FAN OPERATION

To operate the exhaust fan turn on the fan switch that is typi­cally mounted on a wall near the hood. The “XG” hood may
be equipped with a fan, auto start controller, and/or light switch
mounted on the face of the hood.

GREASE EXTRACTION (XG EXTRACTORS)

The Gaylord Industries Patent Pending XG Extractor Cartridge
is designed to deliver the absolute optimum in collection ef­ciency at the lowest possible pressure drop. The units are ETL
listed to UL 1046 standard, and are also recognized as part of
an XG Ventilator. They are constructed of corrosion resistant
stainless steel and feature a GX style handle for easy removal
from the ventilator to which they are mounted. Another great
feature of the XG lter is that it can be opened up and turned
back on itself for easy and efcient dishwasher cleaning. The
opening of the lter is accomplished by a top mounted, dual
hinge and a set of snap buttons at the bottom to secure the
lter in position. The benet to such a design ensures that
restaurant employee’s will always have access to the inside of
the extractors for easy cleaning, and will not mistakenly install
the units in the opened, or disassemble position.

CLEANING

At the end of the cooking day, or at periodic intervals, cartridges
are removed and washed either in a dishwasher or soaked in
a deep well sink, scrubbed and rinsed.

OPERATION

FIRE PROTECTION

NFPA #96 requires the use of surface, duct and plenum pro-
tection on all hoods.

These systems are designed to detect and extinguish res on
the cooking surface, within the plenum and at the duct collar.
Refer to the re extinguishing system owner’s manual for opera-
tion and maintenance instructions of these systems.

The “XG-GFBD” hood is equipped with an exhaust duct re
damper. In the event of a re, should the thermostat reach its
activation point of 325° F, the damper would close preventing
the ames from entering the ductwork and spreading to other
parts of the building. The re is contained in the kitchen area
where it can be properly fought.

The hood may be supplied without a re damper which is
designated by the sufx “ND” in the model number or with a
Balancing Only damper denoted with a “GBD” in the model
number. Refer to the nameplate on the hood for the exact
model number. (See Figure 7, page 5).
