1.0 INTRODUCTION

The Lochinvar EcoKnight™ range is a floor standing gas fired condensing boiler. The equipment comprises
a stainless steel radial burner assembly and a heat exchanger that permits fully condensing operation.

The burner is initiated by a full electronic ignition sequence control that incorporates a spark ignition and a
flame rectification device for supervision of the flame.

The output from the boiler is regulated by a variable speed combustion fan and gas/air ratio controls to
maintain the correct combustion at all levels of modulation. This configuration allows modulation down to
20% of the rated output.

For the correct operation of the boiler, it is essential that a suitably sized pump is utilised to maintain a
constant water flow rate through the heat exchanger.

This equipment is intended for use on Group H Natural Gas (2
nd
Family) and LPG propane (3
rd
Family). The
information relating to propane firing is to be found in Section 14: LPG FUEL . This equipment MUST NOT
use gas other than that for which it has been designed and adjusted.
