Combustion Seal/Trim Piece; Gas Supply And Connection - Norcold 9162 Installation Requirements

Combustion Seals Inspection
and Trim Piece Installation
Combustion seals are attached to the
back surface of the mounting flanges (top,
bottom, and both sides). These seals iso-
late the products of combustion from the
vehicle's living space. When installing or
removing the refrigerator, insure that the
seal strips are not disturbed.
Remove the bottom trim piece and the
mounting screws from bag located in the
coils at rear of the refrigerator. Slide refrig-
erator into enclosure until only four (4)
inches of refrigerator remain outside en-
closure. Roll the bottom trim piece into
place as illustrated in Figure 6. Slide re-
frigerator securely against vehicle's inte-
rior wall. Using the four screws provided,
secure the refrigerator to vehicle's interior
wall through holes in the top and bottom
trim pieces. Press screw covers into trim
pieces. Additional mounting holes are pro-
vided at the bottom rear of the refrigerator.
Norcold recommends that at least two of
these holes be used to mount the refrig-
erator.
To remove bottom trim piece from refrig-
erator, remove screw covers and all
mounting screws. Pull refrigerator forward
to gain access to bottom trim piece re-
moval holes. From the bottom of refrigera-
tor, insert a screwdriver through the holes
to release bottom trim piece. Pull top trim
piece forward for removal. Do not omit
installation of the bottom and top trim
pieces. These trim pieces are part of
the combustion seal.

Gas Supply and Connection

This refrigerator is designed to operate on propane gas at a supply pressure of 11 inches water column. A
pressure regulator is required between the refrigerator and the main gas tank. Do not connect the refrigerator
directly to the main propane tank without a pressure regulator.
Use supply piping and fittings that comply with local, state, and national codes governing type and size. These
components should also comply with NFPA 501C. Flexible metal connectors must comply with current CAN1-6.10
Standard. To prevent gas pressure loss to refrigerator, the propane should be supplied by 3/8 inch diameter copper
piping. The gas supply piping is connected to refrigerator by means of a 3/8 inch SAE (UNF 5/8-18) male flare
connection.
