SSPG14: Floor Model High Efficiency Gas Pasta Cooker INSTALLATION
L20-331, rev.02 (08/11) 5
WARNING
NEVER supply the appliance with a gas other than the one that is indicated on the data
plate. Using the incorrect gas type will cause improper operation and could result in serious
injury or death. If you need to convert the appliance to another type of fuel, contact the
dealer you purchased it from.
1.5. GAS CONNECTION
Your appliance will give you peak performance when the gas supply line is of sufficient size to provide the correct gas
flow. The gas line must be installed to meet the local building codes or National Fuel Gas Code ANS Z223.1 and
NFPA 54 (latest editions). In Canada, install the appliance in accordance with CSA B149.1 or .2 and local codes. Gas
line sizing requirements can be determined by a qualified installation professional, your local gas company or by
referring to the National Gas Fuel Code, Appendix C, Table C-4 (for natural gas) and Table C-16 (for propane). The
gas line needs to be large enough to supply the necessary amount of fuel to all appliances without losing pressure to
any appliance. A properly sized and installed gas line will deliver a supply pressure between 7.0” W.C. (17.4 mbars,
1.74 kPa) and 10.0” W.C. (24.9 mbars, 2.49 kPa) natural gas or between 11.0” W.C. (27.4 mbars, 2.74 kPa) and 13.0”
W.C. (32.4 mbars, 3.25 kPa) propane to all appliances connected to the supply line, operating simultaneously at full
demand. The pressure at the gas valve must not exceed 1/2 PSI.
Each appliance is equipped to operate on one certain fuel type. The type of fuel with which the appliance is intended
to operate is stamped on the data plate, which is attached to the inside of the door.
1.5.1. QUICK DISCONNECT CONNECTION
In North America gas appliances equipped with casters must be installed with connectors that comply with the
Standard for Movable Gas Appliances, ANSI Z21.69 • CSA 6.16 latest edition. This connection should include a
quick disconnect device that complies with the Standard for Quick Disconnect Devices for Use With Gas Fuel,
ANSI Z21.41 • CSA 6.9 latest edition.
When installing the appliance you must also install adequate means for limiting the movement of the appliance
without depending on the connector or quick-disconnect device or it’s associated piping to limit the movement of
the appliance. The restraining device should be attached to the appliance on the back panel.
1.5.2. FUEL SUPPLY LINE LEAK AND PRESSURE TESTING
The fuel supply system must be tested before the appliance is used. If the fuel line is going to be tested at a
pressure greater than 1/2 PISG (3.45 kPa), insure that that appliance is disconnected from the fuel line. If the fuel
line is to be tested at a pressure equal to or less than 1/2 PSIG (3.45 kPa), the appliance can be connected
during the test, but the unit’s gas valve must be shut. Test all gas line connections for leaks with leak detection
solution, or a solution of soap and water when pressure is applied.
NOTICE
NEVER use an adapter to make a smaller gas supply line fit the appliance connection. This
may not allow proper gas flow for optimum burner operation, resulting in poor performance
and improper operation.
