4.2.1 Site preparation
Ensure that the site selected for the installation has the following:
- Access to AC input power of 120 VAC for ABS 1500, ABS 2000 and ABS 2500.
- Access to AC input power of 230 VAC 3 phase for two models ABS 3000 and ABS 4000
- Access to a natural gas line at a minimum gas line pressure of 3.5 inch W.C. to a maximum of 14 W.C.
- Vent lengths as per gure # 5
- Combustion air and dilution are as per local codes.
- Access for a drain for the condensation. See section 4.7
- All gas piping, water piping and electrical conduit or cable must be arranged in a manner that does not interfere
with the removals of any panels or limit the access to service or maintenance of the unit.
- For multiple boiler installations, it is critical to plan the positioning of each unit in advance. Adequate space must
be allowed for pre connections, and future service and maintenance requirements. All piping must include ample
provisions for thermal expansion.
- If lead lag conrmations is to be utilized, it is important to identify the lead boiler and place this boiler in the area
that allows the control to be easy access for both operator and service personnel.
WARNING
Always keep the area free and clear of all combustible materials and ammable vapors or liquids’. Ensure there are
no ammable items stored in the vicinity of the boiler.
4.2.2 Hoisting the boiler
The boiler is designed to be hoist if required using two 1 inch diameter rods, 48 inches long that can be placed through
the frame on either side of the fork lift slots. Ensure the lifting bars are properly placed through these holes and a sling
is used that has a minimum rating of 6000 lbs per sling. One sling must be used on each bar. Ensure no personnel
stands underneath the boiler as it is hoisted.
