Equipment Description
The KTT-DS are tilting, table-top kettles with direct steam-heated jackets. The onepiece stainless steel body on each includes a butterfly shaped pouring lip. The kettles
have a 180 emery grit interior finish and a bright semi-deluxe exterior finish.
Every unit requires a remote steam source. The steam supply is controlled by an inlet
valve, and enters the jacket through one support and rotary joint. Condensate leaves
the jacket through the other rotary joint and support. Standard units are ASME shop
inspected, stamped, and registered with the National Board. These kettles operate
efficiently at pressures above five PSI. A safety valve, strainer, steam trap, and check
valve are all required for installation, and may be ordered as optional equipment.
Optional features and equipment include:
• Higher maximum pressure • Bracket inserts
• Lift-off covers • Kettle brush kit
• Open leg mounting table mounting • Steam trap assembly
The 5/6DS-KTT kettle has a jacket rated for working pressures up to 55 PSI. The
kettle body incorporates a triple reinforced rim. Two tubular steel supports support the
swivel on which the kettle tilts. A leg projects from the bottom of the kettle.
