J'urthex change in gas xate can be accomplished if
necessary by changing the fiired orifice to the bur-
ners*
Propane Gas: Propane gas units axe not equipped
with gas pressure regulators. Burner orifices are
sized to give the rated input at a manifold pressure
of 11" w.c. The only check for rated input is the
manifold.pressure.
CHECK CONTROLS
Bryant Gas Control Valve: If not already checked
when .iighting the main burner, check" thè proper
opexa'Lon pof This valve. Move the thermòstaf to a
call for diedi position. Observe there-Iwiil^ jAbe an
approxitnetfe 30 'second delay for the vaTye; ip 'ppen.
Move the the mio stai to a satisfied position;, again,
the 30 second -delay before the'.val ve iQlphes,.T' .^^^^
Automatic Pilot'; Check 'the V ì i t h e
automatic pilot as fòliows;
1. Set the room thermostat bh tail'fpi heaf-
2. After burners have ignited, close the pilot gas
cock.
3. After pilot gas cock is closed, the gas valve will
close in approximately 1 minute. After the pilot gas
is shut off the monometal cools and returns to the
open position. This breaks the circuit to the gas
valve closing the gas valve.

The pilot flame should surround the tip of -the ther­
mocouple. It should also extend downward to include
3/8 VT q 1/2." Ql.th§.Th??Lmpcoub^i^^^^ -Th£ flame mu St
not come in contact with any other part of. the ther­
mocouple.
The thermocouple transforms heat energy from the
pilot flame into electrical energy. The current thus
generated is sufficient to operate the 100% shut-off
valve. The Bryant Diaphragm Gas Control Valve is
powered externally from the transformer, and oper­
ates independently of the shut-off valve. When there
is a pilot flame, the current generated from the ther­
mocouple holds thè 100% shut-off valve in the open
position and the gas control valve controls the flow
of gas. Should the pilot go out, there will be no cur­
rent generated fay the thermocouple and the 100%
shut-off valve will close and no gas can flow to the
pilot.
If the pilot should go out, the electrical circuit to
the main gas valve will be broken and gas cannot
flow through the diaphragm valve. '
BRYANT AUTOMATIC PILOT (D4)
The pilot assembly includes a normally open switch
wired in series with the Bryant diaphragm gas con­
trol -valve. The switch is at the free end of . the
monometal element assembled so that the fixed end
is positioned at the pilot flame. Heat applied to the
fixed end of the monometal element causes the free
end to move. This closes the switch and completes
the electrical circuit to the control valve. The cir­
cuit will close within one minute. It will remain
^' closed aS long as there is iiori^al pilot flame. .While,

open. If the pilot .ilanie' g^ reason^ the
monometal element will cool and the free end will
move back to its original position. This breaks the
electric circuit and the Bryant diaphragm gas con­
trol valve will close. This shuts off the gas supply
to the main burner.
