IMPORTANT

1. Read and familiarize yourself with this installation, operation, and mainte

nance manual before installing, operating, or servicing your boiler.

2. All cover plates, enclosures, and safety devices must be installed at all

times except while performing maintenance and service.

3. Only trained service technicians should do any work on your boiler.

4. All state and local codes take precedence over any recommendations given

in this manual.

5. Columbia Boiler performed testing on the MPH boiler line using specific

makes and models of burners. Should you choose to supply your own burn-

er, please contact the burner manufacturer to confirm compatibility with the

MPH boiler design.

6. A barometric damper or draft regulator may be required on MPH installa-

tions. A draft regulating device is required on all multiple boiler installations

where the boilers utilize common breaching. One regulator is required per

boiler. Regulators can be installed in each individual boiler breach (Location

A) or in the common breach, just upstream of each connection between the

boiler breach and the common breach. (Location B) One regulator (Location

C) is not acceptable.

INTRODUCTION

Series MPH Modified Scotch Boiler

The Columbia Multi-Pass Horizontal (MPH) boiler is a modified scotch boiler

designed for hot water, and/or low pressure steam applications. The pressure vessel

is available as a welded pipe boiler or a rolled tube boiler. These units are manufac-

tured to the specifications set forth by Section IV of the ASME Boiler and Pressure

Vessel Code. Boilers are inspected and stamped for conformity to requirements of

the National Board of Boiler and Pressure Vessel Inspectors. All boilers are designed

to be fired using No. 2 fuel oil, and/or natural, manufactured, or liquid propane (LP)

gas, and are powered by standard AC electrical service.

Columbia MPH hot water and low pressure steam boilers are typically shipped

knocked down (unassembled), but are also available factory packaged. All boilers are

furnished with a burner and boiler trim (the jacket is factory installed). Boiler trim con-

sists of the operating and limit controls, pump control and/or low water cut off

(LWCO) controls, and a safety valve. Factory packaged boilers are fully assembled

and test fired.

SERVICE POLICY

Steam and hot water boilers are routinely serviced by the installer or another boiler

maintenance company. Occasionally the service technician may be unable to deter-

mine the cause of the problem. In this situation, the dealer or service organization

should contact the selling distributor for help.

Should the problem persist, the distributor will contact the sales representative for

assistance. Depending on the extent of the problem, the representative may request

technical assistance from the factory.

If the problem cannot be resolved by the representative, the representative or serv-

iceman should contact the Technical Service/Engineering Department at the factory.

The following information will be needed. It is essential that this information be avail-

able to assure prompt service.

MPH COLUMBIA BOILER COMPANY

INSTALLATION

BEFORE BEGINNING INSTALLATION, CAREFULLY STUDY THESE

INSTRUCTIONS AND ALL CHARTS, DRAWINGS, AND DIAGRAMS

SHIPPED WITH THE BOILER.

Installation must follow all state and local code requirements, Fire and Underwriters regulations,

and standard plumbing practices. The electrical installation shall be in accordance with the

National Electrical Code.

Remove all boiler components from packaging and inspect prior to assembly to ensure that

damage has not occurred in shipping.

BOILER ROOM

Locate the boiler in a well lit area on a noncombustible, level floor. Make available a convenient

water supply and allow adequate drainage, including unobstructed floor drains, for flushing and

filling the boiler. Provide sufficient make-up air for combustion at all times. See section on “Com-

bustion Air” later in this manual. Power the boiler using a properly rated electrical service.

Include fused disconnects for control circuits, blower motor circuits, and feed pump circuits that

require a motor contactor or motor starter relay.

Where possible, place the boiler on a 3 inch concrete pad. Allow adequate clearance between

the boiler and any walls or obstructions to permit inspection and service on burner, boiler pip-

ing, controls, or combustion vent.

DO NOT install exhaust fans in or near the boiler room. Exhaust fans consume available make-

up air during burner operation. More importantly, when the boiler cycles off, exhaust fans pull

hot flue gases back through the burner causing burner parts to deteriorate, and possibly fail.

Maintain a positive pressure in the boiler room at all times. Refer to the combustion air section

of this manual for additional information.

