David, first let me say its always nice to see your name come across the threads here. Good to see you my friend.
Depending on the type of expansion tank you may be right it may be installed incorrectly. The relief valve they sent you sounds like its for a water heater not a boiler. Send it back and let them know youre not in the business of making rockets out of heating systems :)

hey David
sounds like you have a relief valve for a water heater not a boiler. The 200,000 Btu rating is ok but your going to want a 30 pound relief so that the valve will open should the pressure exceeds 30 psi. Best Wishes J.Lockard0
