PRESSURE
REGULATOR
Since
service
pressure
may
fluctuate
with
local
demand,
every gas
cooking
appliance
must
be
equipped
with
a
pressure
regulator
on
the incoming
service
line
for
safe
and
efficient operation.
The
pressure
regulator
shipped
with
the
appliance
has
two
female
threads
3/4"
NPT.
The
regulator
shall
be
installed
properly in
order
to
be
accessible
when
the
appliance
is
installed
in
its final
position.
Manifold pressure should be checked with a manometer and
comply with the values indicated below:
Natural gas -> 4. 0" W.c.P.
LP/Propane -> 10.0" W.c.P.
Incoming line pressure upstream from the regulator must be 1" W.c.P.
higher than the manifold pressure in order to check the
regulator.
The
regulator used on this range can withstand a maximum input pressure
of 1/2 PSI (13.8" w.c. or 3.5 kPa) If the line pressure exceeds tha
amount, a step-down regulator is required.
The appliance, its individual shut-off valve, and the pressure
regulator must be disconnected from the gas line during any
pressure testing of that system at pressures in excess of 1/2 PSI
(13 .8" w.c. or 3.5 kPa). The individual manual shut-off valve must be
in the OFF position during any pressure testing of the gas supply
piping
system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 PSI (13.8"
w.c
. or 3.5 kPa)..
