The following requirements must be met to ensure safe and proper operation:
• The Flue Sentinel® Electronic Fireplace Damper must be electrically connected to the replace appliance using the chimney
upon which the damper is installed.
• The damper must be installed in accordance with the NEC NFPA 70 (most recent edition) and/or local codes.
• The damper must be installed using the wiring harness supplied with it. This harness has a mated connector which plugs
into the damper controller.
• The damper’s wiring harness must terminate at the gas valve.
• The wiring connecting the damper controller to the gas valve must be a minimum of 18 AWG and must be run in conduit if
installed on the exterior of the chimney or required by code.
• Figure 2 is a wiring connection diagram for a typical installation with an intermittent ignition system.
• The damper control wiring must always be connected as follows:
Brown - 24 VAC Hot
Orange - Signal In
Yellow - Signal Out
Black - 24 VAC Common
WARNING: This damper device MUST be interlocked with all automatic gas valves on the replace
appliance. DO NOT negate the action of any existing safety of operational control.
