Operation of Excess Flow Check Device
The regulator can be fitted a safety device designed to automatically limit the gas escape in case of gas leak, which
prevents the gas from reaching the grill. The marking “excess flow” on the regulator identification label means that the
regulator is provided with this option.
The “excess flow device” is likely to activate under the following condition
Normal operating conditions: Consumption of the gas fired appliance is higher that the regulator flow capacity. In such
case, you should contact your installer.
In case of pipe being torn off, proceed as follows:
1. Disconnect the regulator per the “Disconnect Gas Cylinder” section.
2. Re-fit the hose correctly
3. Connect the regulator per the “Connect Gas Cylinder” section.
4. Turn the regulator valve handle to the “ON” position.
5. Wait a few seconds (20 seconds) before restarting the system.
To guarantee a proper operation of the excess flow device, the pipe that supplier gas to the consuming appliance shall
be no more than 1.5 meters in length.
WARNING:
The regulator is
NEVER
to be left on the cylinder without its being connected to the grill, as the tear-off
proof safety is not designed to ensure the operation of the cylinder valve.
