4. 1 GAS VALVE (fig. 11)
PT
The boilers are equipped standard with the
HONEYWELL VK 4105Q gas valve.
Gas pressure calibration is carried out by
GB SIME on the production line.
If the pressures are checked only at the
burner, connect the pressure gauge as indi-
cated in fig. 12. If corrections are required
refer to section 4.2. 1 .
4.2

GAS CONVERSION

This operation must be performed by
authorised personnel using original Sime
components.
To convert from natural gas to LPG or vice
versa, perform the following operations:
– Close the gas cock.
– Replace the principal nozzles and the ø
10 aluminium washers included in kit
(use a 12 wrench in order to carry out
this operation).
– At start-up change the starting pres-
sure (STEP) of the gas valve by posi-
tioning the index of the screw accord-
ing to the type of gas, as mentioned in
fig. 11.
– To set the values of maximum and mini-
mum gas pressure, follow the instruc-
tions given in section 4.2. 1 .
Seal the regulators after the operating
pressure values have been changed.
– After have ultimated the conversion of
the boiler, please stick onto the casing
panel the plate showing the relevant
feeding gas which is included into the kit.
NOTE: When reassembling components
which you have removed, replace gas
seals; test all gas connections after
assembly using soapy water or a product
made specifically for the purpose, being
sure not to use open flame.
4.2. 1 Adjusting valve pressures
For maximum and minimum pressure cali-
bration follow the procedure listed below
(fig. 11/a):
– Connect the column or a manometer to
the intake downstream of the gas valve
(4 fig. 11).
– Disconnect the valve VENT pressure test
point tube (5 fig. 11).
– Remove the cap (3) from the modulator.
– Place the boiler stat knob at the maxi-
mum position.
– Turn on the boiler.
– Remember that rotating clockwise will
increase pressure while rotating anti-
clockwise will diminish it.
– Check the gas inlet pressure at the rele-
vant pressure test point (3 fig. 11) with
the boiler running at the maximum output.
– Regulate the maximum pressure by turn-
ing the nut with a fixed wrench (1)
searching for the maximum pressure
Table 3.

VENT PRESSURE TEST POINT
– If using LPG (G30/G31), the maximum
pressure nut (1 fig. 11/a) must be
screwed in almost as far as it will go to
turn off gas valve regulation. Adjust the
regulator upstream of the boiler to
obtain the required supply pressure
(point 1.3) and therefore maximum burn-
er pressure.

– Regulate the minimum pressure only
after having adjusted the maximum one.
– Turn off the supply power to the modulator.
– Turn the screw (2) in order to search for
the minimum pressure indicted in Table 3.
– Turn the boiler on and off several times
in order to check that the maximum and
minimum pressure corresponds to the
