Installing End Skirts; Electrical Connections; Hood Lights / Fan And/Or Thermal (Tempering); Keypads Or Touchscreens - Accurex XBEW Installation, Operation And Maintenance Manual

Installing End Skirts

1. After the hood is hung in position, line up the top of
the end skirt with the end panels of the hood.
2. Drill a hole in the hood end panel to line up with
the hole in the end skirt. Attach the end skirt with a
1/4 in. bolt and cap nut to the inside of the hood, or
tack-weld the end skirt to the hood.
3. Position the end skirt against the wall and attach.
The method depends on the wall construction.
(Fasteners provided by others).
4. Caulk the internal joint formed by the end skirt and
the hood end panel with NSF Approved silicone
caulk (GE SCS1009 or its equivalent). The caulk is
not provided.
FIG. 20
5. To allow for ease in cleaning, also caulk all the
external seams.

Electrical Connections

See pages 25-28 for more wiring details regarding the
fire system, fan control and switches.
Hood Lights
If the hood is provided with lights, a junction box will
be located on top of the hood for field connections.
Use minimum 14 AWG copper wire. Light bulbs will
not be provided (unless equipped with round LED style
fixtures). For incandescent or compact fluorescent (CFL)
fixtures, standard light bulbs with E26 base types up to
100 watts may be used. For fluorescent fixtures, consult
information on inside of fixture for recommended tube
type.

CAUTION
For multiple hood systems that have more than 14
lights total, incandescent, the hood lights must be
wired to multiple circuits. Each circuit must have less
than 14 lights total.
WARNING
All 115 VAC field wiring (or higher) must be high
temperature rated and must be routed through hard
or flex conduit. All low voltage field wiring should be
plenum rated if not routed through conduit. All wiring
should not come in contact with the surface of the
hood.
Round LED Hood Light
If provided with 8-inch (20.32 cm) round LED hood
lights, wire the light power (115 VAC) using black and
white wires. Each light fixture uses 20 watts.

Hood Light, Fan and/or Thermal (Tempering) Switches
If the hood is provided with hood light, fan and/or
thermal (tempering) switches and the switches are
located on a hood mounted utility cabinet or on the face
of the hood, a junction box will be located on top of the
hood for field connections and must be connected in
the field (unless factory-wired). Use minimum 14 AWG
copper wire for all 115 VAC field connections. Standard
switches will be rated for 15 amps. Higher amperage
switches are available upon request.

Keypads or Touchscreens

(Kitchen Controls / Autoscrubber)
If the hood system is equipped with a Kitchen Control
or Autoscrubber control panel, it may be equipped with
either a keypad or touchscreen that can be mounted on
a hood-mounted utility cabinet or mounted on the face
of the hood. The keypad/touchscreen may be factory
connected and wired to a female-to-female connector
on top of the hood where the field will have to run
factory-provided cabling from this connector back to the
control panel. See the Autoscrubber or Kitchen Controls
wiring schematic and Installation and Operation Manual
for more details.

Supply Plenum LED Puck Lights

If the hood is provided with supply plenums equipped
with 115 VAC LED puck lights, a junction box will be
located on top of the plenum for field connections. Use
minimum 14 AWG copper wire for field connections.
Each light uses 3.5 watts.