Do not allow your boiler room to become a storage room.

VENTING

Locate the boiler as close as possible to the chimney or other approved exhaust vent. Attach all

flue piping to the round flue connection and make each connection secure. The flue pipe should

not be inserted beyond the inside wall of the chimney.

DO NOT REDUCE THE SIZE OF THE FLUE OUTLET OR FLUE PIPING.

Columbia Boiler recommends the use of galvanized “B” Type vent for stack connections suit-

able for temperatures to 550F. The flue pipe should be pitched upward at least 1/4" per foot of

run. Avoid the use of tees, sharp bends, and long horizontal runs. Install a draft regulator if

required. See page 4 for draft regulator installation on multiple boilers with common breaching.

All Columbia boiler models utilize a pressure fired burner and need only to be properly vented.

For situations where unusual conditions may exist, consult the factory for proper venting.

MPH COLUMBIA BOILER COMPANY 6

COLUMBIA BOILER COMPANY OF POTTSTOWN SHALL NOT BE HELD LIABLE FOR

DAMAGE TO THE BOILER CAUSED BY INCORRECT VENT CONDITIONS AND/OR

INSUFFICIENT BURNER MAKEUP AIR.

JACKET ASSEMBLY

The jacket for the MPH boiler is factory installed and should not have to be removed for instal-

lation of the boiler.

BURNER MOUNTING

If the burner is to be installed on site, first apply a gasketing material between the burner flange

and the burner mounting plate to seal the burner. Use a non-asbestos fiber rope, or a wet insu-

lating material for a gasket, as shown in Figure 2. Wet insulation is the preferred gasketing

material because it compresses into a flat gasket which conforms to and fills any and all voids.

Secure the burner in the boiler using the four bolts supplied with the burner. See the Burner Sec-

tion of this manual for proper electrical wiring, and fuel supply piping.

Note: All factory packaged boilers use a wet insulation material as a gasket.

BOILER CONNECTIONS

Drains

All Columbia Boiler MPH units have (2) 1-1/4" drains. These are located in the front and rear of

the boiler below the fire chamber. Install a pipe nipple and ball valve in a least one for use as a

drain. If a drain is not needed, plug it by using the proper size nipple and a pipe cap. DO NOT

use a pipe plug.

Low Water Cut-Offs

All Columbia boilers are supplied with at least one low water cut-off (LWCO) as standard equip-

ment. Some boiler applications may require a secondary LWCO. The standard equipment is as

follows:

Hot Water Boilers - McDonnell & Miller 750-MT-120 Probe Type Low Water Cut-Off with

Remote Sensor - Thread the Remote Sensor into the 3/4" NPT fitting located on top of the boil-

er. Mount the Control Box near the top of the side jacket panel.

Steam Boilers - McDonnell & Miller Model 157 Low Water Cut-Off/Pump Control - Install this

device into the 1" NPT welded couplings found on the top and either side of the boiler. Only two

of the three 1" NPT will be used. The 157 can be piped to either side of the boiler.

Secondary Low Water Cut-Offs

Secondary LWCO’s may be required to meet local codes or CSD-1 requirements. A Warrick

26C1D1C Probe Type Low Water Cut-Off is used in steam applications to meet CSD-1 require-

ments and is also standard on steam units. Thread the remote sensor into the 1/2” NPT fitting

located on top of the boiler using a 1/2” x 3/8" bushing. See Table 1. for proper probe rod length.

Mount the control box to a side jacket panel on the boiler.

BOILER MODEL MPH MPH MPH MPH

30/40 50/60 70/80 90/100

ROD LENGTH 14" 14" 14" 12"

TABLE 1

Other secondary LWCO’s include combination LWCO / Water Feeders. These devices are typ-

ically connected externally using an equalizing line, and piped into the available 1" NPT fittings

found in boiler top, and left side or front. Most commonly used combination units are McDonnell

& Miller 42 Series Pump Controls and Low Water Cut-Off or McDonnell & Miller No. 247-2 Feed-

er Combination. For piping diagram, see the List of Figures on the Table of Contents Page of

this manual.
