GAS PIPING
Aproperlysizedgas supplysystemisessentialfor
maximum oven performance. Piping should be
sized to provide a supply of gas sufficient to meet
themaximumdemandofallappliancesontheline
without loss of pressure at the equipment.
Example:
NOTE: BTU values in the following example are
for natural gas.
You purchase a Zephaire-G convection oven to
add to your existing cook line.
1. AddtheBTUratingofyourcurrentappliances.
Pitco Fryer 120,000 BTU
6 Burner Range 60,000 BTU
Deck Oven 50,000 BTU
Total 230,000 BTU
2. Add the BTU rating of the new oven to the to-
tal.
Previous Total 230,000 BT U
Zephaire-G 60,000 BTU
New Total 290,000 BTU
3. Measure the distance from the gas meter to
the cook line. Thisis the pipe length.Let’ssay
the pipe length is 40’ (12.2 m) and the pipe
size is 1” (2.54 cm).
4. Usethe appropriatetable to determine the to -
tal capacity of your current gas piping.
The t otal capacity for this example is 320,000
BTU. Since the total required gas pressure,
290,000 BTU is less than 320,000 BTU, the
current gas piping will not have to be in-
creased.
NOTE: TheBTU capacities given inthe tables are
for s traight pipe lengths only. Any elbows
orotherfittings willdecreasepipecapaci-
ties. Contact your local gas supplier if you
have any questions.
