What actually separates them

Both sizes share the Logano G515 design: Buderus cast-iron sections with Thermostream return-water mixing, forced-draft oil, gas or combination burner, 248 °F maximum permissible supply temperature and 87 psi maximum operating pressure. Minimum flow is none, per the manual's operating conditions.

The technical data table gives each size an output range: nominal output 685.8-818.9 MBH on the /240 rising to 1,555.9-1,740.2 MBH on the /510, with combustion output 735.7-886.1 to 1,665.8-1,869.2 MBH. Section count runs 7 to 12.

Physical rows: net weight 2,800 to 4,542 lb (packaging adds 6-8%) and boiler water content 68.2 to 115.7 US gal. The G515 is discontinued and documented in the US commercial-discontinued archive with installation/service and operating manuals plus the G315/G515/G615 brochure.
