INSTALLATION - HIGH ALTITUDE ACCESSORY KIT
If the heating value of the gas being supplied is different than
the values shown in Tables 16.1 and 16.2, use the following
equation to determine the appropriate manifold pressure for the
altitude and gas heating value being supplied.
Equation 17.1 - Manifold Pressure for Derated Gas
WHERE:
MPACT =
Manifold Pressure (in. W.C.) at Altitude –
Manifold pressure setting for the heater
being installed
BTUTBL =
BTU/ft
3
Content of Gas –
Obtained from Tables 16.1 or 16.2
(whichever is applicable)
BTUACT =
BTU/ft
3
Content of Gas –
Obtained from the local utility company
MPSL = Manifold Pressure (in. W.C.), at Sea Level –
Use 3.5" W.C. for natural gas and 10.0" W.C. for
propane gas
NOTE: Only the primary manifold pressure should be adjusted
on units equipped with 2-stage or modulating gas controls. No
adjustments to the low fire manifold pressure are necessary on
these units.
