler installations with a common stack. The
boiler is provided with a breeching damper, which
should be adjusted to maintain a positive pressure of
0.1” W.C. in the vent connector box during burner high
fire operation (see breeching pressure sensing port in
Figure 1).
accommodate proper combustion.
For commercial and industrial equipment, permanent
facilities for supplying an ample amount of outside air
shall be provided in accordance with the following.
For boiler rooms adjacent to outside walls, and where
combustion air is provided by natural ventilation from
the outside, there shall be a permanent air supply inlet
having a total free area of not less than 1 sq. inch per
4,000 Btu per hr. (35 sq. inch per gallon per hour)
(5.5 cm2 per kw.) of total input rating of the burner or
burners and in no case less than 35 sq. inch (0.425m2).
For boiler rooms not adjacent to outside walls, the
combustion air shall be supplied in a manner acceptable
to the authority having jurisdiction.
1. In the absence of local requirements, the confined
space shall be provided with two permanent
openings, one in or near the top of the room and one
near the bottom. The openings shall communicate
by means of ducts, with the outdoors or to such
spaces (crawl or attic) that communicate with the
outdoors.
a. Where communicating by means of vertical
ducts, each opening shall have a free area of not
less than 1 sq. inch per 4,000 Btuh (35 sq. inch
per gph) (5.5 cm2 per kw) of total input rating of
all appliances in the enclosure.
Figure 3a: Typical Arrangement for Stub Vent
11
If the venting system is designed for positive or forced
draft venting, the boiler, vent connector and stack will
operate under positive pressure. Gas tight vent systems
designed for pressure systems must be used to prevent
flue by-product leakage. The vent height is usually
limited to prevent negative draft, typically three (3)
feet above the roof line (see Figure 3a). The damper
shall be adjusted to maintain a positive pressure of 0.1”
W.C. in the vent connector box during burner high fire
operation (see breeching pressure sensing port in Figure
1).
If the venting system is designed for negative pressure
(natural draft), the boiler still operates with positive
pressure in the chamber and up to the fixed damper on
the flue collar. However, if the venting system is larger
than what is required, the stack will provide a surplus
draft (or negative pressure) that may require the use of
a barometric damper to maintain the positive 0.1” W.C.
pressure at the flue outlet. Multiple forced draft boiler
stacks should always be designed as negative to ensure
the products of combustion do not exit a boiler that is
not firing.
WARNING
Venting Instructions are recommendations only. Consult a venting expert on the design of
a specific vent system for your application. The ASHRAE Venting Guide and The National
Fuel Gas Code, NFPA 54 should be considered in all venting systems.
Conventional vent material may not be suitable for the application. Flue gases can leak
carbon monoxide from the joints on these materials and can result in severe personal injury
or death.
Installations having long horizontal runs or an excessive amount of tees or elbows will
restrict the flow of combustion gases and can result in condensation, flue gas leakage of
carbon monoxide, resulting in severe personal injury or death.

SECTION II - CAST IRON BLOCK ASSEMBLY
ENSURE THAT THE ADHESIVE DOES
NOT COME IN CONTACT WITH THE
NIPPLES OR NIPPLE PORTS.
CAUTION
Boiler sections must be drawn-up on
perfectly level surface or improper
assembly may result.
e. Clean nipples and nipple ports thoroughly with
a de-greasing solvent. Use the Loctite #592
supplied to lubricate the nipples and nipple
ports. Apply the lubricant to the nipples and
nipple ports, then use a brush to disperse it
evenly around the nipples and the nipple ports.
Use approximately 25 ml of Loctite #592 per
flueway [(1) 7” and (2) 3” nipples and their (6)
corresponding nipple ports].
A. FIELD ASSEMBLED SECTIONS — If the boiler
was ordered to be field assembled, follow the assembly
procedure outlined on the following pages.
1. ASSEMBLY OF SECTIONS (MANUAL DRAW-
UP)
These sections are designed to be drawn together,
one section at a time, using the 9¾” long draw-up
rods (provided) and ordinary hand tools.
f. Drive nipples squarely into section using
block of wood and hammer, or preferably,
an aluminum head hammer. (Crown offers a
Polyethylene Block for setting the nipples, part
number 330010). Place block over entire nipple
edge and hit the wood with the hammer.
Tools required:
(1) ¾” Drive Ratchet
(1) 1-1/16” Socket
(1) 1-1/16” Combination or Open End Wrench
(1) Container of grease, oil or other appropriate
lubricant.
CAUTION
When assembling sections without
hydraulic draw-up equipment, never
assemble more than one section at a time.
a. Place the rear section in its approximate final
position, as outlined in Section I, and support it
with a suitable prop and wedges. See Figure 5.
b. On size 24-03 only— Open target wall carton,
apply Silastic to back of target wall and secure
target wall to rear section.
c. Clean the groove in the ground joint along the
edge of the section with the wire brush.
d. Open the Boiler Assembly Carton(s) and remove
the bottle of adhesive. Using the dauber supplied
in the bottle, apply the adhesive to the groove.
Be sure to use enough adhesive to sufficiently
coat the entire groove surface. If so desired,
a multi-purpose spray adhesive (supplied by
others) may be used instead. HOWEVER,
GREAT CARE MUST BE TAKEN TO
Figure 5: Positioning of Back Section
13
WARNING
Nipples must be driven in evenly and to
the proper depth to assure tight joints.
Most nipple leaks are caused by tilted
or cocked nipples.
DO NOT use steel/iron head hammer to
drive nipples without using a wood
block. Nipple damage may result.
g. A special nipple setting gauge is provided for
the nipples. Gauge nipple in both directions to
insure that it is driven to the proper depth into
the nipple opening (nipple port). Cut-out in
gauge must rest on nipple, with legs of gauge
touching finished face of section, when nipple is
properly driven. See Figure 6.
h. Remove a 96” length of fiberglass rope from the
assembly carton. Starting with the area around
the upper 7” nipple port, firmly press the rope
into the groove, so that the adhesive holds it in
place. (If more than 25 minutes have passed
since the adhesive was applied, it may be
necessary to reapply.) Continue to affix the
rope to the groove in this fashion around the
perimeter of the section. Make sure that the rope
does not droop or hang outside of the groove.
When the end of the groove is reached, cut off
the excess rope. Push the length of excess rope
into the groove at the top corner of the section
face (opposite of the 7” nipple port.) Cut off and
discard any remaining rope after groove is filled.
See Figure 7.
Figure 6: Nipple Gauge
WARNING
Sections must be drawn-up tight
immediately after properly applying
sealant for best results. Although
sections may be joined within two (2)
hours of applying sealant, humidity and
temperature affect cure time. If a "thick
skin" has been formed on the sealant
bead, remove and re-apply sealant.
Sealant must be properly applied to
ALL grooves. Failure to properly seal
the boiler joints will result in
combustion gas leaks through the joint.
DO NOT operate boiler with
combustion gas leaks.

i. From the “Section Arrangement” chart, select
the next section according to the “Identification
Code” at the top of the chart. See Figure 8. Use
a wire brush to clean the groove in the face of
(crowbar) under the center of the section and lift
the nipple port onto the upper nipple.
k. Drive section in place with a heavy block of
wood, striking blows as squarely as possible over

