Refer to Figures 3A, 3C, and 3D. Connecting the boiler involves three activities:
• Supply Side Connections
• Return Side Connections
• Wiring
NOTE: If you are installing dual-stacked boilers, each boiler must be installed in the same manner according to
the following guidelines for connections/wiring. Each boiler must be protected with its own low water cut-off
and MUST be piped individually (i.e. piping dual-stacked units together with a single supply or return line is
strictly PROHIBITED).
NOTE: PLUMBING ASSEMBLY IS SHIPPED DRY FIT ONLY. DO NOT INSTALL UNTIL PLUMBING
COMPONENTS ARE RE-ASSEMBLED WITH PROPER THREAD SEALANT.
Wiring
• For each boiler, connect the wire from the CTB control box to the circulator. Refer to the
CTB wiring diagram in Appendix B as needed. If necessary, excess length may be trimmed
from the circulator wires.

NOTE: The burner may have been mounted on the CTB at the factory. If this is the case, simply check the
clearance between the retention head and the boiler to make sure the burner swings freely into firing position. If
adjustments are necessary, follow the procedure below to adjust the hinge bracket bolts.
1. Remove the nut from the burner mounting flange on the boiler cabinet, and set it aside for later
use.
2. Lift the burner into position and mount it on the hinge bracket of the boiler cabinet.
3. Carefully swing the burner and check the clearance between the retention head and the boiler
throat. There must be at least 1/8" clearance, so the retention head is not "bumped" as you swing
the burner into firing position.
If the retention head "bumps" the boiler throat, adjust the hinge bracket bolts as follows:
• While supporting the burner, slightly loosen the two (2) hinge bracket bolts.
• Carefully re-position the burner so it swings freely into its firing position.
• With the burner in its firing position, re-tighten the hinge bracket bolts.
ATTENTION: The connector block includes an accumulator. The accumulator functions like a shock absorber
on the oil line to prevent pressure buildup and protect vital burner components. It is important that the connector
block is installed as shown so that the accumulator is in a vertical position to prevent sediment from settling in the
accumulator. Never operate your CTB without the connector block and accumulator properly installed on the
boiler, or damage may occur to vital burner components.
ATTENTION: DO NOT use teflon tape or teflon pipe dope products on any fittings; teflon residue will plug vital
burner components. Non-hardening pipe dope compounds are recommended.

The CTB system designer/installer must ensure that there is the proper amount of combustion air in the boiler/
mechanical room.
Combustion Air is the required amount of air that the equipment needs to permit the satisfactory
combustion of oil, the proper venting of combustion gases, and to maintain a safe ambient temperature within the
space at safe limits under normal conditions of use.
Units located in confined spaces (units in a boiler room/mechanical room) must have two (2)
permanent openings, one near the top of the enclosure and one near the bottom of the enclosure
as follows:
1. If all of the air is taken directly from the outside of the building by use of vertical ducts -
each of the two openings must have a total free area of not less than 1 square inch per 4,000
BTU/hr (35 square inches per gallon of oil) of the total appliance(s) input rating (NFPA 31,
Section 5.4.2.2).
2. If all of the air is taken directly from the outside of the building by use of horizontal ducts -
each of the two openings must have a total free area of not less than 1 square inch per 2,000
BTU/hr (70 square inches per gallon of oil) of the total appliance(s) input rating (NFPA 31,
Section 5.4.2.2).
3. If all of the air is taken directly from inside of the building - each of the two openings must have
a total free area of not less than 1 square inch per 1,000 BTU/hr (140 square inches per gallon
of oil) of the total appliances(s) input rating (NFPA 31 Section 5.4.1).

IMPORTANT NOTE! Detailed information on the installation and operation of the hydronics
system is provided in Section 10 of this manual. The instructions
provided here are abbreviated and serve only to indicate when these procedures should be
performed; consult Section 10 for the detailed version.
NOTE: PLUMBING ASSEMBLY IS SHIPPED DRY FIT ONLY. DO NOT INSTALL UNTIL PLUMBING
COMPONENTS ARE RE-ASSEMBLED WITH PROPER THREAD SEALANT.
1. Connect the desired header supply and return lines to the CTB.
2. Have the water trim installed by a certified hydronics technician according to the ASME
Section IV Boiler Code. Heat exchangers must be used for domestic water heater installations.
3. For air separation and elimination, Clean Burn recommends the Enhanced Spiral-Type Air
Separator which can be supplied by your local Clean Burn dealer. Installing an air separator
helps ensure that air is purged from the boiler, which is necessary for optimal startup and
operation of the burner.
4. The relief valve discharge must be piped to within four inches of the floor or to a floor drain.
Be sure to allow for clearance to remove the back panel for servicing.
ATTENTION: It is necessary to fill the CTB with water prior to wiring and turning the CTB ON. The boiler
circulator bearings are water lubricated and should not be allowed to operate dry. Filling the CTB with water
provides immediate lubrication of the bearings. Purging air from the water is also critical; doing so enables
proper startup of the burner.

