Dear Customer:
Thank you for buying a Linear commercial boiler.
The Linear is a cast iron, oil or gas fired hot water boiler, using the famous 3-pass design. The
boiler is simple, rugged and engineered for ma imum heating efficiency.
We realize that it is not possible to answer all questions about the Linear series boiler in this
manual. Reading this installation manual does not make the reader an e pert in all aspects of
installation and operation, and does not replace the need for a qualified, licensed heating
contractor. We urge you to contact your installing contractor or distributor if you are in question
about any aspect of your boiler's performance. Our main concern is that you are satisfied with
your boiler and its performance. We require that your contractor complete efficiency tests
using instruments.
The controls and accessories listed in this manual are intended to serve as guidelines rather than
specific recommendations. We realize that other makes and models of such devices are
available and can be used as successfully as those we specify. The installing contractor is the
best judge of a system's specific requirements, as well as the local availability of certain makes
and models of controls and accessories. The preceding does not apply, however, to the
equipment that comes with every boiler, such as the overheat control (L4006E) and pressure
relief valve. The installation of the specific devices supplied with every boiler is absolutely
necessary to the safe operation of the boiler and protection of the heating system.
This Linear boiler has a limited warranty, a copy of which is provided with the boiler. Please
be sure to return the warranty registration card as the warranty will be void without your boiler's
serial numbers, date of installation and the name of your installer being on record in our files.
Thank you for purchasing our B-40 Linear series boiler. If you have questions or comments,
please don't hesitate to contact us immediately. Our goal is 100% customer satisfaction.

BIASI B/40
Any appliance that burns natural gas, propane gas, fuel oil, wood or coal is capable of producing
carbon mono ide (CO). Carbon Mono ide (CO) is a gas which is odorless, colorless and tasteless but
is very to ic.
If your BIASI B-40 boiler is not working properly, or is not vented properly, dangerous levels of CO
may accumulate. CO is lighter than air and thus may travel throughout the building. BRIE
EXPOSURE TO HIGH CONCENTRATIONS O CO, OR PROLONGED EXPOSURE TO
LESSER AMOUNTS O CO MAY RESULT IN CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING.
EXPOSURE CAN BE ATAL AND EXPOSURE TO HIGH CONCENTRATIONS MAY
RESULT IN THE SUDDEN ONSET O SYMPTOMS INCLUDING UNCONSCIOUSNESS.
Symptoms of CO poisoning include the following:
Dizziness Vision problems Shortness of breath
Headache Loss of muscle control Unclear thinking
Nausea Weakness Unconsciousness
The symptoms of CO poisoning are often confused with those of influenza, and the highest incidence
of poisoning occurs at the onset of cold weather or during flu season. A victim may not e perience
any symptoms , only one symptom, or a few symptoms. Suspect the presence of carbon mono ide if
symptoms tend to disappear when you leave your home.
The following signs may indicate the presence of carbon mono ide:
* Hot gasses from appliance, venting system, pipes or chimney,
escaping into the living space.
* Flames coming out around the appliance.
* Yellow colored flames in the appliance.
* Stale or smelly air.
* The presence of soot or carbon in or around the appliance.
* Very high une plained humidity inside the building.
If any of the symptoms of CO occur, or if any of the signs of carbon mono ide are present, VACATE
THE PREMISES IMMEDIATELY AND CONTACT A QUALI IED HEATING SERVICE
COMPANY OR THE GAS COMPANY AND THE IRE DEPARTMENT.
To reduce the risk of CO poisoning, have your heating system "tuned up" by a licensed heating
contractor or the gas company - preferably before each heating season. Also have the service
company check your chimney or vent pipes for blockage.
The building should be adequately ventilated, particularly if you have tightly insulated your home.
ONLY QUALI IED, LICENSED SERVICE CONTRACTORS SHOULD PER ORM WORK
ON YOUR BIASI B-40 BOILER.

