C. Pressure test.
See Table 33 for Alpine Min./Max.
Pressure Ratings. The boiler and its gas connection
must be leak tested before placing boiler in operation.
1. Protect boiler gas control valve.
For all testing
over ½ psig (3.4 kPa), boiler and its individual
shutoff valve must be disconnected from gas supply
piping. For testing at ½ psig (3.4 kPa) or less, isolate
boiler from gas supply piping by closing boiler’s
individual manual shutoff valve.
2. Locate leaks
using approved combustible gas non-
corrosive leak detector solution.
DangEr
Explosion Hazard. Do not use matches, candles,
open flames or other ignition source to check for
leaks.
D. Alpine Models ALP500C, ALP600C,
ALP700C, ALP800C
(if equipped with optional
low and high gas pressure switches)
1. Verify low and high gas pressure switch
settings
are within the range shown in kit
instructions. The switches are preset for natural gas.
For LP gas, the low gas pressure switch setting must
be adjusted.
2. The low gas pressure switch
must be reset after
the boiler is piped to the gas supply and before it is
fired.
3. For the low and high gas pressure switches
proper operation, the boiler inlet gas pressure must
be within the range shown in Table 33.
4. The gas pressure can be measured
at the gas
valve inlet pressure port. Refer to Figure 36 “Gas
Inlet Pressure Tap and Pressure Switch Location “.
5. If either pressure switch is tripped,
it must be
manually reset before the boiler can be restarted.
