Disconnect power supply to
prevent electrical shock and/or
equipment damage.

minus 90 degrees from the vertical.
Mounting location
The distance between the gas valve
and the wall/ground, must be at least
30 cm.
Main gas connection threaded

valves

:
Take care that dirt cannot enter the
gas valve during handling.
:
Ensure the gas flows in the same
direction as the arrow on the housing
of the gas valve.
:
Use a sound taper fitting with thread
according to ISO 7--1(BS 21, DIN
2999) or a piece of new, properly
reamed pipe, free from swarf.
:
Do not thread or tighten the pipe or
pipe fitting too far. Otherwise valve
distortion and malfunction could
result.
:
Apply a moderate amount of good
quality thread compound to the pipe
or fitting only, leaving the two end
EN2R--9012 9412R0--NE
threads bare. PTFE tape may be
used as an alternative.
:
In order to tighten the pipe in the
valve, do not use the actuator as a
lever but use a suitable wrench
operating on the wrench bosses.

Take care that dirt cannot enter the
gas valve during handling.
:
Ensure the gas flows in the same
direction as the arrow on the housing
of the gas valve.

Ensure that inlet and outlet flanges
are in line and separated from each
other enough to allow the valve to be
mounted between them without
damaging the gasket.

Mount gas valve between flanges
using the bolts for each flange.
