SIT Systems

 - Refer to Figure  57  and 

the instructions provided with the kit.  Using 

a Torx T20 (with 1/4" shank and center hole), 

remove and discard the three pressure regulator 

mounting screws.  Remove the pressure regu-

lator, spring, poppet, diaphragm and bushing.  

Discard all removed components

Step 7.

 

Dexen Electronic Valves

 - See Figure 

59  and the instructions provided with the kit.  

Remove and discard the two pressure regula-

tor mounting screws.  Remove the pressure 

regulator and diaphragm.  Discard all removed 

components.  Ensure the provided diaphragm 

is  installed  properly  onto  the  replacement 

pressure regulator and install the new pres-

sure regulator using the new screws supplied 

with the kit.  Tighten screws. 

Step 5.

 Attach manometer to the manifold side 

pressure test fitting and verify manifold pressure 

reads 3.5 inches water column (0.87 kPa) for 

natural gas, and 10.0 inches water column (2.49 

kPa) for propane gas.

Step 6.

  See Figure 58 and remove the pilot 

hood assembly to access the hexed pilot orifice.  

Remove and replace the orifice with the one 

provided with the kit.

Step 10.

 Attach the conversion label provided 

in the conversion kit next to the rating plate on 

the appliance.

Step 11.

 Turn on gas supply and test for gas 

leaks (refer to page 26).

See Figure 60 and replace the pilot orifice as 

follows:  Remove pilot hood assembly to access 

the phillipped pilot orifice.  Remove and replace 

the orifice with the one provided with the kit.  

Exercise extreme care to prevent damage to 

or breakage of the igniter assembly.

All Models

Note:  Use pipe joint compound or Teflon tape 

on all pipe fittings before installing (ensure 

propane  resistant  compounds  are  used  in 

propane applications, do not use pipe joint 

compounds on flare fittings).

Step 8

.  (Refer to Figure 56)

A.

 Remove the orifice from the manifold and 

replace it with the one provided in the kit.  See 

Table 9  for orifice sizes for natural and propane 

models.  Figure 61 illustrates the orifice. 

B.

 Retrieve the burner and slide the venturi 

tube  over the orifice.  Set the shutter adjusting 

opening as shown in Figure 54Page 33.

Step 9.

 Reassemble the remaining components 

by  reversing  the  procedures  outlined  in  the 

preceding steps.
