Lp Gas - Cal Flame BBQ08873P Owner's Manual

LP Gas

Tank Requirements
For plumbed-in LP installation, use a
convertible regulator and set it for LP
gas.
Maximum line pressure for plumbed-in
propane is 14" WC (3.5 kPa). Minimum
line pressure for propane is 11" WC.
The grill unit must be used with the gas
pressure regulator. The regulator will
control and maintain a uniform gas pres-
sure in the manifold. The burner orifices have been
sized for the gas pressure delivered by the regulator.
WARNING: Attempting to operate the grill unit
without the gas regulator installed could cause an
explosion and possible death.
Cylinder Specification
Any LP gas supply cylinder used with this grill must
be:
• Constructed and marked in accordance with the
Specifications for LP-Gas Cylinders of the
U.S. Department of Transportation or the Na-
tional Standard of Canada, CAN/CSA-B339,
Cylinders, Spheres and Tubes for Trans-
portation of Dangerous Goods; and Com-
mission, as applicable.
• Approximately 12 inches in diameter and 18
inches high.
The maximum fuel capacity is 20 lbs. of propane, or 5
gallons. Full cylinder weight should be approximately
38 lbs. (43.7 lbs. nominal water capacity.) Never fill
the cylinder beyond 80% full.
Place the dust cap on the cylinder valve outlet when-
ever the cylinder is not in use. Only install the type of
dust cap on the cylinder valve outlet that is provided
with the cylinder valve. Other types of caps or plugs
may result in leakage of propane.
LP Gas Hook Up
An enclosure for an LP gas cylinder shall be vented by
openings at the level of the cylinder valve and at floor
level. The effectiveness of the openings for purposes
of ventilation shall be determined with the LP-gas
supply cylinder in place. This shall be accomplished
in one of the following manners:
Barbecue Grills
LTR50001038, Rev. B
1. One side of the enclosure shall be completely
open.
2. Enclosures that have four sides, complete with a
top and bottom:
a. At least two ventilation openings at cylinder
valve level shall be provided in the sidewall,
equally sized, spaced at 180º (3.14 rad), and
unobstructed. Each opening shall have a to-
tal free area of not less than one square inch
per pound (7.1 cm²/kg) of stored fuel capac-
ity, and not less than a total free area of 10
square inches (64.5 cm²).
b. Ventilation openings shall be provided at
floor level and shall have a total free area of
not less than one square inch per pound (7.1
cm²/kg) of stored fuel capacity and not less
than a total free area of 10 square inches
(64.5cm²). If ventilation openings at floor
level are in a sidewall, there shall be at least
two openings. The bottom of the openings
shall be at floor level and the upper edge no
more than 5 inches (127 mm) above the floor.
The openings shall be equally sized, spaced
at 180º (3.14 rad) and unobstructed.
c. Every opening shall have minimum dimen-
sions so as to permit the entrance of a 1/8
inch (3.2 mm) diameter rod.
Transporting and Storing LP Gas
Transport only one cylinder at a time. Ensure the cyl-
inder is secured in an upright position with the con-
trol valve turned off and the dust cap in place. Store
cylinders outdoors and out of reach of children. Do
not store cylinders in a building, garage, or any other
enclosed area.
