Masport MG 3000 STD NG - Gas Pressure Adjustment; Electricity Connection; Flue Installation

TheSantaFe(flueless)modelsuseaflexiblehoseandbayonet.Thebayonetcanbeconnectedtoan
AGAapprovedG1/2”floorbayonetsocket.
Inallcasesashut-offvalveshouldbeinstalleddirectlybehindtheheatertofacilitateisolationofthe
heaterforservicing.
Itisessentialtopurgeallgaslinesbeforemakingtheconnectiontotheheatertoeliminateanyswarf.
Donotmaketheconnectionuntilthesuitabilityofthefluepositionhasbeenconfirmed.
GASPRESSUREADJUSTMENT.
Allpressureadjustmentsmustbemadewhiletheheateris
operatingonthe‘HIGH’setting.
BOSTONANDODESSANG.Thesehaveapressureregulatorseparatefromthecontrolvalve.The
regulatormustbesetto1.0kPa.Thepressuretestpoint isonthesideoftheregulatorandthe
adjustingscrewisonthetop.Slackenthelock-nutandrotatethescrewbyhand,screwingdownto
increasethepressure.Tightenthelocknutafteradjusting.
BOSTONANDODESSALP.Thesemodelshavenointernalpressureregulatorastheyrundirectlyon
the2.71kPapressuredeliveredbythegasbottleregulator.
SANTAFENG.Thesehaveapressureregulatorbuiltintothecontrolvalve.Thepressuretestpointis
thetoponeontheendofthecontrolvalvefurthestfromthegasinlet.Pressureadjustmentsare
madewiththesmallslottedscrewaboveandslightlytotherightof thegasinletonthecontrol
valve.Adjustto0.9kPa.
SANTAFELP.Thereisnopressureregulatorinthecontrolvalve.Thecorrectpressureof2.71kPa
should bedelivered bythegas bottle regulator. Thetest point for checking this pressure is the
uppermostoneontheendoftheappliancevalvefurthestfromthegasinlet.
ELECTRICITY. Plug the fan lead into a 230 volt power outlet and check that the fan operates
correctlyonallspeeds. Thefan switchisunder thelid (on the cabinet top) which covers the gas

FLUE(ForBostonandOdessamodels)
USEONLYANAPPROVEDFLUESYSTEM.
1. Stand theheater in its proposed position, taking care to observe the minimum clearances
shownonpage3.Theheaterdoesnotrequireahearthorfloorprotector.
2.Dropaplumb-bobfromtheceilingtohangcentrallyinthefluesocketoftheheaterandmark
thepositionontheceiling.Driveasmallnailthroughatthispointandinspecttheceilingand
roof to ensure that the flue and its trim will be at least 25mm clear of any combustible
material. The flueterminationrequirementsstatedin ‘Positioning theHeater’ (page2)will
alsoneedtobemet.
3.Cutappropriateholesthroughtheceilingandroofmaterialandinstalltheflueinaccordance
withtheinstructionsaccompanyingit,takingcaretoprovideanysafetyclearancesspecifiedin
theinstructions(usually25mmbetweentheflueshieldandanynearbycombustiblematerial).
TheinstallationmustmeettherequirementsofAG601orNZS5261asappropriate.Thetop
ofthefluemustbeabovetheroof,atleast500mmclearofanypartoftheroofandatleast1
metrehorizontallyfromanyneighbouringstructure.Allfluesectionsmustbesecurelycoupled
toeachother.
5.Flashtheupperflueatthepointofexitthroughtheroof,topreventwaterentry,andfitthe
fluecap.
It is the responsibility of the installer to ensure that the flue system is operating
correctly.See‘TESTFIRING’below.
