2-7. GAS PIPING Please refer below for the recommended hookup of the fryer to
main gas line supply.
To avoid possible serious personal injury:
• Installation must conform with American National
Standard Z223.1-Latest Edition National Fuel Gas
Code and the local municipal building codes.
In Canada, installation must be in accordance with
Standard CSA Bl49-1&2, Installation Codes Gas
Burning Appliances and local codes. In Australia,
installation must conform to Australian require-
ments.
• The fryer and its manual shutoff valve must be
disconnected from the gas supply piping system
during any pressure testing of that system at test
pressures in excess of 1/2 psig (3.45 kPa)
(34.47 mbar).
• The fryer must be isolated from the gas supply
piping system by closing its manual shutoff
valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply
piping system at test pressures equal to or less than
1/2 psig. (3.45 kPa) (34.47 mbar).
• A standard 1/2 inch, black steel pipe and malleable
fittingsshould be used for gas service connections.
• Do not use cast iron fittings.
• Although 1/2 inch size pipe is recommended, piping
should be of adequate size and installed to provide
a supply of gas sufficient to meet the maximum
demand without undue loss of pressure between the
meter and the fryer. The pressure loss in the piping
system should not exceed 0.3 inch water column
(0.747 mbar).
Provisions should be made for moving the fryer for
cleaning and servicing. This may be accomplished by:
1. Installing a manual gas shutoff valve and a disconnect
union, or
2. Installing a heavy duty design A.G.A. certified
connector which complies with the Standard for
Connectors for Moveable Gas Appliances, ANSI Z21.6,
or CAN/CSA 6.16 with a quick disconnect coupling