Locate the boiler to provide sufficient clearance for inspection, servicing and maintenance.
Minimum clearance to construction or combustible materials shouldn't be less than si (6) inches from
the top, sides and rear of unit, and eighteen (18) inches from the flue pipe in any direction. Front
clearance should be at least twenty four (24) inches. When choosing a location for the boiler, take
into consideration the 12” supply manifold on the back of the boiler. Adequate space must be given to
pipe the manifold in and for the smoke pipe to clear the manifold. Greater distances for ease of access
should supersede fire protection clearances. The boiler must be located on a non-combustible floor. A
smooth, level concrete floor is recommended. Locate the boiler as close as possible to the chimney. If
boiler is installed on combustible flooring, consult local authorities for proper method of covering
floor. The boiler must not be installed on carpeting.
Caution: Do not store or use flammable materials, chemicals or flammable liquids,
especially gasoline, in the vicinity of this heating appliance.
The boiler location must provide air for proper combustion and ventilation of the surrounding
area. To burn efficiently, oil requires 30 CFM/GAL. In general, boiler rooms should incorporate two
(2) permanent air supply openings, one commencing within 12 inches of the ceiling, and one
commencing within 12 inches of the floor. These openings should freely communicate with the
outdoors.
OUTSIDE AIR: When combustion air is supplied directly through an outside door or wall,
each opening shall have a free area of one square inch per 4,000 BTUH input for the total input of all
the appliances in the enclosure.
INSIDE AIR: When combustion air is supplied from inside the building, each opening shall
have a free area of one square inch per 1,000 BTUH input for the total of all appliances in the
enclosure. In no case shall the openings be less than 105 square inches each.
In both cases, check manufacturers ratings for louver net free area, and correct for screen
resistance to net free area.
If the boiler is to be installed where the operation of e haust fans, attic fans, kitchen
ventilation systems, clothes dryers or fireplaces may create severe negative vent pressures causing
unsatisfactory combustion and venting, special provisions should be made for additional make-up air
to supply the other air requirements. If building is of tight construction, combustion air requirements
may not be met and combustion air ducts from outside may be necessary. Please refer to NFPA No.

All Linear series boilers are shipped either as an assembled boiler block or a knock-down
boiler block. If the block came unassembled, or if the assembled block needs to be split for installa-
tion purposes, please read the following:
To assemble split blocks, move the sections into a line facing each other. Sections may be slid
along boards placed underneath the sections. Inspect nipple ports for damage or burrs. Remove any
burrs by brushing the port very lightly. Wipe the push nipples and nipple ports with a clean cloth.
Apply a film of nipple compound to both the nipple and port. Install the nipple in the port and then
seal it by hitting it with a rubber mallet. Apply section sealant to one section only and slide sections
together. If the boiler came in sections, you will want to draw the sections together 2 or three at a time
to insure that the blocks are coming together properly. Install the four draw rods and draw the sections
together evenly (measure with yardstick). The longer draw rods should be installed on the top of the
boiler. The shorter draw rods are installed on the bottom of the boiler. The bottom draw rods should
not e tend past the front section. Draw the sections together until sections make iron-to-iron contact
at a point around the top and bottom ports of each section. Check to insure that the combustion cham-
ber is sealed using a flash light or other lighting device. Place the flashlight into the combustion
chamber and look for light on the floor or surrounding walls (this is best done in a dark room). If light
appears out of the boiler use a high temperature caulk to fill in the gaps between the block sections.
DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN DRAW RODS

Good, reliable operation with a minimum of service starts with attention to the small details:
1. Setting the nozzle position and electrodes "by the book" using the manufacturer's gauges.
2. Installing a quality micron filter at the burner.
3. Making careful/tight flare connections without couplings on oil suction line.
4. Checking fuel pump pressure.
5. Checking draft at the breeching to insure it is adequate to overcome flue gas resistance.
6. Setting the air band properly with well maintained instruments. A good target is 11% to 12.5% of (CO
2
) or 6.5%
to 3.8% of (O
2
).
Note: Oil and Gas burners on B40-series boilers cannot be properly commissioned without instruments and gauges.

