Connecting To The Gas Supply - Lotus SC423 Instrucciones Para El Uso Y Mantenimiento

The appliance must be connected to the network by means of a standardized plug on a 16
A socket; the plug socket must be in a clearly visible position and must be easily
accessible so that it can be disconnected from the power supply.
If a fixed installation is used, as previously said, the cable must be connected to a circuit
breaker that is appropriate to the load (16A) and the minimum distance between the
contacts must be ≥ than 3 mm.; remember that the yellow-green conductor (earth
conductor) must never be disconnected.

CONNECTING TO THE GAS SUPPLY

Prior to connecting the unit to the gas network, check the data plate to see if the unit has
been set and tested for the type of gas supplied.
Connect the appliance to the gas distribution network using metal pipes with a suitable
diameter; install a homologated shut-off cock between the appliance and the distribution
network. The pipe and the appliance must be connected by means of a three-piece joint to
enable them to be dismantled more easily. If flexible pipes are used they must be made of
stainless steel according to the standards in force. The seal on the joint threads must be
provided by materials that their manufacturer has declared to be suitable also for LPG gas.
When installing the appliance, all the regulations in force must be observed, such as:
- UNI-CIG 8723 safety standard, Act n.46 of the 5th of March 1990 and circular n.68
- Regional and/or local regulations, such as building codes
- Directives and regulations of the electricity board
- Accident prevention regulations in force
- Fire prevention regulations
- Applicable I.E.C. regulations
CONNECTING TO THE WATER SUPPLY - WATER INLET
Ovens with steam system must be connected to the drinkable water supply via the
solenoid valve located on the rear part of the appliance, always interposing a stopcock
with a pressure reducer set at 1.5 bar and with a cartridge filter. The oven must always be
connected to a cold water supply that is transformed into steam inside the heated oven.
The supplied water must be drinkable water and must meet the following conditions:
-
-
A water softener should always be installed upstream of the appliance in order to maintain
the hardness of the water within the above values. If the oven is operated at higher levels
of hardness scale will form on the walls of the cooking chamber.
Any request for technical assistance to repair damage caused by scale are not
covered by the warranty.
Regulations in some countries require a check valve to be fitted at the mains supply inlet.
CONNECTING TO WATER SUPPLY – WATER DRAINAGE
The ovens have a water drain pipe located at the back of the appliance. The connection to
the water supply must be made directly to the end of the stainless steel drainage pipe.
The drainage system must consist of stiff pipes and withstand temperatures above 100 °C.
If pipes are supplied with the appliance they must be used.
temperature between 15º and 25º C
total hardness comprised between 4º and 8º French degrees.
