De Dietrich GT 123A in practice
The GT 123A is the 3-section size of the GT 120A series, a eutectic cast-iron, three-pass, low-temperature boiler documented in the GT-120A brochure. The printed table gives 94 MBH CSA gas input, 80 MBH CSA output, a 0.65 GPH No. 2 fuel oil input, 5 US gallons of water capacity and a dry weight of 302 lb. The line is approved for direct-vent, Type L (gas-oil) or Type B (gas only) natural-draft venting.
Supply and return are 1-1/4" threaded connections and the vent connection is 5". The boiler is rated ASME 60 psi water with an operating range of 86–194 °F and a 230 °F maximum allowable water temperature; the minimum safety relief capacity printed for this size is 80 MBH. De Dietrich's North American arm, DDR Americas Inc., is in Cambridge, Ontario and states it warehouses and assembles boilers for the USA and Canada.
Best suited to
- Homes and light-commercial buildings whose calculated load fits 80 MBH output
- Low-temperature hydronic systems that benefit from the eutectic cast iron's thermal-shock resistance
- Retrofits using a chimney with Type L or Type B venting