NOTICE
l. The large draw-up rod lugs with dual holes
are cast in the four (4) corners of each casting.
Starting with the upper holes, install four
(4) 5/8” x 9¾” long draw-up rods along with
washers and nuts (see Figure 9).
The sections must be assembled according
to the arrangement shown to ensure proper
operation, proper assembly of canopy,
jacket and alignment of piping and tankless
heaters with jacket knockouts. Start with
the back section and work towards the
front.
CAUTION
To avoid damage to the draw-up rod
threads while drawing up sections, apply
oil or other lubricant to tie rod threads
while assembling sections to prevent
stripping of threads on rod and to make
assembling easier.
the next section. Then, using a cartridge of RTV
6500 or RTV 736 sealant in a caulking gun, fill
the groove in this section with silastic sealant.
Touch-up any missed spots before draw-up.
Touch-up after draw-up has no value.
j. Clean and lubricate nipple ports on next section
to be assembled and place on nipples previously
installed in rear section. To facilitate assembly,
it is advisable to enter the upper nipple first in
its port. Then enter the lower nipples in their
respective ports. If necessary, place a lifting bar

excessive, periodically place a heavy block of
wood over each nipple port and strike as squarely
as possible with several blows to relieve tension
on the draw-up rods.
n. CONTINUE ASSEMBLING SECTIONS IN
THEIR RESPECTIVE ORDER alternating
the draw-up rods from the upper to lower set
of holes in draw-up lugs. Be certain that all
sections are drawn up IRON-TO-IRON at all
three (3) nipple ports.
BE SURE TO APPLY THE SEALANT to
the groove in the ground joints between
adjacent sections as the boiler operates with a
positive pressure in the firebox and products of
combustion will escape between sections unless
the sections are properly sealed. The sealant
should be applied before each section is placed
on the assembly.
o. If a joint springs apart it must be redrawn tight
within four (4) hours of the time of application of
Silastic to that joint.
Figure 9: Draw-Up Rods (Alternating Pattern -
Manual Draw-up)
2. ASSEMBLY OF SECTIONS (HYDRAULIC DRAW-
UP)
When you start, grind surfaces between
adjoining sections should be approximately
3/8” apart. Use three (3) or four (4) passes at
tightening the four (4) draw-up rods a little at
a time so that sections are pulled up evenly.
During the last pass, pay close attention to the
silastic sealant as it squeezes when the sections
come in close contact. The silastic sealant will
continue to squeeze out wafer thin until the
sections are connected metal to metal. While
tightening the nuts, close attention should be
given to the connection area to determine that
the silastic has stopped squeezing out from
between the sections. This will give assurance
that the sections are assembled metal to metal. If
the silastic has stopped squeezing out from the
connection and the sections still do not appear
to be drawn metal to metal, measure any gaps
between the sections with a feeler gauge. A
maximum gap of .025” is acceptable. Gaps
should be measured at the outer edge of the
connection. DO NOT PUNCTURE THE
GASKET CREATED BY THE FIBERGLASS
ROPE AND SILASTIC
The entire boiler assembly may be drawn up at one
time using hydraulic draw-up equipment providing
the operation is completed within four (4) hours after
application of the sealant.
a. Repeat steps 1a through 1k under “Field
Assembled Sections (Manual Draw-Up).”
b. Continue driving sections in place (in their
respective order) until all sections are in the
assembly. Ground surfaces between adjoining
sections should be spaced 1/4” to 3/8” apart.
Spacing of more than 3/8” will limit number of
sections that can be drawn up in one unit and
could indicate cocked nipples.
WARNING
Sealant must be properly applied to ALL
grooves. Failure to properly seal the boiler
joints will result in combustion gas leaks
through to joint. DO NOT operate boiler
with combustion gas leaks. The sealant
should be applied before each section is
placed on the assembly.
SEALANT WITH THE FEELER GAUGE.
On long boiler assemblies, it may be necessary to
draw-up a partial block if the entire boiler is not
ready to be drawn-up tight within four (4) hours
of the first application of Silastic. If the block
assembly time extends overnight, the partial block
completed must be drawn-up tight before leaving
the boiler overnight. If a joint springs out, it must
be redrawn tight within four (4) hours of first
application of Silastic to the joint.
WARNING
Do not over torque draw up nuts after grind
surfaces meet.
KEEP NIPPLES ALIGNED WITH NIPPLE
PORTS. If necessary, tap edge of nipples lightly
with a blunt tool or rod to keep nipples from
cocking while sections are being drawn-up. DO
NOT DRAW UP SECTION WHEN NIPPLES
ARE COCKED. If the torque required becomes
c. Insert the three (3) ¾” draw-up rods (and
couplings, if appropriate) through the tapped holes
in the rear section extending them through the
16
tapped holes in the front section. Be sure to
screw draw-up rods into couplings far enough to
prevent stripping threads.
g. After all sections have been drawn up, but before
removing the hydraulic rams and draw-up rods,
the 9¾” long tie rods must be installed.
d. Place a 3” x 12” lg. steel channel on each end of
the upper draw-up rod and a 3” x 8½” lg. steel
channel on each end of the lower draw-up rods.
The large draw-up rod lugs with dual holes
are cast in the four (4) corners of each casting.
Starting with the upper holes in the back section,
install four (4) 5/8” x 9¾” long tie rods along
with washers and nuts. Continue installing the
tie rods alternating from the upper to lower set
of holes in draw-up lugs until front section is
secured. Be certain that all sections are drawn
up IRON TO IRON at all three nipple ports.
Refer to Figures 10 and 11 for proper placement
of channel block during assembly procedures.
Install nuts and washers on one end of the draw-
up rods and the hydraulic rams, washers and
draw-up rod clamps on the other. See Figure 13.
h. Excess length of draw-up rods must not extend
beyond front and rear section. To ensure proper
fit of jacket, adjust accordingly. Tighten all tie
rod nuts until finger tight. Then tighten them
an additional ½ turn with a wrench to prevent
section damage to thermal expansion.
CAUTION
Do not apply pressure directly on threaded
tappings on front and rear sections with
draw-up channels during assembly
procedures.
Rods should be approximately centered in
openings so that rods and couplings (when
used) do not drag on pipe thread in end
section tappings.
WARNING
READ THE STATEMENTS BELOW BEFORE
ATTEMPTING TO USE HYDRAULIC EQUIPMENT.
Figure 10: Front and Rear Section Channel
Block Positions (Hydraulic Draw-up)
* Release pressure in ram pumps before
attempting to remove clamps.
* Do not stand in line with draw-up rods at
either end when hydraulic pressure is
being applied. As a safety measure,
ends of draw-up rods should be covered
while sections are being drawn in case
rods should snap while under tension.
* Do not operate ram against draw-up
coupling.
* Do not operate pump after ram has
reached stroke limit.
e. Draw-Up Sections
Use hydraulic rams to draw up sections by
applying pressure alternately on the draw-up
rods. When rams reach stroke limit, release
pressure in ram pumps and then move clamps to
new position.
f. Continue to draw-up until all sections make
contact at the ground joints.

have been assembled, it is essential that the boiler be
hydrostatically tested before the canopy, flue cover
plates, jacket, or piping is installed.
1. Tankless Heater Installation
If boiler is ordered with tankless heaters, install
heaters with the gaskets provided. Table IV
on Page 37 gives the maximum number of heaters
permissible per assembly and the heater ratings.
5. After making certain that there are no leaks, drain
boiler and remove plugs for boiler trim and other
connections.
2. Plug all boiler tappings and fill boiler completely
with cold water.
CAUTION
DO NOT install gauge until after hydrostatic
testing the boiler. Gauge failure may result.
3. All completed boilers must satisfactorily pass the
prescribed hydrostatic test.
a. STEAM BOILERS: The assembled boiler must
be subjected to a hydrostatic test of 45 psig to 55
psig.
b. HOT WATER BOILERS: The assembled boiler
must be subjected to a hydrostatic test of not less
than 1½ times the maximum allowable working
pressure (MAWP).
WARNING
Failure to properly hydrotest all boilers at
the correct pressure may result in section
assembly failure in operation.