• All suction oil line components must be installed as shown in Figures 4A, 4B, and 4F.
Suction line size is 1/2" diameter. Proper installation allows the suction oil line to be filled
with used oil during initial priming.
• The suction oil line may NOT exceed 6 feet TOTAL vertical lift AND 4 feet TOTAL
horizontal lift (which equals 6.0” hg maximum operating vacuum). To determine if your
suction oil line will meet this specification for maximum operating vacuum, base the calculation for
your installation on the following equivalents:
(1) vertical foot = 0.75” hg (vacuum)
(4) horizontal feet = 0.75” hg (vacuum)
NOTE: ALSO ADD 0.75" hg to the final sum to account for every oil filter, shut-off valve, and
check valve on the suction side of the pump assembly.
Sample calculation: (6) vertical feet x 0.75" = 4.50" hg AND (4) horizontal feet = 0.75" hg
4.50" hg + 0.75" hg + 0.75" hg = 6.00" hg vacuum
• The metering pump must be installed with a 3/4" check valve and screen at the end of the
suction oil line, or the pump will not maintain its prime.
• Use Permatex #2 non-hardening gasket sealer on every threaded fitting. DO NOT use
teflon tape or teflon pipe dope compounds; the teflon can flake off and cause damage to the
pump head.
• The suction oil line must be 100% airtight for proper system functioning. Use only
high-quality flare fittings for the copper tubing. DO NOT use compression fittings.
DO NOT use any steel pipe unions. DO NOT use sweat copper pipe. These types of fittings
cause air leaks in the suction oil line and will require re-installation.
• The suction oil line must slant up to the pump; any high spots will trap air and will not
allow the pump to prime.
1. Assemble the suction oil line fittings (from the metering pump to the canister filter):
a. Refer to Figure 4F for a detailed look at the metering pump components and fittings.
b. Remove the plug from the 1/4" inlet port of the pump.
c. Install the 1/4" x 3" brass nipple into the 1/4" inlet port on the pump.
d. Install the 1/4" brass street elbow onto the 3" brass nipple; turn the fitting onto the nipple
until it is tight and faces away from the pump mounting plate.
e. Prepare the canister filter for installation:
• Install the 3/4" x 1/4" brass hex bushing into the outlet port of the canister filter.
Check the direction of the arrow for the proper flow.
• Install the 3/4" x 1/2" brass bushing into the inlet port of the canister filter.

Coil Tube Boiler Operator's Manual: Models CB-200-CTB, CB-350-CTB, and CB-500-CTB
2. Install the suction oil line (from the the tank to the canister filter):
a. Refer to Figures 4A, 4B, and/or 4F.
b. Prepare a piece of 1/2" O.D. copper tubing (user-supplied) which will function as the pick-up
line from the tank to the canister filter. This copper tubing must have the following
specifications:
• The tube must be one continuous piece of 1/2" O.D. copper tubing with no kinks
or fittings.
• The tube is to slant up from the tank to the pump with no loops or high points to
trap air.
c. Locate the 2" MPT x 1/2" FPT x 1/2" FPT duplex, slip-thru hex bushing (which will
eventually be installed into one of the 2" openings on the tank). Note that the fitting is
marked "S" for suction and "R" for return.
d. Install the 1/2" MPT x 1/2" slip fitting into the "S" side of the 2" duplex slip-thru hex
bushing.
e. Install the 1/4" MPT x 1/4" compression fitting into the 1/2" x 1/4" brass bushing.
f. Install the 1/2" x 1/4" brass bushing into the "R" side of the 2" duplex slip-thru hex bushing.
g. Measure the height of the oil tank (from the bottom of the tank, NOT the floor) to the 2"
opening that you are going to use for the supply oil line. Deduct 12" (305mm) from this
measurement and transfer this new measurement onto the 1/2" O.D. coppper tubing.
h. Remove the locking nut and ferrel sleeve connector from the 1/2" slip fitting, and slide them
over the copper tubing.
i. Slide the 1/2" O.D. copper tubing through the 1/2" slip fitting, which is installed in the "S"
side of the 2" hex bushing.
j. Install the screen into one side of the 3/4" check valve (making sure the arrow is pointing
away from the screen assembly).
k. Install the 3/4" x 1/2" brass bushing into the 3/4" check valve.
l. Install the 1/2" MPT x 1/2" flare adapter into the 3/4" x 1/2" brass bushing.

ATTENTION: It is critical that you adhere to the following specifications for pressure oil line
installation (oil line from the pump to the boiler); if these specifications are not met, the metering pump will not
function correctly and the burner will shut down on reset.
• If possible, the pressure oil line should slant up to the burner with no loops or high points to
trap air.
• Local codes may require the installation of an in-line "Fire-O-Matic" safety valve.
Be sure to check all appropriate codes to ensure compliance.
1. Run a compressed air line from your shop air to the burner on the boiler. Use minimum 1/4"
O.D. copper tubing or equivalent for the compressed air line.
2. Install an easily accessible shut-off valve in the air line so the burner can be serviced without
shutting off the shop air in your service area.
3. Install a pressure regulator (additional to the burner air regulator) in the air line, and set it at 50 psi.
ATTENTION: DO NOT feed full shop air pressure to the burner or damage to burner
components may occur.
4. Install a water trap or extractor/dryer in the air line with an automatic drain so compressed air
(rather than water) is supplied to the burner.
ATTENTION: Water must not be fed to the burner, or the flame will be extinguished and the
burner will shut down. Be sure to drain water from your compressor tank on a regular basis to
keep water out of the air line.

