VR8300A Continuous Pilot Combination
APPLICATION
These continuous pilot gas controls are used in gas-fired
appliances with capacities up to 200 cfh at 1 in. wc
pressure drop (5.7 cmh at 0.25 kPa) on natural gas.
Included are a manual valve, safety shutoff, two automatic
operators, and a pressure regulator. See Table 2 for
temperature range and regulator type.
The VR8300 setup for natural gas includes a 39369 LP
Conversion Kit. The kit contains a new cap screw, a
pressure regulator adjustment screw, a tapered spring and
a conversion label. The control must be equipped with a
standard servo pressure regulator. Step-opening gas
controls cannot be converted.