H. STEAM BOILERS — INSTALL STEAM TRIM
NOTICE
Items for steam trim are located in the steam trim carton
(except for the separately ordered low water cutoff and
tankless heater control). Figures 25a and 25b show the
proper tappings for each item.
Some L404 Pressure Limits contain mercury
in a sealed tube. Do not place limit in the
trash at the end of its useful life.
If this limit is replacing a limit that contains
mercury in a sealed tube, do not place your
old limit in the trash.
1. Install the gauge glass set.
2. Install the low water cut-off. Follow manufacturer’s
instructions furnished with control.
Contact your local waste management
authority for instructions regarding
recycling and the proper disposal of this
limit, or of an old limit containing mercury in
a sealed tube.
3. Install the pressure limit control as shown in Figure
25b.
4. Level the pressure limit control by carefully bending
the syphon until the control’s leveling indicator hangs
freely with its pointer directly over the index mark
inside the back of the case.

J. BURNER INSTALLATION
I. WATER BOILERS - INSTALL WATER TRIM
Refer to burner manufacturer’s installation manual
for proper installation, fuel piping, wiring, burner
adjustment, burner start-up and service instructions.
Consult Section VI of this manual for burner
specifications and burner settings.
Items for water trim are located in the water trim carton
(except for the separately ordered low water cutoff and
tankless heater control). Figures 26a and 26b show the
proper tappings for each item.
1. Install the temperature pressure gauge.
2. Install the low water cutoff (supplied by others).
Follow manufacturer’s instructions furnished with
control.
K. BOILER PIPING - HEATING APPLICATIONS
CONNECT SUPPLY AND RETURN PIPING TO
HEATING SYSTEM (see Figures 31, 32 and/or 33 for
water boilers and Figures 34 and 35 for steam boilers).
3. Install the immersion well and mount the aquastat
(limit control) onto the well.
4. Install the pressure relief valve as shown in Figure
40b. Relief valve must be installed in vertical
position.
WARNING
Failure to properly pipe boiler may result in
improper, unsafe system operation and void
manufacturer's warranty.
5. Plug extra boiler tappings.
6. Install required bottom blowoff/drain valve
(supplied by others) per minimum piping
requirements for water boilers, see Figures 31, 32
and 33.
DO NOT improperly pipe boiler.
WARNING
WARNING
Relief valve discharge piping must be piped
within six (6) inches of floor or to floor
drain to eliminate potential of severe burns.
Do not pipe in any area where freezing
could occur. Do not install any shut-off
valves, plugs or caps in discharge piping.
All steam and hot water pipes must have
clearances of at least 1/2" from all
combustible construction.
32
A by-pass containing two closely spaced tees
must be installed to de-couple the boiler loop
from the primary loop (see Figure 30). Care
must be taken to avoid dead heading the
system pump. Conversions should be reviewed
and approved by a Consulting Engineer or
other qualified professional to avoid system
deficiencies.
WARNING
A hot water boiler installed above radiation
level must be provided with a low water
cutoff device as part of the installation.
1. HOT WATER HEATING - This boiler must be
installed in strict accordance to the instructions
found in this installation manual. Deviations
from these installation instructions may void
manufacturer’s warranty. See warning below
to determine the use of the RTC. A Return
b. Primary/Secondary Piping – Boiler(s) must
be installed into a heating system that is
(are) designed as a primary/secondary piping
arrangement when the flow through the boiler
cannot be maintained to provide a 20°F - 40°F
difference between the boiler supply and
Temperature Control (RTC) may be provided to
protect the boiler from thermal shock and sustained
condensing operation. In addition, a properly
selected boiler circulator and diverting valve, along
with the return sensor, must be installed when using
the RTC. A number of typical Crown applications
have been added to the appendix (Appendix A).
Select the appropriate application before proceeding.
return. When using an RTC, the boiler loop
contains a boiler, boiler circulator and diverting
valve, along with the return temperature control
(RTC) and return sensor. The diverting valve
consists of a 3-way valve, positioned through
the use of an electronic actuator. The boiler loop
injects heat into the primary loop, provided the
temperature of the boiler return water is greater
than 135°F. If the temperature is below 135°F,
the diverting valve closes, recirculating the
boiler water until it has heated above the 135°F
minimum limit. The supply and return of the
boiler loop is connected to the primary loop
through the use of two closely spaced “Tees”, at
a maximum branch centerline distance of 4 times
the primary loop diameter (4 x D Max.) The
RTC provides a signal to the actuator based on
the absolute water temperature and the rate of
change in water temperature.
a. Parallel Piping Systems – An existing parallel
piping system may be used, provided the return
water is not below 135°F for prolonged periods
of time, and the return water temperature is
not more than 40°F less than the idle boiler
temperature (see warning below). A flow
analysis should be performed to determine the
flow through the boiler when the minimum (and
smallest) and maximum number of zones are
activated. A sufficient flow through the boiler
should be maintained to assure a maximum of
40°F difference between the boiler supply and
return.
c. Multiple Boilers – Multiple boilers are installed
the same as single boiler installations. Each
boiler loop will contain it’s own boiler circulator,
diverting valve, RTC and return sensor (see
Appendix A). Commonly available sequencers
can be used in conjunction with the Return
Temperature Control by energizing the control’s
heat demand circuit. The outdoor reset feature
of the sequencer must be used in multiple
If the conditions above cannot be met, then
parallel piping systems must be converted to a
primary/secondary arrangement, de-coupling
the system pump from the boiler loop. The
system pump cannot influence the flow through
the boiler(s) in a primary/secondary piping
arrangement. The concept must be for the boiler
loop to inject heat into a primary loop, provided
the return water into the boiler is at least 135°F.
boiler installations. The outdoor reset feature
WARNING
Return water cannot be lower than 135°F for prolonged periods of time. Operation under these
conditions will result in sustained condensing within the combustion chamber and potentially
reduce boiler longevity.
In addition, the return water cannot be introduced into the boiler if it is more than 40°F less than
the idle boiler temperature. Continued operation under these conditions may result in
premature boiler failure through thermal shock.
Example: A boiler that has been idle for some time since the last heat demand cycle may have
it's boiler water temperature reduced to 150°F. The return temperature from the next zone
activation cannot be less than 110°F.
If the above conditions exist, an RTC system must be installed to protect the boiler from
sustained condensing operation and thermal shock.
33
of the RTC cannot be used on multiple boiler
installations.
d. Boiler Circulator – The boiler circulator selection
will maintain a constant and minimum flow
through the boiler during every heat demand.
In addition, the circulator will maintain a flow
around the return sensor. The circulator must
be properly selected, based on the design
temperature between the boiler supply and
boiler return. Appendix B lists the appropriate
pumps for both 20 ºF and 40 ºF applications. A
boiler circulator must be used with and without
an RTC System for a primary/secondary piping
arrangement.
WARNING
Figure 27:
Typical Crown Boiler - Primary - Secondary Loop
System (Return Temps always Greater than 135°F.)
If the boiler circulator you have selected is
greater than 1/3 HP, an isolation relay must
be added when using the RTC.
If a 3-phase boiler circulator has been
selected than a properly sized motor starter
must be installed when using the RTC.
e. Diverting Valve – A diverting 3-way valve must
be part of the boiler loop for boiler protection to
be active when using the RTC. Only a Crown
approved valve and actuator may be used for
boiler protection. The valve sizing does change
based on the designed boiler ∆T, since the flow
rate and the pressure drop change for each. See
Appendix B for proper valve selection.
f. Glycol Antifreeze Solutions - Many systems
today use ethylene or propylene glycol antifreeze
solutions as a measure for freeze protection, as
well as a pump lubricator and corrosion inhibitor.
The properties of the glycol mixture have an
impact on valve and pump sizing. All glycol
solutions have a lower specific heat than water.
This means that the glycol solution cannot
transfer heat as well as pure water, resulting in
the need for higher flow rates. In addition, the
viscosity of the glycol solution is usually higher
than water, requiring a higher pump head for the
same given flow. Consult factory for specific
applications, pump selection and flow rate.
Figure 28:
Typical Crown Boiler Loop w/3-way Diverting
Valve, Where System Return may be Less than
135°F.
g. Nipple and Sensor - The 3 x 12 special nipple
must be installed in the lower right return
connection when looking at the rear section,
when using the RTC. Insert the return sensor
using pipe dope.

