11、2.4MPILOT GAS VENTING TESTThe maximum gas-air ratio anywhere within adraft hood shall not exceed 75 percent of the lowerflammable limit at any time following simulatedappliance pilot flame outage when the draft hood istested as specified in the following Method of Test.Method of TestThe draft hood s
12、hall be attached to the test appliancein accordance with the manufacturers instructions. A drafthood for installation on appliances for use with natural,manufactured and mixed gases only shall be tested withthe test appliance using test Gas A. A draft hood forinstallation on appliances for use with
13、natural,manufactured, and liquefied petroleum gases mixed and LPgas-air mixtures shall be tested with the test applianceusing both test Gases A and E. Two tests shall beconducted on the draft hood, one under each of thefollowing test conditions:Test Condition 1The test appliance at room temperature.
14、Test Condition 2The test appliance adjusted in accordance with TestCondition A of 2.5.Under each test condition pilot gas shall be permittedto flow at the following rates:a. 2,000 Btu per hour (586 W) for draft hoodshaving nominal outlet diameters of 8 inches orless.b. 5,000 Btu per hour (1 465 W) f
15、or draft hoodshaving nominal outlet diameters greater than8iinches.The gas-air ratio within the draft hood shall bemonitored until equilibrium conditions are attained. Themonitoring locations within the draft hood shall be at thediscretion of the testing agency. At no time during the testshall the g
