ASME
Pool Heaters
Raypak offers its complete line of residential gas heaters
in an ASME version. Raypak has state inspectors on-site
daily performing certifications for their pool and commercial
boiler production that may require ASME. Being in the
boiler business for over 50 years truly makes Raypak
the leader for your commercial needs.
Why
ASME?
Some local codes require that public pools, pools
that are in a condominium and apartment or other commercial
application be ASME certified. ASME stands for American
Society of Mechanical Engineers. They are a non-profit
group which sets many industrial and manufacturing
standards. A pool heater that is made to ASME standards
will perform to a set of specifications as determined
by ASME, specifically in relation to the operating
water pressure the appliance can handle. Each and
every ASME heat exchanger that goes into a Raypak
heater is certified by a state inspector to make sure
it complies with the ASME code for that particular
product.
Cast
Iron Glass-lined Header
Raypak applies its years of commercial boiler experience
to the design of its cast iron glass-lined headers.
A metal header design allows for the higher working
pressures required by ASME. All ASME headers are inspected
upon arrival at Raypak and each lot (pour date) tested
by an independent laboratory. Only after the material
passes stress analysis and metal composition tests
is it approved for use in an ASME unit.
All
Copper Fin Tube Heat Exchanger
All Raypak RP2100 ASME gas heaters come standard with
.065" wall integral copper finned tubes. This
tubing is over 50% thicker in wall thickness than
standard tubing. Since the fins are integral to the
tube, maximum heat transfer is attained. The fin tubing
is made from one piece of extruded copper tube, not
from separate fins attached to the copper tubes. Every
RP2100 has the same robust design tube bundle that
is used in Raypak's large gas commercial boilers.
Built to last, built Raypak tough.
CPVC
2" Water Connections
Standard with every RP2100 is a set of 2" slip
fit CPVC water connections to make your installation
secure and effortless. These couplings screw into
the 2" flanged header. You can also direct plumb
your copper pipe into the flanged header.
Condensation
Protection
Standard on all RP2100 models is Raypak's Unitherm
Governor, which is like an automatic bypass. The Unitherm
Governor automatically regulates the water flow to
help keep the water temperature in the heat exchanger
above 105°F.
Hi
Flow Rates
No need to worry about large pumps or high flow systems.
The RP2100 comes with an automatic bypass built into
the header. The RP2100 can handle up to 125 GPM.
ISO
9001
Raypak is proud to be a ISO 9001 registered manufacturing
plant. One more reason why Raypak is number onein
the heater industry today.
End-of-Line
Test
Every Raypak gas pool heater is plumbed and test fired
before it is put in the carton. This ensures that
your heater will fire right out of the box and continue
to give you years of trouble-free operation.
Quality
Checkpoints
The Raypak assembly process includes 6 final assembly
quality checkpoints that help to ensure that each
and every Raypak RP2100 is built correctly, and built
to last.
CSA
Certified
All of Raypaks products are CSA certified. The RP2100
is tested by CSA to the ANSI Z21.56 standard.