Coil Tube Boiler Operator's Manual: Models CB-200-CTB, CB-350-CTB, and CB-500-CTB
IMPORTANT NOTE: Separate, dedicated lines/circuits must be wired for each boiler in the dual-stacked unit.
CAUTION: DO NOT tie into an existing circuit or electrical overload may occur.
2. Wire the CTB according to the Wiring Schematic in Appendix B. Refer to NFPA-70 for wire size and
distances.
3. Check for correct voltage at the CTB and refer to the following chart. Incorrect voltage may
damage the CTB components.
*NOTE: Breaker size with optional equipment is 30 amps. When installing any optional equipment
(e.g. air compressor), you must use a 30 amp breaker. Make sure a qualified electrician properly sizes and installs
this electrical circuit. Refer to NFPA-70 for wire size and distances.
CAUTION: DO NOT turn on main power until instructed to do so.
4-17
Coil Tube Boiler Operator's Manual: Models CB-200-CTB, CB-350-CTB, and CB-500-CTB
ATTENTION: DO NOT wire the oil pump directly into your building's electrical system. The oil pump must be
activated (receive power from) the burner via the pump electrical circuit.
1. Install the oil pump electrical circuit from the CTB to the oil pump location (refer to Figures
4A/4B).
2. Wire the oil pump circuit according to the wiring schematic provided (Appendix B).
NOTE: To reduce the amount of cold water returned to the boiler (and to protect the boiler from
thermal shock), an optional circulator aquastat can be supplied by your Clean Burn Dealer.
1. Refer to the related information and illustrations in Section 10 and the CTB Wiring Diagram in
Appendix B to locate and understand the wiring for the load loop circulator.
2. The cold water return in your CTB system installation should not be below 140 oF.
NOTE: For installations where cold water return is a risk, Clean Burn recommends installation
of a blending loop. If a blending loop is installed in your CTB system, the load loop circulator
should be wired separately from the CTB control box. Refer to Section 10 for additional
information.

Coil Tube Boiler Operator's Manual: Models CB-200-CTB, CB-350-CTB, and CB-500-CTB
Figure 4I illustrates the through-the-ceiling stack design for a single boiler; this stack design is
preferable and is more commonly used. Refer to Figure 4J for the dual-stacked boiler stack design.
NOTE: If you plan to use an existing masonry chimney, the chimney must be lined and be located inside the
building. Exterior masonry chimneys chill the stack gases and result in poor draft and poor burner performance.
ATTENTION: If you have an exhaust fan(s) in your shop, it is critical that you have adequate make up air
(source of fresh air to replace the stale air exhausted by the fan). When an exhaust fan is run without adequate
make up air, the resultant vacuum in the building will draw combustion products back into the burner. This back
draft causes poor burner performance and may damage vital burner
components. Refer to Section 8 in this manual for additional information concerning exhaust fans and proper
make up air.

NOTE: CSA Standards require that all heating equipment must be installed with a stack safety switch. If your
heating equipment is being installed in Canada, follow the instructions listed below.
CAUTION: For your safety and the safe operation of your heating equipment, the stack switch must
be installed by a qualified installer in accordance with the installation instructions provided here. Wiring
must be accomplished in accordance with all applicable codes. Failure to adhere to these safety
recommendations may result in serious personal injury and/or equipment damage.
1. Follow the instructions in the Operator’s Manual, Section 4 to install a proper stack, including the
barometric damper which must be installed within 40 inches of the breach.
NOTE: The barometric damper must be installed so that it is level and the flapper moves freely.
2. Ensure that main power to the heating equipment is turned OFF.
3. Position the stack safety switch over the lip of the barometric damper as shown in Figure 4L.
4. Drill a 1/8” pilot hole for the mounting screw, and mount the stack safety switch using the mounting
screw supplied with the switch.
NOTE: The mounting screw must not interfere with the free movement of the flapper on the barometric
damper.
5. Install the wall thermostat according to the instructions provided in the Operator’s Manual, Section 4.
Wire the wall thermostat and stack safety switch in series as shown in Figure 4M. Install the wire so
that it is secured away from any hot surfaces.
6. When the heating equipment installation is completed, follow the instructions in the Operator’s
Manual, Sections 5 and 6 to prime the pump and start/adjust the burner.
7. Follow instructions in the Operator’s Manual, Section 8 to check the draft; this is crucial for the
proper, safe operation of the heating equipment.

Coil Tube Boiler Operator's Manual: Models CB-200-CTB, CB-350-CTB, and CB-500-CTB
WARNING: BURN HAZARD! To prevent serious personal injury, be sure to allow ample time, at
least 30 minutes, for the stack, barometric damper, and switch to cool down before attempting to access
and service these components. It is crucial to identify the cause of the stack obstruction (e.g. heavy snowfall)
and correct it before resetting the stack safety switch and re-starting the burner. DO NOT operate the heating
equipment with an obstructed stack; failure to correct an obstructed stack may result in fire, explosion, and/or
burn hazards causing serious personal injury or death.
NOTE: In locations where heavy snowfall occurs, it is critical that the stack remain unobstructed by snow. For
safe heating equipment operation, be sure to keep the area surrounding the stack clear of snow.
1. Before resetting the stack safety switch, check the stack to make sure it is clear of any obstructions.
2. Remove the cover from the stack safety switch, and push the small button in the middle of the switch.
3. Pushing the stack safety switch reset button will re-establish the thermostat circuit, and the burner will
start (assuming the wall thermostat is calling for heat).
The Stack Safety Switch monitors the temperature at the barometric damper on the stack and is de-
signed to detect the obstruction of the free flow of stack gases from the heating equipment and shut
down the burner. Obstruction of the stack results in the “spillage” of stack gases from the barometric
damper, which heats up the switch. The switch then opens, disconnecting the thermostat circuit to the
burner, and the burner shuts off.

