INSTALLATION
Installation
To Install
1. Uncrate carefully. Report any freight damage to the
freight company immediately.
2. Set the unit in place. Be certain to maintain the mini-
mum clearances from combustibles and non-com-
bustibles.
3. For an appliance supplied with legs, level the ap-
pliance using a spirit level. Four flanged adjustable
feet are provided for permanent anchoring to the
floor. With the unit in location, mark hole locations
on the floor through the anchoring holes. Remove
the steamer and drill holes at marked locations on the
floor. Insert proper anchoring devices.
4. Set steamer back in proper position.
5. Install bolts through anchoring holes and into anchors
to secure the steamer to the floor. Seal bolts and
flanged feet with Silastic™ or equivalent silicone seal
-
ant.
6. After the drain is connected, check for level by pour-
ing water onto the floor of the compartment. All water
should drain through the opening at the back of the
compartment cavity.
WARNING
For an appliance equipped with casters, the
installation shall be made with a connector
that complies with the Standard for Con-
nectors for Moveable Gas Appliances, ANSI
Z21.69/CSA 6.16 and a quick-disconnect
device that complies with the Standard for
Quick-Disconnect Devices for use with Gas
Fuel, ANSI Z21.41/CSA 6.9; adequate means
must be provided to limit the movement of the
appliance without depending on the connector
and the quick-disconnect device or its associ-
ated piping to limit the appliance movement:
the location where restraining means may be
attached is directly above the gas supply inlet
pipe on the rear of the appliance.
The water inlet connections must also be
installed with a flexible water supply line, a
quick disconnect and strain relief.
GAS CONNECTION
1. The Serial and Rating Plate on the unit indicates the
type of gas your unit is equipped to burn. DO NOT
connect to any other gas type.
2. A 3/4” NPT line is provided at rear for the connection.
Each compartment is equipped with an internal pres
-
sure regulator which is set at 3.5” W.C. manifold pres-
sure for natural gas and 10” W.C. for propane gas.
Use C” pipe tap on the burner manifold for checking
pressure.
An adequate gas supply is imperative. Undersized or low
pressure lines will restrict the volume of gas required for
satisfactory performance. A steady supply pressure, be-
tween 6” W.C. and 14” W.C. for natural gas and 11” W.C.
and 14” W.C. for propane gas is recommended. With all
units operating simultaneously, the manifold pressure on
all units should not show any appreciable drop. Fluctua-
tions of more that 25% on natural gas and 10% on pro-
pane gas will create problems, affecting burner operation.
Contact your gas company for correct supply line sizes.
Purge the supply line to clean out any dust, dirt or other
foreign matter before connecting the line to the unit. Use
pipe joint compound which is suitable for use with LP on
all threaded connections.
Test pipe connections thoroughly for gas leaks.
WARNING
Never use an open flame to check for gas
leaks. Check all connections for leaks using
soapy water before use.
NOTICE
If this equipment is being installed at over
2,000 feet altitude and was not so specified on
order, contact service department. Failure to
install with proper orifice sizing may void the
warranty.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
120 VAC-60 Hz - Single Phase
Units with this electrical rating are factory supplied with a
three-wire cord and three-prong plug which fits any stan
-
dard 120V, three-prong grounded receptacle. A separate
15 amp supply is needed for each unit.
