CHAPTER 1. PRODUCT IDENTIFICATION

Cleveland Range, Inc. identifies products by two numbers: a model
number and a serial number. The model number identifies the product
characteristics. The serial number identifies the individual unit

SteamCraft V steamers are identified by model number CET-16. Each
character of the model number identifies a characteristic of the steamer.
The SteamCraft V is a Convection steamer, Electric powered, and Table
mounted with an input energy rating of 16.5 KW. This manual covers all
standard features of model CET-16 SteamCraft V steamers. Figure 1-1
illustrates the SteamCraft V and identifies the major components.

During manufacture, SteamCraft V's are assigned serial numbers. A
typical SteamCraft V serial number is: WC-7350-89G-02 The left half of
the number carries design information. The right half of the number
contains the manufacturing date and the unit of the manufacturing lot.
The date of our sample number is July, 1989:89= 1989, G=July. 02=the
second unit of the manufacturing lot.

Serial numbers are used when explaining differences in design, parts, or
operation among units with the same model number. For example: a
particular part is used on all CET-16 steamers, with serial numbers
before WC-7350-89G-02, and a different part is used on CET-16 steamer
WC-7350-89G-02 and all those manufactured after it

Presently, there are no significant design, parts, or operating differences

among model CET-16 SteamCraft V steamers.

PRODUCT INFORMATION PLATE

The serial number and model number for each are listed on the

product information tag secured to the left side of the steamer. Refer to

PREPARATION FOR INSTALLATION

Before unpacking and positioning the SteamCraft V, select and prepare
the installation site. This section of Chapter 2 details selection of the
SteamCraft operating location, and preparation of that site with power,
water, and drain lines .

Water Quality Requirements

As with any steam generating equipment, water quality is a critical factor
in SteamCraft V performance. If Seed water is tow in Total Dissolved
Solids (TDS) and free of particulate manner, the steam generator, heating
elements, and valves of the SteamCraft V will give years of trouble-free
service with a minimum of maintenance .

CAUTION

VOID WARRANTY

The use of steam generator feed water not within
the limits specified in this section of the manual
could void equipment warranties.

In some areas, even potable tap water contains a variety of impurities that
can cause costly problems in steam generating equipment. Of primary
concern are mineral salts, IPS, which remain behind as line or scale
deposits after the water has boiled away as steam. These deposits have
caused a variety of components to fail, including heating elements,
probes, and solenoid valves. Of equal importance is the toss of energy
efficiency due to line or scale buildup. In these areas, either a Steamer­Gard water treatment system must be installed, or time frequency of
maintenance, cleaning, and descaling must be increased.

It is critical to know the quality of the feed water before starting con­struction of the water supply fines. If a SteamerGard water treatment
system must be installed to achieve acceptable water quality, it should be
installed before running the water supply lines to the SteamCraft V.

Contact a local water treatment specialist for an on-the-premises water
analysis. The recommended minimum feed water quality requirements for
the SteamCraft V are listed in table 2-2.

• If analysis shows that the supply water is within the required limits, a

single water connection can be installed as illustrated in figure 2-2.

• If analysis shows that the supply water is NOT within the required limits,
a SteamerGard water treatment system and two water supply lines
must be installed as illustrated in figure 2-3.

• If analysis shows that the supply water is NOT within the required limits,
and it is not possible to install a SteamerGard water treatment;

plan on increasing the frequency of maintenance, cleaning, and
descaling beyond that recommended in the maintenance schedule

(Chapter 4, page 37).

Free Air Vented Drain Lines

The drain outlet discharges exhaust steam and hot condensate from the
steamer. This discharge is usually under pressure. The drain outlet
MUST be free air vented to disburse the pressure, and avoid creating a
back pressure or a vacuum within the SteamCraft V.

• Backpressure will cause steam and hot water leakage around the door.

• A vacuum will implode the steamer.
Furnishing and plumbing the drain lines is the responsibility of the owner
and/or installer. Figure 2-7 illustrates a drain layout recommended by
Cleveland Range. Observe the following instructions to determine the

pipe size, the number of fittings required, and the layout of the drain line
path.

Printed 4/90
