4 - Service Manual N260 Series
This refrigerator operates on LP gas at a pressure of 10.5
inches Water Column min. to 11.5 inches Water Column max.
WARNING:
Be very careful when working on or near
the LP gas system.
- Do not smoke, or use an open flame near the LP gas
system.
- Do not use an open flame to examine for leaks.
- Do not connect the refrigerator to the LP gas tank
without a pressure regulator between them.
- To avoid possible LP gas leaks, always use two
wrenches to tighten or loosen the LP gas supply line
connections.
- Leaking LP gas can ignite or explode and result in
dangerous personal injury or death.
Examine the LP gas supply system for leaks:
WARNING: Do not allow the leak detecting solution to
touch the electrical components. Many liquids are
electrically conductive and can cause a shock hazard,
electrical shorts, and in some cases fire.
Using a solution of liquid detergent and water, make sure the
LP gas supply line and all gas connections have no leaks. Do
not use any liquid that contains ammonia.
If you use compressed air for the test:
- The pressure of the compressed air at the manual shutoff
valve of the refrigerator must not be more than 1/2 psig
(14 inches Water Column).
- If the pressure of the compressed air is more than 1/2
psig (14 inches Water Column), remove the gas supply
line from the manual shutoff valve of the refrigerator
before the test.
- If the pressure of the compressed air is equal to or less
than 1/2 psig (14 inches Water Column), close the
manual shutoff valve of the refrigerator before the test.
Ventilation Requirements
WARNING:
The completed installation must:
- Make sure there is sufficient intake of fresh air for
combustion.
- Make sure the living space is completely isolated
from the combustion system of the refrigerator.
- Make sure there is complete and unrestricted
ventilation of the flue exhaust which, in gas mode,
can produce carbon monoxide. The breathing of
carbon monoxide fumes can cause dizziness,
nausea, or in extreme cases, death.
Certified installation needs one lower intake vent and one
upper exhaust vent. Install the vents through the side wall of
the vehicle exactly as instructed in this manual. Any other
installation method voids both the certification and the factory
warranty of the refrigerator.
The bottom of the opening for the lower intake vent, which is
also the service access door, must be even with or immedi-
ately below the floor level. This allows any leaking LP gas to
escape to the outside and not to collect at floor level.
American Gas Association/Canadian Gas Association (AGA/
CGA) certification allows the refrigerator to have zero (0) inch
minimum clearance at the sides, rear, top, and bottom. While
there are no maximum clearances specified for certification,
the following maximum clearances are necessary for correct
refrigeration:
Bottom 0 inch min. 0 inch max.
Each Side 0 inch min 1/2 inch max.
Top 0 inch min. 1/4 inch max.
Rear 0 inch min. 1 inch max.
These clearances plus the lower and upper vents cause the
natural air draft that is necessary for good refrigeration.
Cooler air goes in through the lower intake vent, goes around
the refrigerator coils where it removes the excess heat from
the refrigerator components, and goes out through the upper
exhaust vent. If this air flow is blocked or decreased, the
refrigerator may not cool correctly.
Each NORCOLD model is certified by AGA and CGA for
correct ventilation.
