Gas requirements
Verify the type of gas supplied to the location. The cooktop is shipped from the factory set up and adjusted for Natural Gas or LP, depending on the specific model ordered.
Verify that the cooktop is compatible with gas supply at the installation site before proceeding further. Return the cooktop to the dealer if the unit is not set for the gas supplied at the site.
NATURAL GAS
Connection: 1/2" NPT Minimum 5/8" dia. flex line.
●
LP Gas
Connection: 1/2" NPT Minimum 5/8" dia. flex line.
●
A regulator is required at the LP source to provide a maximum pressure of 14" W.C. to the cooktop regulator.
●
Requirements for hook-up to gas supply
A manual shut-off valve (supplied by the installer) must be installed in an accessible location in the gas line external to the appliance
●
for the purpose of turning on or shutting off gas to the appliance. (In Massachusetts such shut-off valves should be approved by the
Board of State Examiners of Plumbers & Gas Fitters.) The shut-off valve must be located within 6 feet (1.8 meters) of the appliance it serves.
Make sure the gas supply is turned off at the wall valve before connecting the appliance. The gas supply connections should be made
by a qualified technician and in accordance with local codes or ordinances. In the absence of a local code, the installation must conform
to the latest edition of National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1.
To prepare the unit for connection to the gas supply, thread the supplied 1/2" pipe nipple into the elbow on the end of the manifold.
●
The elbow is located inside the chassis of the unit, on the end of the manifold, facing down. It is accessible through the square cutout
in the left rear corner of the chassis bottom. Connect the outlet of the regulator to the exposed end of the nipple, connect the flex line
from the gas supply to the inlet side of the regulator.
Warning: this appliance must be installed by a licensed plumber or gas fitter when within the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.
●
IMPORTANT!
Fisher & Paykel recommends installing the manual shutoff valve in a location readily accessible by the customer, so that gas to the appliance
●
can be shut off in an emergency situation. However, the appliance must not be modified in any way to accommodate such placement.
Pipe sealant must be used on all pipe threads.
●
The gas supply line must not protrude beyond the back of the appliance.
●
Make sure the gas supply is turned off at the wall valve before connecting the appliance
●
Leak-testing of the appliance shall be conducted according to the manufacturer's instructions. See instructions following.
●
The appliance must be isolated from the building's gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shut-off valve
●
during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psig (3.5kPa.).
The appliance and its individual shut-off valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any pressure
testing of the system at the test pressures in excess of 1/2 psig (3.5kPa.).
When checking the manifold gas pressure, the inlet pressure to the regulator should be at least 7.0" W.C. for natural gas or
12.0" for LP.
The flex line for the gas supply must be metal and be approved for appliance use by a certifying agency (CSA, CGA, or UL).
●
Never use a hose made of rubber or other synthetic material, as the heat may cause the hose to melt and develop leaks.
The arrow on the regulator indicating direction of gas flow should be pointing towards the unit.
