INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS FOR SHIELD REQUIRED FOR COMBUSTIBLE FLOOR
This shield for combustible floors is intended for use only with the following Burnham oil-fired boilers:
Use Part Number 6183504 for the following models:
RSA(H)85 RSA(H)110 RSA(H)125 RSA(H)135
ADDS 4-3/16” TO BOILER HEIGHT
Use Part Number 6183505 for the following models:
RSA170 RSA195 RSA240 RSA285
ADDS 5-3/8” TO BOILER HEIGHT
1) Place shield on combustible floor with “TOP” surface
upward and “FRONT” surface directly below the
expected position of the oil burner.
2) Locate shield such that clearances to combustible walls
are as indicated in Figure 24. These dimensions will
assure that the boiler jacket will be at least 18” from the
side and rear walls and 48” from the front wall, as
required by ANSI/NFPA 31.
3) Fasten shield to combustible floor to keep shield from
shifting position during setting of boiler.
4) Set boiler squarely on top of shield such that base plate
of boiler rests flat on top surface of shield and does not
over-hang shield on any side. Confirm clearance to
combustible walls. Refer to Figure 2.
5) Do not enclose boiler (including shield) on all four
sides. Boiler may be enclosed on any three sides while
maintaining minimum clearance shown in Figure 24
for each of those three sides.