WARNING
NOTICE
A properly constructed Hartford Loop must
be installed on all gravity return steam
systems. Hartford Loop is not required on
pumped return systems.
DO NOT use the boiler circulator as an
indirect domestic hot water system
circulator.
L. BOILER PIPING, DOMESTIC HOT WATER
(DHW) APPLICATION – This section of the manual
identifies the boiler piping details when domestic hot
water is required. The two methods described for
domestic hot water production are through the use of
an indirect hot water heater or tankless coils. If a shell
and tube or plate heat exchanger is desired, follow
the instructions for the indirect water heater. Always
consult the heat exchanger manufacturer for specific
instructions and limitations.
b. Shared Boiler for DHW Production – If the
boiler(s) is(are) shared between the heating
system and the production of domestic hot
water, the diverting valve and all of the RTC
components should be used. The piping
arrangement is different between a system
that utilizes the outdoor reset feature vs. one
that doesn’t. See Appendix A for various
applications. If the outdoor reset feature of
the RTC is used, the domestic hot water piping
is part of the boiler loop, independent of the
diverting valve. Although this bypasses the
protection devices of the RTC system, the
volume and temperature conditions of a DHW
system presents no deleterious impact on
the boiler. This prevents a reset system loop
temperature from affecting DHW production.
1. Hot Water Boiler/Indirect Water Heater – The use
of indirect water heaters for domestic hot water
generation is common. Consider prioritizing the
generation of domestic hot water using an indirect
water heater (See notice below).
a. Dedicated Boiler for DHW Production – If the
boiler(s) is (are) dedicated to production of
domestic hot water production, the diverting
valve is not necessary. (see Appendix A.11 for
details) However, the RTC should be used,
along with a boiler circulation loop that includes
a boiler circulator and return sensor. The boiler
circulator and piping must be sized to circulate
at a minimum, the flow rate required for a 40 ºF
∆T application. See Appendix B for circulator
details. The circulator for the domestic hot water
system is separate from the boiler circulator.
Multiple boiler applications, utilizing an indirect
water heater arrangement, require the use of
a sequencer and connection to the indirect
water heater as a load on the secondary loop.
An outdoor reset function for multiple boiler
applications with DHW, require a DHW priority
or reset override. Consult your sequencer
manufacturer for recommendations.
2. Hot Water Boiler/Tankless Coil – Tankless coils,
mounted into the side of boilers, have been
used successfully for many years. Tankless
coils may still be used in single and multiple
boiler applications. (See Appendix A for typical
applications.)
NOTICE
When possible, domestic hot water production should utilize a dedicated boiler(s). This will
allow the other boiler(s) to be shut down and isolated during the summer months. If the boiler
load is shared between heating and domestic hot water, then one needs to determine if a hot
water priority is required. If a priority is not selected, erratic domestic hot water production may
result during the beginning and end of every heating season. Conversely, a priority for domestic
hot water production may cause a significant heating zone activation delay, in an improperly
balanced system. Parallel piping conversions may require isolation from the heating system to
prevent system flow influence on DHW performance. Consult a qualified system heating
professional to design for the proper application.

temperature. Higher temperature hot water required
by dishwashers and automatic washers is possible
by piping the hot water from the heater prior to
entering the mixing valve. An electric hot water
booster can also be used. The mixing valve should
be “trapped” by installing it below the cold water
inlet to heater to prevent lime formation in the valve.
M. CONNECT TANKLESS HEATER PIPING as
shown in Figure 38. See Table IV for Tankless Heater
Ratings.
NOTICE
The following guidelines should be followed
when piping the tankless heater:
1. Install Flow Regulator
If flow through the heater is greater than its rating,
the supply of adequate hot water may not be able to
keep up with the demand. For this reason a FLOW
REGULATOR matching the heater rating should be
installed in the cold water line to the heater. Refer
to Figure 36 for piping recommendations. Locate
the flow regulator below the inlet (cold water side)
of the heater and a minimum of 36” away from the
inlet so that the regulator is not subjected to excess
temperatures during “off” periods when it is possible
for heat to be conducted back through the supply
line. The flow regulator will limit the flow of supply
water regardless of inlet pressure variations ranging
from 20 to 125 psi.
3. Flushing of Heater
All water contains some sediment which settles
on the inside of the coil. Consequently, the heater
should be periodically backwashed. This is
accomplished by installing hose bibs as illustrated
in Figure 38 and allowing water at city pressure to
run into hose bib A, through the heater, and out hose
bib B until the discharge is clear. The tees in which
the hose bibs are located should be the same size as
heater connections to minimize pressure drop.
4. Hard Water
A water analysis is necessary to determine the
hardness of your potable water. This is applicable
to some city water and particularly to well water.
An appropriate water softener should be installed
based on the analysis and dealer’s recommendation.
This is not only beneficial to the tankless heater but
to piping and fixtures plus the many other benefits
derived from soft water.
2. Install Water Temperature Mixing Valve
Refer to Figure 38 for piping recommendations.
Adjust and maintain the mixing valve in accordance
with manufacturer’s instructions.
Installation of a mixing valve will also lengthen the
delivery of the available hot water by mixing some
WARNING
CAUTION
Install a mixing valve at the tankless heater
outlet to avoid risk of burns or scalding
due to excessively hot water at fixtures.
Do not operate the boiler when equipped
with a tankless heater unless mixing valve
is operating properly.
Do not operate tankless heater with hard
water. Tankless failure will result. Install
water softener if hard water is present.

box located above the nipple. Use grommets and
conduit to protect the leads and connection back to
the RTC controller.
N. ELECTRIC WIRING - Install all field wiring in
accordance with the National Electric Code and Local
Regulations.
Control voltage and/or 3-phase line voltage must
be supplied to the burner panel box through a fused
disconnect.
3. Knock Down Boiler Installations – The installation
instructions above must be followed for all
knockdown boilers as well. The controller is
mounted on the front jacket panel at the top right.
See Figures 41 and 42 for general component
When using the RTC, a separate fused control circuit
shall feed the control to allow the exercising of the
valve actuator and boiler circulator during dormant
boiler operation.

COMPONENTS
1. Valve Actuator – The valve actuator is mounted to
the top of the diverting valve. Mount and connect
the actuator as illustrated in Appendix C. The
electrical connections depend on valve orientation.
Use Figures 39a and 39b as a guide.
2. Return Sensor – A sensor has been included with
the Return Temperature Control. The sensor must
be mounted for proper operation. The sensor is
mounted in the 3 inch NPT x 12 inch special return
nipple. The sensor must be inserted into the ¼ NPT
connection using pipe dope. The 3” nipple must be
inserted with the sensor closest to the boiler, using
the rear lower right connection. (Orientation based
on viewing the boiler from the rear.) The sensor

the RTC back panel before mounting to the bracket.
The actual controller can and should be removed from
the back panel during the mounting process. This
will eliminate the potential for accidental damage to
the controller. The RTC back panel is mounted onto
the bracket with (4) #8-32 x ½” type F, Phillips Pan
head screws supplied with the controller. The middle
3 rear knockouts should be used before utilizing the 5
knockouts exiting the bottom of the control. Depending
on the final configuration, most of the controller
connections could be used. Typically, the return sensor,
actuator control and boiler pump exit the rear of the
controller.
Wire the RTC controller to the various components
as shown below. The “Mix” and “Outdoor” sensor
are optional and must be connected if outdoor reset
function is desired. The outdoor reset function on
this controller cannot be used in a multiple boiler
application. A boiler sequencer must be used when an
outdoor reset feature is required in a multiple boiler
application.

