STEAM
All steam plumbing to and from the kettle and steam boiler should be thoroughly cleaned and inspected for dirt and debris before final connection to the kettle are made.
Check the rating plate for the maximum steam pressure that your kettle is rated for. If the steam supply pressure exceeds the rated pressure, a pressure reducing valve is required. The steam inlet is at the right side of the kettle, as seen from the front.
POTABLE WATER
The water faucet (optional) with swing spout, requires 1/2 inch O.D. copper tube plumbing for hot or cold water supplies to the faucet (SPK - cold water connection only, DPK - hot and cold water connection).
FINAL INSTALLATION CHECK
1.Partially fill the kettle with water.
2.Slowly turn the steam supply valve's knob to the open position.
CONDENSATE
A steam condensate trap must be plumbed to a drain, using minimum 1/2" NPT plumbing. The condensate line is limited to a maximum rise of 10 feet in order for the steam pressure to adequately force the condensate through the plumbing. Any higher rise requires a pump.
If the steam boiler to which this kettle is installed has a condensate return (closed loop system), a 1/2" steam strainer, a 1/2" steam trap, and a 1/2" check valve must be installed on the output (condensate) side of the kettle.
FOR POWER TILT UNITS ONLY
NOTE: Ensure the electrical supply matches the kettle's requirements as stated on the rating label.
This kettle is built to comply with CE standards. Many local codes exist, and it is the responsibility of the owner and installer to comply with these codes.
NOTE: Maximum voltage for LVD is 440 volts for CE marked appliances.
3.Release the safety valve, ensuring that the steam escapes freely. Stay clear of steam exhaust when releasing the safety valve.
4.Observe that the water in the kettle comes to a boil.
5.Close the steam supply valve.
6.Drain off the water in the kettle.
CLEANING
After installation the kettle must be thoroughly cleaned and sanitized prior to cooking. See CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS for detailed information and suggested cleaners.
