sentative.
If there is a power failure, turn cook/filter
switch OFF. On the Model 2400GH, also
slide switch on gas valve OFF. DO NOT
attempt to operate unit during a power fail-
ure.
2400GH: Post, in prominent locations,
instructions to be followed in the event that
the user smells gas. This information can be
obtained from your local gas supplier.
Failure to read and
understand this manual
completely could result in serious injury
or death. Be sure ALL operators read,
understand and have access to this
manual at all times.
Rags or paper containing
cooking oil can catch fire
if exposed to heat. Laundering will not
remove the oil. Dispose of all oil-soiled
papers and rags in a trash container that
is in a ventilated area away from all
cooking equipment or other heat
sources such as direct sunlight.
If at any time the POWER
ON light does not turn off
when the cook/filter switch is moved to
the OFF position, contact your local
Broaster Company representative for
service immediately.
DO NOT operate unit
without filter pan and filter
pan cover in its proper position. Filter
pan cover must be wiped clean after
each filtering cycle.

LOCATION
For convenience and speed, location of the
unit should be given careful consideration.
If possible, locate the unit so the flow of
cooked product is in a straight line from
storage, in and out of the unit and to the
customer. Landing tables should be pro-
vided on at least one side of the unit.
• To avoid splashing of hot liquid, unit
must be restrained to prevent tipping.
This can be done by installing the unit in
a battery of appliances, in an alcove or
with adequate ties
• Provision must be made to eliminate
movement of the unit which might cause
strain on electrical and gas connections.
• DO NOT install unit where traffic areas
are on either side or in back of unit.
CLEARANCE
USA & EU:
Gas units are to be installed only in non-
combustible locations. Minimum clear-
ances for non-combustible construc-
tion is 0 inches from sides and 6 inches
from back.
CANADA:
Gas units are certified for installation on
a combustible floor. Minimum clear-
ances for combustible construction is 1
inch from sides and 6 inches from back.
LEVELING
Adjust front feet to level entire unit. Add
additional blocking if necessary on a slop-
ing floor.
broaster.com Manual #14678 1/99 Rev 2/14

RECOMMENDED VENTILATION
REQUIREMENTS
Exhaust hood should comply with ANSI/
NFPA #96 or national, state and local
codes. All units must be under an adequate
power exhaust hood for ventilation of cook-
ing vapors and products of combustion.
Precautions should be taken in the design
of the exhaust hood to avoid interference
with operation of the unit. Consult a local
ventilation company for fire suppression,
design and installation of a hood.
DO NOT extend the
exhaust stack or exhaust
flue of any unit. Doing so may cause a neg-
ative back draft causing malfunction and
interference with burner operation on the
1800GH and improper exhausting of cook-
ing vapors on all units.
General Requirements:
1. Exhaust hood must conform to appli-
cable national, state and local codes.
2. It is recommended that requirements
of the National Fire Protection Associ-
ation (NFPA), Standard No. 96 be fol-
lowed for the design, installation and
use of exhaust system components.
This includes hoods, grease removal
devices, exhaust ducts, dampers, air
moving devices, auxiliary equipment
and fire extinguishing equipment for
the exhaust system and the cooking
equipment used therewith in commer-
cial, industrial, institutional and similar
cooking applications.
3. Hood Size: The overhead canopy
type hood should be sized to com-
pletely cover the equipment it is
designed to ventilate plus an overhang
of at least 6 inches on all sides of
equipment not immediately adjacent
to walls or other construction extend-
ing above the cooking surface. Non-
canopy, prefabricated “backshelf”
type hoods should be sized according
to the manufacturers specifications.
4. Exhaust Air Volume (minimum):
Canopy hood open on all four sides:
1800 cu. ft./minute. Canopy hood
open on three sides or less: 1200 cu.
ft./minute.
5. Exhaust Air Velocity: All exhaust
ducts should be sized to provide an air
velocity in the ducts of at least 1500
ft./minute.

ELECTRICAL CHARACTERISTICS
These models are available for either 208,
240 or 480 applied voltage, 60Hz, 3 phase
electrical connection in the USA and sev-
eral voltages for export applications.
Be sure to check the wiring diagram located
inside the front panel. It shows electrical
circuits and connections. See Access For
Hook-Up under ELECTRICAL HOOK-UP.
• All electrical work must conform with the
requirements of national, state and local
electrical codes.
• When installing or servicing the unit,
always check the dataplate located on
the front panel (1600) or toward the rear
of the counter top (1800) to make cer-
tain proper parts are used and the cor-
rect service rendered. DO NOT apply a
voltage to any unit other than that
shown on the dataplate. If in doubt,
consult your local power company.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
• A remote circuit breaker or fuse should
be installed in main power supply
located in a path of exit and clearly iden-
tified.
• When installed, the unit must be electri-
cally grounded in accordance with local
codes, or in the absence of local codes,
with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/
NFPA 70, or for Canada, the Canadian
Electrical Code, CSA C22.2, as applica-
ble.
• Use copper wire only for connections.
• If power run is over 50 feet, use next
larger size wire.

ELECTRICAL HOOK-UP
WARNING: Disconnect
main power supply and
turn unit OFF before installing power supply
to the unit. High voltage may be encoun-
tered. Only persons trained and equipped
for checking high voltage shall perform
electrical connections.
Access For Hook-Up:
1. Disconnect main power supply.
2. Remove condensate pan and one
screw (1600) or two screws (1800)
from bottom of front panel. Pull out
and down on bottom to remove.
Phase Wiring:
Phase wiring diagram is located inside the
front panel. See Access For Hook-Up
under ELECTRICAL HOOK-UP.
Electric units are shipped from the factory
wired for 3 phase. In this case, applied
voltage must be connected to L1, L2 and
L3 of contactor C1 and a ground wire to the
GND connector.
For single phase operation, remove both
element wires from the center connector of
contactor C2. Install wire #3 with wires #1
and #5 and install wire #2 with wires #4 and
#6. In this case, applied voltage must be
connected to L1 and L3 of contactor C1
and a ground wire to the GND connector.
3Ph 50/60Hz
1Ph. 50/60Hz
Note: Check all contactor screw connections to be sure they are fully tightened for proper
electrical continuity.
