1.2 SITING
The appliance should be installed on a level, fireproof surface, in a well lit and draught free position.
If the floor is constructed of combustible material, then local fire requirements should be checked
to ensure compliance. A clear space of 150mm should be left between rear and side of unit and
any combustible wall.
Important - If appliance is to be installed in suite formation with other matching units, the instructions
for all models must be consulted to determine the necessary clearances to any combustible rear wall
or overlying surface. Some models require greater clearances than others and the largest figure
quoted in individual instructions will therefore determine the clearance of the complete suite adjoining
appliances.
The oven flue discharges vertically through hob rear. There must be no direct connection of flue to
any mechanical extraction system or to the outside air. Open top burners discharge combustion
products directly into the room.
Care should be taken not to disturb air combustion admission and evacuation on open top burner
models.
1.3 VENTILATION
Adequate ventilation must be provided to supply sufficient fresh air for combustion and allow easy
removal of combustion products which may be harmful to health. Recommendations for Ventilation
of CateringAppliances are given in BS5440:2.
For multiple installations the requirements for individual appliances should be added together.
Installation should be made in accordance with local and/or national regulations applying at the
time. A competent installer MUST be employed.
1.4 GAS SUPPLY
The incoming service must be of sufficient size to supply full rate without excessive pressure drop.
A gas meter is connected to the service pipe by gas supplier. Any existing meter should be
checked by supplier to ensure it is of adequate capacity to pass required rate for appliance in
addition to any other gas equipment installed.
Installation pipe work should be fitted in accordance with IGE/UP/2. The pipe work should be of
adequate size but not smaller than unit gas inlet connection, ie. Rp¾ (¾” B.S.P.). An isolating cock
must be located close by to allow shut-down during an emergency or servicing.
If flexible tube is used, the gas supply tubing or hose shall comply with national requirements in force.
These will be periodically examined and replaced as necessary.
The installation must be tested for gas tightness. Procedure details can be found in IGE/UP/1.
The adjustable governor supplied must be fitted to natural gas appliances.
1.5 ELECTRICAL SUPPLY
This appliance is suitable forAC supplies only.
The standard unit terminal arrangement is for use on a two phase supply (with neutral). By adding a
link, positioned between L1 and L2 on Terminal Block 1, the range can be converted for single
phase. Refer to wiring diagram for further information.
The electrical ratings are:
230V~ (6.5kW) or
400V 2N~ (6.5kW) - L1 = 3.3kW / L2 = 3.2kW
