-
Installation and service must be performed by a qualified installer, service agency or the gas
supplier.
CAUTIONS: Propane gas is heavier than air and sinks to the ground. Exercise extreme care in lighting heater
in confined areas.
Do not use this boiler if any part has been under water. Immediately call a qualified service technician to
inspect the boiler and to replace any part of the control system and any gas control which has been under water.
Should overheating occur or the gas supply fail to shut off, do not turn off or disconnect the electrical supply
to the pump. Instead, shut off the gas supply at a location external to the appliance.
Raypak recommends that this manual be reviewed thoroughly before installing your Raypak Boiler. If there
are any questions which this manual does not answer please contact your local Raypak representative or the
factory.
OPERATING CONTROLS
Model W1 with On/Off Controls
The boiler is equipped with an adjustable tankstat. Set dial for desired temperature.
Models with Mechanical Modulation: H1, H5, W2, N, R
Sizes 133 through 1826. These boilers are equipped with modulating gas valves. They have one or more valves
in addition to the main electric gas valve. Their purpose is to adjust the firing rate to meet the required load. The
modulator will throttle the boiler input to meet the system demand. The valve has a remote capillary bulb immersed
in a well at the header outlet to maintain a constant outlet water temperature. When multiple valves are furnished,
they can be staged to give greater flexibility of control. Consult the dial setting tag attached to the control for your
desired water temperature.

START-UP PROCEDURE
GENERAL
LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS
BOILERS WITH MANUALLY LIT PILOTS
FOR YOUR SAFETY READ BEFORE OPERATING
Before lighting a new installation, water should be
flowing through the heater.
WARNING: If you do not follow these instructions
exactly, afireorexplosionmayresultcausingproperty
damage, personal injury or loss of life.
CAUTION: Propane gas is heavier than air and sinks
to the ground. Exercise extreme care in lighting heater
in confined areas.
A. This appliance has a pilot which must be lighted
by hand. When lighting the pilot, follow these in-
structions exactly.
INITIAL START-UP – PUMP AND MOTOR
B. BEFORE LIGHTING Smell all around the appli-
ance area for gas. Be sure to smell next to the
floor because some gas is heavier than air and
will settle on the floor.
Many pumps are now direct drive. They have no
coupler or bearing assembly. These pumps do not
require lubrication. Others require SAE-30 non-deter-
gent oil to lubricate both the motor and the bearing
assembly. Consult motor manufacturer's instructions.
Clean dust and lint from pump and motor. Check
pump coupler and tighten if necessary.
Flush system before putting into operation to as-
sure that foreign material does not damage pump
seals.