8. Burner Setup:
Good, reliable operation with a minimum of service starts with attention to the small details:
1. Setting the electrode and flame rod settings against manufacturer's specs to insure proper operation.
2. Installing properly sized gas piping according to BTU input required and length of gas line run.
3. Making sure there is proper manifold pressure before and after the gas valve using a calibrated manometer.
4. Checking draft at the breeching to insure it is adequate to overcome flue gas resistance.
5. Setting the air band properly with well maintained instruments. A good target is 9.5% to 10.5% of (CO
2
) or 5%
to 2.5% of (O
2
) for natural gas, or 10% to 12% of (CO

Gas supply piping is to be sized and installed properly in order to provide a supply of gas sufficient
to meet the ma imum demand without undue loss of pressure between the meter and the boiler. It is
advisable to run a separate gas line from the meter to the gas burner to avoid pressure drops. Consult
with the National uel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1 for proper sizing of gas piping for various lengths and
diameters.
Locate a drop pipe adjacent to, but not in front of the boiler. Locate a tee in the drop pipe at the
same elevation as the gas inlet connection to the boiler. E tend the drop line with a nipple towards the
floor and cap to form a sediment trap. Install a tee handle shut off valve before the tee with sediment
trap and a union after the tee before the combination gas valve.
When installing the boiler, Use black steel pipe and malleable fittings (do not use cast iron parts) with
a suitable pipe dope which is resistant to liquefied petroleum gases.
Check piping for leaks. Always check leaks with a water and soap solution. DO NOT USE A
FLAME FOR CHECKING GAS LEAKS
The boiler and its individual shut-off valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping
during any pressure testing of that piping at test pressures in e cess of 1/2 psi.
9. Gas Line Piping

Piping should consist of:
1. A shut off valve appro imately 6’ away from the unit.
2. A 1/8” plugged NPT tapping for gas pressure measurement preferably on the manual
shut-off valve (as shown or anywhere between the gas valve and the shut off value).
Note: he manual shut off valve and tapping are NO part of the SU-4 Gas Burner.
Please make sure you conform to local and state codes.
3. A gas union.
4. A drip pipe.
Caution: he gas valve should not be subjected to more than ½” PSIG. herefore, the
burner should be isolated during high-pressure gas leak tests. The appliance and its
individual shut off valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system
during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in e cess of ½ psig. The
appliance must be isolated from the gas supply piping by closing its individual man-
ual shut off valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test
pressures equal to or less than ½ psig.

The B-40 Linear boiler is a high efficiency unit that requires proper venting. The boiler must
be vented to the outdoors by means of a tile lined masonry or an approved pre-fabricated chimney of
the size and height recommended by the manufacturer or by a listed "power venting" unit which
provides draft by mechanical venting .
The chimney discharge opening must be located at least 24 inches above any part of the
building structure within 10 feet of the chimney. Be sure the chimney and smoke pipe don't become
obstructed by squirrels, bird nests, soot buildup, chimney liner deterioration, etc. The "power ventor"
system should be installed on the leeward side of the building. Very specific requirements must be
met concerning clearances from combustibles and distances from doors and windows. Please consult
with manufacturer of "power ventor" for this information. In any case, the "ventor" must be installed
by a licensed burner mechanic and done in accordance with local codes. The B-40 boiler is a very low
stack temperature boiler (between 320 and 400F gross stack temp.) so caution should be used when
connecting to an outside built chimney. Should you have concern that the flue gases could condense,
then you should consider using a listed, "power venting" unit. If "power venting" is used to discharge
flue gases, then the power vent unit should be equipped with a postpurge control as well as delay-off,
timing control to prevent problems with fogging and nozzle post drip.
Note: 88% steady state efficiency is achieved when flue gas contains over 12.5% CO2 and the gross
stack temp. is below 350F.
The smoke-pipe connection from the boiler to the chimney should be as short as possible, with
a minimum number of elbows. The vent pipe must have a vertical rise of at least 1/4 inch per foot of
horizontal run. The vent pipe must be of the same diameter as the flue outlet on the boiler. The
chimney connector should have a minimum thickness of 24 gauge, corrosion resistant (galvanized)
steel, assembled with a minimum of three (3) sheet-metal screws, and sealed with high temperature
silicon at each joint. In most cases a barometric draft control isn't recommended as the B-40 is
designed to be pressure-fired. However, one may be needed if the boiler is being used in a high draft
situation.

