4. Description of the rotisserie
4.1 Technical description
Heating takes place by means of gas that is burnt in a heat exchanger placed in the ceiling. A fan mixes the
gas and air, which mixture is ignited by means of an automatic ignition. The combustion takes place in the
inner part of the heat exchanger and is therefore not visible. The flue gasses are discharged through a flue
tube at the top or side off the rotisserie. Fans ensures an equally divided heat. To maintain the set
temperature, the heat exchanger is modulating and repeatedly switched on and off during the grilling
process.
During the entire process, the interior of the rotisserie will be illuminated by halogen lamps.
The rotisserie control keeps the temperature inside the rotisserie fixed to level set by the operator.
The rotor is being wheeled by a maintenance-free motor and gearbox. The hardened glass panes are
equipped with a heat reflecting layer to keep the heat inside the grill.
The plating of the rotisserie is made of stainless steel. The product contact parts are made of stainless
steel AISI 304. The mains cable is provided with a plug.
Refer to the data plate for the applicable gas system.
4.2 Intended use
The rotisserie has been designed for grilling meat products and has a semi self-cleaning feature. Any other
use will not be regarded as intended use.

The gas inlet is located on the bottom side, under the electric compartment. (marked 4 in drawing
below)
With a gas conduit (not included) you can lead the gas connection to the main gas supply. Connect the
rotisserie to the gas line after leveling. Gas supply line must be at least the equivalent of 1/2“ (12.7 mm)
iron pipe and capable of maintaining the required gas pressure during full power. Make sure the pipes
are clean and free of obstructions,dirt, and piping compound.
Note: After the piping has been checked for leaks, fully purge gas pipes to remove air. Disconnect the
rotisserie from the gas supply piping system during any pressure testing on the gas supply piping
system.
Note: Check all joints in the gas supply line for leaks prior to start up the rotisserie. You can use a
soap and water solution. Do not use an open flame.
5.4.1 Gas inlet pressure

17
The gas inlet pressure has to be according to the table on the technical data page. (Chapter 1)
The pressure can be checked on the gas block with a pressure meter like in the picture below.
Gas inlet: Inlet of gas after gas pressure reduction valve (max. 22“ H2O).
Pressure depending of gas type.
Gas outlet: Outlet of gas into gas mixture blower.
Coils: 2 Coils for the gas valves.
Inlet pressure: Measuring tube for gas pressure after reduction valve.
In order to measure loosen the screw on inside of the tube.

18
Measuring notes:
•Inlet pressure: During operation you measure the pressure of the setting of the reduction
•Outlet pressure: During operation you measure a pressure of zero.
You can use this measuring point also to check if the gas valves are opening. When you start up the
machine and the valve is not opened yet you measure a under pressure due to the suction of the gas
mixture blower and this pressure will be zero when the valve is opened.
5.4.2 Flue gas analyzer
