Alto-Shaam AS F-60G - Manual (Page 10)

Use an approved gas
pipe sealant at all
external threaded
connections, gas
piping used on gas
connections must
avoid sharp bends
that may restrict the
flow of gas to the
appliance. If the
connected pressure exceeds 14.0" W.C. (3.5 kPa), a
step-down regulator is required to be supplied by the
owner/operator.
Close the individual manual shut-off valve to
isolate the fryer from the gas supply piping system
during any pressure testing at test pressures equal to
or less than 1/2 psig. (3.4 kPa). The fryer and
individual shut-off valve must be disconnected
from the gas supply piping system during
any pressure testing at pressures in
excess of 1/2 psig. (3,4 kPa).
In the U.S.A., installation must conform to local
codes or, in the absence of local codes, with the
current edition of the National Fuel Gas Code,
NFPA-54 and ANSI Z83.11a CSA 1.8a 2004 (or
latest edition). In Canada, installation must be in
accordance with local codes, CAN/CGA-B149.1,
Installation for Natural Gas Burning Appliances
and Equipment (latest edition) or CAN/CGA-
B149.2 Installation for Propane Burning
Appliances and Equipment (latest edition).
The inlet supply line must be properly sized to
accommodate all individual appliances
simultaneously used on the same line but must
never be smaller than 3/4 " I.D.
LEAK TESTING
Installation requires gas leak testing on all gas
piping and fittings. Use an approved electronic leak
device or a soap and water solution at all gas
connections. If bubbling appears when using a soap
and water solution, the connection must be refitted.
Never use an open flame to leak test.
