SAFETY INFORMATION
B. SPECIAL NOTES:
- This device requires outlet pressure of 7 inches of
water column.
If pressure is greater than 1/2 psi, make sure that
an inline regulator is present.
Prior to 1998, all residual gas service regulators
were set with an outlet pressure of 7 inches of
water column.
In the 1998 edition of NFPA 54, the National Fuel
Gas Code, a change was made allowing service
regulators of 2 and 5 psi.
With this change it was also required that an
inline regulator be connected between the service
regulator and the applience regulator if the 2 or 5
psi system is used. This additional regulator is not
supplied with the product.
It is possible for a consumer, making the connec-
tion themselves, or a plumber, not checking, to
tap into a 2 or 5 psi line. If a pressure of 2 psi or
greater is supplied to the appliance regulator on
certain appliances it will shut down and not de-
liver any gas to the appliance. Additional concerns
are raised by the fact that both the quick connect
socket and the gas hose are only rated to 1/2 psi.
If the quick disconnect socket, hose and oven are
properly connected and still not getting gas, deliv-
erypressureneedstobeveried.
