SPECIFICATIONS

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

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).

! WARNING

There must be adequate clearance between units and combustible construction. Clearance must also be provided for servicing and for operation.

Minimum Clearances for Ranges Built Before April 9, 2001 (25,900 BTU Open Top Burners):

Standard Oven Convection Oven Double Oven Base Sides 6" 8" 8" Back 6" 8" 6" Floor 0" 0" 0"

Minimum Clearances for Ranges Built After April 8, 2001 (32,000 BTU Open Top Burners):

Standard Oven Convection Oven Double Oven Base Sides 10" 10" 10" Back 10" 10" 10" Floor 0" 0" 0"

Units are suitable for installation on combustible floors. Adequate clearance must be provided in the aisle and at the side and rear to allow the door to open

sufficiently to permit the removal of the racks and for serviceability. On units with the convection-type oven, a minimum of 2 inches must be allowed behind the motor and

the rear non-combustible enclosure. Care must be taken to provide adequate air circulation to prevent the motor from overheating. No additional clearance from the sides and back is required for service as the units are serviceable from the front.

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 are not obstructed. Provisions for adequate air supply must be provided. Do not obstruct the front of the unit at the top by the control panel, or the bottom just below the oven compartment, as combustion air enters through these areas.

NOTICE

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

All units must be installed in such a manner that the flow of combustion and ventilation air are not obstructed. Provisions for an adequate air supply must be provided. Do not obstruct the front or rear of the unit, as combustion air enters through this area. Be sure to inspect and clean the ventilation system according to the ventilation equipment manufacturer’s instructions.

SPECIFICATIONS

Ranges with solid tops, such as griddles or hot tops, must always have venting for their flue products at the rear of their burner compartments provided by the hollow area inside a shelf 21" high or a backsplash 17" high. Lack of sufficient venting for the burners in these compartments will cause poor burner and pilot operating characteristics, resulting in inefficient performance. Such conditions also cause high ambient temperatures at the manifold area and create valve and thermostat problems.

Canopies are set over ranges, ovens, etc., for ventilation purposes. It is recommended that a canopy extend 6" past the appliance and the bottom edge be located 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 2" above the vent opening at the top of the unit. If the unit is connected directly to an outside flue, a CSA design certified down draft diverter must be installed

at the flue outlet of the oven and connected to the flue. In case of unsatisfactory performance on any appliance, check the appliance with the exhaust fan in the

“OFF” position. Do this only long enough to check equipment performance. Then turn hood back on and let it run to remove any exhaust that may have accumulated during the test.

GAS SUPPLY

The serial plate is located in the compartment below the oven on the right side (left oven on double units). It indicates the type of gas the unit is equipped to burn. All Southbend equipment is adjusted at the factory. Check type of gas on serial plate.

These models are design-certified for operation on natural or propane gases. The unit is shipped configured for the type of gas specified by the purchaser. A kit for conversion to a different type of gas may be purchased from Southbend (see page 31 for conversion instructions).

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, Natural Gas Installation Code, CAN/CGA-B149.1, or the Propane Installation Code CAN/CGA- B149.2, as applicable.

OPERATOR’S MANUAL 1182299 REV 3 (05/05) DRAFT PAGE 9 OF 64

SPECIFICATIONS MODEL 400 RESTAURANT RANGES

This appliance should be connected ONLY to the type of gas for which it is equipped. 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 on the manifold to measure the manifold pressure.

SPECIFICATIONS

An adequate gas supply line to the unit should be no smaller than the inside diameter of the pipe from the unit to which it is connected.

Purge the supply line to clean out dust, dirt, or other foreign matter before connecting the line to the unit. All pipe joints and connections must be tested thoroughly for gas leaks. Use only soapy water for testing on

all gases. NEVER use an open flame to check for gas leaks. All connections must be checked for leaks after the unit has been put into operation. Test pressure should not exceed 14" W.C.

ELECTRICITY SUPPLY

Units with a convection oven require connection to a supply of electricity. The appliance, when installed, must be electrically grounded in accordance with local codes, or in the absence of local codes, with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, or the Canadian Electrical Code, CSA C22.2, as applicable. An electrical diagram is located on the rear of the range, near the motor.

Usually the range is furnished with one or two power cords (one for each oven), each with a standard 115V 60Hz single-phase prong plug. Total maximum amps for 115V units is 12.5.

The range can be ordered to operate on 208V 60Hz 1-phase or 3-phase current, in which case the electric power supply must be wired to one or two junction boxes (one for each oven), each with a terminal block on the rear of the range. Total maximum amps for 208V units is 8.1.

INSTALLATION

NOTICE

These installation procedures must be followed by qualified personnel or warranty will be void. 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.

