Model 4WI 100 800 HP Boilers

Oil-Fired Burners
Fuel oil consumption information is shown on the boiler rating sheets in the Dimensions
and Rating Section.
Table A2-23 shows the oil connection sizes and locations for Model CB Boilers firing
No. 2 oil.
Figures Figure A2-5 through Figure A2-8 show typical oil systems and layouts.
Figure A2-8 show the detail of an oil transfer tank (day tank) typically utilized to provide a
storage reservoir between the oil system supply pump and the boiler oil pump.

This figure illustrates the basic gas valve arrangement on Cleaver-Brooks Model 4WI
boiler and shows the contractors connection point. The valves and controls between the
contractor connection point and the gas main in the street are representative of a typical
installation. Actual requirements may vary depending on local codes or local gas
company requirements which should be investigated prior to preparation of specifications
and prior to construction.

A. Utilities service valve.

B. Utilities service regulator.
C. Gas meter.
D. Piping from meter to boiler.
The size of the gas line from the meter to the gas pressure regulator at the boiler can be
very important if gas pressures are marginal. The gas line sizing is dependent on:
1. Gas pressure at outlet of gas meter (C)
2. Rate of gas flow required, CFH
3. Length of pipe run (D)
4. Pressure required at contractor connection point.
The local gas utility will advise the pressure that is available at the outlet of their meter.
