IMPORTANT: A strain relief must be used where the input wiring enters the rear electric box.

Consistent gas pressure is essential at ALL gas connections. It is recommended that a 2-inch pipe gas loop be installed in the supply line serving a bank of dryers. An in-line pressure regulator must be installed in the gas supply line (header) if the (natural) gas pressure exceeds 12 inches of water column pressure.

NOTE: A water column test pressure of 3.5 inches for natural gas and 11 inches for L.P. (liquid propane) dryers is required at the gas valve pressure tap of each dryer for proper and safe operation.

A 1/8” N.P.T. plugged tap, accessible for a rest gauge connection, must be installed in the main gas supply line immediately upstream of each dryer.

IMPORTANT: Pipe joint compounds that resist the action of natural gas and L.P. gas must be used.

IMPORTANT: Test ALL connections for leaks by brushing on a soapy water solution (liquid detergent works well).

WARNING:NEVER TEST FOR LEAKS WITH A FLAME!!!

ALL components and materials must confirm to National Gas Code specifications. It is important that gas pressure regulators meet applicable pressure requirements and that gas meters be rated for the total amount of ALL the appliance BTU’s being supplied.

IMPORTANT: The dryer and its individual shut-off valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa).

NOTE: The dryer must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shut-off valve during any pressure test of the gas supply system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa).
