The Blodgett Combi-Oven/Steamer
The Blodgett Combi-Oven/Steamer offers a completely
new method of cooking. With the Oven/Steamer you have
the choice of two cooking processes: Steam and Hot Air,
either...
• Separately
• Combined, or
• In Sequence
And for easy operation you can choose from three modes:
There are four additional specialized modes to help you
make the most of your time:
Retherm - for perfect reheating
Proong - Proof and bake all in the same oven
Preheat - in this mode the oven will preheat to 575ºF
(300ºC) for 15 minutes. The oven will then automatically
lower to 480ºF (249ºC) to protect the advanced electronic components.
Cool Down - allows the oven cavity to cool down rapidly
with the door opened
You can also use two or three functions in se-
quence during one cooking process. We call this:
• combi-steaming
• combi-roasting
• combi-baking
The combination of circulating hot air and steam in the
space saving, high performance Combi-Oven/Steamer
leads to improvements in the following areas:
• increased productivity in the kitchen
• a reduction in capital expenditures for multiple equipment replacement
• a wider range of menu choices
• a simplied cleaning process
The work process is simplied since products are prepared on or in steam table pans and trays. Food can be
cooked, stored, and transported with the same pans.
Small amounts of product can be processed efciently;
pre-cooked and convenience foods can be reheated within minutes. Many frozen foods can be processed with-
out pre-thawing. This exibility in preparation reduces the
need for kettles and steam tables since there is no need
for large amounts of food to be kept warm for long periods
of time.
Today the improvement of food quality is more important
than ever. Vegetables are cooked in the Blodgett CombiOven/Steamer without water at the optimal temperature
of just under 212ºF (100ºC), maintaining valuable vitamins, minerals, nutrients and trace elements. Cooking
meat in the Combi results in less shrinkage and a rmer,
juicier product. The Blodgett Combi-Oven/Steamer is being used more and more for baking. Steam and Hot Air
modes make it a general purpose baking appliance.

ABOUT THE OVEN/STEAMER
Blodgett Combis are quality produced using high-grade
stainless steel with rst class workmanship.
The multiple speed fan, which is guarded against acci-
dental nger contact, is driven by a quiet and powerful
motor. The condenser draws out excess steam from the
appliance. Condensation and waste water, which result
during steaming and cleaning, are continuously drained.
The use of high quality insulation impedes excessive heat
radiation and saves energy.
Fresh steam enters the oven cavity without pressure and
circulates at high speed. This process enables quick and
gentle cooking and ensures high quality food while pro-

To facilitate cleaning and servicing, the oven should be
connected with an approved exible 3/4” hose. Permanent installations should be tted with a stop-tap and a
non-return valve.
Before connecting the oven to water, ush the tubes
thoroughly. Connect the oven.
DRAIN CONNECTION
Blodgett ovens are equipped with a drain system that removes surplus water from the oven chamber. This may
be condensed water from the products, or it may occur
when the oven chamber is cooled down with cold water,
or when the oven chamber is cleaned.
WARNING!!
Connection must be carried out by an authorised plumber, to an open or closed drain.
The drain must never end directly beneath the
oven.
The drain must be of stainless steel or an equally
temperature-resistant material, have a fall of at least 3°
or 5%. See page 4 for drain diameter.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
NOTE: Electrical connections must be performed by a
qualied installer only.
Before making any electrical connections to these appli-
ances, check that the power supply is adequate for the
voltage, amperage, and phase requirements stated on
the rating name plate mounted on the appliance.
1. The rating plate is located on the right side of the
oven.
An approved plug outlet or a safety cutout must be located close to the oven so that the oven can be disconnected
during installation and repair. The safety cutout must be
able to cut off all poles with a total distance of break of at
least 3 mm.
All appliances must be installed in accordance with Local
or National Electrical codes.
The wiring diagram is located in the motor compartment.
NOTE: Disconnect the power supply to the appliance
before servicing.
WARNING!!
Improper installation may invalidate your warranty.
Electric Models
A strain relief for the power supply cord is provided. The
installer must supply a cord that meets all Local and National installation standards.
Gas Models
U.S. and Canadian Installations
A power cord (115V units only) is supplied with a plug attached. Plug the power cord into the desired receptacle.
NOTE: The BLCT-202G must be hard wired.
This oven model uses a variable frequency inverter drive.
Appliances that use variable frequency inverter drives
produce high frequency noise and require lters and
shielded motor cabling. This causes higher leakage current toward Earth Ground. Especially, at the moment of
switching ON this can cause an inadvertent trip of the appliance’s ground fault interrupter (GFCI). Some GFCIs
are more sensitive than others. Blodgett has qualied the
Pass and Seymour brand, part number 2095, 20 A, 125
VAC, 60 Hz, specication grade GFCI duplex receptacle
as being immune to the variable frequency inverter drive’s
noise. Blodgett recommends using this specic GFCI for
this model oven.
WARNING!!
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by a special cord or assembly available
from the manufacturer or its service agent.
VENTILATION
Blodgett BCT/BLCT ovens are equipped with an open/direct exhaust system that removes surplus humidity from
the oven chamber. The exhaust system has an electrically
operated damper.
The ventilation motor can be controlled directly from the
oven. This means that the ventilation starts when a program is started and runs for 10 minutes after the program
is completed.
BCT/BLCT-61, 62, 101, 102 and 202 ovens only. The exhaust tube can be connected to a ventilation system. In
that case, a special extraction funnel is tted to avoid suction directly from the oven chamber. This extraction funnel
can be ordered from Blodgett.
If an extraction hood is installed in the ceiling above the
oven, it should project 20” (50 cm) over the front of the
oven.

