24G SERIES FLATBOTTOM GAS FRYERS CHAPTER 3: INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

3.4 Gas Connections (cont.)

DANGER

When pressure-testing incoming gas supply lines, disconnect the fryer from the gas line if the test pressure is ½" PSI [14" W.C. (3,45 kPa)] or greater to avoid damage to the fryer’s gas piping and gas valve(s).

A. Manifold Pressure: Your local service technician should check the manifold pressure with a manometer.

1.Check the rating plate for manifold gas pressures. See page 3-10 for gas types and pressures.

2.Confirm that the arrow forged into the bottom of the regulator body, which indicates gas flow direction, is pointed downstream towards the fryers. The air vent cap is also part of the regulator and should not be removed.

3.If a vent line from the gas pressure regulator is used, it should be installed in accordance with local codes or in the absence of local codes, with the appropriate National or European Community (CE) standards.

WARNING

Use a diluted soap solution to find gas leaks when making new connections.

B.Regulators: Gas regulators can be adjusted in the field, but no adjustments should be made unless the regulator is out of adjustment, or serious pressure fluctuations are observed.

C.Only qualified service personnel should make adjustments to the regulators.

D.Orifices: The fryer can be configured to operate on any available gas. The correct safety control valve, appropriate gas orifices, and pilot burner are installed at the factory. While the valve can be adjusted in the field, only qualified service personnel should make any adjustments with the proper test equipment.

1.CE Only: The following color codes indicate the type of gas to be used for each fryer and associated components.