WARNING: When running the stack through your ceiling, roof, or sidewall, you must use
Class A/UL103 HT double-wall insulated all-fuel stack components with a stainless steel liner.
DO NOT run single-wall stack through your ceiling, roof or sidewall.
ATTENTION: All exterior stack pieces must be Class A/UL103 HT double-wall insulated all-fuel stack
components with a stainless steel liner.
• DO NOT use Class B Vent/double-wall stack components (i.e. for gas fired appliances only).
• DO NOT use Type L Vent/double-wall stack components (for approved fuel oil appliances only).
• DO NOT use single-wall stack for your exterior stack. Single-wall exterior stack chills the
stack gases and results in poor draft and poor burner performance.
NOTE: Proper installation of a Class A/UL103 HT stack cap ensures the free flow of stack gases which is
essential for optimal burner performance.
1. Refer to Figure 4I as needed. Your stack cap should be classified as: Class A/UL103 HT
non-restrictive, all-fuel type.
2. Install the stack cap according to the manufacturer's instructions.
ATTENTION: The Field brand draft inducers have been tested for use on Clean Burn Equipment. DO NOT use
other models or brands of draft inducers.

inducer on the section of single-wall vertical stack.
2. Position the draft plate all the way out so that it does not reduce the draft produced by the draft
inducer. Follow directions in Section 8 (Adjusting the Draft Overfire) to set the proper draft.
1. Wire the draft inducer according to the Wiring Diagram in the Burner Control Box and also
provided in Appendix B at the back of this manual.
1. Select a location for the thermostat on an interior wall away from any hot or cold drafts.
2. Remove the top cover from the thermostat by pushing gently on the latch at the top center of the
body. (Hold the thermostat base in one hand, and grasp the body with the other hand; push in on
the latch with your thumb, and pull the cover away from the base.)
ATTENTION: DO NOT use a screwdriver to pry the cover off the base, or damage may occur.
3. Remove the green paper insert and the black plastic battery isolator from the battery section of the
thermostat.
4. Refer to the Burner Wiring Diagram in Appendix B at the back of this manual. Run two wire,
18-gauge (minimum) thermostat cable from the terminals on the back of the thermostat base to the T/T
terminals of the control box on the side of the boiler. DO NOT run the wiring to the primary control!
5. Run two wire, 18-gauge (minimum) thermostat cable from the B1/B2 terminals of the control box on the
side of the boiler to the T/T terminals of the primary control on the burner.
ATTENTION: NEVER jump between T/T terminals on the burner control box or the primary control
without removing one of the wires. Failure to remove one of the wires will burn out the heat anticipator
on the thermostat and will cause the thermostat to fail.
6. Mount the thermostat base 60" to 66" from the floor using the hardware provided.
7. Reassemble the thermostat body onto the base. (Align the hinges at the bottom of the cover with
the slots at the bottom of the base, and swing the cover up into place.)
1. Proper battery level is indicated by the room temperature being displayed on the LCD screen.
2. When the battery level becomes low, a battery icon along with the word "REPLACE" will be displayed
in the lower left corner of the LCD screen. Replace the batteries to ensure proper operation, following
the previous instructions on the thermostat disassembly procedure.
3. If the batteries are not replaced, the display will slowly become dim and not display any information.
The thermostat will eventually not function. If this happens, replace the batteries immediately.

Following the completion of all installation activities described in this chapter, the CTB should be
inspected by qualified personnel before firing. This ensures that your installation meets all applicable national
and local codes and allows for any deficiencies in the installation to be corrected before CTB startup. Improper
installation will void your warranty.
NOTE: Important! During the inspection, be sure to check the aquastat settings. Initial settings are
listed here:
Refer to Section 6 for burner startup and final adjustments of the aquastat.
Any changes to these settings should be made only by a qualified hydronics technician. See Section 10, The
CTB Hydronics System, for more information.

