Gas Conversion - Henny Penny 500 Technical Manual

2-16. GAS CONVERSION

2-52
Gas model fryers are factory available for either natural gas or
propane gas. Factory conversion kits for natural gas and
propane gas are available that require the burner jets, pilot jet and
regulator assembly to be changed.
Refer to the Technical Manual illustrated parts breakdown for kit
identifi cation.
Conversion must be accomplished by an authorized
Henny Penny dealer or service representative, or personal
injury could result.
Service Hints
On natural gas installation, the gas pressure regulator on
the automatic gas control valve is factory set at 3.5 inch water
column.
On propane gas installations, the gas pressure regulator on
the automatic gas control valve is factory set at 10.0 inch water
column.
After converting the fryer, turn on the gas supply and check for
leaks. A simple method is to brush all the connections with soapy
water, and watch for bubbles which indicate escaping gas.
NEVER USE AN OPEN FLAME TO TEST FOR LEAKS.
ESCAPING GAS COULD CAUSE AN EXPLOSION,
AND PERSONAL INJURY OR PROPERTY DAMAGE
COULD RESULT.
