Trinity Lx │Installation and Operation Instructions Lx Series389.0 GAS VALVE AND BURNER SET-UPThe Trinity Lx gas valve must be set-up by a licensed Gas Technician. Improper set-upmay result in incorrect operation, damage to components or property, injury or death.Gas Line PressureThe appliance gas valve is equipped with a line pressure test port; see Figures 9-1 through 9-4. Use the followingprocedure to measure the gas line pressure to the appliance to ensure if falls within the range given in Table 9-1:1. Turn the supply of gas to the appliance off.2. Open the bleed screw of the line pressure test port approximately 1-1/2 turns (Lx150-500 models). Thisport is directly connected to the gas line feeding the appliance. For Lx600-800 models, replace 1/8” NPTplug in the inlet flange of the gas valve with a hose barb fitting suitable for manometer tubing used. SeeFigure 9-4.3. Force 1/4" ID tubing over the housing of the line pressure test port; install the other end of the tubing to anappropriate line pressure test gauge or manometer. Ensure both ends of the tubing make a tight connection.4. Open the supply of gas to the appliance and check for gas leaks.5. Observe the line pressure under static conditions and compare it to Table 9-1. The pressure will be greatestunder static conditions.6. With all other gas appliances in the applications running, operate the burner to the maximum firing rate (seeTable 9-2) and compare the observed line pressure with Table 9-1. The pressure will be lowest during themaximum flow of gas.7. Adjust the gas line pressure to ensure the parameters in Table 9-1 are attained under all conditions. Ifpossible adjust the line pressure to the "Nominal/Desired" value listed in Table 9-1, while the unit isoperating at the maximum modulation rate, see Table 9-2.8. Continue observing the gas line pressure until the completion of the combustion analyses, incaseadjustments need to be made.9. Upon completion of the line pressure testing, return the bleed screw of the Line Pressure Test Port to theclosed position. For the Lx600-800, replace the installed hose barb fitting with the factory 1/8” NPT plug;use NG/LP approved thread sealant.The line pressure is a function of the gas supply and is affected solely by field providedparameters such as line size and regulator settings. Under no circumstances can theappliance gas valve influence or be used to adjust the gas line pressure.Failure to close the bleed screw of the Line Pressure Test Port will cause a severe leakageof gas, resulting in a fire or explosion causing property damage, serious injury or death.Table 9-1 Line Pressure and Combustion ParametersLine Pressure (inches wc) CO 2 (%) 1Gas Nominal/Desired Min.

Failure to comply may result in injury of death.Manifold Pressure - DO NOT adjust or measure the Manifold Pressure of the appliance.Correct manifold pressure is factory set. Field adjustment could result in improper burneroperation resulting in fire, explosion, property damage or death.
