Gas Pressure Regulator
The gas pressure regulator supplied with this cooktop must be
used. The inlet pressure to the regulator should be as follows for
proper operation:
Natural Gas:
Minimum pressure: 5" (12.7 cm) WCP
Maximum pressure: 7" to 14" (17.8 cm to 35.5 cm) WCP
LP Gas:
Minimum pressure: 11" (27.9 cm) WCP
Maximum pressure: 14" (35.5 cm)WCP
Contact local gas supplier if you are not sure about the inlet
pressure.
Burner Input Requirements
Input ratings shown on the model/serial
rating plate are for
elevations up to 2,000 ft (609.6 m).
For elevations above 2,000 ft (609.6 m), ratings are reduced at a
rate of 4% for each 1,000 ft (304.8 m) above sea level (not
applicable for Canada).
For elevations above 6,560 ft (1999.5 m) a high altitude kit is
needed to avoid any reduced power output. See separate LP gas
conversion instructions sheet.
Gas Supply Pressure Testing
Gas supply pressure for testing regulator must be at least
1" water column pressure above the manifold pressure shown on
the model/serial
rating plate.
Line pressure testing above 1/2psi gauge (14" WCP)
The cooktop and its individual shutoff valve must be
disconnected
from the gas supply piping system during any
pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of
1/2psi (3.5 kPa).
Line pressure testing at 1/2psi gauge (14" WCP) or lower
The cooktop 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 1/2psi (3.5 kPa).
