90%AFUE EFFICIENCYAFUE EFFICIENCYQUANTUM 90-200NATURAL OR PROPANE GAS-FIRED BOILERSThe New Quantum 90-200 hot water boilerby Dunkirk delivers all the benefits of theQuantum 90-100 plus added features that willappeal to every homeowner. Like the Q90-100,it achieves the optimum combination of highefficiency, innovative technology, and simplicityof design, making it an ideal choice for today'sheating customer.Remarkable 90% AFUE EfficiencyThe Q90-200 dramatically reduces fuelconsumption and pays for itself withsubstantial annual fuel savings. Its efficiencyis increased beyond 90% when used in lowtemperature systems, such as radiant systems(see Chart 1 below).Revolutionary Cast Aluminum“Mono Block” Heat ExchangerThis one-piece heat exchanger designeliminates leaks that can occur between sectionsof multi-piece heat exchangers. The greaterthermal conductivity of cast aluminum transfersheat three times faster than conventional castiron, producing enormous gains in heat-upspeed and operating efficiency. Also, thepackaged boiler weighs only 284 pounds foreasier installation.Safe, Economical CPVCand PVC Vent PipeCooled flue gas can be safely vented throughinexpensive readily available and easy to installPVC, after 5' of CPVC provided with the unit.The air intake also utilizes PVC pipe.Simplified ControlsThe Quantum 90-200’s control design isengineered to maximize reliability. TheQ90-200 incorporates an integrated boilercontrol with high limit and low watercut-off for operation, safety and diagnostics.Ignition is provided by a hot surface igniterand a single stage gas valve. Dual switchesensure air intake and exhaust vents are clear.All components are easily accessible throughthe removable door.Sealed Combustion, Direct-VentForced Draft SystemUnlike conventional atmospheric boilers,the Q90-200 draws fresh air from outdoorsfor combustion, instead of air from insidethe home. Therefore it does not competewith building occupants for its air supply.With this design the Q90-200 runs quieterand more efficiently than a traditional boiler.Environmentally FriendlyThe Q90-200's direct-vent system, premixgas burner and low flame temperaturereduce CO and NOx emissions (acid rain andsmog components) by more than 30% and50% respectively.Ideal for Use withRadiant SystemsWhen used in combination with radiantsystems, which use low supply and return watertemperatures, the Q90-200's efficiency isincreased beyond 90%. Unlike cast iron boilers,the Q90-200 does not require a return bypassor injection pumping system to preheat returnwater prior to entering the heat exchanger.This saves on material and labor costs since thecast aluminum heat exchanger works best atlow water temperatures.Chart 1Quantum 90-200 Performance100959085807590 110 120 130 150 160Efficiency,%Return Water Temperature,°F■ Quantum 90-200■ Non-Condensing