Vacuum testing the oil pump is a very accurate way to determine the following:
• The condition of the pump -- the ability of the pump to pull a vacuum and suck oil from the tank.
• The condition of the fittings, gaskets and seals from the ball valve to the pump -- these
components must all be airtight to avoid suction leaks.
The following procedure provides instructions for vacuum testing the pump and canister filter on
systems equipped with a ball valve.
ATTENTION: For the pump to pull and hold vacuum, it is critical that all fittings are airtight. If any of these fit-
tings are loose, the pump may not pull a vacuum or may lose the vacuum rapidly. It is also critical that all fittings
in the suction line, including fittings on the canister filter, are 100% airtight.
5-4
Coil Tube Boiler Operator's Manual: Models CB-200-CTB, CB-350-CTB, and CB-500-CTB
ATTENTION: If the vacuum drops more than one to five inches within the first minute, there is one or more
leaks somewhere between the pump and the ball valve. Do the following:
• Wipe your finger along the cylinder at the shaft of the pump. If there is oil here, the pump
seal is damaged. Replace the pump.
• Disassemble and clean all the fittings from the pump to the ball valve. Properly seal all
fittings with Permatex #2 non-hardening gasket sealer or equivalent. Check the condition of
the o-ring on the canister filter and tighten the four canister filter bolts in a crisscross pattern.
• Repeat the procedure to vacuum test the system to ensure that the system is air tight.
6. Follow the instructions to prime the metering pump after a vacuum test has been performed.

FOR DUAL-STACKED UNITS ONLY: Clean Burn recommends that you complete burner startup and
adjustment for one burner before starting the second burner.
Starting and adjusting the burner involves a series of separate procedures which must be accomplished in
sequence without interruption. Review all the procedures before attempting burner startup and
adjustment, paying careful attention to safety information statements.
1. If you have not already done so, disconnect one wire from the terminal block at the "thermostat"
connection. (This prevents the burner from running.) A wiring diagram is provided in
Appendix B.
2. Turn the main power to the CTB ON (the green power light on the burner should be ON).
3. Wait at least 15 minutes until the preheater block is thoroughly warmed up. (Feel the back of
the burner box to make sure the preheater is sufficiently warm. The proving switch on the
preheater block will not allow the burner to start until the block is at least 120 oF.)
NOTE: The preheater block will remain warm as long as power is supplied to the burner. If the
main power supply is ever turned OFF, you must wait at least 15 minutes until the preheater
block is thoroughly warm before starting the burner.

The oil primary control will go into safety lock-out and shut the burner off when it detects flame-out during burner
operation. The oil primary control will then wait approximately one minute and attempt to re-ignite the burner
(recycle mode). If the burner does not re-ignite, the control will shut the burner off on safety. The following
procedure explains what should be done when this occurs. It is very
important that you follow these instructions precisely when resetting the safety on the primary control and
restarting the burner.
DANGER! DO NOT reset the oil primary control if oil mist is present in the combustion
chamber or when the combustion chamber is hot! DO NOT operate your CTB if excess oil,
oil vapor or fumes have accumulated in or near your boiler. As with any oil burning unit, improper operation
may result in a fire or explosion hazard.

Any type of exhaust fan, paint booth, or exhaust system in a building will create negative pressure in the building
unless there is a source of make-up air (i.e. fresh air which enters the building and replaces the air removed by the
exhaust fans.)
If there is insufficient make-up air, the exhaust fan will suck air and combustion gases down the coil tube boiler
stack and create backdraft in the boiler. After the burner is shut down, the backdraft may suck the residual heat
out of the combustion chamber and into the burner causing damage to the burner. Even if the exhaust fan is on
another level of the building or in another room away from the boiler, the exhaust fan will still create backdraft at
the boiler.
The following procedure is an accurate method of determining how much backdraft is created by the exhaust fans.
Once this is determined, you can select the correct method for resolving the backdraft.
1. Turn off ALL exhaust fans and close ALL doors and windows in the building (any open door or
window will allow make-up air to enter the building and will negate the test).
2. Start the coil tube boiler and adjust the barometric damper so that the draft overfire is -.02 w.c.
3. Check the draft overfire again. Now have someone start the exhaust fans.
4. Note how much the draft overfire has changed.
ATTENTION: If the draft overfire changed towards positive, it is mandatory that make-up air
is provided to the building or severe damage to the boiler and burner will occur (voiding the
warranty). If the draft overfire remained constant at -.02 w.c., there is sufficient make-up air
entering the building, and the exhaust fan is not adversely affecting the draft.
CAUTION: Under no circumstances should the equipment room ever be under a negative
pressure. Look for exhaust fans, compressors, air handling units, or anything else that may take
air away from the boiler. Also look for chemical fumes, solvents, refrigerants, etc. that may be in use
around the boiler and cause damage to it.

SECTION 9: MAINTENANCE
Understanding Maintenance
Maintaining your Clean Burn CTB is an important activity which includes several periodic maintenance activities
and an annual burner tune-up...all are necessary to keep your boiler running in peak condition.
The following chart summarizes all the maintenance activities which should be performed on the CTB at the
intervals indicated. Instructions/procedures for these activities are included in this chapter.
*It is very important to clean the ash from the CTB on schedule. Normal use of the boiler requires
clean-out at least twice during the heating season. Heavy, around-the-clock usage requires more
frequent clean-out (e.g. one month of continual running of the boiler is 720 hours).
NOTE: IMPORTANT! Record all maintenance activities in the Maintenance Record provided in the
Appendixes.
The Clean Burn CTB requires annual preventative maintenance. The burner also requires an annual tune-up to
keep it running in peak condition. The burner tune-up should be performed by a qualified Clean Burn service
technician who has the necessary parts and expertise.
Contact your local Clean Burn dealer to schedule the annual maintenance for your boiler. Various levels of
service are provided to fit your particular need. This work is usually performed during the warm-weather months
to prepare the boiler for the next heating season.