Gas Connection
GAS PIPING
A properly sized gas supply system is essential for maximum oven performance. Piping should be sized to provide a supply of gas sufcient to meet the maximum demand of all appliances on the line without loss of pressure
at the equipment.
Example:
NOTE: BTU values in the following example are for
natural gas.
You purchase a BLCT-61Gto add to your existing cook
line.
1. Add the BTU rating of your current appliances.
Pitco Fryer 120,000 BTU
6 Burner Range 60,000 BTU
Deck Oven 50,000 BTU
Total 230,000 BTU
2. Add the BTU rating of the new oven to the total.
Previous Total 230,000 BTU
BLCT-61G 40,900 BTU
New Total 270,900 BTU
3. Measure the distance from the gas meter to the cook
line. This is the pipe length. Let’s say the pipe length
is 40’ (12.2 m) and the pipe size is 1” (2.54 cm).
4. Use the appropriate table to determine the total capacity of your current gas piping.
The total capacity for this example is 375,00 BTU. Since
the total required gas pressure, 270,900 BTU is less than
375,000 BTU, the current gas piping will not have to be
increased.
NOTE: The BTU capacities given in the tables are for
straight pipe lengths only. Any elbows or other
ttings will decrease pipe capacities. Contact
your local gas supplier if you have any questions.

PRESSURE REGULATION AND TESTING
The gas pressure to the appliance must be rated for each
appliance while the burners are on. A sufcient gas pressure must be present at the inlet to satisfy these conditions. Refer to the table below for correct gas pressure.
Each appliance has been adjusted at the factory to oper-
ate with the type of gas specied on the rating plate.
Each oven is supplied with a regulator to maintain the
proper gas pressure. The regulator is essential to the
proper operation of the oven and should not be removed.
DO NOT INSTALL AN ADDITIONAL REGULATOR
WHERE THE UNIT CONNECTS TO THE GAS SUPPLY
UNLESS THE INLET PRESSURE IS GREATER THAN
14” W.C. (1/2 PSI) (37mbar).
The oven and its individual shutoff valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any
pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of 1/2 psig (3.45kPa).
The oven must be isolated from the gas supply piping
system by closing its individual manual shutoff valve during any pressure testing of the gas piping system at test
pressures equal or less than 1/2 psig (3.45kPa).
Prior to connecting the appliance, gas lines should be
thoroughly purged of all metal lings, shavings, pipe
dope, and other debris. After connection, the appliance
must be checked for correct gas pressure.

Operation
Using the Core Probe
All Blodgett BCT/BLCT ovens come standard with one
core temperature probe. It is possible to run two core
probes at the same time. An additional probe may be purchased from your Blodgett dealer.
The core temperature sensor offers three cooking
modes.
• Normal
• Delta-T
• Cook & Hold
CORE PROBE MODES
Follow this procedure for all three core probe cooking modes.
NOTE: The core probe must be set up prior to activating
a cook cycle.
1. Select the desired cooking mode. Refer to instructions on setting the cooking mode.
2. Set the desired fan speed if applicable. Refer to instructions on setting the fan speed.
3. Set the vent position if applicable. Refer to instructions on setting the vent position.
4. Insert the core probe into the center of the product.
Then plug the probe into the oven at the connector
located in the upper corner of the right side panel.
NOTE: Meat probes on mini combi models are
internal and do not need to be plugged into
the oven.

