If it is low, follow
Gas Valve
Access Cover
Before operation, check the water level and
jacket pressure.
2.5 Pre-Commissioning Check
a) Prior to operation, clean out kettle pan
thoroughly using hot water and detergent.
Rinse pan thoroughly.
b) Remove all literature and packing materials
from the interior and exterior of the unit.
c) Ensure the open end or the elbow at the
outlet of the safety valve is directed down. If
not, turn the elbow to the correct position.
See detailed Instructions on Page 11 for
Safety Valve installation and operation.
2.5.1 Lighting Sequence
From Initial Start Up:
a) Put a small amount of water in kettle pan.
b) Ensure gas and electricity mains are “on.”
b) Check the pressure gauge. If it does not
show 20 or more inches of vacuum (that is,
a reading of 20 to 30 below zero) see
"Jacket Vacuum" (Paragraph 3.2).

CORRECTLY AND CARRY OUT ANY NECESSARY ADJUSTMENTS AS DETAILED IN SECTION 1.
ALWAYS CHECK FOR GAS SOUNDNESS AFTER CARRYING OUT ANY SERVICING OR EXCHANGE
OF GAS CARRYING COMPONENTS.
NOTE: 1. When replacing wiring connections refer to the wiring diagram contained on the unit and within
this manual.
2. When any threaded gas connection is disturbed for any reason, the threads must be resealed with
appropriate gas leak prevention sealant that is suitable for the type of gas. Unified Brands/Groen
recommends gas sealant compound such as Locktite® 243 or Unified Brands part number 122002.
Servicing and Conversion
Section 3
IMPORTANT
After Servicing
a) Test for gas soundness as specified in
IGE/UP1 as appropriate after any gas
connection has been disturbed.
b) If leaks are found, disconnect the mating parts,
clean the threads and apply recommended
sealant as specified in Note 2 above.
c) Check for correct operation, as appropriate
(see commissioning of appliance).
WARNING - Do not leave any wood splinter
or bristles from brush in the burner or injector.
Fire could result.
Regular Servicing Procedures
The following must be serviced at regular intervals.
Burners
The burner should be cle
maintain maximum performance. Burners are
best cleaned with a wire brush and any blocked
parts are best cleaned with a metal broach,
taking care not to damage the burner head.
The injector orifice should be cleaned with a
wooden splinter. Metal reamers may distort or
increase the orifice size and should be avoided.
WARNING - Do not leave any wood splinter
or bristles from brush in the burner or injector.
Fire could result.
Gears
The gear housing has fitting for proper
lubrication of moving parts. The gears do not run
in oil, periodic lubrication with grease is
necessary. Frequency of lubrication will depend
on operating conditions, but it should be
performed at least once every 6 months. It is
aned periodically to
recommended that a #2 grade LGI lithium
grease be used. Add grease through the Zerk
fittings on the gear housing until grease flows out
of bearings around the trunnion shaft. Place a
liberal amount of grease on the gear to cover the
arc that is in contact with the worm gear.
Safety Valve (Steam)
At least twice a month the safety valve requires
checking to make sure it works correctly. When
the gauge pressure is about five PSI, lift the
valve lever enough to vent steam, then quickly
let it snap back into place.
WARNING
AVOID ANY EXPOSURE TO THE STEAM
BLOWING OUT OF THE SAFETY VALVE.
This procedure should be explained to the user,
since it is to be carried out at least twice a
month. Safety procedures and requirements
should also be explained to the user when
carrying out the procedure.
Safety Valve Operating Instructions
If adding water to the boiling pan jacket,
water to flow through safety valve as sediment or
debris may be deposited on seating surface.
To achieve topmost performance and maximum
service life, it is necessary to maintain a proper
pressure margin between set pressure of the
safety valve and equipment operating pressure.
DO NOT ALLOW
10 OM/SM- DH CE
OM-SM-DH-CE
OM/SM-DH-CE
The minimum required pressure margin for this
type of valve is 10% of the safety relief valve set
pressure, but not less than five PSI. UNDER NO
CIRCUMSTANCES SHOULD THIS MARGIN
BE LESS THAN 5 PSI. Failure to maintain this
operating margin may result in water leakage
past the seat and accumulation of deposits on
the seating surface. Excessive deposits may
prevent the valve from operating properly, and a
dangerous pressure build-up and equipment
rupture may result.
Maintenance and Testing
If lift lever does not activate, or there is no
evidence of discharge, discontinue use of
equipment immediately and contact a licensed
contractor or qualified service personnel.
Neither Conbraco Industries, Inc. nor its agents
assume any liability for valves improperly
installed or maintained.
This quality Conbraco safety relief valve, along
with proper installation, use, and maintenance,
will provide many years of reliable service and
protection against excessive pressure build-up of
water/steam. Use of this valve for any other
purpose or media places all responsibility upon
the user. Before installing valve or operating
equipment to which it is installed, read
instructions carefully. Always wear proper safety
equipment.
INSTALLATION OF SAFETY VALVE (STEAM)
a) Installation must be performed by qualified
service personnel only.
b) The BTU/hr or lb/hr rating of this valve must
equal or exceed that of the equipment to
which it is attached.
Test the operation of the safety valve on a
regular basis.
CAUTION
BEFORE TESTING, MAKE CERTAIN
DISCHAR G E P IPE IS PR O P E RLY
CONNECTED TO VALVE OUTLET AND
ARRANGED TO CONTAIN AND SAFELY
DISPOSE OF BOILER DISCHARGE (SEE
“INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS”).
Under normal operating conditions a “try lever
test” must be performed every two months.
Under severe service conditions, or if corrosion
and/or deposits are noticed within the valve
body, testing must be performed more often. A
“try lever test” must also be performed at the end
of any non-service period.
Test at
holding the test lever fully open for at least 5
seconds to flush the valve seat free of sediment
and debris. Then release lever and permit the
valve to snap shut.

c) DO NOT use this valve on a coal or wood
boiler having an uncontrolled heat input
d) Ensure that all connections, including the
valve inlet, are clean and free from any
foreign material.
e) Use pipe compound sparingly, or tape, on
external threads only.
f) DO NOT USE A PIPE WRENCH! Use
proper type and size wrench on wrench pads
only.
g) This valve must be mounted in a vertical,
upright position directly to a clean, tapped
opening in the top of the boiler or equipment.
Under no circumstances should there be a
flow restriction or valve of any type between
the safety relief valve and the pressure
vessel
