SPECIFICATIONS

NOTICE

Local codes regarding installation vary greatly from one area to another. The National Fire Protection Association, Inc. states in its NFPA 96 latest edition that local codes are the “authority having jurisdiction” when it comes to installation requirements for equipment. Therefore, installations should comply with all local codes.

Southbend reserves the right to change specifications and product design without notice. Such revisions do not entitle the buyer to corresponding changes, additions, or replacements for previously purchased equipment.

This product is intended for commercial use only, not for household use.

The installation must conform with local codes, or in the absence of local codes, with the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1, Natural Gas Installation Code, CAN/CGA-B149.1, or the Propane Installation Code CAN/CGA-B149.2, as applicable, including:

1.The appliance and its individual shutoff 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 (3.45 kPa).

2.The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shutoff valve ` during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psi (3.45 kPa).

CLEARANCES

WARNING

MINIMUM CLEARANCES FROM COMBUSTIBLE CONSTRUCTION

Minimum clearance from combustible surfaces is 6” on the sides and back. Minimum clearance from non-combustible surfaces is 0” on the sides and back.

Adequate clearance must be provided in the aisle in front of the broiler to permit operation (including pulling out of broiler racks and removal of the drippings drawers), as well as for servicing. No additional clearance is required for servicing as the broiler is serviceable from the front.

The high-temperature flue products flow out through the top of the broiler. Installation under a vented hood is recommended.

Units have 6” legs or casters, and may be installed on combustible floors.

VENTILATION

WARNING

Improper ventilation can result in personal injury or death. Ventilation which fails to properly remove flue products can cause headaches, drowsiness, nausea, or could result in death.

All units must be installed in such a manner that the flow of combustion and ventilation air is not obstructed. Provisions for adequate air supply must be provided. Do not obstruct the front of the unit at the bottom where the air filter is located or below the oven door as combustion air enters at these locations.

OWNER’S MANUAL 1199797 REV 0 (6/14)

PAGE 5 OF 40

SPECIFICATIONS

RADIANT BROILER

NOTICE

Proper ventilation is the owner’s responsibility. Any problem due to improper ventilation will not be covered by the warranty.

Be sure to inspect and clean the ventilation system according to the ventilation equipment manufacturer’s instructions.

If a ventilation canopy is used, it is recommended that the canopy extend 152.4 mm (6”), past the appliance and that the bottom edge be located 1981 mm (6’6”) from the floor. Filters should be installed at an angle of 45° or more from the horizontal. This position prevents dripping grease and facilitates collecting the run-off grease in a drip pan, unusually installed with a filter.

A strong exhaust fan tends to create a vacuum in the room and may interfere with burner performance or may extinguish pilot flames. Fresh air openings approximately equal to the fan area will relieve such a vacuum. The exhaust fan should be installed at least 609.6 mm (24”), above the vent opening at the top of the unit.

NOTICE

Due to the variety of problems encountered by outside weather conditions, venting by canopies or wall fans is preferred over any type of direct venting.

If the unit is connected directly to an outside flue, a CSA design certified down draft diverter must be installed.

In case of unsatisfactory performance on any appliance, check the appliance with the exhaust fan turned OFF. Do this only long enough to check whether doing so corrects any problems with equipment performance. Then turn the exhaust fan back on and let it run to remove any exhaust that may have accumulated during the test.

FREE STANDING BROILERS

GAS SUPPLY

The broiler is design-certified for operation on natural or propane gases. The broiler is shipped configured and adjusted for the type of gas specified by the purchaser, which is indicated on the serial plate (see Figure 1). Connect the broiler ONLY to the type of gas for which it is configured and adjusted.

The broiler has a 3/4” rear gas connection with a male NPT connector and an internal shut-off valve. Minimum supply pressure is 7” W.C. for natural gas, 11” W.C. for propane. The broiler has an internal pressure regulator that is set for 4”

W.C. pressure for natural gas or 10” W.C. pressure for propane gas. If using a flexible-hose gas connection, the inside diameter of the hose must not be smaller than the connector on the broiler, and must comply with ANSI Z21.69 (or CSA 6.16). Provide an adequate means of restraint to prevent undue strain on the gas connection.

If applicable, the vent line from the gas appliance pressure regulator shall be installed to the outdoors in accordance with local codes, or in the absence of local codes, with the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54 or the Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code CSA B149.1, as applicable.

An adequate gas supply is imperative. Undersized or low pressure lines will restrict the volume of gas required for satisfactory performance. Fluctuations of more than 25% on natural gas or 10% on propane gas will create problems and affect burner operating characteristics. A 1/8” pressure tap is located adjacent to the pressure regulator to measure the pressure. The supply line to the broiler should have an inside diameter no smaller than 3/4”.
