INSTALLATION continued
Gas Supply
Before assembly and connection check the gas supply.
1.The type of gas for which the unit is equipped is stamped on the data plate located behind the drip tray. Connect a unit stamped “NAT” only to natural gas; connect those stamped “PRO” only to propane gas.
2.If it is a new installation have the gas authorities check the meter size and piping to assure that the unit is supplied with sufficient amount of gas pressure required to operate the unit.
3.If it is an additional or replacement equipment have the gas authorities check the pressure to make certain that the existing meter and piping will supply fuel to the unit with not more than 1/2” water column pressure drop.
WARNING: Check gas connections for leaks. Use a soap solution or similar means. DO NOT USE AN OPEN FLAME.
NOTE: This appliance is not recommended for residential installation.
Ventilation and Air Supply
Proper ventilation is highly important for good operation. The ideal method of ventilation for a Salamander broiler is the use of a properly designed canopy hood, which should extend six (6”, 152 mm) beyond all sides of the appliance and six (6) feet six (6) inches (1981 mm) from the floor.
A strong exhaust fan will create a vacuum in the room. For an exhaust system to work properly, replacement air must enter the room in which the vent is located. The amount of air that is exhausted must equal the amount entering,
All gas burners and pilots need sufficient air to operate and large objects should not be placed in front or on the top of the broiler, which would obstruct the airflow though, the front of the broiler.
For your safety NEVER place any type of object on top of the salamander broiler or cheese meters.. The top of the broiler will exceed 1000°F.. It could cause severe burns or fire and obstruct ventilation..
Testing And Adjustments
All fittings and pipe connections must be tested for leaks. Use approved gas leak detectors, soap solution or equivalent, checking over and around the fittings and pipe connections. DO NOT USE A FLAME! Accessibility to all gas lines and fittings require that valve panel(s), lower front panel(s) be removed. It may be necessary to remove or at least raise and secure top grates. All parts removed (including fasteners) should be stored safely for
Testing
1.Be sure all valves are in the “OFF” position
2.Turn on the main gas supply valve. Light all top section pilots.
3.Leak test all valves and fittings as described in the procedure above. Correct any leaks as required and recheck.
4.Shut off all gas valves.
All units are tested and adjusted at the factory. However, burners and pilots should be checked at installation and adjusted if necessary.
