NOTICE

Local codes regarding installation vary greatly from one area to another. The National Fire Protection Association, Inc., states in its NFPA 96 latest edition that local codes are the “authority having jurisdiction” when it comes to installation requirements for equipment. Therefore, installations should comply with all local codes.

Southbend reserves the right to change specifications and product design without notice. Such revisions do not entitle the buyer to corresponding changes, additions, or replacements for previously purchased equipment.

Southbend appliances are intended for commercial use only, not for household use.

The installation must conform with local codes, or in the absence of local codes, with the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1, Natural Gas Installation Code, CAN/CGA-B149.1,or the Propane Installation Code CAN/CGA- B149.2, as applicable, including:

1.The appliance and its individual shutoff 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 psi (3.45 kPa).

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).

CLEARANCES

There must be adequate clearance between the cheese melter and adjacent construction due to the heat generated by the cheese melter. Clearance must also be provided for servicing and for operation.

The minimum clearance from non-combustible construction is 1” on the sides and 3.75" on rear (to permit combustion air to enter the rear of the cheese melter). To service the cheese melter components, all models require at least 6" accessibility clearance on the right and left side.

Adequate clearance must be provided in front of the cheese melter for operation and cleaning.

The high-temperature flue products from the cheese melter burners flow out through a vented cover on top of the cheese melter. Installation under a vented hood is recommended.
