Connect pipe to valve inlet and outlet. When threads are tightened, the valve must be held at the designated
points (see fig.M3). Do not apply pressure to top casting or plastic cover. Check all connections for leaks
Connection Pilot Gas (Tubing Connections)
1. Ensure tubing end is square and free from burrs.
2. Insert pilot tubing into pilot outlet using fitting provided until it bottoms, and turn finger tight.
Do not use pipe
joint compound.
3. Turn with wrench until you shear off the ferrule. Turn an additional ¾ turn to make a gastight seal.
4.
Connect other end of tubing to pilot burner according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

PERFORM GAS LEAK TEST
WARNING
Do not overtighten connections. Overtightening can damage the control body resulting in leakage or control
malfunction.
1. Using a clean brush, apply an approved leak test solution to the pipe connections. Bubbles indicate a leak.
2. If a leak is detected, tighten pipe connections.
3. Light the main burner.
4. With the main burner in operation, apply an approved leak test solution to all pipe connections (including
adapters) and the valve inlet and outlet. Bubbles indicate a leak.
5. If a leak is detected, tighten pipe connections (including adapters).
6. Replace parts if the leak cannot be stopped.
WIRING CONNECTIONS
WARNING
Wiring of valve and receiver must be completed before starting ignition. Failure to do so could damage
electronics.
Total resistance of the thermocouple circuit should be minimised to assure proper operation.
When GV60 components are installed, make sure they are not exposed to dirt, oil, grease or other chemical
agents.
Do not permit foreign particles under plastic cover.
Wiring must comply with diagram.
Place ON/OFF switch (if equipped) where it is easily accessible for the User.
Thermo Circuit
NOTE:
The use of the Mertik Maxitrol interrupter block is recommended with the following connections.
Keep connection of Interrupter Block and Thermocouple clean and dry. Avoid severe bending of the
Thermocouple tubing during installation (min. 1” radius; 2.5cm) as this may cause it to fail.
Fasten ring terminals from Thermo Current Cable #1 and Thermo Current Cable #2 (or optional ON/OFF Switch
with soldered cable) tightly on the receiver with screws provided.
