Installation
WHEN INSTALLING THIS PRODUCT…
1. Read these instructions carefully. Failure to follow
them could damage the product or cause a hazardous condi-
tion.
2. Check the ratings given in the instructions and on the
product to assure the product is suitable for your application.
3. Assure installer is a trained, experienced service tech-
nician.
4. After installation is complete, use these instructions to
check out product operation.
WARNING
FIRE OR EXPLOSION HAZARD CAN
CAUSE PROPERTY DAMAGE, SEVERE
INJURY, OR DEATH
Follow these warnings exactly:
1. Disconnect power supply before wiring to prevent
electrical shock or equipment damage.
2. To avoid dangerous accumulation of fuel gas,
turn off gas supply at the appliance service valve
before starting installation, and perform Gas
Leak Test after completion of installation.
3. Do not bend pilot tubing at gas control or pilot burner
after compression fitting has been tightened because
gas leakage at the connection can result.
4. Always install sediment trap in gas supply line
to prevent contamination of gas control.
5. Do not force the gas control knob. Use only your
hand to push down the reset button or turn the
gas control knob. Never use any tools. If the gas
control knob or reset button will not operate by
hand, replace the gas control using a qualified
service technician. Force or attempted repair can
result in fire or explosion.
CAUTION
Never apply a jumper across or short the valve coil
terminals. This may burn out the heat anticipator in
the thermostat.
IMPORTANT:
1. These gas controls are shipped with protective seals
over inlet and outlet tappings. Do not remove seals
until ready to connect piping.
2. When a gas control is installed external to the appli-
ance, a conduit cover MUST be installed. Make sure
that condui
t cover is placed over the flange before
rotating conduit cover into position.
Follow the appliance manufacturer’s instructions if avail-
able; otherwise, use the instructions provided below.
CONVERTING BETWEEN NATURAL AND LP GAS
WARNING
FIRE OR EXPLOSION HAZARD CAN
CAUSE PROPERTY DAMAGE, SEVERE
INJURY, OR DEATH
Do not use a gas control set for natural gas on LP gas
or a gas control set for LP gas on natural gas.
To convert a gas control from natural gas to LP gas or
from LP gas to natural gas, contact your Honeywell
representative.
Convert standard- or slow-opening gas controls from
one gas to another with a conversion kit (ordered sepa-
rately). Order part number 393691 to convert from natural
to LP gas. Order part number 394588 to convert from LP
to natural gas. Step-opening gas controls cannot be con-
verted.
INSTALL ADAPTERS TO CONTROL
If adapters are to be installed on the gas control, mount
them as follows:
Flanges
1. Choose the appropriate flange for your application.
2. Remove seal over gas control inlet or outlet.
3. Assure the O-ring is fitted in the groove of flange. If
the O-ring is not attached or is missing, do not use flange.
4. With O-ring facing gas control, align the screw
holes on the gas control with the holes in the flange. Insert
and tighten the screws provided with the flange. See Fig.
1. Tighten the screws to 25 inch pounds of torque to
provide a gas-tight seal.
Bushings
1. Remove seal over gas control inlet or outlet.
2. Apply moderate amount of good quality pipe com-
pound to bushing, leaving two end threads bare. On LP
installation, use compound resistant to LP gas. Do
not
use
Teflon tape.
3. Insert bushing in gas control and thread pipe care-
fully into bushing until tight.
Complete instructions below for piping, installing gas
control, connecting pilot tubing, thermocouple and wir-
ing. Make certain the leak test you perform on the control
after completing the installation includes leak testing the
adapters and screws. If you use a wrench on the valve after
flanges are installed, use the wrench on only the flange,
not on the control.
USING ADAPTERS TO SOLVE SWING RADIUS
PROBLEMS
In some field service applications, it is difficult or
impossible to thread the gas control onto the gas supply
pipe because of space limitations. This problem can be
resolved in many applications by using an adapter. Install
the adapter on the end of the supply pipe in place of the gas
