Burnham XG2000 Draft Motor

Member Posts: 2
I have an older Burnham XG2000 gas boiler. Its old yes but works fine. Recently the draft induction motor gave out and I need a replacement ASAP, or a motor that can be substituted for the oem one. What I need is a FASCO Motor 7021-6960 from the motor info label ( Fasco 8116066 from the Burnham paperwork.) Any iinfo would be helpful. Thanks

Thank you for pointing that one out, it's similar, but not quite the same.0

The xg2000 if I remember right is a cast iron wall hung boiler Burnham made in the late 80's. Neat unit.
I have worked on one.
Had ribbon burners in it.
May be time to move on w/ a different boiler.

There where two motors available for the XG2000. One for the XG2003 and 2004, and one for the larger boilers XG2005 and 2006.
They are not interchangeable. The flange to bolt to the boiler was different size and rpm's of the fan was different.
US Boiler does not have anything and I know one guy bought one and after he installed it the boiler would not fire. The RPM's were a good bit higher so it was moving too much air. I suggested he take it off and return it.
His comment was the distributor said it would fit. I said it fits but does not work.0 -
I found part #6110122 in a 2005 manual. As of that date, the XG2000 had been discontinued. I talked to my rep this morning, and that number did not register. Another concern though. What type of venting material was used? Many of the XG2000's were vented in Plexvent. It was a thin walled, semi-opaque dark plastic piping. Discontinued and recalled many years ago for carbon monoxide leaks. If you have that venting, it must be replaced with AL29-4C stainless steel immediately. Last time I bought a blower for that model, I had to ask if it was made of solid gold.0
