GAS CONNECTIONS

GAS CONNECTIONS

All gas supply connections and any pipe joint compound used must be resistant to the action of propane gases.

The gas inlet is located under the control panel on the left-hand side.

Connect gas supply to the tilting braising pan. The gas supply line must be at least the equivalent of 3/4" iron pipe with an incoming pressure of approximately 7" W.C. (Water Column) for natural gas or 11" W.C. (Water Column) for propane gas. Make sure the pipes are clean and free of obstructions, dirt and piping compound.

Codes require that a gas shutoff valve be installed in the gas line ahead of the tilting braising pan.

Natural gas and propane gas braising pans are equipped with fixed orifices and no adjustment is necessary. Gas burner manifold is set at 3.5" W.C. (Water Column) for natural gas, and 10" W.C. (Water Column) for propane gas.

WARNING: Never use an open flame to check for gas leaks. Check all connections for leaks using soapy water before use.

After piping has been checked for leaks, all piping receiving gas should be fully purged to remove air.
