Wiring
!
WARNING: Risk of Electrical Shock.
Disconnect the power supply before making
electrical connections to avoid electrical shock or
equipment damage. Ensure that the operating
voltage is identical to the information on the product
identification label.
The BGD258 valve is supplied with 3-tab or 2-tab
electrical connections. The solenoid coils are male
tabs and electrical connections should be made using
6.35 x 0.8 mm (1/4 in.) female, fully insulated push-on
terminals. The earth ground is clearly labeled.
The electrical wiring to a twin solenoid valve from an
electronic intermittent proven pilot ignition system is
comprised of two lines; a common and an independent
earth ground. Wiring can be done using a single 4-wire
cable. The wiring connections for a 4-wire cable are
shown in Figure 5.
Route the electrical cable for the valve solenoid from
the burner sequence control to the valve and make
wiring connections in accordance with Figure 5.
Note: Electrical connections can also be made using
pre-wired electrical plugs (DIN 43650 Form B
[ISO 4400]).
Note: All wiring must be in accordance with national
and local electrical codes and regulations.

WARNING: Risk of Fire or Explosion.
Follow this or an equivalent checkout procedure
after installation. Before leaving the installation,
verify that the gas valve functions properly and that
the system has no gas leaks. Gas leaks can lead to
an explosion or fire, and may result in severe
personal injury or death.
IMPORTANT: All adjustments must be made in
conjunction with the gas appliance and in
accordance with the appliance manufacturer’s
instructions. Only authorized personnel should make
adjustments.
!
WARNING: Risk of Fire or Explosion.
The minimum flow rate of the valve must not be
adjusted below the minimum safe working rate of the
appliance. This may cause gas leaks, which can
lead to an explosion or fire and may result in severe
personal injury or death.
Make sure all components are functioning properly by
performing the following test:
1. Test all joints and connections for leaks with a
soap solution.
2. Close the main upstream shutoff valve and wait at
least 5 minutes for unburned gas to escape from
the appliance, and then reopen the shutoff valve.
3. Turn on the main electrical power switch and close
the thermostat contacts. The appliance should operate
in accordance with the manufacturer’s specified
sequence of operation.
4. Turn the thermostat to a low dial setting to open
the contacts. All burner flames should be extinguished.
Repeat Steps 3 and 4 at least three times.
5. Return the thermostat to a normal setting before
leaving the installation.