CAUTION
Do not operate boiler with pressure
above maximum allowable working
pressure listed on the Boiler Rating
Label.
Failure to clean the system will result in
erratic water lines and surging, and other
improper system operations.
CLEAN HEATING SYSTEM IF boiler water or
condensate return water is dirty or if erratic water lines
or surging exist after a few days of boiler operation.
Refer to step (K) for proper cleaning instructions for
steam and water boilers.
DO NOT draw water from boiler while in
use. When adding water while boiler is
in operation, do not open supply valve
fully but add water slowly.
1. STEAM BOILERS - Fill boiler to normal water
line. As shown in Figure 1, the normal water line
is 41½” from the floor or bottom of casting. At
the start of each heating season and once or twice
during the season try SAFETY VALVE to be sure it
is in working condition. To do this, fasten wire or
cord to lever of valve and pull lever — standing safe
distance away from valve.
1. PRESS RESET BUTTON on primary control and

HEATERS, set low limit operating control dial at
190°F and high limit dial 210°F. Operating control
must be a minimum of 20° below high limit setting.
Set differential at 25°.
D. ADJUST BURNER according to the Burner Manual.
1. FLAME FAILURE
a. Return Sensor - The return sensor must be
properly connected or an error message will be
displayed. Both a short and an open circuit in
the sensor circuit will cause an error message to
be displayed and the valve will be moved to a
partially open position until the error is resolved.
The Series 24 boiler controls operate the burner
automatically. If for unknown reasons the burner
ceases to fire and the reset button on the primary
control is tripped, the burner has experienced
ignition failure. Before pressing the reset button,
call your serviceman immediately.
b. Valve Actuator – During the valve actuator test
sequence, confirm that the valve travels through
90 degrees of rotation from a full closed position
to a full open position. The pointer on the shaft
must rotate from “10” to “0” respectively.
WARNING
Do not attempt to start the burner when
excess oil or gas has accumulated in the
combustion chamber, when the unit is full
of vapor, or when the combustion chamber
is very hot.
3. Adjust Setpoints – The RTC must have a number of
setpoints adjusted for proper operation. Below is
a summary, however see the RTC Installation and
Maintenance Manual for more details. To activate
the ADJUST menu, simultaneously depress and
hold the Item, and buttons. ADJUST will
appear in the upper right hand corner of the LED
display.
E. RETURN TEMPERATURE CONTROL: Initial
Set-Up and Operation – The return temperature
control (RTC) is an important part of the overall boiler
system. The primary function of the RTC is to protect
the boiler from thermal shock and sustained flue gas
condensation. The RTC monitors the temperature of
the water returning into the boiler through a return
sensor. The RTC controls the 3-way diverting valve
mounted on the supply of the boiler to prevent return
water less than 135º F from entering the boiler. The
boiler circulator provides constant and minimum flow
through the boiler during every heat demand. Prior
to the start of any boiler cycle, the diverting valve is
closed to a full by-pass condition, forcing 100% boiler
water re-circulation. The diverting valve opens and
will continue to open provided the return sensor is
satisfied. Conversely, large temperature drops will
close the diverting valve to a position as to prevent
low temperature return water. The RTC along with
the ancillary components must be properly installed
as identified in Section III, if there is any possibility
of system return water temperature less than 135°F. A
detailed description of the controller and it’s features
can be found in the RTC Installation and Maintenance
Manual.
a. ROOM - Set desired room temperature. This
will provide parallel shift to heating curve.
OUTDR DESIGN OFF
b. MIX TARGET – This represents a fixed target
supply temperature when the outdoor reset
feature in NOT selected. (OUTDR DESIGN =
OFF) Set the MIX TARGET temperature to the
designed boiler supply temperature. Example:
If the boiler loop is designed to supply hot water
to the system at 180ºF, set the MIX TARGET
to 180ºF. This is also the same as the operating
aquastat set point. The mix target is adjustable
from 60°F to 200ºF. The default setting is 180°F.
NOTE: This function is only for applications
where the mix sensor is installed.
c. MIX DSGN – Mix design temperature represents
the design heating system supply temperature
when the outdoor reset feature is selected.
(OUTDR DESIGN = ON) This represents the
design of the system loop. If unsure of the
original design temperature, set the MIX DSGN
to the same temperature as the boiler operating
aquastat, typically 180ºF. The MIX DSGN is
adjustable from 70°F to 210ºF. The default
setting is 180°F.
1. Initial Start-up - Upon initial start-up, the control
will be energized, identifying the control name and
revision on the LED display. If wired properly, the
control should be energized at all times. The RTC
circuit should be supplied from a different source
than the burner or boiler circuit. The RTC control
should be energized at all times.
d. OUTDR DSGN – The outdoor design
temperature represents the value used in the
heat loss calculations, when the outdoor reset
feature is selected. (OUTDR DESIGN = ON) If
this value is unknown, use the value found in
2. Testing – The RTC should be tested on initial start-
up, as well as during any troubleshooting exercise.

outdoor temperature rises above the WWSD
value, WWSD will be displayed. If a demand
for heat is generated when the control is in the
WWSD mode, the boiler will be disabled. The
default for the WWSD is 70ºF, but is adjustable
from 35ºF to 100ºF.

circulator purge) after a heat demand cycle. This
minimizes the amount of boiler temperature
overshoot at the end of a boiler cycle. During
the pump purge the diverting valve will
continue to operate and prevent low return water
temperatures from entering the boiler. At the
end of the pump purge period the diverting valve
will be immediately closed. The default PUMP
DELAY is set to 30 seconds.
g. MIX MAX – This represents the highest
temperature allowed as the MIX TARGET
temperature when the outdoor reset feature is
selected. (OUTDR DESIGN = ON) If the RTC
calculates a MIX TARGET higher than the MIX
MAX, the MIX TARGET will take the value of
the MIX MAX. Typically, this is set between
200ºF and 220ºF. The temperature must be set
below the lowest permissible temperature for
any system related component affected by boiler
supply water.
l. UNITS – The temperature units can be changed
to either Fahrenheit or Celsius. The default
temperature unit is Fahrenheit.
h. OPEN DELAY – This value represents the
number of seconds required for the actuator to
open through 90 degrees of rotation. Leave in
default value of 50 seconds.
4. ERROR MESSAGES – Error messages are shown
on the LED display. The function in error will be
shown as a black background label in the LED.
Most of the errors indicate an open or short circuit,
connected to the RTC. The RTC Installation and
Maintenance Manual identifies common errors.
Cycle through the error messages and repair as
required.
i. BOIL MIN – This is the minimum boiler return
temperature allowed. The minimum value has
been set to 135ºF, adjustable to as high as 230ºF.
The RTC will control the diverting valve while
maintaining a minimum BOIL MIN temperature.
Setting should remain at 135ºF unless a higher
minimum boiler temperature is required.
a. Return Sensor Error – If the return water
temperature sensor has been damaged or omitted,
the BOIL item will be displayed as either a
“short” or “open” circuit. This will force the
mixing device (i.e. 3-way valve) to run at a
fixed 30% open position. The system may not
receive enough heat nor will it be fully protected,
however a significant change will be obvious to
occupants and/or operators.
j. BOIL MIN DELAY – This represents the time
(in seconds) required for warm-up during an
initial cold start. This prevents the counter
from including cold start warm up time in the
total boiler operation time below 135ºF. This
grace period is provided for every heat demand
cycle until 135ºF has been sensed at the return
sensor. Once the return sensor has sensed a
return temperature reading of 135ºF, after the
heat demand cycle has initiated, the grace period
is terminated. The warm up time includes a 90
seconds of pre-purge time. Use the values in
Table V for the correct application.
b. Operation Below Minimum – If the return sensor
has been damaged or omitted, and the return
water is allowed to return to the boiler below
135ºF, the BOIL MIN field will be displayed
along with ERR. The failure must be identified
and repaired immediately since the boiler
has been operating in a condition that fosters
premature boiler failure.
k. PUMP DELAY – Pump delay represents the
time (in seconds) for pump purge (boiler

