The new Valve Box
must
be placed
a minimum of 2-inches from the basket grate legs and mounted on the left side of
the log set. In addition the Switch Box
must
be placed
a minimum of 2-inches from the basket grate legs and mounted
on the right side
of the log set (See figure 4).
NOTE
: If a minimum 4-inch clearance can be maintained from the basket
grate legs then Valve Box or Switch Box can be placed on either side of the log set.
ALL WIRES MUST BE A MINIMUM
OF 2-INCHES AWAY FROM BURNER PAN AT ALL TIMES.
THIS SECTION IS FOR REFERENCE ONLY
The pilot tubing connection and pilot wiring come pre-assembled to the Valve Box. The electronic module and battery
pack come pre-assembled inside the Switch Box.
WIRING FROM THE PILOT ASSEMBLY
1.
The “S” (Sensor) and “I” (Ignitor) wires from the pilot assembly are connected at the factory to the “S” & “I”
terminals on the electtonic module.
NOTE
: The terminal locations in figure 6.
2.
Route the “S” & “I” wires from the pilot assembly to an area that will be away from the pilot or main burner flame
and at least 2-inches from the burner pan.

5.
Bend inlet gas supply line and connect the 3/8” flare fitting to 3/8” inlet connector on the valve kit (Use caution not
to kink the aluminum inlet line when bending to fit to the valve).
6.
Bend 12” stainless flex line and connect to valve outlet. Connect other end to 3/8” flare fitting on burner pan.
CAUTION: Do not let inlet gas line to the valve kit or gas outlet line from the valve kit be placed inside or
overtop of the burner pan. ENSURE HI-TEMP WIRING HARNESS, PILOT ASSEMBLY IGNITION WIRES
AND PILOT TUBING IS LOCATED BEHIND THE BURNER PAN; NOT BURIED UNDER THE SAND AND NOT
IN THE PATH OF THE FLAME.
7.
Turn
ON
gas supply and check all connections for leaks using soapy water solution before lighting the log set.
8.
Follow valve lighting instructions. After pilot is operating check pilot fittings for leaks.
9.
Follow the instructions supplied with the log set to install ember material, basket grate and logs.
10.
Install Damper Clamp (supplied with valve kit) which allows damper to remain slightly open to allow the pilot
gases to vent).
CAUTION:
When installing logs on basket grate ensure no logs lay across and touch the valve or switch boxes.
Some logs, depending on material, can transfer heat through the metal boxes and cause damage to internal
components.
NOTE: For any PROPANE installations see conversion kit instructions.
