If this equipment is being installed at over 2000 feet (610 meters) altitude and that information was not specified when
ordered, contact the appropriate authorized Southbend Service Representative or the Southbend Service Department.
Failure to install with proper orifice sizing will result in poor performance and may void the warranty.
The broiler is design-certified for operation on natural or propane gases. The broiler is shipped configured and adjusted for
the type of gas specified by the purchaser, which is indicated on the serial plate (see Figure 1). Connect the broiler ONLY
to the type of gas for which it is configured and adjusted.
Sectional range (field mount), wall mount, or countertop broilers will be supplied with the appropriate regulator and will
require field piping. Restaurant range mounted broilers will connect to the existing regulator on the restaurant range oven
base. Broilers mounted on the flue riser of a range will have a 3/8” rear gas connection (with a 3/8” male NPT connector)
extending through the rear of the flue riser (see Figure 3).
For wall-mount and countertop models, the gas connection (3/8” male NPT) extends directly out the rear of the broiler
(near the bottom-right-rear corner), or (using an elbow) out the top of the broiler near the top-right-rear corner.
Minimum supply pressure is 7” W.C. for natural gas, 11” W.C. for propane. If using a flexible-hose gas connection, the
I.D. of the hose must not be smaller than the connector on the broiler, and must comply with ANSI Z21.69. Provide an
adequate means of restraint to prevent undue strain on the gas connection.
If applicable, the vent line from the gas appliance pressure regulator must be installed to the outdoors in accordance with
local codes, or in the absence of local codes, with the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1, Natural Gas Installation
Code, CAN/CGA-B149.1, or the Propane Installation Code CAN/CGA-B149.2, as applicable.
An adequate gas supply is imperative. Undersized or low pressure lines will restrict the volume of gas required for
satisfactory performance. A 1/8” pressure tap is located on the manifold to measure the manifold pressure.
