that are used for installing the gas control. After the adapter
is installed, the gas control is attached to the adapter as
outlined above. Note that using an adapter increases the
overall length of the gas control.
CHOOSE GAS CONTROL LOCATION
Do not locate the gas control where it may be affected
by steam cleaning, high humidity, dripping water, corrosive
chemicals, dust or grease accumulation, or excessive
heat. To ensure proper operation, follow these guidelines.
• Locate gas control in a well ventilated area.
• Mount gas control high enough above the cabinet
bottom to avoid exposure to flooding or splashing
5
water.
• Ensure the ambient temperature does not exceed
the ambient temperature ratings for each compo
nent.
• Cover gas control if appliance is cleaned with water,
steam, or chemicals or to avoid dust and grease
accumulation.
• Avoid locating gas control where exposure to cor
rosive chemical fumes or dripping water are likely.
Locate the gas control in the appliance vestibule on the
gas manifold. In replacement applications, locate the gas
control in the same location as the old gas control.
Install Piping to Gas Control
All piping must comply with local codes and ordinances
or with the National Fuel Gas Code (ANSI Z223.1 NFPA
No. 54), whichever applies. Tubing installation must comply
with approved standards and practices.
1. Use new, properly reamed pipe free from chips. If
tubing is used, ensure the ends are square, deburred and
clean. All tubing bends must be smooth and without
deformation.
2. Run pipe or tubing to the gas control. If tubing is used,
obtain a tube-to-pipe coupling to connect the tubing to the
gas control.
3. Install sediment trap in the supply line to the gas
control. See Fig. 3.
Install Gas Control
1.
Mount the gas control
0-90
degrees, in any direction,
from the upright position of the gas control knob, including
vertically.
2. Mount the gas control so gas flow is in the direction
of the arrow on the bottom of the gas control.
3. Thread pipe the amount shown in Table 4 for inser
tion into the gas control or adapter. DO NOT THREAD
PIPE TOO FAR. Valve distortion or malfunction may result
if the pipe is inserted too deeply into the gas control.
