Operation, Maintenance and Installation Manual for the Gaylord Command Center and Wash Control Cabinet. 2. ELX and ELX-UVi Series Ventilators installed in the United States all include a Gaylord Autostart Control. In some instances Ventilators installed outside the United States will include an Autostart Control.
Model Description OVERVIEW The Gaylord Model EL Series Ventilator uses a Listed baffle filter and the ELX uses a Gaylord Model XGS high grease Extractor. The Model ELX-UVi Series includes the additional feature of an Ultraviolet Light System that removes up to 99% of the grease particulate.
Model Number Explanation Model Number Sequence Gaylord Ventilator model numbers are made up of an alphabetic prefix followed by a series of alphabetic and/or numeric suffixes to designate the style of ventilator and various options. Sequence of model numbers is as follows.

To turn off the exhaust fan flip the fan switch to the off position Note 1: If the Ventilator includes a Gaylord Autostart Controller the exhaust fan will stay on if the temperature at the duct collar is above 90°F. Once the temperature drops below 90°F., the fan will continue to run for 60 minutes and then shut off.
Fire Protection Fire Damper The EL and ELX Series Ventilator may be equipped with a combination Gaylord Fire Damper/Balancing Damper, designated “GFBD” in the Ventilator model number. If equipped, a 250°F. thermostat will be mounted at the entrance of the exhaust duct collar (refer to Figure 2-3-1). In the event or a fire and the thermostat reaches 250°F., the following will occur:...

If is the following will occur: If the exhaust and supply fan were on the exhaust fan would stay on and the supply fan would shut off.
Caution: Never operate the Ventilator without the XGS extractors in place. Refer to Figure 2-5-2. Operation of the exhaust fan and UV Lamps is controlled by the Gaylord Command Center (refer to Figure 2-6-1). To start the exhaust fan and turn on the UV Lamps push START FAN on the Command Center. The Command Center may be programmed to automatically start the exhaust fan at a specific time.

45 seconds for the exhaust air to come up to 100%. Note 4: The ELX-UVi Series Ventilator may be equipped with a Gaylord Autostart Controller that automatically turns on the exhaust fan if the temperature at the exhaust duct collar exceeds 90° F. If the Ventilator does include Autostart, the Ventilator will include one or more sensors mounted in the canopy (Refer to Figure 2-5-2).

UV Status Lights Grease Extraction Grease is removed from the exhaust air by combination of the Gaylord Model XGS Extractors and the UV Lamps (Refer to Figure 2-8-1). The hot contaminate-laden air rising from the cooking surface is drawn through the Extractors where a high percentage of the grease and other particulate are extracted from the airstream.

Balancing Dampers Balancing Dampers Overview The ELXC and ELXC-UVi Series Ventilators, as a standard, come with one of three models of Gaylord Indus- tries Listed Balancing Dampers. Balancing dampers would typically be used when two or more Ventilators are connected to a common exhaust fan. The purpose of the balancing damper is to raise or lower the air- flow of each Ventilator to achieve the desired exhaust rate.

Measuring Airflow – Static Pressure Method – Multiple Section Ventilators – Electric Dampers Balancing Dampers Model GEBD (Gaylord Electric Balancing Damper) and Model GFBD (Gaylord Fire Bal- ancing Damper) are electrically adjusted. Adjustment is made by use of a potentiometer, one for each damper, typically mounted in a junction box located near the Ventilator in the kitchen area (refer to Figure 5-3-2).

Then divide this total by the number of Extractors. The result is called the Total Average Velocity (TAV). The Gaylord Model XGS Extractors come in two sizes, a nominal 11” H x 16” W, Model XGS-11, and a nominal 18” H x 16” W, Model XGS-18. It is necessary to know the area of an Extractor, in sq. ft., to determine the exhaust volume.

Chapter 5 – Testing and Repair Page 5-8 Measuring Airflow – Cont. Measuring Airflow – Velocity Method – Cont. Example: Assume you have seven 11” x 16” Extractors and the average velocity of each Extractor is: 394+368+392+402+399+379+388 = 2722 divided by 7 = 389 (rounded up). This is your TAV (Total Average Velocity).
Make-Up Air Guidelines Capture Performance All Gaylord Ventilators are factory engineered to operate at a specific exhaust volume, CFM (Cubic Feet per Minute), based on, primarily, the type of cooking appliance, and the exact model of the Ventilator. Capture performance is based on two primary functions, 1) the ventilator is exhausting the engineered CFM and 2) the make-up air is being introduced correctly.
Page 48
Make-Up Air Guidelines – Cont. Following these guidelines will result in proper cap- ture and containment at the Ventilator and enact the Gaylord Capture Performance Guarantee. If jobsite conditions cannot accommodate these guidelines, consult Gaylord Industries for alternative design. Figure 5-12-1...

Ventilator Listing The Gaylord Model ELX and ELX-UVi Series Ventilators are listed to UL 710 and Recognized by ETL. Any modification made to the Ventilator at the jobsite will void the listing. Hanging the Ventilator Use the following guidelines for hanging the Gaylord Ventilator: 1.
Page 82
Appendix A, Page A-2 Installation Requirements – Cont. 1. Caution: When installing Ventilators incorporating a UV system, ELX-UVi Series, do not cover the UV Ballast Box, mounted on top of the Ventilator, with building insulation. Covering the Ballast Box inlet and outlet ventilation openings will cause the box to overheat which could result in failure of electrical components.

NFPA-96 requires a Fire Extinguishing System in all Ventilators that cover grease producing cooking equipment. In many cases the Fire Extinguishing System is pre-piped by Gaylord Industries in the factory with completion of the system by a local Fire System contractor. If not pre-piped then the entire system would be installed by a local Fire System contractor.
Ventilator Start-Up Inspection and Tests Overview As one of the benefits of purchasing a Gaylord ELX or ELX-UVi Series Ventilator is a complete Start-Up Inspection is performed by a Gaylord Authorized Representative or a Gaylord Authorized Service Agency. These tests must be conducted prior to use by the operator. Typically at the time the Start-Up Inspection is performed, the operation and general operator maintenance of the Gaylord equipment is demonstrated and described to the operating personnel.