is supplied to the control.
high fire rate. The unit will continue to fire at the high
fire rate until the boiler high fire modulating limit is
reached.
Many modulation controls require the entry of a burner
off or low fire setting. The burner will modulate
between the high fire and low fire rate based on the
absolute boiler temperature as well as the rate of change
in boiler temperature.
F. DIVERTING VALVE ACTUATOR - A 3-way
diverting valve is used to control the temperature of
the water returning to the boiler. Proper operation
is required to protect the boiler from thermal shock
and sustained condensate production. Confirm the
operation of the valve as shown above. See Figures 39a
and 39b.
If using a T991 Proportional Control or a similar
modulating device in a traditional hydronic system,
the minimum setting shall be the sum of the designed
heating system return temperature + boiler ∆T + 10°F.
G. BOILER OPERATING AQUASTAT – The operating
aquastat, L4006A, can be found on the front of the
boiler, to the right of the temperature/pressure gauge.
The operating aquastat should be set to the designed
supply temperature, typically 180ºF. The operating
aquastat set point, the RTC MIX TARGET or the RTC
MIX DESGN, should be set to the same value for
20°F ∆T applications. In 40°F ∆T applications, the
operating aquastat (L4006A) must be set 20°F higher
than the MIX TARGET and MIX DESIGN . Under
no circumstances should the operating aquastat be set
below 135ºF plus (+) the designed boiler temperature
drop, ∆T (ºF).
Example: System Supply 180°F
System Return 160°F
System ∆T
Boiler ∆T
20°F
40°F
Min. Setting = 160°F + 40°F + 10°F
= 210°F
*NOTE: A higher flow through the boiler, achieving
a 20°F ∆T would lower the minimum to 190°F.
If using the same control in a system where the
designed return is less than 135°F, then the minimum
becomes:
Example: if the flow rate through the boiler
corresponds to a 20ºF ∆T design, the operating
aquastat cannot be set lower than 135 + 20 = 155ºF.
135°F + Boiler ∆T + 10°F
In reality, most systems are designed for a 180ºF supply
water and 160ºF return water. The accuracy of the
operating aquastat is less than the RTC accuracy, often
requiring the operating aquastat temperature to be
bumped upward a few degrees.
J. TEST CONTROLS
WARNING
Before installation of the boiler is
considered complete, the operation of the
boiler controls should be checked,
particularly the low water cutoff and the
high limit control.
H. BOILER HIGH LIMIT AQUASTAT – If used, the
high limit aquastat, L4006E, can be found on the front
of the boiler, to the left of the temperature/pressure
gauge. The high limit aquastat can be identified with a
red manual reset button. Ideally, the high limit aquastat
should be set 10 -15°F above the RTC MIX MAX
setting, when the outdoor reset feature is selected.
Typically, this is set between 200ºF and 220ºF. The
temperature must be set below the lowest permissible
temperature for any system related component affected
by boiler supply water. Under no circumstances can the
high limit aquastat be set higher than 250ºF.
All controls must be checked prior to putting the boiler
in service.
1. CHECK OPERATING CONTROL OPERATION.
Raise and lower operating control setting as required
to start and stop burner.
2. CHECK OPERATION OF HIGH LIMIT
CONTROL —
Jumper Operating Control Terminals. Allow burner
to operate until shutdown by limit. Installation is
not considered complete until this check has been
made. REMOVE JUMPER.
I. BOILER MODULATING CONTROL – Various
controls are used to modulate burner firing rates.
No attempt will be made to cover every possibility,
however a general outline will be given.
3. CHECK LOW WATER CUTOFF control with water
level at normal water line (see Figure 1). Raise
operating control setting to allow burner to operate.
Open boiler drain to allow water level to drop to
bottom of sight glass until burner operation is shut
down by low water cutoff.
Most modulation controls require the entry of a
boiler temperature identifying boiler operation at the
maximum firing rate. A boiler operating temperature
below that will also generate a full firing rate. When a
boiler heat demand is generated the unit will initiate at
either a low or high fire rate and quickly ramp up to the

from the surface blowoff pipe. Continue this
slow boiling and trickle of overflow for several
hours until the water coming from the overflow
is clear.
CAUTION
Probe and float type low water cutoff
devices require annual inspection and
maintenance.
d. Stop burner and drain boiler in a manner and to
a location that hot water can be discharged with
safety.
4. CHECK OPERATING CONTROL on boiler
equipped with tankless heaters. With burner off,
draw hot water until burner starts, then turn off hot
water and check burner shutdown.
e. Refill boiler to normal water line. If water in
gauge glass does not appear to be clear, repeat
steps (a. thru e.), and boil out the boiler for a
longer time.
5. CHECK RTC CONTROL - see the Test Section in
the RTC Installation and Maintenance Manual.

environmental regulations.
4. If unsteady water line, foaming or priming persist,
install gate valve in Hartford Loop and drain valves
in return main and at boiler and proceed as follows:
WARNING
a. Connect hoses from drain cocks to floor drain.
Close gate valve in Hartford Loop and open
drain cock in return main. Fill boiler to normal
water level, turn on burner and operate boiler
at this water level for at least 30 minutes after
the condensate begins to run hot, then turn off
burner.
Chemicals used in treating boiler water are
toxic and/or harmful. Always use protective
clothing and equipment when working
with/near chemicals. Contact local
authorities to determine if treated boiler
water can be discharged into local waste
water system.
Close all radiator valves. Remove all supply
main air valves and plug the openings in supply
main.
1. Oil, greases & sediments which accumulate in a
new boiler and piping must be removed in order
to prevent an unsteady water line and carry over
of the water into the supply main above boiler.
Operate the boiler with steam in the entire system
for a few days allowing the condensate to return
to the boiler. If the condensate can temporarily be
wasted, operate boiler only for the length of time
it takes for condensate to run clear. If the latter
cannot be achieved or if the condensate is returned
to the boiler, boil out the boiler using the SURFACE
BLOWOFF connection. See Figure 40a.
b. Draw about 5 gallons of hot water from boiler
into a container and dissolve into it appropriate
amount of a recommended boilout compound.
Remove surface blowoff plug and pour this
solution into boiler, then reinstall plug.
c. Turn on burner and keep operating while feeding
water to boiler slowly. This will raise water level
in boiler slowly so that water will be boiling hot
and will rise slowly into supply main and back
through return main, flowing from drain hose
at about 180°F. Continue until water runs clear
from drain hose for at least 30 minutes.
a. Drain boiler until water is just visible in gauge
glass. Run temporarily 1½” pipe line from the
surface blowoff connection to an open drain or
some other location where hot water may be
discharged safely. Do not install valve in this
line.
d. Stop feeding water to boiler but continue
operating burner until excess water in boiler
flows out through supply main and water lowers
(by steaming) until it reaches normal level in
boiler. Turn off burner. Drain boiler. Open all
radiator valves. Reinstall all supply main air
valves. Open gate valve in Hartford Loop.
b. Add an appropriate amount of recommended
boilout compounds.
c. Start burner and operate sufficiently to boil
the water without producing steam pressure.
Boil for about 5 hours. Open boiler feed pipe
e. When boiler has cooled down sufficiently (crown
sheet of sections are not too hot to touch), close
51
the drain cocks at boiler and in return main and
feed water slowly up to normal level in boiler.
Turn on burner and allow boiler to steam for
10 minutes then turn off burner. Draw off one
quart of water from bottom gauge glass fitting
and discard. Draw off another quart sample and
if this sample is not clear, repeat the cycle of
draining the boiler and return main and refilling
the boiler until sample is clear.
2. Boiling Out of Boiler and System. The oil and
grease which accumulate in a new hot water boiler
can be washed out in the following manner.
a. Remove safety relief valve using extreme care to
avoid damaging it.
b. Add an appropriate amount of recommended
boilout compound.
c. Reinstall safety relief valve.
d. Fill the entire system with water.
e. Start firing the boiler.
f. If the boiler water becomes dirty again at a later
date due to additional sediment loosened up in
the piping, close gate valve in Hartford Loop,
open drain cock in return main, turn on burner
and allow condensate to flow to drain until it has
run clear for at least 30 minutes while feeding
water to boiler so as to maintain normal water
level. Turn off burner, drain boiler, open gate
valve in Hartford Loop, then repeat step (1)
above.
f. Circulate the water through the entire system.
g. Vent the system, including the radiation.
h. Allow boiler water to reach operating
temperature, if possible.
i. Continue to circulate the water for a few hours.
j. Stop firing the boiler.
k. Drain the system in a manner and to a location
that hot water can be discharged with safety.
5. Make pH or Alkalinity Test.
l. Remove plugs from all available returns and
wash the water side of the boiler as thoroughly as
possible, using a high-pressure water stream.
After boiler and system have been cleaned and
refilled as previously described, test the pH of the
water in the system. This can easily be done by
drawing a small sample of boiler water and testing
hydrion paper which is used in the same manner
as litmus paper, except it gives specific readings.
A color chart on the side of the small hydrion
dispenser gives the reading in pH. Hydrion paper
is inexpensive and obtainable from any chemical
supply house or through your local druggist. The
pH should be higher than 7, but lower than 11. Add
some appropriate water treatment chemicals, if
necessary to bring the pH within the specified range.
m. Refill the system with fresh water.
3. Add appropriate boiler water treatment compounds
as recommended by your local qualified water
treatment company.

