Flexible Connections | DeLonghi DEBIGE 2440 SS, DEBIGE 2440 W

b)Any conversion required must be performed by your dealer or a qualified licensed plumber or gas service company. Please provide the service person with this manual before work is started on the oven. (Gas conversions are the responsibility of the dealer or end user.)

c)This oven can be used with NATURAL or LP/PROPANE gas. It is shipped from the factory adjusted for use with NATURAL gas.

d)Manifold pressure should be checked with a manometer; NATURAL gas requires 4.0” W.C.P. and LP/PROPANE requires 11.0” W.C.P. (see figure below).

Incoming line pressure upstream from the regulator must be 1” W.C.P. higher than the manifold pressure in order to check the regulator.

The regulator used on this oven can withstand a maximum input pressure of 1/2 PSI (14.0” W.C.P). If the line pressure is in excess of that amount, a step-down regulator will be required.

e)The appliance, its individual shut-off valve, and pressure regulator must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any pressure testing of that system at pressures in excess of 1/2 PSI (3.5 kPa).

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

3. Flexible Connections:

If local codes permit, CSA design-certified, flexible metal appliance connector is recommended for connecting this oven to the gas supply line. Do Not kink or damage the flexible connector when moving the oven. The pressure regulator has 3/8" NPT female pipe threads.You will need to determine the fittings required, depending on the size of your gas supply line, flexible metal connector and shutoff valve.

4. Rigid Pipe Connections:

If rigid pipe is used as a gas supply line, a combination of pipe fittings must be used to obtain an in-line connection to the oven. All strains must be removed from the supply and fuel lines so oven will be level and in line.

•Use joint compounds and gaskets that are resistant to action of natural or propane gas on all male pipe threads.

•Do not over tighten gas fitting when attaching to pressure regulator. Over tightening may crack regulator.
