Rigid Pipe
6. The supply line shall be equipped with an
approved shutoff valve. This valve should
be located in the same room, but external
to the range, and should be in a location
that allows ease of opening and closing.
Do Not block access to shutoff valve.
7. If rigid pipe is used as a gas supply line, a
combination of pipe fittings must be used
to obtain an in-line connection to the range.
All strains must be removed from the sup-
ply and fuel lines so the range will be level
and in line.
8. The regulator setting must be checked at
a minimum of 1 inch water column above
the manifold pressure. The inlet pressure
to the regulator should be as follows for
operation:
Natural gas:
Manifold pressure—5 inches
Maximum pressure—14 inches
L.P. gas:
Manifold pressure—10 inches
Maximum pressure—14 inches
9. Line pressure testing:
Testing above 1/2 psi (gauge)
The range and its individual shutoff valve
must be disconnected from the gas supply
piping system during any pressure testing
of that system at test pressures greater
than 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa).
Testing at 1/2 psi (gauge) or lower
The range must be isolated from the gas
supply piping system by closing its indi-
vidual manual shutoff valve during any pres-
sure testing of the gas supply piping sys-
tem at test pressures equal to or less than
1/2 psig (3.5 kPa).
