SRTG: Gas Floor Model Rethermalizer INSTALLATION 1.6. ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS It is advised that this power supply be plugged into a wall receptacle that is controlled by the ventilation control. This will prevent the appliance from being operated without the ventilator on. If your appliance requires an electrical connection, the power requirements are listed below. Input Voltage Current per unit North America International 120 VAC, 50/60 Hz 220, 230 or 240 VAC 50/60 Hz 1.0 Amp 0.
INSTALLATION WARNING If your appliance is uses line current, it is equipped with an oil proof, electrical supply cord with a three-prong safety plug. This is to protect operators from electrical shock hazard in the event of an equipment malfunction. DO NOT cut or remove the grounding (third) prong from this plug; it should be plugged into a properly grounded three-prong receptacle. 1.7. VENTILATION AND FIRE SAFETY SYSTEMS Your new appliance must have proper ventilation to function safely and properly.
SRTG: Gas Floor Model Rethermalizer INSTALLATION 1.8. INSPECTION Before you begin filling and adjusting the appliance, perform the following visual checks: After the appliance is in its permanent location, check the levelness. Any additional leveling that is necessary can be performed as previously described. Ensure that the probe, and high temperature limit is in place and secure. Check the high limit bulb mounting screws to ensure that they are tight.
INSTALLATION 1.9. INITIAL ADJUSTMENTS After your appliance has been properly installed as described in the installation section of this manual, it will need to be adjusted to ensure that it will perform as designed. A qualified person must perform these adjustments. To perform these adjustments the following tools will be needed: • Manometer • Digital Thermometer (Temperature Probe) • DC Microammeter 1.9.1. FILLING THE APPLIANCE Refer to the following procedure to fill the cook tank prior to operation. 1.
INSTALLATION SRTG: Gas Floor Model Rethermalizer 1.9.3. PILOT FLAME ADJUSTMENT Perform this procedure with the pilot lit. Note: This procedure requires the use of a DC microammeter. 1. Connect the DC microammeter between the flame sensor terminal and the flame sensor lead. Observe proper polarity: if the meter needle goes below 0, reverse the leads. The current reading must be 1.0 A or greater, (0.15 A or greater for CE units). 2.
INSTALLATION 1.9.4. MAIN BURNER SYSTEM ADJUSTMENT For the main burners to operate the gas supply valve must be open and the thermostat must be turned on. The main power switch must be on. The main burners receive gas from the main gas supply through the thermostatically controlled valve. When the water temperature drops below the preset temperature the gas control valve opens. The main burners must be adjusted to deliver optimum flame. Refer to the following procedure to adjust the main burners. 1.
SRTG: Gas Floor Model Rethermalizer INSTALLATION CAUTION Be careful not to disturb the probe and high temperature limit during operation and cleaning of this appliance. 1.10. INITIAL CLEANING When your appliance is shipped, many of its parts are covered with a thin coat of oil for protection. Before the appliance is ready for cooking it must be cleaned. This will remove the oil coating and any foreign matter that may have accumulated during storage and shipment.
