Gas Pressure Regulator
The gas pressure regulator supplied with this cooktop must be used. The inlet pressure to the regulator should be as follows for proper operation:
Natural Gas:
Minimum pressure: 5" (12.7 cm) WCP Maximum pressure: 14" (35.6 cm) WCP
Propane Gas:
Minimum pressure: 10" (25.4 cm) WCP Maximum pressure: 14" (35.6 cm) WCP
Contact local gas supplier if you are not sure about the inlet pressure.
Burner Input Rating — Altitude
Input ratings shown on the model/serial/rating plate are for elevations up to 2,000 ft (609.6 m).
For elevations above 2,000 ft (609.6 m), ratings need to be reduced at a rate of 4% for each 1,000 ft (304.8 m) above sea level (not applicable for Canada).
Gas Supply Pressure Testing
Gas supply pressure for testing regulator must be at least 1" (2.5 cm) water column pressure above the manifold pressure shown on the model/serial/rating plate.
Line pressure testing above 1/2 psi (3.5 kPa) gauge (14" [35.6 cm] WCP)
The cooktop and its individual shut-off valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of 1/2 psi (3.5 kPa).
Line pressure testing at 1/2 psi (3.5 kPa) gauge (14" [35.6 cm] WCP) or lower
The cooktop must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shut-off valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psi (3.5 kPa).
