Gas Supply Connections
The appliance is supplied with a 8mm Bundy pipe and a 8mm compression elbow to
allow easy connection to the mains gas supply. This supply gas pipe should incorporate a
gas service isolation tap that is situated within 1 metre of the application.
Diagram 6 shows the 8mm Bundy pipe being
fitted to the gas inlet on the valve. The
compression joint is tightened with a 12mm
open-ended spanner.
Testing Supply Pressure
1.
Gas pressure at the appliance is measured via the rearward test nipple (Test nipple
‘A’ in diagram 7) on the left-hand side of the control valve. (Turning the screw
approximately half a turn anti-clockwise with a small flat-bladed screwdriver opens
the test point.)
ALWAYS CLOSE TEST POINTS AFTER USE!
2.
The gas pressure at the appliance is measured with the appliance running at
full
rate
. (For information on how to achieve ‘full rate’ read ‘Adjusting Between High
and Low Output Settings’ in the ‘Lighting the Appliance’ section of the User
Instructions.
Burner Gas Pressure should be:
Natural Gas@ 19mBars
LPG @ 36mBars
3.
The supply pressure coming into the appliance can also be checked by using test
point ‘B’, shown in diagram 7.
