Operation Information
OPERATION INFORMATION
A service technician should understand how a gas appliance operates before attempting to service the appliance.
This section provides descriptions of the different types of fuel gases and explains gas heating values. A definition
of specific gravity of gas is given along with its characteristics and effects. Gas combustion principles are explained
and gas burner components are described and illustrated. The end of this section contains illustrations which
demonstrate basic cooking appliance theory of operation.
Types of Fuel Gas:
Gases used to supply heat energy are called fuel gases. Common fuel gases are not simply one kind of hydrocar-
bon, they are mixtures of hydrocarbon gases. They contain other gases as well, such as free hydrogen, carbon
dioxide and nitrogen. As an example, natural gas might contain 85% methane, 12% ethane and 3% of other gases.
The presence of each of these gases in the fuel gas has some effect on the nature of the gas.
Some common fuel gasses are methane [CH4], ethane [C2H6], Propane [C3H8] and butane [C4H10]. Propane and
butane are nearly odorless. Natural gas that is processed to remove condensables and moisture, has little or no
odor and no color. Odorants are added to natural gas before distribution to aid in leak detection. A common odorant
used is a colorless liquid containing sulfur compounds.
Heating Value of Gas:
Heat energy produced when burning a fuel gas is commonly expressed in British Thermal Units (BTU). One BTU of
heat will raise the temperature of one pound of water one degree Fahrenheit.
The more carbon and hydrogen atoms in each molecule of a fuel gas, the higher its heating value. Natural gas
which is high in methane has a heating value of about 950 to 1150 BTU per cubic foot. The variance is due to the
various other substances found in natural gases. The more ethane, propane or butane in the gas raises the heating
value. Propane, or LP gas, has a heating value of about 2500-2800 BTU per cubic foot, and butane about 3200
BTU per cubic foot.
Specific Gravity of Gas:
The specific gravity of a gas is the weight of one cubic foot, or the gas compared to one cubic foot of dry air. When
stating the specific gravity of a gas, a pressure and temperature must be clearly stated. In the gas industry, the
standard conditions of pressure and temperature are 30.0 inches of mercury and 60° F. A pressure of 30.0 inches of
mercury will sustain a column of mercury 30 inches high in a tube with a vacuum on top of the column. Since air is
used as the reference, its specific gravity is always 1.0. This value of 1.0 has no direct physical meaning with
regard to air, such as its density. It is only a relative number or ratio used to express specific gravity of other gases.
The specific gravity of a gas will determine if the gas will rise or fall when released into the air. Natural gas will rise
since its specific gravity is less than 1.0 at 0.4 to 0.8. Propane has a specific gravity of 1.5 and butane 2.0. These
gases will fall when released into the air. They sometimes collect in low spots into pools which become a hazard if
open flames are present.
In addition, specific gravity has two other characteristics. It has an important effect on the flow of gases through ori-
fices, and hence the rating of the burners. Gas flow through an orifice is dependent upon the orifice size and the
gas pressure upstream of the orifice. More of a lighter gas will flow through a given orifice size than a heavier gas
at the same gas pressure. This effect is taken into account in tables and calculators used to select orifice sizes for
burners.
Specific gravity also affects gas flow in pipes. A given driving pressure at a pipe inlet will move more lighter gas
than heavier gas through that pipe.

