V48A,F,J; V88A,J

Diaphragm Gas Valves

APPLICATION

The V48 and V88 are solenoid-operated diaphragm valves

suitable for LP (Liquefied Petroleum), natural, and

manufactured gases. They are normally used on atmospheric

boilers, commercial water heaters, and rooftop heaters.

FEATURES

• Line voltage, 2-wire thermostat or controller used with

a V48; V88 used with 24V thermostat.

• Valves provide slow opening and fast closing.

• Two second maximum closing time.

• V48J, V88J rated for 150°F (66°C) ambient temperature.

• V48F rated for 5 psi (lb. per sq. in.) (34.5 kPa). V48A

and V88A rated for either 1/2 or 1 psi (3.4 or 6.9 kPa),

depending on model. V48J and V88J rated for 1 psi

(6.9 kPa).

• One model for natural and LP gases.

• Wide range of sizes and capacities.

• Firm closing; diaphragm is both weight and spring

loaded.

• Valve closes on power failure; recommended for final

shutoff service.

• Adjustable or fixed bleed orifices available for

installation by OEM.

• Valve position indicator on 1-1/4 in. V48A2227 and 2 in.

V48F1103 Valves.

For normal installations, use moisture-resistant No. 14 wire suitable for at least 167°F (75°C) if using a flame safeguard primary control, or for at least 194°F (90°C) if using a flame safeguard programming control. For high temperature installation, use moisture-resistant No. 14 wire selected for a temperature rating above the maximum operating temperature. Check the power supply circuit. The voltage and frequency must match those of the valve. Refer to Fig.

V48A,F,J; V88A,J DIAPHRAGM GAS VALVES OPERATION Operation of the V48 and V88 Valves (Fig. 10) When the controller is not calling for heat, the coil is de-energized. The plunger in the 3-way actuator is in the DOWN position so the bleed port is closed and the supply port is open. Gas flows into the top part of the valve. The gas pressure on top of the diaphragm, the weight, and the spring hold the valve closed.
PAGE 9
V48A,F,J; V88A,J DIAPHRAGM GAS VALVES of the valve flows out through the bleed port. This reduces the pressure on top of the diaphragm, allowing the gas pressure below to lift the diaphragm and open the valve. CHECKOUT AND TROUBLESHOOTING WARNING When all the gas has bled off the top of the diaphragm, the valve is fully open, permitting gas flow to the main burner. Explosion Hazard. Can cause severe injury, death or property damage. Do not allow fuel to accumulate in the combustion chamber.

If there is still no voltage at the actuator, make sure all the appropriate contacts in the thermostat (or controller), limit(s), and flame safeguard control are closed. If one or more is open, determine the cause(s) and correct the con-dition(s) before proceeding. If there is proper voltage at the valve actuator but the valve still does not open, first check that the gas pressure at the valve is normal.
