Instructions for checking valve shutoff:

1) Locate the 1/8” NPT pressure tap on the combination valve (FIGURE 5).

2) With the manual valve turned off to prevent flow to the gas valve, connect a

manometer to the 1/8” outlet pressure tap in the valve.

NOTE: A manometer (fluid-

filled gauge) is recommended.

3) Turn the manual valve to the ON position and the heater OFF. Use your finger to

fully block the main burner orifice for several seconds. Observe the manometer

with the orifice blocked. If any pressure is indicated, the gas valve is leaking.

A leaking gas valve must be replaced before the heater is put back in

operation.

Function: The gas valve controls modulation and

the gas pressure switch monitors gas pressure to

control operation of the two-speed venter.
Service: The modulation gas valve and switches

have no field maintenance requirements except

careful removal of external dirt accumulation and

checking of wiring connections.
Use only factory-authorized parts.
Location: See FIGURE 1A, page 5, for location.

CAUTION: DO NOT

bottom out the gas

This can result in

excess overfire and

failure.

Modulating Gas Valve -

Options AG58, D12G

The gas train has a ball valve with an actuator (see

FIGURE 6) to control gas flow. The

ball valve and actuator are located downstream of the combination single-stage valve

as shown in

FIGURE 4.

Carefully clean external dirt accumulation from the actuator.

Valve (Ball Valve and

Inspect the position of the ball valve shaft.

In the fully open position, the dash marks on the top of the shaft should be aligned

with the gas piping.

In the fully closed position, the dash marks on the top of the shaft should be

aligned at a 90° angle across the gas piping.

If the ball valve shaft is not properly aligned or if the manifold pressure does not match

the settings in the chart started below, the ball valve will need to be adjusted.
