STOP:
Do not install, replace, or in any way modify the gas valve or the appliance, unless
CERTIFIED and QUALIFIED as a Gas Appliance Service Technician on the appliance this
valve is used on. READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS.

INSTALLATION

Valve configuration inspection

Min Rate Screw
The 630 Eurosit can have one inlet and one outlet plugged.
Inspect the control to determine which inlet and outlet are
plugged. The plugs use o-ring seals and are made of brass.
The replacement control must have the same inlet and outlet
plugged as the original control. Use a 5/16” Allen key to
remove and tigten the plug.

The replacement 630 Eurosit has an On/Off modulating plug

(fig. A) installed. To achieve similar performance as the
original control, remove the plug in the replacement control Minrate Screw Minrate Plug
using a Flathead Screwdriver and set aside. Remove the Min
Rate Screw (fig. B) from the original control and install it into the replacement control in the same
location.

When installation of this product begins…

1. Read all of these instructions carefully. Failure to follow instructionscould damage the product
or cause a dangerous condition.
2. Check the ratings given in the instructions and on the appliance to make certain that the control
is suitable for your application.
3. All operations of installation, calibration, conversion and regulation must be undertaken
exclusively by qualified personnel following the instruction specified in this catalog and those in
the instruction manual of the appliance in which the valve is installed.
4. After installation is complete, verify that the appliance operates as indicated in these 5
instructions.
 WARNING:
Fire or Explosion Hazard.
Can cause property damage, severe injury or death.
ENGLISH

Follow these instructions completely.

1. Turn off gas supply at the appliance service valve before installation, and perform a Gas
Leak Test after the installation is completed.
2. Always install the sediment trap in the gas supply line to prevent contamination of the gas
control.
3. Do not force the control knob. Use only your hand to turn the knob. If the knob does not
move by hand, the valve should be replaced by a trained service technician.

WARNING:
Oxygen Depletion Hazard.
Can cause injury or death by asphyxiation.
Do not use valves for vented appliances on unvented or vent free appliances. Do not use
valves for unvented or vent free appliances on vented appliances.

CAUTION
Electrical shock or equipment damage hazard.
Can shock individuals or short equipment circuitry.
Make sure to disconnect all electrical supplies before beginning the installation process.

IMPORTANT

- These gas controls are shipped with anti-contamination seals over inlets and outlets.
- Do not remove the seals until ready for connection to piping.
- Appliance manufacturer’s instructions supercede any instructions listed in this instruction book.

INSTALL PIPING TO GAS VALVE

All piping must comply with local codes and ordinances or with the National Fuel Gas code (ANSI
Z223.1 NFPA No. 54) whichever applies. Tubing installation must comply with approved standards
and practices. Use appropriately sized fittings when connecting aluminum tubing to the pilot outlet.
1. Use new, clean and correctly reamed pipe free
from burrs,chips, debris and any foreign matter. GAS SUPPLY
When tubing is used, make sure the ends are
TO CONTROL
square and clean. All tubing bends must be smooth
INLET
and without deformation.
3” MIN. DRIP LEG (DOWN)
2. Run pipe or tubing to the valve. If tubing is used,
obtain a tube-to-pipe coupling to connect the
tubing to the valve.
6 3. Install sediment trap (Drip Leg) in the supply line to
the gas valve
INSTALLING THE VALVE

1. Mount the valve in the desired position.

ENGLISH
2. Mount the valve so the flow of gas is consistent with the gas
flow arrows on the valve.
3. Apply a moderate amount of quality pipe compound
(DO NO TUSE TEFLON TAPE) to the pipe only, leaving two
end threads bare. On LP installations, use compound that
resists exposure to LP gas.
4. Remove seals over inlet and outlet if necessary
5. Connect pipe to valve inlet and outlet. Place wrench as
in (fig. A).
6. Thread pipe into the valve until a gas tight seal is Fig. A
achieved. Typically, for NPT thread, penetration is usually no more than the diameter of the
pipe or 2 and 1/4 turns of thread. Valve distortion or mechanical failure can result if the pipe is
inserted too deeply.
7. Connect pilot tubing to valve with appropriately sized fittings.
8. Confirm gas tight seals with gas leak test.
9. Connect thermocouple to safety magnet. Hand tighten, and then rotate 1/4 turn with wrench.

