Vulcan-Hart VGL60 Leveling The Appliance, Installation Codes And Standards, Ventilation Hood

LEVELING THE APPLIANCE

To level the kettle, use a spirit level in all directions on the top of the kettle with the lid up.

Units with legs — adjust the bottom foot in each leg to overcome an uneven floor.

INSTALLATION CODES AND STANDARDS

The steam kettle must be installed in the United States in accordance with: 1) State and local codes;

2)National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI-Z223.1, latest edition, available from American Gas Association, 1515 Wilson Boulevard, Arlington, VA 22209; and 3) National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70, latest edition, and with NFPA Standard #96, Vapor Removal from Cooking Equipment, latest edition, available from the National Fire Protection Association, Batterymarch Park, Quincy, MA 02269.

VENTILATION HOOD

The steam kettle must be installed under a suitable ventilation hood.

PRESSURE RELIEF VALVE

The pressure relief valve is located at the right rear of the unit. This area should be kept clear and should not be in an area where operators will normally stand. The elbow on the relief valve should be turned toward the floor. A maximum 3 foot, 3/4" diameter pipe may be used to extend to the floor, but must not be piped directly to a drain — it must vent to the atmosphere.

PRESSURE GAUGE

Check the pressure gauge on the front panel before operating. If the pressure gauge does not indicate 20 to 30 inches of mercury column vacuum, contact your authorized Vulcan-authorized servicer to re- establish the vacuum.

WATER CONNECTION

Steam kettles equipped with an optional water fill valve should be connected to the water supply line (minimum 1⁄4") at the 1⁄4" NPT internal threaded fitting on the valve. Units with dual (hot and cold) valves must have the hot water line connected to the side with the hot water valve (red) and cold water line to the cold water valve (blue). Plastic or rubber hose is not recommended as it may melt against the hot kettle side.
