STRATOSTEAM COUNTERTOP STEAMER

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS

One fused electrical connection is required to the terminal board of each steamer. All steamers are shipped per customer order, three phase or single phase. (A kit is available for field conversion to three phase or single phase.) The fused connection must be wired for the required voltage and maximum amperage as listed in the chart below:

GAS PRESSURE REQUIREMENTS

OPERATING

Natural Gas 4" W.C.

Propane Gas 10" W.C.

INCOMING

Natural Gas 7" W.C. Minimum

Propane Gas 11" W.C.

WATER REQUIREMENTS

To meet warranty requirements, the water supply must be as follows:

Connection

1/4" compression, cold water

 

 

 

Pressure

30 to 60 PSI

 

 

Total Dissolved Solids (TDS)

60 PPM or less

 

 

Hardness

2 grains (35 PPM) or less

pH

7.0 to 7.5

Maximum Fill Capacity

0.87 gallons

Typical usage is 0.46 gallons per minute at 45 PSI.

In order to minimize service problems and to meet the warranty requirements, a water treatment system (softener) is recommended when water quality does not meet the limits stated above.

DRAIN REQUIREMENTS

The drain outlet has a 1" NPT female connector. Do NOT directly connect the drain to a plumbing system unless you also install an “open funnel” downstream of this connection (see Figure 7 on page 17). There must be no back-flow or back-pressure into the drain connection!
