Connect the fuel supply as follows:
1. Install a fuel shut-off valve between the TEG and the fuel supply.
NOTE: Follow local regulations when installing fuel piping.
2. Inspect fuel lines and fittings to ensure that they are free of foreign material.
3. Remove the plastic protective cap from the TEG’s 1/4-inch NPT male connector.
4. Apply Teflon tape, or other thread sealant, on the male connector as illustrated in Figure 6 to
minimize fuel line contamination.
5. Connect the fuel line and check all joints for leaks using a commercial leak detector fluid such as
Snoop®.
6. Purge fuel supply lines to the TEG of all air.
3.6 ADJUSTING FOR ALTITUDE
The burner fuel pressure supplied on the TEG, and marked on the data plate, is set for the factory
altitude or site elevation of 2460 ft (750 m). At the factory’s elevation, the fuel pressure should be in
the range of 16 to 22 psi (110 to 150 kPa) for propane or 6 to 10 psi (41 to 69 kPa) for natural gas.

If the TEG’s installation site is at a similar altitude, check the burner fuel pressure and confirm
that is has not changed from the factory setting as marked on the data plate.

If the TEG’s installation site is at a different altitude, adjust the burner fuel pressure as follows:
a)
Determine the altitude of the installation site and mark that number on the graph in
Figure 7.
b) From the marked altitude on step a), follow the line vertically towards the curve and stop
when you touch the curve. This is the point to where you will adjust your fuel pressure.
