All kettles are tilting and counter top mounted in fixed positions on legs. CAPACITIES All models are suffixed with either -6, -10, 12 or -20 to indicated the capacity of that kettle in US gallons. FUNCTIONING MODE Direct connected steam jacketed kettles consist of a stainless steel bowl and a stainless steel jacket which envelopes two thirds of the lower surface of the bowl thus forming a sealed pressure vessel (chamber) into which steam is introduced by means of a manual control valve. The kettle bowl is the container for the food product which ideally should be of a liquid or semi- liquid consistency to achieve complete contact with the bowl surface and thus fully absorb the heat transmitted through that surface. The temperatures required for the cooking process to function adequately must be greater than the boiling point of the liquid food product, viz. water. Further, the greater the steam pressure used, the higher the temperature and consequently the quicker the cooking process. For example, steam pressurized at 30 p.s.i. attains a temperature of 274 degrees Fahrenheit (135 degrees Celsius). In the initial stages of the cooking process when the steam comes in contact with the cold kettle bowl surface it condenses and forms considerable amounts of water. A thermostatic steam trap should be plumbed to the exit end of the kettle jacket. This trap is a mechanical device that closes on high temperatures and opens when the temperature drops thus allowing the water formed from condensate to exhaust but retain steam under pressure. 3.0 INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS 1. These kettles must be installed on a suitable table or counter top. 2. On counter top make 7/8" holes at 13 - 3/4" centers for kettle legs on Models KTT-6DS, KTT-10DS, KTT-12DS and 12, 23-1/2" centers on Model KTT-20DS. Provide sufficient space from rear wall to allow for tilting of kettle. 3. From bottom of stanchions remove mounting lockouts and washers. Apply Silastic to flared edge of stanchions. Insert threaded portion of stanchions through holes. Replace washers and locknuts and tighten. Wipe off excess sealant. 4. Install a safety relief valve in the steam line set at the maximum operating pressure of the kettle. Note that one valve will handle a series of kettles. 5. Connect steam supply line (." pipe size) to steam inlet fitting on right stanchion. 6. Install a steam control valve in steam supply line, preferably near the kettle for ease of operation. 7. A pressure reducing valve will be required if the steam supply pressure is greater than the maximum kettle working pressure. 8. If large amounts of water are in the steam line it will be...
