ASSEMBLY
12 Gallon Models
Base Mounting Diagram - Bottom view
1. Table-top models (12 gallon) must be positioned
on a firm, level stand, or existing counter top, and
bolted in place. These models are supplied with
four threaded mounting bushings welded to the
underside of the base.
2. Install service requirements as required (see
below).
3. Once the kettle is secure and service utilities
installed, screw tilt handle into the threaded hole
provided at the right side of kettle.

RECOMMENDED PIPING

Recommended Piping Schematic
STEAM
All steam plumbing to and from the kettle and
steam boiler should be thoroughly cleaned and
inspected for dirt and debris before final
connection to the kettle are made.
Generally, kettles require 1/2" i.p.s. pipe, 10-45 psi
steam pressure. If the steam supply pressure
exceeds 45 psi, a pressure reducing valve is
required. The steam inlet is at the right side of the
kettle, as seen from the front.
CONDENSATE
Maximum pressure rating on kettles is 50 psi. It is
highly recommended that a pressure relief valve
equal to or less than this pressure be installed on
the incoming steam line close to the kettle.
A steam condensate trap must be plumbed to a
drain, using minimum 1/2" NPT plumbing. The
condensate line is limited to a maximum rise of 10
feet in order for the steam pressure to adequately
force the condensate through the plumbing. Any
higher rise requires a pump.
If the steam boiler to which this kettle is installed
has a condensate return (closed loop system), a
1/2" steam strainer, a 1/2" steam trap, and a 1/2"
check valve must be installed on the output
(condensate) side of the kettle.