The supply and return manifolds for B-40 Linear boilers are 2 1/2” male NPT. Be sure to
provide unions and gate valves at the manifold inlet and outlet of the boiler, so the boiler may be
readily isolated for service.
Install the provided pressure relief valve so the discharge is piped directly to a drain, if
possible. If not, the discharge should be piped to the floor. In either case, the discharge pipe should be
of the same diameter as the outlet of the relief valve, with no valves or obstructions to impede
overflow from the boiler. The installation locations on the manifold for the Pressure Relief Valve, the
Temperature/Pressure Gauge as well the Honeywell L4006E Aquastat can be seen on the following
page.
Install manual and/or automatic air venting devices at the high points in the system to eliminate
trapped air.
The weight of all piping should be supported by suitable hangars and floor stands, not by the
boiler.
It is recommended that the make-up water line have a backflow preventer and a pressure-
reducing valve to reduce line pressure to 10 to 15 psi installed adjacent to the boiler.
NOTE: If the heating system is to be filled with antifreeze, use only formulations e pressly made for
hydronic heating systems (such as propylene glycol). Do not use automotive types of antifreeze
(ethylene glycol). Use of antifreeze will alter system output and characteristics. Consult factory rep's
for details or assistance.
Clearance for hot water pipes are 1 inch to combustibles.
11. Piping:
1. Pierce a 5/8” hole into the vent pipe near the appliance outlet. Remove one of the securing nuts
from the pipe of the safety switch. Tighten the other securing nut onto the pipe as far as possible.
2. Insert the threaded pipe end into the pierced hole, then install the securing nut, then install the se-
curing nut, which was removed in step 1, and tighten securely.
3. Please consult the wiring section of this manual for the wiring of the blocked flue switch.

NOTE: All piping, boiler controls, gauges and valves must be installed before the jacket has been
assembled on the boiler. Refer to the following page to clarify these boiler jacket assembly
instructions.
Insert the separate piece of insulation (# 92) on top of boiler so the entire top and sides of boiler
are covered. Use plastic strapping to secure the insulation in place. Mount the panel installation
bracket (#82) onto the draw-rods on the upper front of the boiler. Install the si spacers (#86) onto the
draw-rods. Two on the upper draw rods in the front and the remaining spacers onto the draw-rods in
the back of the boiler. Install the rear insulation (#101) onto the boiler. Place the side panels (#66,52)
onto the boiler making sure the draw rod spacers are between the side panels and the boiler casting.
Tighten the sides of the casing to the panel installation bracket (#82) using sheet metal screws. Screw
two studs (#90) into the bottom front of the boiler and screw on the threaded he spacers (#87) onto
the studs. Attach the lower mounting bracket (#83) to the boiler by using two bolts (#89) and screw-
ing them into the threaded he spacers. Then using sheet metal screws, attach the lower mounting
bracket to the sides of the casing. Slide the control panel (#110) onto the casing from the top and se-
cure it to the control panel support (#82) using sheet metal screws. Attach the rear panels (#84,85)
using sheet metal screws. Place the top panel (#76) onto the sides of the casing and assure that the
pins on the sides are aligned with the retaining holes on the top casing panel. Finally attach the front
panel (#81) onto the casing by aligning the retaining pins with the retaining holes. Push to insure a
positive connection.

The electricity to the boiler shall come from a dedicated breaker in the electric service bo . A
service switch should be mounted on the side of the boiler so the burner man can service the burner
and controls. The electrical wiring should be routed so as not to interfere with normal servicing of the
boiler. Wiring done in the field between devices not attached to boiler shall conform with the
temperature limitations for type T wire (63F/35C) or other specified wire as applicable when installed
in accordance to manufacturer's
instructions and wiring diagrams.
Please refer to the wiring section of this manual for instructions on wiring the supplied control
panel.