SSEERRIIEESSOperation Information
PRINCIPLES OF GAS COMBUSTION:
Combustion - When oxygen acts with a substance to produce large amounts of heat rapidly.
Requirements for Combustion - There are three required elements for combustion to occur; Fuel (Gas), Oxygen
(Air) and Heat (Ignition Temperature, which for gas is between 1100°F/593°C and 1200°F/649°C). All must be pres-
ent. Removing any one of the three and combustion will cease.
Chemistry of Combustion - Combustion of gas is a chemical reaction between fuel gas and oxygen. The basic
elements of common fuel gasses are hydrogen [H] and carbon [C]. When hydrogen burns, water vapor [H2O] is pro-
duced. Complete burning of carbon in fuel gases form carbon dioxide [CO2] and water vapor [H2O].
Controlled Combustion - Controlled combustion takes place when gas and air are supplied at proper rates to
assure complete combustion of the gas in a steady flame. When a gas appliance is operating properly, burning
starts at the burner ports. Gas flow is controlled by gas orifice size and gas pressure upstream of the orifice. Air is
mixed with the gas before it passes through the burner ports. This added air is called “Primary Air”. The remaining
air required for complete combustion is supplied to the burner at the point of combustion and is called “Secondary
Air”.
Adjustments of the gas-to-air ratio and the secondary air supply is the key to obtaining stable blue flames at a burn-
er. Proper amounts of primary and secondary air are required for quiet and efficient burner operation and for com-
plete combustion of the gas. Air Shutters or other devices provide control of primary air. Inlet opening and flue out-
lets control Secondary Air flow.
Total air - In an ideal situation, primary and secondary air is all that is needed (for the oxygen required) to burn the
gas, but some additional air is required to assure complete burning of the gas. The total air, “primary”, “secondary”
and “excess” are expressed as percentages of the amount needed. About ten cubic feet of air is required to com-
pletely burn one cubic foot of gas. For this reason an appliance should not be operated in an air tight home.
Limits of Flammability - Not all air-to-gas mixtures will burn. Mixtures with 0% - 4% natural gas in air are too lean
to burn. Mixtures of 4% - 14% natural gas in air can burn with a controlled flame. Flammability limits come into play
when primary air adjustments are made on burners. If too much primary air is used, the mixture may become too
lean and fall below flammability limits, thus preventing combustion.
Incomplete Combustion (Causes and Effects) - To obtain complete combustion, sufficient amounts of air must be
supplied to the process. This air must have a reasonably normal oxygen content. Complete burning of gas pro-
duces harmless carbon dioxide gas and water vapor. If the air supply is insufficient, incomplete combustion occurs
resulting in the formation of toxic by-products, such as carbon monoxide [CO] or aldehydes.
Carbon monoxide is colorless and odorless. Inhaling carbon monoxide in sufficient quantities could cause death by
reducing oxygen levels in the blood.
Aldehydes, which are equally dangerous, have a sharp and penetrating odor which is easily detected by smell at
very low concentrations. The odor caused by aldehydes should not be confused with odorants added to natural gas.
The absence of aldehydes does not assure that carbon monoxide is not present. However, if the odor of aldehydes
is present, then carbon monoxide is virtually always present.
Gas Burner Operation - A gas burner is a device to burn gas under control in order to produce useful heat.
Primary air is brought into the burner from outside of the appliance at atmospheric pressure. The gas jet streaming
from the orifice draws primary air with it into the burner.
The gas/air mixture, combined with a spark at the burner port(s) and the secondary air creates a controlled burn.

BURNER COMPONENTS for 15”, 30” and 36”
Burner Head - The component containing the burner ports where the gas/air mixture ignites. The burner ports are
distributed in a useful pattern to optimize heat transfer. The flames should be spread so they can be easily reached
by secondary air and provide a stable blue flame.
Venturi - Threaded brass pipe that threads into the jet holder through the distribution rings which narrows and then
flares out again. This pipe helps maintain proper and constant primary air injection.
Inner Distribution Ring - Routes the gas from the simmer orifice hood to the simmer port holes located on the
burner cap.
Outer distribution Ring - Routes the gas from the main burner orifice hood to the main burner port holes on the top
of the burner head.
Jet Holder - This component is mounted to the burner mounting bracket and to the burner box. The main burner
orifice is threaded into the jet holder as well as the venturi. It is the main support for the burner components.
Gas Orifice - An opening or hole which regulates or limits the amount of gas flowing to a burner. Gas flow rate (vol-
ume) depends on the size of the orifice (hole) and the gas pressure at the inlet of the orifice.

