SUITABLE FOR NON COMBUSTIBLE FLOORS

VENTILATION

The Keating Gas Fryer must be installed in an area providing adequate air supply and ventilation. Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air. Proper ventilation is one of the important considerations for efficient operation of the Keating Gas Fryer. It should be installed so that the products of combustion are removed efficiently without producing drafts that will interfere with proper burner operation. The intake for the exhaust fan should not be placed close to the flue of the Keating Gas Fryer to insure proper air flow necessary for combustion. The area around the front and bottom of the Keating Gas Fryer must be kept clear and unobstructed. In the U.S.A. the ventilation systems must conform to the ANSI/NFPA96 latest edition. “A minimum of 18" (457mm) should be maintained between the flue outlet and the lower edge of the grease filters.” Must be installed at least 16" away from any open flame. It is the responsibility of the owner and the local installer to comply with national and local codes.

NATIONAL CODE REQUIREMENT

The installation must conform with local codes, or in the absence of local codes, with the National Fuel Gas code, ANSI Z223.1 or the Natural gas Installation Code, CAN/CGA-B149.1 or the Propane Installation Code, CAN/CGA-B149.2. Flexible connectors must comply to ANSI Z221.69/CAN/CGA1.16. Keating equipment is designed and manufactured to operate

GAS CONNECTIONS AND PIPE SIZE

A single Keating Gas Fryer requires a standard gas pipe size of 3/4 inch (19mm) I.D. connection. Multiple fryers with a common manifold will require a minimum of 1 1/4 inch I.D. gas supply line. The size of the gas supply pipe is very important. If the pipe is too small you will have low gas pressure at the Keating Gas Fryer manifold. Low gas pressure will cause slow recovery and/or delayed ignition, amongst other problems. If you have a question about gas pipe size, call your local gas company.

Before connecting new pipe to the Keating Gas Fryer the pipe must be blown out to remove all foreign particles. These particles in the controls or burners may cause improper or dangerous operating conditions.

Pipe joint compounds that are used on threaded joints of appliance piping shall be resistant to the action of liquefied petroleum gases (Loctite PST 56765). When using pipe joint compound do not apply to the first two threads. Use only a very small amount and only on male threads. This will prevent clogging of burner orifices and the gas valve. Never use compound on female threads as it might be pushed into the gas valve.

Have your installer check for gas leaks using a soap and water solution before operating.

DO NOT USE AN OPEN FLAME TO CHECK FOR GAS LEAKS.

1)The Keating Gas Fryer and its individual shut off valves must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of 1/2 psi (3.45kPa) (13.84 in WC). High pressure can damage the gas valve causing a hazardous condition. Excessive pressure introduced to the fryer may void the warranty.

2.) The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shutoff valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psi (3.45 kPa).

NOTE: Keating fryers use a constant pilot that will emit a very small amount of gas at all times.

NOTE: Line pressure must be kept below 10” (Nat), 13” (LP) during leak test to avoid damage to the gas

valve.

only on the type of gas specified by the user and indicated on the serial plate located inside the door. The gas may be natural, propane or manufactured. The type of gas cannot be converted to another gas fuel by turning or engaging a switch.

WARNING

Do not use open flame

to check for leaks.

If more than one gas unit is on the same supply line, you may require a larger line. Consult your local gas company to assure adequate volume and pressure. Refer to serial plate for proper gas requirement for your particular model.