L. BOILER AND SYSTEM CLEANING - WATER
BOILERS
1. Filling of Boiler and System --- General --- In a hot
water heating system, the boiler and entire system
(other than the expansion tank) must be full of water
for satisfactory operation. Water should be added to
the system until the boiler pressure gauge registers
normal system design operating pressure. To insure
that the system is full, water should come out of all
air vents when opened.
5. Boiler is now ready to be put into service.

M. FREQUENT WATER ADDITION
N. OXYGEN CORROSION:
WARNING
IMPORTANT
Oxygen contamination of the boiler water
will cause corrosion of iron and steel boiler
components, and can lead to boiler failure.
Crown's standard warranty does not cover
problems caused by oxygen contamination
of boiler water or scale (lime) build-up
caused by frequent addition of water.
IF, DURING NORMAL OPERATION, IT IS
NECESSARY TO ADD MORE WATER PER
MONTH THAN INDICATED BELOW, CONSULT
A QUALIFIED SERVICE TECHNICIAN TO
CHECK YOUR SYSTEM FOR LEAKS.
EXCESSIVE WATER ADDITION:
(Gal/Month)
There are many possible causes of oxygen
contamination such as:

a. Addition of excessive make-up water as a result
of system leaks.
38½
b. Absorption through open tanks and fittings.
c. Oxygen permeable materials in the distribution
system.
A leaky system will increase the volume of make-up
water supplied to the boiler which can significantly
shorten the life of the boiler. Entrained in make-up
water are dissolved minerals and oxygen. When the
fresh, cool make-up water is heated in the boiler, the
minerals fall out as sediment and the oxygen escapes
as a gas. Both can result in reduced boiler life. The
accumulation of sediment can eventually isolate
the water from contacting the cast iron. When this
happens the cast iron in that area gets extremely hot
and eventually cracks. The presence of free oxygen
in the boiler creates a corrosive atmosphere which, if
the concentration becomes high enough, can corrode
the cast iron through from the inside. Since neither of
these failure types are the result of a casting defect, the
warranty does not apply. The maintenance of system
integrity is the best method to prevent these types of
failure.
In order to insure long product life, oxygen sources
must be eliminated. This can be accomplished by
taking the following measures:
a. Repairing system leaks to eliminate the need for
addition of make-up water.
b. Eliminating open tanks from the system.
c. Eliminating and/or repairing fittings which allow
oxygen absorption.
d. Use of non-permeable materials in the
distribution system.
e. Consult your local water treatment specialist for
specific recommendations.

