Installation & Operation Manual

Ratings

Notes:

1. As an Energy Star Partner, Lochinvar has determined that

Knight wall mount boilers meet the Energy Star guidelines
for energy efficiency.

2. The ratings are based on standard test procedures prescribed

by the United States Department of Energy.

3. Net I=B=R ratings are based on net installed radiation of

sufficient quantity for the requirements of the building
and nothing need be added for normal piping and pickup.
Ratings are based on a piping and pickup allowance of 1.15.

4. Knight wall mount boilers require special gas venting. Use

only the vent materials and methods specified in the Knight
Wall Mount Installation and Operation Manual.

5. Standard Knight wall mount boilers are equipped to operate

from sea level to 4,500 feet only with no adjustments. The
boiler will de-rate by 4% for each 1,000 feet above sea level
up to 4,500 feet.

6. High altitude Knight wall mount boilers are equipped

to operate from 3,000 to 12,000 feet only with no field
adjustments. The boiler will de-rate by 2% for each 1,000
feet above 3,000 feet. High altitude models are manufactured
with a different control module for altitude operation, but
the operation given in this manual remains the same as the
standard boilers. A high altitude label (as shown in FIG. A)
is also affixed to the unit.

Maximum allowed working pressure is located on the rating plate.

7. The Knight Wall Mount boiler input rate, on some models,

is reduced for vent lengths beyond the minimum. Two inch

WH(N,L)110 by 0.6%, 0.94%, and 1.2% for every 10 feet
of vent. Three inch vent will reduce Models WH(N,L)155,
WH(N,L)199 and WH(N,L) 285 by 0.3%, 0.5%, and 0.6%
for every 10 feet of vent. Four inch vent will reduce Model
WH(N,L) 399 by 0.4% for every 10 feet of vent.

8. Ratings have been confirmed by the Hydronics Institute,

Section of AHRI. Model 399 has a thermal efficiency
rating.

9. Knight wall mount boilers comply with the requirements

of CSD-1 Section CW-400 requirements as a temperature
operation control. The manual reset high limit provided