Operation
Using the Core Probe
NORMAL CORE PROBE COOKING
In the normal mode, the core probe will notify you when
the product has reached the desired pull temperature.
The cook temperature is constant in the normal mode.
1. Follow steps 1-8 on page 24 to start a normal core
probe cook cycle.
2. The oven sounds an alarm, and turns off when the
specied core temperature has been reached.
Unplug the core probe and remove the product.
DELTA T
When you use Delta-T, the oven maintains a constant
difference in temperature between the core temperature
and the oven temperature. The temperature of the oven
rises slowly as the core temperature rises. Delta-T provides gentle cooking resulting in a tender, juicy product.
Cooking with Delta-T reduces shrinkage by up to 20%
compared to traditional modes of cooking.
1. Follow steps 1-8 on page 24 to start a Delta T cook
cycle.
2. The oven sounds an alarm, and turns off when the
specied core temperature has been reached.
3. Unplug the core probe and remove the product.
COOK & HOLD
Cook & Hold is an extension of Delta-T cooking. The oven
temperature adjusts relative to the actual core temperature of the product. When the desired core temperature is
reached, the oven adjusts the cavity to maintain the core
temperature, acting as a warming mode. Cook & hold is
suitable for roasting over night when the staff is off duty.
1. Follow steps 1-8 on page 24 to start a Cook & Hold
cycle.
2. When the product has reached the desired core temperature the display will read HOLD??? and the oven
will adjust the cavity temperature to maintain the core
probe temperature.
3. Unplug the core probe and remove the product when
ready to serve.
Tips for Using Cook & Hold
• Recommended holding temperature is 140-150°F
(60-65°C). At higher temperatures a gradual dehydration of proteins takes place, the weight of the
meat is reduced and the meat becomes less juicy.
• With a hold temperature of 140-150°F (60-65°C), the
meat can be taken out immediately before carving.
• After being held for 5-6 hours shrinkage increases.
Tips for Delta-T Cooking
• For best results start with an oven temperature of
85-100°F (30-40°C).
• HOT AIR mode is recommended for very fatty and
small roasts. STEAM mode is recommended for
large hams with bones. RETHERM mode is recommended for poultry and other lean pieces of meat.
Recommended Core Temperatures
• Rare 125-135°F (52-57°C)
• Medium 140-145°F (59-62°C)
• Well Done 160-185°F (72-85°C)

Maintenance
Cook to Perfection
The cook to perfection function helps recipes compen-
sate for temperature uctuations. These can occur when
transitioning between recipes with different temperatures,
opening the door, or adding frozen products. The system
makes real time adjustments to cook time ensuring quality cooking.
CTP threshold (%)
CTP threshold accounts for when the cavity temperature
is below the recipe set temperature. Time will be added
to the recipe as long as the cavity temperature remains
below the CTP threshold percent of temperature.
EXAMPLE: The oven preheats to a recipe’s set temperature of 350°F and a frozen product is loaded. The temperature of the frozen product and opening the door causes
the cavity temperature to drop to 230°F. The CTP will begin extending the total recipe time as long as the cavity
temperature remains below the programmed threshold
value, at 80% this equates to 285°F. This compensates
for the time it takes the oven to recover to the 350°F
called for in the recipe.
CTP tolerance (°)
The CTP tolerance value is a temperature range. If the
oven’s measured temperature is outside the range of the
desired temperature, the unit will adjust cook times. Unlike the threshold value, the tolerance compensates when
the oven is too high above set point as well as below set
point by adding or subtracting time as needed.
EXAMPLE: Using the same example of 350°F, a 15° tolerance means that time will be added to the recipe as
long as the cavity is lower than 335°F and subtract if cavity achieves temperatures above 365°F. This may be the
case if you go from a recipe with a higher set temperature
to a lower temperature without allowing the oven to cool.

2. Select SUPER USER from the SETTINGS MENU.
3. Select SETTINGS from the SUPER USER MENU.

Cleaning & Preventative Maintenance
DAILY CLEANING
Daily cleaning of your Combi oven is essential for sanita-
tion, and to ensure against operational difculties.
Cleaning the Exterior
1. The exterior of the appliance may be cleaned and
kept in good condition with a light oil. Saturate a cloth
and wipe the appliance when it is cold; wipe dry with
a clean cloth.
