achieved by adjusting the gas control, check gas control

inlet pressure using a manometer at inlet pressure tap. If

inlet pressure is in the nominal range (refer to Table 5),

replace gas control. Otherwise, take the necessary steps

to provide proper gas pressure to the control.

VS820C,P; VS821C (Step-Opening Pressure Regulator)

1. Check  the  full  rate  manifold  pressure  listed  on  the

appliance nameplate. Gas control full rate outlet pressure

should match this rating.

2. With main burner operating, check gas control outlet

flow rate using the meter clocking method or outlet pres-

sure using a manometer connected to the outlet pressure

tap on the control. Refer to Fig. 3 or 4.

3. If necessary, adjust pressure regulator to match ap-

pliance  rating.  Refer  to  Table  5  for  factory  set  nominal

outlet pressure and adjustment range.

a. Remove  pressure  regulator  adjustment  cap

screw.

b. Using screwdriver, turn inner adjustment screw

clockwise

     to increase or counterclockwise

to decrease gas pressure to burner.

c. Always  replace  cap  screw  and  tighten  firmly  to

ensure system functions properly.

4. If  desired  outlet  pressure  or  flow  rate  cannot  be

achieved by adjusting the gas control, check gas control

inlet  pressure  using  a  manometer  upstream  of  the  gas

control. If inlet pressure is in the nominal range (refer to

Table 5), replace gas control. Otherwise, take the neces-

sary steps to provide proper gas pressure to the control.

5. Carefully check burner lightoff at step pressure. Make

sure burner lights smoothly and without flashback to ori-

fice. Make sure all ports remain lit. Cycle burner several

times, allowing at least 30 sec. between cycles for regula-

tor to resume step function. Repeat after allowing burner

to cool. Readjust full rate outlet pressure if necessary to

improve lightoff characteristics.

IMPORTANT

The V5308 on the VS820D is not field adjustable.

The HI or LOW flame setting is selected by position-

ing the white knob on the regulator. Refer to Fig. 10.

Fig. 10—HI and LOW settings for VS820D.

1. Check the LOW flame setting listed on the appliance

nameplate. Gas control LOW flame setting should match

this rating.

2. With main burner operating, check gas control outlet

flow rate using the meter clocking method or outlet pressure

using a manometer connected to the outlet pressure tap on

the control. Refer to Fig. 3 or 4.

3. Check gas control inlet pressure using a manometer

at inlet pressure tap. If inlet pressure is in the nominal range

(refer to Table 5), replace gas control. Otherwise, take the

necessary  steps  to  provide  proper  gas  pressure  to  the

control.

4. Carefully check burner lightoff at LOW flame setting.

Make sure burner lights smoothly and without flashback to

orifice. Make sure all ports remain lit. Cycle several times

and repeat after allowing burner to cool.

5. Check  the  HI  flame  setting  listed  on  the  appliance

nameplate  and  repeat  the  above  steps  for  the  HI  flame

setting.
