ADJUSTMENTS AND FINAL CHECKOUT
The procedures described in this chapter are
related to the adjustments on the main gas valve,
pilot valve and by-pass valve. For adjustments on
the other additional functionalities (e.g. pressure
switch), refer to the included instruction sheet of the
product in question in the package.
CAUTION
• Adjustments must be made by qualified
personnel only.
• To ensure a safe closing of the valves, it is
essential that voltage over the terminals of
operators is reduced to 0 Volts.

VP & VB valves fast opening
Figure 22: Adjusting flow rate.
Flow rate adjustment (see Fig. 22.)
1. Remove the cap screw from top of the coil.
2. Place a socket head wrench into the
adjustment nut.
3. Turn wrench counter-clockwise to increase
or clockwise to decrease flow rate.
4. Replace cap screw.
VP & VB valves slow opening
The following characteristics can be adjusted:
• flow rate
• step pressure
• opening speed
Figure 23: Characterized opening.
IMPORTANT
To ensure a satisfactory setting of the valve the
pressure drop over the valve should be at least
10% of the supply pressure or 2.5 mbar which ever
is the greatest.
Flow rate adjustment
1. Remove the cap from top of the coil by
loosening both screws.
2. Place a wrench on the adjustment hexagon
nut.
3. Turn wrench counter-clockwise to increase
or clockwise to decrease the flow rate.
4. Replace cap on top of the coil.
Figure 24: Adjusting flow rate.
Step pressure adjustment (see fig. 25.)
1. Remove the cap from top of the coil by
loosening both screws.
2. Place a screw driver in the slot of
adjustment screw which is situated in
center of the valve.
3. Turn screw driver counter-clockwise to
increase or clockwise to decrease step
pressure.
4. Replace cap on top of the coil.
Figure 25: Adjusting step pressure.
Opening speed adjustment
1. Remove the cap from top of the coil by
loosening both screws.
2. Place screw driver in the slot of adjustment
screw which is of center line.
3. Turn screw driver counter-clockwise to
increase the opening speed and therefore
the time till full opening will decrease.
EN2R-9082 0907RB1109RC

4. Turn screw driver clockwise to decrease
the opening speed and therefore the time
till full opening will increase.
5. Replace cap on top of the coil.
Figure 26: Adjusting opening speed.
CPI switch adjustment
1. Ensure that valve is in closed position (no
coil energized)
2. Place a socket head wrench into the
adjustment nut.
3. Turn adjustment screw clockwise till
terminals 1 and 3 in closed position.
4. Turn the adjustment screw an additional
half turn clockwise to achieve some over
travel at the switch.
5. Operate valve several times to ensure
proper functioning of the switch
Figure 24: CPI switch adjustment
Final checkout of the installation
Set the appliance in operation after any adjustment
and observe several complete cycles to ensure that
all burner components function correctly.

CONSTRUCTION AND WORKING PRINCIPLES
The VP and VB420 series gas valves are class “A” fail safe shut-off valves. The valve is opened by energizing
the direct ON / OFF operator. The direct ON / OFF operator consists of a coil and stop sleeve assembly. Inside
the top sleeve assembly a plunger is placed which is able to move up and down and thus opening or closing the
valve. The plunger is gliding on two anti-friction bearings. Flow regulation is done by adjustable plunger stroke.
Valve closing springs are made out of steel AISI 302. Seals and gaskets are manufactured out of hydrocarbon
resistant NBR according to DIN 3535 and EN291 or made out of Viton

The MS06 series CPI switches contain micro switches indicating the position of the valve. Closed position is
detected by mechanical contact between valve and extension of the switch. If valve opens, the shaft is moved
by spring and switch can change over.