ATTENTION: Never operate the oil pump with more than 10" HG of vacuum on the vacuum gauge. High
vacuum on the suction side of the pump separates air from the oil (cavitation) and will cause the burner to shut
down.

This procedure applies to coil tube boiler installations with inside and outside tanks. The following
protective gear should be worn when cleaning the check valve/screen:
• Rubber gloves
• Safety goggles
1. Refer to Figure 9C. Remove the one-piece suction oil line from the tank.
2. Remove the check valve and screen. Clean these components in a parts washer.
3. Check the operation of the check valve. The valve must seat so it is airtight to hold pump prime.
4. Re-assemble and re-install the components. Apply Permatex #2 non-hardening gasket sealer or
equivalent to the threaded fittings. Firmly tighten all connections so the suction line is 100%
airtight.
5. Follow pump priming instructions in Section 5 to re-establish prime.

ATTENTION: Your CTB may require frequent clean out of the ash due to contaminants in the oil or heavy use.
As ash accumulates, CTB heat output declines, and the stack temperature rises. 1/8" of ash has the insulating
capacity of one inch of fiberglass insulation and reduces heat transfer significantly. Never allow more than 1/4" of
ash to accumulate in the combustion chamber, heat exchanger flues or stack.
The following protective gear should be worn when cleaning the ash:
• Respirator for fine particles • Rubber gloves
• Safety goggles • Protective clothing
1. Ensure that power has been turned OFF, and all "hot" components have been allowed to cool
sufficiently. Shop air should be turned OFF and disconnected. Allow at least one hour for the
ceramics to cool.
9-4
Coil Tube Boiler Operator's Manual: Models CB-200-CTB, CB-350-CTB, and CB-500-CTB
2. Clean the ash from the combustion chamber (see Figure 9D):
a. If the air and oil lines must be disconnected to open the clean out door:
1. Bleed-down pressure on the air and oil lines by slightly loosening the fittings at the bottom of
the connector block.
2. With air and oil pressure completely bled off, disconnect the air and oil pressure lines from
the bottom of the connector block.
NOTE: Cover these lines to keep dirt from entering the air / oil supply.
b. Remove the lock nuts on the clean-out door.
c. Carefully swing open the clean-out door to expose the coiled heat exchanger, flue passages,
and the combustion chamber.
d. Remove the ceramic sleeve from the combustion chamber, and remove the supporting stand.
e. Use a wire or bristle brush to thoroughly clean out the ash from the combustion chamber and
flue passages.
f. While cleaning out the combustion chamber, also check the burner retention head and throat.
Carefully clean these elements.
g. Thoroughly vacuum any remaining ash residue from the flue passages. A long wand on the
hose of your shop vac is helpful in reaching all the way back.
h. Inspect the combustion chamber and its components to ensure that it is in good condition.
Inspect the inside of the clean-out door and target wall. Make sure the refractory material on
the inside of the door is in good condition, and the door seals tightly when closed. If the
door does not seal tightly, replace any damaged components.
3. Clean the ash from the stack components:
a. Brush accumulated ash from the stack cap.
b. Lightly tap the stack components to loosen the ash.
c. Allow ash and dust to settle in the clean-out tee or elbow, then vacuum out.
d. Disconnect the stack from the CTB breach.
e. Thoroughly vacuum out the back of the boiler, including the boiler breach (through the
breach). If desired, the back panel can be removed for cleaning.
I88123-A
ATTENTION: When handling the front door and rear panel, be careful that you do not damage
the insulation seal surfaces. Two technicians may be required to remove and install the rear
panel safely. The panel weighs approximately 85 lbs.
4. Reassemble the boiler components (ceramic stand, ceramic sleeve, back panel, etc.) If necessary, refer
to Section 3 for additional Assembly information.
5. Close the clean-out door, install and tighten the washer and nuts. Make sure that the clean-out
door and rear panel close and seal properly. Reconnect all disconnected lines (oil and air) on the
bottom of the connector block.
NOTE: You may need to bleed air from the oil line before starting the burner. See Section 5
for pertinent instructions.
DO NOT allow water, sludge, or other debris to accumulate in your oil supply tank to the point that
non-combustible or harmful materials are drawn into the pump or burner.
Drain water and sludge from the bottom of your tank at least once a year, and more frequently with
water accumulation.
Turn main power to your coil tube boiler OFF at the end of the heating season. EPA regulations allow your used
oil to be burned only for "heat recovery." DO NOT operate your boiler during warm weather just to burn oil.
Contact your local Clean Burn dealer to schedule your annual burner tune-up. Allow only trained, authorized
service personnel to service your burner.
In the "off" season after the boiler has been cleaned, spray the combustion chamber with a light coat of oil to
reduce corrosion caused by moisture in the air.
NOTE: If the CTB is not used during the cold-weather months, it must be protected to prevent damage from
freezing temperatures.
The Draft Inducer will require periodic maintenance to ensure that the fan blades do not accumulate excessive ash
which can create vibration, noise, and motor wear.
1. Ensure that power has been turned OFF, and all "hot" components have been allowed to cool
sufficiently.
2. Disconnect the wires from the draft inducer and remove it from the stack penetration.
3. Clean the fan blades with a scraper and wire brush.
4. Oil the draft inducer motor according to the manufacturer's recommendations.

