Model OFE/OFG-321,322,323,324
2-6. GAS SUPPLY • The fryer and its manual shutoff valve must be disconnected
(Continued) from the gas supply piping system during any pressure
testing of that system at test pressures in excess of ½ PSIG
(3.45 kPa) (34.5 mbar).
• The fryer must be isolated from the gas supply piping
system by closing its individual manual shutoff valve
during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping
system at test pressures equal to or less than ½ PSIG
(3.45 kPa) (34.5 mbar).
• A standard one inch (2.54 cm), black steel pipe and
malleable fittings should be used for gas service connections
for 3 well open fryers, 3/4 inch (1.91 cm) for 2 wells, and 1/2
inch (1.27 cm) for single wells.
• Do not use cast iron fittings.
• Although one inch (2.54 cm) size pipe is recommended for
3 wells, 3/4 inch (1.91 cm) for 2 wells, and 1/2 inch (1.27 cm)
for single wells, 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 open fryer. The pressure loss in the piping
system should not exceed 0.3 in. water column (0.747 mbar).
Provisions should be made for moving the open fryer for
cleaning and servicing. This may be accomplished by:
1. Installing a manual gas shut off valve and a disconnect
union, or
2. Installing a heavy-duty design A.G.A. certified
connector. In order to be able to service this appliance,
which is provided with casters, a connector complying
with ANSI Z21.69 or CAN 1-6.l0m88 and a
quick-disconnect device, complying with ANSI Z21.41
or CAN 1-6.9m70, must be installed. It must also be
installed with restraining means to guard against
transmission of strain to the connector as specified in
the appliance manufacturer's instruction.
3. See the illustration on the following page for the proper
connection of flexible gas line and cable restraint.
The cable restraint limits the distance the open fryer can be
pulled from the wall. For cleaning and servicing the unit,
the cable must be unsnapped from the open fryer and the
flexible gas line disconnected. This will allow better
access to all sides of the open fryer. The gas line and cable
restraint must be reconnected once the cleaning or
servicing is complete.
