INSTALLING THE VALVE
1. Mount the valve in the desired position.
2. Mount the valve so the flow of gas is consistent with the gas
flow arrows on the valve.
3. Apply a moderate amount of quality pipe compound
(DO NO TUSE TEFLON TAPE) to the pipe only, leaving two
end threads bare. On LP installations, use compound that
resists exposure to LP gas.
4. Remove seals over inlet and outlet if necessary
5. Connect pipe to valve inlet and outlet. Place wrench as
in (fig. C).
6. Thread pipe into the valve until a gas tight seal is achieved. Typically, for NPT thread, penetration
is usually no more than the diameter of the pipe or 2 and 1/4 turns of thread. Valve distortion or
mechanical failure can result if the pipe is inserted too deeply.
7. Connect pilot tubing to valve with appropriately sized fittings.
8. Confirm gas tight seals with gas leak test.
9. Connect thermocouple to safety magnet. Hand tighten, and then rotate 1/4 turn with wrench.