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).

Step 1: Unpacking

IMMEDIATELY INSPECT FOR SHIPPING DAMAGE

INSTALLATION

All containers should be examined for damage before and during unloading. The freight carrier has assumed responsibility for its safe transit and delivery. If damaged equipment is received, either apparent or concealed, a claim must be made with the delivering carrier.

Apparent damage or loss must be noted on the freight bill at the time of delivery. The freight bill must then be signed by the carrier representative (Driver). If the bill is not signed, the carrier may refuse the claim. The carrier can supply the necessary forms.

A request for inspection must be made to the carrier within 15 days if there is concealed damage or loss that is not apparent until after the equipment is uncrated. The carrier should arrange an inspection. Be certain to hold all contents plus all packing material.

1. Cut banding straps and remove corrugated box from range.

2. Cut banding strap holding range to wooden skid.

3. Lift the flue riser off the front of the skid and set it aside.

Step 4: Connect Electricity (for Models with Convection Ovens)

Wiring diagrams are located on the rear of the range. Be sure that the input voltage and phase match the requirements shown on the serial plate.

Ranges ordered with a 115V, 60Hz, single-phase electrical rating are factory-supplied with one or two threewire cords (one for each oven), each with a three-prong plug that fits any standard three-prong grounded receptacle. Single-oven units require a 15 ampere supply, while double-oven units require a 20 ampere supply.

Ranges ordered with a 208/236V, 60Hz, single- or three-phase electrical rating are factory-equipped with one or two two-pole terminal blocks (one for each oven), located behind cover plate(s) located on the rear of the unit. To connect the supply wires, remove the appropriate cover plate. Route the supply wires and the

INSTALLATION

grounding wire through the strain relief fitting to the terminal block. Insert the supply wires, one each, into the two poles of the terminal block and tighten the screws. Insert the ground wire into the grounding lug and tighten the screw. Re-attach the cover plate.

Three phase units are wired as above, using only two supply wires. The third wire is not used and must be properly terminated.

All units are shipped wired as specified by factory order. Conversion between single-phase and three-phase can be accomplished by referring to phase loading and line amperes chart on wiring diagram for wire size and ampere requirements.

Step 5: Connect Gas Supply

If this equipment is being installed at over 2,000 feet altitude and that information was not specified when ordered, contact the appropriate authorized Southbend Service Representative or the Southbend Service Department. Failure to install with proper orifice sizing will result in poor performance and may void the warranty.

The Serial Plate is located in the compartment below the oven on the right side (on double units - left oven). It indicates the type of gas the unit is equipped to burn. All Southbend equipment is adjusted at the factory. Check type of gas on serial plate.

These models are design-certified for operation on natural or propane gases. The unit is shipped configured for the type of gas specified by the purchaser. A kit for conversion to a different type of gas may be purchased from Southbend (see page 31 for conversion instructions).

This appliance should be connected ONLY to the type of gas for which it is equipped. 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 on the manifold to measure the manifold pressure.

An adequate gas supply line to the unit should be no smaller than the I.D. of the pipe from the unit to which it is connected.

Purge the supply line to clean out dust, dirt, or other foreign matter before connecting the line to the unit.

! CAUTION

ALL PIPE JOINTS AND CONNECTIONS MUST BE TESTED THOROUGHLY FOR GAS LEAKS. USE ONLY SOAPY WATER FOR TESTING ON ALL GASES. NEVER USE AN OPEN FLAME TO CHECK FOR GAS LEAKS. ALL CONNECTIONS MUST BE CHECKED FOR LEAKS AFTER THE UNIT HAS BEEN PUT INTO OPERATION. TEST PRESSURE SHOULD NOT EXCEED 14" W.C.

MODEL 400 RESTAURANT RANGES INSTALLATION

Step 6: Check the Installation

1. Check that all screws and bolts are tightened.

2. Move the range into the position at which it will be operated.

3. Check that the range is level. If not, adjust the legs.

4. Check that the appropriate clearances are satisfied (see page 4).

Step 7: Adjust Air Shutters and Pilot Heights

All units are adjusted at the factory. However, burner air shutters and pilot heights should be checked at installation and adjusted if necessary. On new installations, start with the top burner of the unit(s) furthest from the gas input to the manifold. This will purge the system of air. Turn main gas supply “ON”.

Step 8: Condition Griddle Surfaces

New griddles should be carefully tempered and cared for in order to avoid possible damage. To break in a new griddle, first wipe it clean. Next, light all the griddle burners and turn them to low for one hour. Then gradually bring each griddle up to frying temperature. Next, spread three or four ounces of beef suet, or as a substitute, baking soda, to season it. Never allow water on a hot griddle and never wash it with soap and water.
