FRYMASTER FPD65 SERIES GAS FRYERS
CHAPTER 3: INSTALLATION

3.2 Gas Connections (cont.)
C. Manual shut-off valve
: This gas service supplier-installed valve must be installed in the gas
service line ahead of the fryers in the gas stream and in a position where it can be reached
quickly in the event of an emergency.
D. Regulating Gas Pressure
: The fryer and shut-off valve must be disconnected from the gas
supply during any pressure testing of the system.
1. External gas regulators are not normally required on this fryer. A safety control valve
protects the fryer against pressure fluctuations. If the incoming pressure is in excess of
½" PSI (3.45 kPa/35 mbar), a step-down regulator will be required.
DANGER
When pressure-testing incoming gas supply lines, disconnect the fryer from the gas
line if the test pressure is ½" PSI [3.45 kPa (14 inches W.C.)] or greater to avoid
damage to the fryer’s gas piping and gas valve(s).
E. Manifold Pressure: Your local service technician should check the manifold pressure with a
manometer.
