Dust or Grease Accumulation
Heavy accumulations of dust or grease can cause the
control to malfunction. Where dust or grease can be a
problem, provide covers for the control to limit
contamination.
Heat
Excessively high temperatures can damage the control.
Make sure the maximum ambient temperature at the
control does not exceed the rating of the control. If the
appliance operates at very high temperatures, use
insulation, shielding, and air circulation, as necessary, to
protect the control. Proper insulation or shielding should
be provided by the appliance manufacturer; verify proper
air circulation is maintained when the appliance is
installed.

Mounting position
The valve can be mounted 0 to 90 degrees in any
direction from the top of the valve facing up, including
outlet facing upward or downward. See Fig. 2. If the valve
is mounted horizontally; the top of the valve must be even
with or above the center line of the piping.
NOTE: A deviation of more than 3° from the OEM's orig-
inal design mounting orientation can result in an
unacceptable change in gas outlet pressure.
See OEM application installation guide.
To prevent blockage due to condensation, the positive air
pressure connection should not be connected to
combustion products.

Applying a jumper across (or shorting) the valve
coil terminals, even temporarily, can burn out the
thermostat or transformer.
Follow the appliance manufacturers instructions if
available; otherwise use these instructions as a guide.
IMPORTANT
These gas controls are shipped with protective
seals over the inlet and outlet tappings. Do not
remove the seals until ready to install adapters
or connect the piping.
Converting Gas Control from Natural Gas
to LP Gas (or LP Gas to Natural Gas)
WARNING
Fire Or Explosion Hazard.
Can cause property damage, severe injury
or death.
VR9205R cannot be converted between LP or
Natural gas. To convert, see appliance
manufacturer for recommendations.
Install Bushings To Control
If bushings are being installed on the control, mount them
as follows:
Bushings
1.
Remove the seal over the control inlet or outlet.
2.
Apply a moderate amount of good quality pipe
compound to the bushing, leaving two end threads
bare. On an LP installation, use compound that is
resistant to LP gas. Do not use Teflon tape.