Coil Tube Boiler Operator's Manual: Models CB-200-CTB, CB-350-CTB, and CB-500-CTB
IMPORTANT NOTE: When designing the system layout and application for your CTB, keep in mind that it is
NOT suitable for open systems. The Clean Burn CTB has been designed to operate as an ASME Section IV Boil-
er (i.e. closed loop boiler system). Potable water heating (i.e. for domestic or washing purposes) can be accom-
plished by incorporating a heat exchanger into the system.
Special Safety Guidelines for the Design and Installation of Hydronic Systems
Adhere to the following Safety Guidelines when designing and setting up the CTB hydronics system:
• The CTB must be installed on non-combustible flooring.
• The CTB must be installed in accordance with national, state, and local plumbing, heating,
and electrical codes and the regulations of the serving utilities which may differ from this
manual. Authorities having jurisdiction should be consulted before installations are made.
In all cases, reference should be made to the following standards:
(1) Current Edition of American National Standard ANSI/NFPA 31, "Installation of Oil Burning
Equipment" for clearances between boiler, vent connector and combustible material.
(2) Current Edition of American National Standard ANSI/NFPA 211, "Chimneys, Fireplaces,
Vents, and Solid Fuel Burning Appliances" for chimney requirements, type of venting material
and clearances between vent connector pipe and combustible materials.
(3) Current Edition of American Society of Mechanical Engineers ASME CSD-1, "Controls and
Safety Devices for Automatically Fired Boilers" for assembly and operation of controls and safety
devices.
• The heating system must be designed by a competent hydronics contractor, and only persons
knowledgeable in the layout and installation of hydronic heating systems should install this
boiler.
• The boiler must be connected to an approved chimney in good condition. Serious property
damage could result if the boiler is connected to a dirty or inadequate chimney. The interior
of the chimney flue must be inspected periodically through the heating season for any
obstructions. A clean and unobstructed chimney flue is necessary to allow noxious fumes
that could cause serious injury to vent safely and will contribute toward maintaining
the boiler's efficiency.
• It is the responsibility of the installing contractor to see that all controls are correctly
installed and are operating properly when the installation is completed.
• To ensure optimum performance, qualified personnel must perform proper and timely
maintenance on the CTB according to the procedures provided in Section 9 of this manual.
10-1
Coil Tube Boiler Operator's Manual: Models CB-200-CTB, CB-350-CTB, and CB-500-CTB
Heating systems using zone valves, zone pumps, or three-way valves may experience reduced water flow through
the boiler. This condition can cause excessive water temperature rise and unstable boiler operation. The normal
temperature rise across the boiler is 20 oF. Minimum operating temperature for the CTB is 180 oF. To avoid
condensation, the return water temperature should not fall below 140 oF.
The 140 oF Mixing Valve must be installed according to Figure 10B or 10C and must be as close as possible to
the suction side of the boiler circulator. This allows the by-pass loop to function properly. When starting the
boiler from cold (room temperature) the boiler water temperature will be able to come up above 140 oF within 5
to 7 minutes (variance caused by unit settings and type of fuel). As the boiler temperature rises above 160 oF the
Mixing Valve will modulate and allow more system return water to be mixed into the boiler therefore supplying
more hot water to the zones.
System Pressure
The Clean Burn CTB is designed to operate in closed, pressurized hydronic systems. Certain levels of pressure
are required for proper system operation--a minimum of 12 PSI should be maintained on the system where the
boiler supply water temperature is 200 oF or less. If a higher working pressure is required, contact the Clean
Burn Service Department for proper pressure requirements.

In a Primary/Secondary Pumping System (as shown in Figure 10A), the primary loop circulator runs when any
of the zones call for heat. In some system setups, the circulator may run continuously during the heating season.
The circulator pushes hot water past the zone tees; any of the secondary zone pumps can draw hot water out of
the first tee (as though the tee were a boiler). Each zone then returns cooler water through the second tee where it
mixes with the hot water being pushed through by the primary loop circulator. The close positioning of the two
zone tees is crucial to the operation of the system; the tees must be at least 6" but not more than 12" apart.
This allows for circulators of different flow rates to be used in the same system while maintaining proper flow and
functioning.
When designing and setting up the CTB Hydronic System, please be aware of the following options and special
setup requirements:
(1) The boiler circulator (which you may have ordered from Clean Burn for your CTB system) is sized to
ensure a flow of water through the coil tube ONLY; it is NOT sized to be used as a system circulator. The boiler
circulator must be installed according to Figures 10B and 10C, after the mixing valve. An additional circulator
must be installed to flow water through the system and to the boiler.
(2) In low load conditions, Clean Burn recommends the installation of a larger storage tank next to the CTB to
extend the run time and to reduce the occurrence of short cycling. Position the tank close to the boiler to reduce
the required connective piping as shown in sample configuration, Figure 10B.
(3) If hot water is required in the system installation for washing or other related activities, Clean Burn offers
Ergomax Heat Exchangers/Storage Tanks in various sizes. Contact your local Clean Burn representative for
additional details on these CTB system components. Refer to Figure 10C for a sample system configuration using
an Ergomax Heat Exchanger. This configuration is ideal for installations requiring pressure washing, car/truck
washing, etc. The Ergomax unit works well with a CTB because it stores boiler water in the tank and acts as a
buffer (tempering) tank while enabling reduction of short cycling.

