Installation instructions
FOR NATURAL GAS
Maximum Capacity of pipe in Cubic Feet of Gas per Hour for Gas Pressure of 0.5 Psig or less and a Pressure drop
of 0.3 in Water Column (0.75mbar).(Based on a 0.60 Specific Gravity Gas) Btu numbers given in thousands.
Fig. 26
Follow boxed numbers for piping just one GWH-450-ESR (example: ¾” B.I. Natural Gas pipe for 20 ft
(6.1m). will handle 190,000 btu’s (55.7 kWh). For multiple appliances combine the total btu input load and
then refer to applicable chart below. Follow the shaded numbers for just one GWH-345-ESR.
* EHD = Equivalent Hydraulic Diameter. The greater the
value of EHD, the greater the gas capacity of the tubing
.
Maximum Capacity of Semi-Rigid (flexible, non
corrugated) Tubing in Thousands of BTU per Hour of
Undiluted Liquefied Petroleum Gases (at 11 inches
Water Column Inlet Pressure).
(Based on a Pressure Drop of 0.5 Inch Water Column)
* Source National Fuel Gas Code NFPA 54, ANSI
Z223.1 - No Additional Allowance is necessary for an
ordinary number of fittings
FOR LP GAS
Maximum Capacity of Pipe in Thousands of BTU per Hour of Undiluted Petroleum Gases (at 11 inches Water Column Inlet
Pressure) (Based on a Pressure Drop of 0.5 Inch Water Column).
* EHD = Equivalent Hydraulic Diameter. The greater the
value of EHD, the greater the gas capacity of the tubing.
