American Radiator & Standard Sanitary

Does anyone want to venture a guess on the age of this old steam boiler.

"American Radiator & Standard Sanitary" and "B9" "11 747" "F" is cast into the boiler (without quotation marks).

On the plate:
American Standard
Oakmont
No. 86
1B J4 series
Net square feet of radiation without baffles not to exceed: steam 560, water 1010.
Firing rate / hour 2.0 gallons
202 valve capacity

I'm guessing about 60 years. Sorry no pics.

I'm having a new Buderus boiler G115-34 with Slantfin baseboard and indirect hot water installed. So this steam gem will disappear within a few days.
Thanks, Bob

    Your guess is probably pretty close. Here is a picture and ratings from "Hydronic Rating Handbook".
