Installing Propane Orifice - Models 150 - 285
Remove water heater from wood pallet
1.
After removing the outer shipping carton from the water
heater, remove the parts box.
2.
Remove the front door to access the lag bolts in front of the
unit (FIG. 2-1).
3.
To remove the water heater from the pallet (after removing
the front door):
a.
Remove the two lag bolts from the wood pallet
inside the water heater (FIG. 2-1).
b.
Detach the water heater from the lag bolts in the rear of
the unit, see FIG. 2-1.
Do not drop the water heater or bump the
jacket on the floor or pallet. Damage to the
water heater can result.
For a water heater already installed, you must
turn off gas supply, turn off power and allow
the water heater to cool before proceeding.
You must also completely test the water
heater after conversion to verify performance
as described under Start-up, Section 10 of
this manual. Failure to comply could result
in severe personal injury, death, or
substantial property damage.
For Models 150 - 399 you must install a
propane orifice to operate the Armor water
heater on propane gas. Verify when
installing that the orifice size marking
matches water heater size (Models 150 – 399,
Table 2A).
The 500 Model does not require an orifice
installation for propane operation, but it will
require a valve adjustment.
Models 150 - 285
1. Remove the top and front access covers from the unit (no
tools required for removal).
2. Remove the three screws securing the gas valve to the venturi
(FIG. 2-2).
3. Locate the propane orifice disk from the conversion kit bag.
Verify that the stamping on the orifice disk matches the
water heater size (150 – 285) (see Table 2A above).
Place the orifice into the black rubber grommet in the side
of the gas valve and secure in the valve (FIG. 2-2).
4. Reposition the gas valve against the venturi and replace the
screws (FIG. 2-2) securing the valve to the venturi.
5. After installation is complete, attach the propane conversion
label (in the conversion kit bag) next to the water heater
rating plate. Attach the LP caution label (in the conversion
kit bag) to the left side of the unit in the lower left corner.
6. Replace the top and front access covers.