SECTION V - SERVICE INSTRUCTIONS
DANGER
This boiler uses flammable gas, high voltage electricity, moving parts, and very hot water
under high pressure. Assure that all gas and electric power supplies are off and that the
water temperature is cool before attempting any disassembly or service.
More than one gas shut-off valve and electrical disconnect switch are used on the boiler.
Assure that all gas valves and electrical disconnect switches are off before attempting any
disassembly or service.
Do not attempt any service work if gas is present in the air in the vicinity of the boiler.
Never modify, remove or tamper with any control device.
WARNING
This boiler must only be serviced and repaired by skilled and experienced service
technicians.
If any controls are replaced, they must be replaced with identical models.
Read, understand and follow all the instructions and warnings contained in all the sections
of this manual.
If any electrical wires are disconnected during service, clearly label the wires and assure
that the wires are reconnected properly.
NEVER operate boiler without all sight glasses and brackets in place and securely fastened
and sealed. Very HOT combustion gas may cause burn injury.
Read, understand and follow all the instructions and warnings contained in ALL of the
component instruction manuals.
Assure that all safety and operating controls and components are operating properly before
placing the boiler back in service.
2. CLEAN THE BOILER FLUEWAYS
A. GENERAL — Inspection should be conducted
annually. Service as frequently as specified in
a. Remove the jacket left side panels.
paragraphs below. While service or maintenance is
being done, electrical power to the boiler must be “off”.
b. Loosen nuts securing the flue cleanout plates
and remove the plates. The insulation should
be removed with the plates taking care not to
damage the insulation.
B. CLEAN THE BOILER HEATING
SURFACES & FLUE at least once each year,
preferably at the end of the heating season.
c. Using a 1¼” diameter wire or fibre bristle brush
(36” handle) clean the flueways. Start at the top
of each flueway opening and work down the pin
rows using two or three horizontal strokes per
row for best results.
1. CLEAN THE VENT SYSTEM — Vent system
should be checked annually for:
a. Obstructions.
b. Accumulations of soot.
3. CLEAN TOP OF BOILER SECTIONS
c. Deterioration of vent pipe or vent accessories
due to condensation or other reasons.
Remove the jacket top panel. Remove the top flue
canopy cover or outlet assembly. Use a flashlight to
inspect the upper portion of the flueways and top of
castings for soot and debris. Heavy accumulations
over 1/16” thick must be removed. Remove the
canopy being careful not to damage the cerafelt
strips. Brush and vacuum the upper flueways and
tops of castings.
d. Proper support — no sags, particularly in
horizontal runs.
e. Tightness of joints.
f. Remove the smoke pipe. Remove all
accumulations of soot with wire brush and
vacuum. Remove all obstructions. Replace all
deteriorated parts and support properly. Seal all
joints.
4. CLEAN THE FIREBOX
a. Disconnect fuel line(s) and remove burner and
burner mounting plate.
54
b. Using wire or fibre bristle brush clean crown of
boiler and inside of water legs.
DANGER
c. Inspect target wall (903A only) for damage or
deterioration. If target wall is damaged, replace.
Assure that the boiler is at zero pressure
before removing the LWCO probe. Do not
rely on the pressure gauge to indicate that
the boiler is at zero pressure. Open the
safety valve to relieve all internal pressure
prior to proceeding. Safety valve discharge
piping must be piped such that the potential
for burns is eliminated.
5. REASSEMBLE BOILER
CAUTION
Do not start the burner unless canopy,
smokepipe, burner mounting plate and all
flue plates are secured in place.
e. Unscrew the probe from the boiler tapping.
a. If removed, install the canopy taking care to
align the cerafelt strips. If strips are damaged
replace as needed.
f. Inspect that portion of the probe that is exposed
to the boiler water for a scale or sediment
buildup.
b. Reinstall burner mounting plate to front section
making sure 3/16” diameter rope gasket is in
place and forms gas tight seal. If gasket is
damaged, replace.
g. Light deposits may be removed by wiping the
probe with a damp cloth. Wiping the probe
with a cloth soaked in vinegar will remove more
tenacious lime deposits. The most stubborn
deposits may be removed from the probe by
using a diluted amount (three 3 parts of water to
one (1) part) of phosphoric acid (H2PO4).
c. Bolt burner to burner mounting plate. Inspect
gasket to assure adequate seal. Replace if
damaged. Connect oil line(s) and/or gas line(s).
d. Reinstall flue plates making sure gasket on each
plate is in place and forms gas tight seal. If
damaged, all edges of the cleanout plates should
be sealed with Silastic sealant when reinstalled
until insulation can be replaced.
WARNING
Exercise caution when handling phosphoric
acid and follow the instructions on
container label. Always use protective
clothing and equipment when working
with/near chemicals.
e. If removed, reinstall jacket top.
f. Reinstall left side panels.
g. Reinstall smokepipe.
C. MAINTENANCE OF LOW WATER CUTOFF
DEVICES.
h. Wire brushing of the probe is not recommended
as the soft platinum guard ring sandwiched
between the ceramic insulators may be damaged.
Care must be taken not to damage this ring in
any way or the useful life of the probe may be
shortened.
NOTICE
Probe and float type low water cutoff
devices require annual inspection and
maintenance.
i. Clean the pipe threads of the probe to remove
old, hardened pipe dope and other foreign matter.
1. PROBE TYPE LOW WATER CUTOFF
Although these devices are solid state in their
operation, the probe is exposed to possible
contamination in the boiler water and subject to
fouling.
j. Apply a moderate amount of good quality pipe
dope to the pipe threads on the probe. Leaving
the two end threads bare. Do not use PTFE
(Teflon) tape.
It is important to physically remove the probe from
the boiler tapping annually and inspect that probe
for accumulation of scale or sediment.
k. Screw the probe into the boiler tapping.
l. Mount the low water cutoff control on the probe.
m. Reconnect the control to probe wiring.
n. Fill the boiler to its normal waterline.
Follow these steps to inspect, clean and/or replace
the probe:
a. Turn off electric service to the boiler.
o. Add boiler water treatment compound as needed.
p. Restore electric service to the boiler.
b. Drain boiler water to a level below the tapping
for the probe.
q. Fire burner to bring the water in the boiler to a
boil to drive off free oxygen.
c. Disconnect wiring connections between the low
water cutoff control and the probe.
r. BEFORE RETURNING BOILER TO
SERVICE Follow the low water cutoff checkout
procedure on Pages 46 and 47.
d. Dismount the low water cutoff control from the
probe.
55
3. If much water is added to system, it is advisable to
heat system to a high temperature and vent again.
This will make less venting necessary during the
winter.
2. FLOAT TYPE LOW WATER CUTOFF
During the heating season, if an external low water
cutoff is on the boiler, the blow off valve should
be opened once a month (use greater frequency
where conditions warrant) to flush out the sediment
chamber so the device will be free to function
properly.
4. Where an expansion tank is used, make sure that
neither the tank nor its drain pipe is exposed to
freezing temperatures. Never place valves in piping
leading to or from expansion tank.
Low water cutoffs and water feeders should be
dismantled annually by qualified personnel, to the
extent necessary to insure freedom from obstructions
and proper functioning of the working parts. Inspect
connecting lines to boiler for accumulation of
mud, scale, etc., and clean as required. Examine
all visible wiring for brittle or worn insulation and
make sure electrical contacts are clean and that they
function properly. Give special attention to solder
joints on bellows and float when this type of control
is used. Check float for evidence of collapse and
check mercury bulb (where applicable) for mercury
separation or discoloration. DO NOT ATTEMPT
TO REPAIR MECHANISMS IN THE FIELD.
Complete replacement mechanisms, including
necessary gaskets and installation instructions, are
available from the manufacturer.
5. Boiler and system cleaning will help assure
trouble free operation. See Section IV - Operating
Instructions, Steps K or L for procedure.
G. ATTENTION TO BOILER WHILE NOT IN
OPERATION
WARNING
If boiler is not used during winter time, it
must be fully drained to prevent freeze
damage.
1. Spray inside surfaces with light lubricating or
crankcase oil using gun with extended stem so as to
reach all corners.
2. With steam boilers, at end of season add sufficient
water to fill boiler to top of water column and leave
it that way until fall when water should be drained
again to proper level. If at this time boiler water is
dirty, drain water, flush out boiler, and refill with
clean water to prescribed water level.
D. CHECK BURNER AND CONTROLS at least once
a year. See Section IV - Operating Instructions, Step J
for control checks. See Burner Manual for burner tests
and adjustments.
E. LUBRICATE BOILER COMPONENTS according
to manufacturer’s instructions. Generally, this involves
the oil burner and circulator. This includes the type of
lubricant to use, frequency of lubrication, and points to
lubricate.
3. Always keep the manual fuel supply valve shut off
when the burner is shut down for an extended period
of time.
4. To recondition the heating system in the fall season
after a prolonged shut down, follow the instructions
outlined in Section IV - Operating Instructions,
Steps B through L.
F. GENERAL MAINTENANCE CONSIDERATIONS
1. Keep radiators and convectors clean.
2. If a hot water radiator is hot at the bottom but not at
the top, it indicates that air has accumulated inside
and should be vented. To vent radiator, hold small
cup under air vent (located near top of radiator),
open vent until water escapes and then close.

APPENDIX C – VALVE AND ACTUATOR MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS
Application
For use with ESBE ½” to 6” 3-Way and 4-Way rotary valves for mixing and diverting applications. Use with 24Vac 3-point “floating” signal controller.
Mounting the Motor
1. Place drive sleeve onto shaft and secure with bolt . Check that the valve is in mid-position (sleeve pointer set to position 5 on scale plate).
2. Mount threaded stud in one of the threaded holes. For 1½” and 2" valves replace one of the cover bolts with the threaded rod. Tighten
mounting piece onto threaded rod.
3. Mount handle over drive sleeve set pointer to 5 on the scale plate. Handle must be mounted opposite to the pointer of the drive sleeve.
4. Mount motor onto sleeve so that the mounting piece m fits into the locking piece o. Push locking piece to lock in place. Labels are supplied
to indicate the direction of rotation. Determine the direction of rotation and mount the correct label under the plastic front cover of motor.
Manual Operation
Adjusting Cams
Always disconnect power before operating by hand. Note
position of drive sleeve pointer to be returned to. Depress
the gray button, “A”, on the side to release
the handle. The valve can now be operated
manually. Never manually operate when
gears are engaged.
The position of the cams is changed by fitting a screw-
driver in the slot and moving the cam to the desired
position.The topmost cam operates the auxiliary
switch (upper switch – NOT USED). The middle and
lower cams determine the degree of rotation (30° to
180°). To access, remove the actuator cover to gain
access to the middle and lower cams.The valve rota-
tion must be set before operation can begin. Adjust
the cam so that each end switch is made when the
valve is fully open (pointer towards “0”) and when the
valve is fully closed (pointer towards “10”). Depress
the “Test” switch on the RTC control to test for proper valve operation.
