Accu-Steam™ G2 Gas Service Manual

SP8042-1911
When trouble shooting ignition problems it is absolutely imperative to start off by taking
incoming/outgoing gas pressure and to get a reading from the flame sensor. These three
measurement are the most useful readings a technician can take when diagnosing AccuTemp gas
equipment and are often the most neglected.
The ACCU-STEAM G2 gas griddle requires the proper gas pressure setting to operate properly. All
pressure readings should be taken after the unit has reached a temperature of at least 200°F and
while it is running to ensure proper flow rates.
Required Material:
Manometer, 1/8” NPT barbed hose fitting one 2 inch long lengths of approx. 1/8” diameter flexible
rubber hose (closed on one end).
Tasks:
1. Verify pressure regulator vent are clear before making any pressure adjustments.
2. Remove the 1/8” NPT pipe plug from the main gas valve and install the 1/8” NPT barbed hose
fitting. Tighten and mount one length of the rubber hose.
3. Allow the appliance to heat up to at least 200°F. First, check the main burner regulator pressure.
Remove the rubber hose and replace with the manometer tube.
The pressure should be 5”
WC for natural gas and 10“WC for propane.
If the outgoing pressure does not meet this value,
remove the cap on the main burner pressure regulator and adjust it to the necessary value.
4. Replace the hose fittings with original plug.
The internal dual gas valves are rated for a low pressure systems. Low pressure is 1/2lb (14” water
column) or less. An external regulator should ONLY be used if incoming gas pressure exceeds
this value. If incoming gas pressure does not meet 7” water column for Natural gas or 12” water
column for propane then the technician should first check to see if there is an external regulator
installed and if there is not, the gas supply company should be contacted and asked to raise the
supply pressure to the building. Another inspection point in the gas system is the gas supply lines.
The recommended gas supply hose is commercial grade (Dormant) 3/4” ID and not to exceed 4
feet in length from the main supply
. When inspecting the gas supply system, verify there are no
restricting adapters or regulators (Unless on a high pressure system).
