CHECKING THE GAS SUPPLY
• Check the manometer zero point is correct.
• Connect the manometer to the cooktop
pressure point. This is located on the regulator.
• Turn on the gas supply and electricity and try to
ignite the gas.
NOTE:
It will take additional time to light the gas for the
first time as air needs to be purged from the pipes.
With the appliance operating check the outlet
pressure:
• When all burners of the appliance are operating
at maximum.
• When the smallest burner of the appliance is
operating at minimum.
Under these conditions the outlet pressure should
not vary from the nominal outlet pressure
of 1.00kPa by more than ±0.20kPa.
If the regulator appears to not be performing
satisfactorily, then check the following points:
• If the outlet pressure is consistently too low
then the inlet pressure may be too low and
adjustment of an upstream regulator may be
needed, or an upstream regulator or valve with
insufficient flow capacity may be present in
the gas supply line. If this is suspected then it
may be necessary to repeat the checks whilst
measuring both the inlet and outlet pressure
to determine if the inlet pressure is in the
range 1.13 – 5kPa.
• Check that the regulator has been fitted to
the gas supply line in the correct orientation,
the arrow on the base of the body indicates the
direction of gas flow.
Once these checks have been completed, if the
regulator still fails to perform in a satisfactory
manner it should be replaced.
