burner was assembled and tested at the factory before
shipment. If the burner was ordered with a completed
assembled gas train, the train was pressure tested
and electrically checked for proper operation. Where
possible, the gas train or components were shipped in
the same carton as the burner. Check your packing slip
for the number of cartons shipped from the factory.

The burner operates valve during high fire. Select a gas train that has a pressure drop no more on gas (natural or propane). than the available pressure at the gas train inlet minus the 3.4" needed at the butterfly valve. See page 12 for gas train pressure drop information. The Gas mode operation burner is equipped with a 1 ⁄ " gas train unless a larger gas train is ordered.

(The damper must be located in the same space as the appliance.) Install a manual reset spill switch per manu- factuer’s instructions. Wire the switch into the appliance limit circuit to shut off the appliance/burner if sustained downdraft should occur. Refer to the appliance manufacturer’s instruction manual for recommendations regarding the need for a barometric draft regulator.