WIRING

Follow the wiring instructions furnished by the appliance manufacturer, if available, or use the
following general instructions. Appliance manufacturers instructions always supercede these
instructions.

All wiring must comply with applicable electrical codes and ordinances.

Disconnect the appliance power source before making any electrical connections to prevent the
possibility of electrical shock or damage to equipment.
1. Check the millivolt rating on the gas valve and make sure it matches the available supply. Install
thermostat and other accessories as required.
2. For the Millivolt Plus, connect thermocouple to convenient upper or lower connection port. Hand
tighten, and then rotate _ turn with wrench.
3. Connect the Thermo-generator leads to TPTH and TP terminals on main operator coil.
4. This valve may only be used in self-generating systems. Use only components specifically
designed for use in a millivolt system.

 OPERATION

Pilot flame ignition

ENGLISH

Start from the “OFF” position. Rotate the control

knob to the “PILOT” position. Press the knob
and light the pilot flame, keeping the knob fully
depressed for thirty (30) seconds or more, until a
strong pilot flame is present. Release the knob
and verify that the pilot flame remains lit.

Igniting the main burner

Turn the control knob to the desired temperature
setting. In the modulating version, the gas path
to the main burner opens when the ambient
temperature is lower than the set point
temperature. In the manual version, the gas
path to the main burner opens immediately when
the knob is rotated to a temperature setting.

Stand-by position
To maintain a flame at the pilot burner with the
main burner off, turn the control knob to the
“PILOT” position.

Turning off
Turn the control knob to the “OFF” position.

CAUTION
After shutting down, wait at least five minutes before re-igniting. This will allow the safety
interlock to reset.

FINAL CHECKS

WARNING:
Fire or Explosion hazard.
Can cause damage to property and severe injury or death.
Do not force the control knob. Use only your hand to turn the knob. If the knob does not move
8
by hand, the valve should be replaced by a trained service technician.
PERFORM GAS LEAK TEST

WARNING:

ENGLISH
Stand away from the main burner while lighting.
Hidden gas leaks can cause flashbacks in the appliance area. Check for gas leaks with rich
soap and water solution any time work is done on a gas system.

GAS LEAK TEST

- Using a solution of soapy water, paint the piping connections which are upstream of the control.
The presence of bubbles indicate a gas leak is present.
- If a leak is detected, tighten the pipe connections and repeat leak test.
- Light the main burner.
- With the main burner in operation, paint all piping connections from the valve with a soap and
water solution.
- If another leak is detected, tighten the connection.
- If after tightening the connections the leak is still present, replace the leaky part and, or valve.
Shut off the main gas supply before attempting replacement of parts or the valve.
- Using the soap and water solution test, the pressure test ports and min rate screw to verify that
no leak is present.
- If a leak is detected tighten the screw and retest.
- If after tightening the pressure test port or min rate screw the leak is still present, shut off main
gas supply and replace the valve.

SHUTDOWN PERFORMANCE TEST

WARNING:
Fire or Explosion Hazard.
Can cause severe injury or death.
Perform the safety shutdown check any time work is done on a gas system.

1. Place the appliance in operation. The pilot and main burners should be lit.
2. Place gas control knob in “PILOT” position. Main burner should extinguish and pilot should
remain lit.
3. Extinguish pilot flame. Pilot gas safety shutoff proves complete shutdown due to the fact the
safety shutoff valve prohibits main burner and pilot gas flow.
4. Wait at least five minutes for the safety magnet to reset and residual gas to clear from the
combustion chamber.
5. Relight pilot burner and operate the system through one complete cycle to ensure all functions
operate correctly.