ATTENTION: Oxygen contamination of boiler water will cause corrosion of iron and steel boiler
components, and can lead to boiler failure (and void warranty). Causes of oxygen contamination
include:
• Addition of excessive make-up water as a result of system leaks
• Absorption through open tanks and fittings
• Oxygen permeable material in the distribution system
To ensure optimal CTB maintenance and operation, follow these recommendations to eliminate
damaging oxygen contamination:
• Repair system leaks to eliminate the need for the addition of make-up water
• Eliminate open tanks from the system
• Eliminate and/or repair leaky fittings
• Use non-permeable materials in the distribution system
• Isolate the boiler from the water heater system (i.e. wash and potable waters) by installing a
heat exchanger.
Guidelines for Initial Cleaning of the Hydronics System and Maintaining Water Quality
• Clean the boiler with an alkaline cleaner (e.g. soda ash or detergent) as recommended by a
qualified water treatment company.
NOTE: This is necessary to remove oil or other coatings from the tube surfaces. These
protective coatings are commonly applied to new tubes to prevent rusting during storage/
transit and will cause corrosion if left on the tubes during operation of the boiler.
• After cleaning the boiler, drain the system in a manner and to a location that hot water can be
discharged safely.
• Remove plugs from all available locations, and wash the water side of the boiler as
thoroughly as possible using a high-pressure water stream.
• Refill the system with fresh water.
• Test the pH of the water in the system. The pH should be higher than 8.5 but lower than 9.5.
Add appropriate boiler water treatment compounds as recommended by your qualified water
treatment company (if necessary) to bring the pH within the specified range.
• Heat the water in the boiler to 180 oF to de-aerate the water.
After proper and safe CTB burner setup and installation has been accomplished, CTB operation
proceeds as follows:
(a) Refer to Section 6 for instructions on starting the CTB.
(b) Following burner startup, set the operating control dial at 180-200 oF.
ATTENTION: If, during normal operation, it is necessary to add water to your system more than once a year,
consult a qualified service technician to check your system for leaks. A leaky system will increase the volume of
make-up water supplied to the boiler which can significantly shorten the life of the boiler and cause damage to the
boiler.

ATTENTION: Make sure the electrodes are adjusted to the specifications in these diagrams. Correct
clearances must be maintained to avoid stray arcing. The minimum clearance to any ground source is
3/16". Stray arcing results in a weak spark, late burner ignition, and transformer failure.
NOTE: Clean Burn recommends the use of a special tool (CB Part# 70306) to set the retension head.
The burner electrodes should be replaced annually to maintain proper burner performance.
• Install the electrodes according to the setting and specifications in these diagrams.
• Use the shank of a 1/8" drill bit as a feeler gauge to set the spark gap at 1/8".

NOTE: Due to swivel fittings on the air and oil lines, it is not necessary to disconnect these lines when
swinging the burner open.
1. Remove the lock-down nut on the mounting flange bolt.
2. Disconnect the burner power cable.
3. Carefully swing the burner open to its maintenance position.
4. Remove the nozzle from the nozzle adapter with a 5/8" socket.
NOTE: If the nozzle plugs within a few days after cleaning, call your Clean Burn Dealer for service.

Coil Tube Boiler Operator's Manual: Models CB-200-CTB, CB-350-CTB, and CB-500-CTB
(1) A call for heat by the thermostat energizes the DPDT relay which in turn energizes the
circulator delay relay and the boiler loop circulator to establish a flow of water through the
coil.
(2) The low water cut-off "proves" the water level inside the boiler and allows the flow switch to
close. The power then continues from the flow switch through the high limit aquastat,
through the operating aquastat, and then to the burner.
(3) If the burner ignites within approximately 15 seconds and the cad cell sees flame, the burner
will continue to operate until the call for heat is satisfied or the setting of the operating
aquastat is reached.
(4) If the thermostat is not satisfied, but the temperature setting of the operating aquastat is
reached, the burner will stop until the return water drops the water temperature in the boiler
(re-closing the operating aquastat and turning the burner back on).
(5) The boiler loop circulator will operate as long as the thermostat is calling for heat.
(6) The boiler loop circulator circuit includes a delay relay that keeps the circulator operating
approximately ten minutes after the call for heat is satisfied.

3. If control does not operate as described, check the wiring.
Self-test 1 The control performs a “boot-up” test to verify internal operation each time power is applied to the black wire. The amber LED turns
on and the test continues for about 5 seconds. If the test fails, the control turns the amber LED off and repeats this test sequence
until successful.
Stand-by (No call for heat) If Self-test 1 is successful, amber LED turns off and control waits for heat call.
Call for heat Set thermostat and limit to call for heat. Thermostat circuit must be closed and power coming to black wire from limit circuit.
Self-test 2 If a failure occurs in this self-check, the control won’t start and the amber LED blinks 1 second on, 4 seconds off, until serviced or the
problem clears. These failures include CAD cell seeing light, internal fault, or line voltage <90V. See service section.
