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
has
two
female
threads
½”
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
11.0"
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
(14.0"
W.c.P.)
If
the
line
pressure
exceeds
that
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
psig
(3.45
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
½
psig
(3.45
kPa).
