Wells WFGA-60FS Fryer User Manual


 
VENTILLATION REQUIREMENTS
A single WFGA-60FS gas-fired fryer requires a minimum of 700 cubic
feet per hour (12 CFM) make-up air. The ventilation for the kitchen
must have sufficient capacity to prevent a negative-pressure condition.
DO NOT obstruct or restrict ventilation and make-up air required to
support combustion.
PLUMBING INSTALLATION
The installation of this fryer must conform to local codes. In the
absence of local codes, the installation of this fryer must conform with
the National Fuel Gas Code (ANSI Z223.1). In Canada, the National
Gas Installation Code (CAN/CGAB149.2) is applicable.
In any instance where gas supply pressure is in excess of 15” water
pressure (1/2 psi or 3.45kP), the fryer must be isolated from the supply
piping by closing its two individual manual shut-off valves (see fig. 3).
IMPORTANT: Failure to isolate the fryer from excessive pressure will
damage the gas valves and allow raw gas to leak into the room.
This fryer is orificed at the factory for natural gas at a pressure of 3.5” of
water column. The installed orifice is suitable for use at -280 to 2999
feet (-85 to 914 meters) elevation. It is the responsibility of the installer
to install the factory recommended orifice and pressure regulator kit
suitable for the fuel type and elevation at the final installation site.
The red tag (p/n 301217) attached to the gas connection provides
pressure settings and part numbers for conversion kits applicable to
various fuels and altitudes. (See fig.4 below)
