Quantity

 Model 6G-SB (6 pan convection steamer on a 24” gas boiler base)
 Model 10G-SB (10 pan convection steamer on a 24” gas boiler base)

CONSTRUCTION

 Stainless steel construction
 Stainless steel doors with strong continuous hinge and are field

reversible for left or right swing

 Insulated doors have a one piece, replaceable seal
 Easy open handle and latch provide positive lock and seal when the door

is pushed or slammed shut

 Hidden magnetic door switch cuts power to blower and steam flow to that

cavity, when the door is opened

 Pan support racks shall be polished stainless steel and removable for

easy cleaning

 Wide drip sink with condensate drain is positioned under cavity doors
 Gas heated, 24” wide cabinet base shall have stainless steel frame with

all stainless steel top deck, hinged front access panel and removable
side and rear panels

 Cabinet-mounted boiler is ASME Code-constructed and National Board

registered for operation up to 15 PSI.

 Front and rear legs shall have adjustable bullet feet

OPERATION

 Steamer cavity controls are mounted on the front panel for easy access
 Separate ON-OFF/60 minute timer control with constant steam setting,

for each steamer cavity.

 Gas boiler has a power-ON switch, RESET light, start switch, low water

sensor, pop safety valve, water level sight glass and outside cabinet
mounted pressure gauge.

 Unit will shut off if water level is low or unit builds too much pressure
 When power switch is turned “off”, the boiler automatically drains to

reduce sediment build-up, after the water has cooled to 170°F.

 Each steamer cavity shall have a powerful side mounted blower, which

increases steam velocity and provides efficient steam distribution
throughout cavity and between loaded pans.

 Twin gas-heated, cabinet-mounted pressure boiler to provide atmospher-

ic steam to each chamber at a temperature of approximately 212º (F).

 Boiler delivers approximately 20,000 BTU/hr input per 2-1/2” deep steam

pan capacity.

 Electronic ignition

WATER SUPPLY:

Water quality is a major factor affecting the performance of your steamer. If you
are unsure of water quality, consult a local water treatment specialist and have
the water analyzed. Your water supply must be within these general guidelines:

Total dissolved solids: Less than 30 PPM Total alkalinity: Less than 20 PPM
Silica: Less than 13 PPM Chlorine: Less than 1.5 PPM
pH Factor: 7.0 - 9.0

Water which fails to meet these standards should be treated by installation of a
water conditioner. Failure or malfunction of this steamer due to poor water quali­ty is not covered under warranty.

WATER & DRAIN CONNECTIONS:

Drain 1-1/4” NPT free venting drain
Cold Water 1/2” NPT cold water supply line
Appliance is to be installed with backflow protection in accordance with Federal,

State or Local codes.

MAXIMUM INPUT:

200,000 BTU/hr

GAS SUPPLY:

1/2” NPT pipe or approved equivalent.

Minimum Inlet Pressure:

Natural 3.5" W.C. static to unit
Propane 10.0" W.C. static to unit

POWER SUPPLY:

115 volt, single phase, 60 cycle 15 AMP electric service, 4
