FUEL CONVERSION
The HC Series modulating boiler is factory fire-tested to operate with natural gas.
The rating plate will be marked to indicate which fuel the particular boiler has
been set up with. Firing a boiler with a fuel other than what is listed on the rating
plate is prohibited unless the following conversion procedure is completed by a
qualified technician.
Refer to the preceeding section 3.3 - COMMISSIONING. The Low Fire (Zero
Offset) valve adjustment cap on the gas valve has been factory set.
This cap
must not be tampered with. The Zero-offset screw is not to be adjusted in
the field.
Fuel conversion requires hardware adjustments (Orifice Replacement) as well as
measurement and possible tuning of the gas :air mixture. Detailed instructions
including parts and labeling are found in Fuel Conversion kits:
Refer to Table 9
for the correct kit number.
