GAS CONNECTIONS 

 

When threads are tightened, the valve must be held 
at  the  designated  clamping  areas 

(see  figure  18).

  

DO  NOT  apply  pressure  to  top  casting  or  plastic 
cover. 
 

Connection Main Gas (Tubing connections) 

1.  Do NOT use pipe joint compound or  
 

Teflon®/PTFE tape. 

2.  Slip nut and ferrule over

 

tubing. 

3.  Slide nut and ferrule into place, and insert  
 

tubing into inlet/outlet connection until it  

 

bottoms. Turn until finger-tight. 

4.  Use a wrench to tighten nut about 1 turn beyond  
     finger tight. 

 
Connection Main Gas (Pipe Connections) 

1.  Do NOT use Teflon®/PTFE tape. 
2.  Pipe to be inserted into the valve must be the  
 

proper thread length and to gauge. Thread  

 

that IS cut too long can cause distortion or  

 

malfunction if inserted too deeply. 

3.  Apply a moderate amount of approved  
     pipe\sealant to the pipe only, leaving the    
     two end threads bare. 
3.  Connect pipe to valve inlet and outlet.

PERFORM INITIAL GAS LEAK TEST 
 

1.  Check carefully for gas leaks immediately after  
 

the appliance has been installed and  the gas  

 

turned on. 

Do this before attempting to operate  

 

the appliance or other gas burning device.

 

1.  Use an approved non-corrosive leak detection  
 

fluid, or other approved leak detection method,  

 

around the diaphragm flanges, pipe connections,  

 

seal cap, and all other joints.  Bubbles indicate a  

 

leak. 

2.  If no leakage is detected, proceed with the  

instructions  listed  on  page  21  to  light  the  main 
burner  and  perform  a  secondary  leak  check  of 
the appliance gas supply system. 

5.  If a leak is detected, tighten pipe connections  
 

(including adapters) according to "GAS  

 

CONNECTIONS" (page 18).

  

 

 

WARNING 

Absolutely no leakage should occur, otherwise  
there  is  a  danger  of  fire  or  explosion  depending 
upon conditions. Never use if leakage is detected. 

 
 
Pre-Ignition Checks 
 

WIRING CONNECTIONS 

(See 

figure 15

, page 17) 

 
•   Assure all components are connected  according 

to the wiring diagram. 

•   When GV60 components are installed, make  
 

sure they are not exposed to dirt, oil. grease or  

 

other chemical agents. 

•   Do NOT permit foreign particles under plastic  
 

cover. 

 

Thermocouple Circuit 
 

Total  resistance  of  thermocouple  circuit  should  be 
minimized to ensure proper operation. 
 
NOTICE:  Keep  connection  of  the  Mertik  Maxitrol 
interrupter  block  interrupter  block  and  thermocouple 
clean  and  dry.  Avoid  severe  bending  of  the 
thermocouple  tubing  during  installation  (min.  1" 
radius:2.5  cm)  as  this  may  cause  it  to  fail.    If  the 
Mertik Maxitrol interrupter block must be removed for 
any reason, following the steps below to re-install: 
 
•   Tighten interrupter block into valve1/4 turn  
 

beyond finger tight (2...3 Nm).
