SCOPE
1.1.1
This standard applies to newly produced automatic valves (see Part VI, Definitions) constructed entirely of new, unused parts and materials.
These valves may be individual automatic valves or valves utilized as parts of automatic gas ignition systems. This standard also applies to
commercialindustrial safety shutoff valves (see Part VI, Definitions), herein after referred to as CII valves. This standard shall not apply to
self-contained water heater, cooking appliance, or room heater thermostats, or self-contained automatic gas shutoff valves for hot
water supply systems. Components performing functions other than those of an automatic valve shall comply with applicable American National Standards or Canadian Standards. Compliance of an automatic valve with this standard does not imply that the automatic valve is acceptable for use on gas appliances without supplemental tests with the automatic valve applied to the particular appliance design. A control which incorporates two or more automatic valves and no other function, (as defined by combination control, see Definitions, Part IV), may be tested to this standard or the Standard for Combination Gas Controls for Gas Appliances, ANSI Z21.78 . CGA 6.20, at the discretion of the
manufacturer.
1.1.2
The valve operator of an automatic valve may be actuated either directly
or indirectly. In addition, it may be actuated by electrical means, by
mechanical means, by means of a change of the absolute pressure of gas
or air upon a diaphragm, or by other means.
1.1.3
This standard applies to automatic valves having maximum operating gas pressure ratings of 1/2, 2, 5 psi (3.5, 13.8, 34.5 kPa), or higher than
5 psi (34.5 kPa) in 5 psi (34.5 kPa) increments up to and including a maximum operating pressure of 60 psi (413.7 kPa).
1.1.4
This standard applies to automatic valves which are to be mounted in the manufacturer's specified upright position or in one or more of the
optional mounting positions selected by the manufacturer. (See 2.1.1.)
1.1.5
This standard applies to automatic valves which are capable of operation at ambient temperatures of 32 to 125°F (0 to 51.5°C), unless a higher
temperature, lower temperature, or both, are specified by the manufacturer. (See 2.1.2.)
1.1.6
If a value for measurement as given in this standard is foDowed by an equivalent value in other units, the first stated value is to be regarded as the specification.
1.1.7
All references to psi throughout this standard are to be considered gage pressures unless otherwise specified.
1.1.8
Additional provisions concerning electrical coverage applicable to units defined for use in the United States are outlined in Exhibit A.
1.1.9
Additional provisions concerning electrical coverage, instructions and markings, applicable to units destined for use in Canada are outlined in
Exhibit B.
1.1.10
Exhibit C (List of Reference Standards) contains a list of standards specifically referenced in this standard and sources from which they may
be obtained.