OPERATION OF THE 15”, 30” and 36” WOLF GAS COOKTOP
Surface Burners
A spark electrode ignites each surface burner. This control eliminates the need for continuous open flame pilots.
For added safety and convenience, each burner is designed with an electronic re-ignition system. This feature
enables any burner to automatically re-light in the event it is accidentally extinguished.
This cooktop has a unique dual stacked burner design that combines all the burner parts in one configuration. A
15K burner providing 15,000 Btu/hr rating on HIGH, Large burners providing a 12,000 Btu/hr rating on HIGH and a
small burner providing 9,200 Btu/hr rating on HIGH. All burners have simmer settings.
A distinguishing feature of Wolf’s low Btu/hr control is its constant, low heat output without continuous ignitions.
Flame diameter remains full size, only the heat output is lowered. This is the ultimate control for simmering food.
After removing burner parts for any reason, it is extremely important that the burners are re-assembled correctly.
The burner cap has a special orientation and should be seated flatly. Rotate burner cap until you feel it drop and
click into position.
This patent pending dual stacked burner configuration makes it possible to enjoy cooking at full flame as well as
maintaining control while simmering at the lowest flame setting.
Grate Placement
Low profile cast iron grates are designed for a close fit. This enables pans to move easily from one burner to anoth-
er without having to lift the pan or have it tip over between the grates. Each grate sets securely on dimples on each
corner of the cooktop pan. Continuous grates are interchangeable with the exception of the single grate.
Control Knobs
Each knob is positioned to correspond to the burner regulated. For the 36-inch cooktop, the knob on the lower left
side regulates the lower left burner. Conversely, the knob on the upper right side regulates the upper right burner.
Each knob on the 30-inch cooktop control panel has a diagram above it. The diagram shows which knob to regu-
late.
It is normal for the knobs to be slightly elevated above the control panel surface. This space is an air inlet neces-
sary for good combustion of gas. Each knob rests on a valve stem with a rubber grommet at the base. This design
prevents liquid spills from dripping into the controls below the burners.
Burner Lighting
Each burner has full flame and full simmer capabilities. Knobs are designed as a two- tiered, “push-to-turn” knob.
One tier is used for HIGH through LOW flame settings. The second tier controls SIMMER settings.
Push down and turn the corresponding control knob counter clockwise to the HIGH setting. You will hear “clicking”
and see the burner ignite. Once the burner is lit, continue turning the knob counter clockwise to any one of the set-
tings, HIGH through LOW.
To select a simmer setting, turn the knob to the LOW setting. You will feel a stop-detente in the knob rotation. Push
down on the knob, continuing to turn it counter clockwise. This moves it to the second tier. Now, select any varia-
tion within the SIMMER flame settings, HIGH through LOW.
Illuminated Control Panel
This unique feature of the cooktop is an instant visual indicator that one or more burners are in use. It is also a
safety signal reminder that a flame is on and active.

General care: Use a clean cloth or sponge, wipe
with warm water and mild detergent. Rinse and
dry immediately. Apply protective polish, always in
the same direction.
Spray degreaser: Removes fingerprints and
greasy spatters. Spray on a cloth and wipe sur-
face. Buff dry immediately to avoid streaking.
Protective polish: Apply to surface to maintain lus-
ter and protect from some food stains
Hard water stains: Use white vinegar and water.
Cool first. Wash in warm water with liquid deter-
gent or mild abrasive cleaners.
Foods high in acid or sugar content, such as milk,
tomatoes, sauerkraut, fruit juices and pie filling,
may pit or craze the surface. Remove as soon as
possible. Do not cook the spill on again.
Remove from cooktop and place on a flat surface
near the sink.
Non-abrasive cleaners: Hot water and liquid deter-
gent, paste of baking soda and water, plastic pad
or sponge.
Mild abrasive and abrasive cleaners: Use sparing-
ly.
To remove the knobs, slip the edge of a dishtowel
under the knob; pull the edge together. Using the
towel for leverage, lift up; the knob pulls off of the
valve stem.
General care: Wipe each knob with a damp cloth
and mild soap and water; rinse and dry. Never
soak or use abrasive cleaners; they will scratch the
finish and remove the markings.
Spray cleaners: Removes fingerprints and greasy
food soils. Spray first on a cloth before wiping
panel.
Keep dry Never spray water or cleaner directly on
the igniter. When cleaning around the surface
burner, be careful that the cloth does not catch on
the igniter and damage it.

Liquid Propane Manifold Pressure
The standard propane gas orifices on the appliance are
set for 10” WC (Water Column Pressure).
Gas Supply Line Size
• 1/2 inch
Gas Supply Pressure
•Maximum line pressure for natural gas and LP is
14” WC; 1/2 psi (3.5 kPa).
•Minimum line pressure for natural gas is 7” WC.
•Minimum line pressure for LP gas is 11” WC.
Gas Pressure Regulator
To control and maintain a uniform gas pressure in the
gas manifold, Wolf gas appliances must be connected
to the gas supply line through a pressure regulator.
The burner orifices are sized for the pressure delivered
by the regulator. Never attempt to operate a Wolf gas
appliance without the use of the proper pressure
regulator.
Gas Shut-off Valve
The supply line must be equipped with an approved
shut-off valve. This valve should be located in accor-
dance to all national, local codes and ordinances.
(See Figure 3-2).
Leak Testing
NEVER USE OPEN FLAMES TO CHECK FOR GAS
LEAKS. ONLY USE A LEAK TESTING SOLUTION
OF SOAPY WATER OR AN ELECTRONIC LEAK
DETECTOR. DO NOT USE LIQUID NEAR VALVE
STEMS.
The maximum gas supply pressure to the regulator
should never exceed 14” WC (Water Column
Pressure); 1/2 psi (3.5kPa)
