11. Connecting the gas cylinder and checking for leaks
The following parts are required to connect the device:
•
Commercially available camping gas bottle 5 - 11kg filling weight, e.g., gray camping
propane gas bottle. You buy these from a liquid gas dealer. The empty cylinder is
replaced for refilling.
•
Fixed, DVGW-approved pressure reducer, max. 1.5 kg/h, operating pressure 50
mbar, suitable for the gas cylinder use, included in delivery.
•
DVGW-approved hose line of sufficient length (included in the scope of delivery) that
allows kink-free installation. It is part of the device. A porous or damaged hose line
must be replaced immediately. The hose line is already pre-assembled at the factory.
•
Leak detection agent, e.g., leak detection spray or soapy water.
1. Check the presence and proper condition of the cylinder valve thread seal, also at
each cylinder change. Do not use any additional seals.
2. Connect the union nut of the pressure regulator to the cylinder valve thread by turning
it counter clockwise by hand. Do not use any tools, as this may damage the cylinder
valve seal and thus the tightness is no longer guaranteed.
3. The hose line must be connected firmly and tightly to the pressure regulator outlet
thread by turning it to the left using an SW 17 spanner.
4. The connection of the other end of the hose line to the threaded connection piece of
the unit is already pre-assembled. This connection must also always be very tight. Al-
ways check all connections carefully before using the appliance.
5. Check all connections for leaks under operating pressure using a leak detector. Leak
tightness is ensured if no bubbles form.
Checking for leaks with an open flame is not permitted. Leaky or damaged hoses and
fittings must be replaced without exception
6. In the event of gas leaks, shut off the gas supply immediately and repair the leak or
replace the defective part.
7. To replace the gas cylinder, proceed as follows:
•
Choose a place away from any source of fire.
•
Close the cylinder valve.
•
Loosen the union nut from the pressure reducer.
•
Remove the pressure reducer from the cylinder.
•
Fit the bottle valve with a protective cap.
•
Connect the new bottle as described from point 1.
