High-powered, Fast Recovery
Units For Heavy-Duty and
A La Carte Applications.
With more power than any competitive
boilerless steamer and less water usage,
SmartSteam100 is the best choice for
demanding operations with heavy-duty
applications.
SmartSteam100 offers all of the choices
you expect in speed, capacity, gas or
electric operation in a steamer designed
for the needs of foodservice operations.
• Significant water and
energy savings
SmartSteam100 Boilerless Steamer Benefits
— For Heavy-Duty Steam Applications
High performance
Cavity design and side-mounted convection fan ensures even
cooking side-to-side, top-to-bottom and front-to-back. Slide-out
steam lid maintains steam reservoir boil for fast recovery when the
door is opened.
Low water consumption
Steam venting eliminates the need for high volume condensate
spray (water savings up to 70% compared to a conventional
steamer). Optimized high-efficiency infrared gas burners and
electric elements reduce energy costs.
Automatic operation
Front panel microprocessor controller and timer/switch fills,
drains and maintains heating for timed and continuous steaming
operation. When a SmartSteam100 unit is in the off position, it
automatically drains. All other boilerless steamers require manual
operation of a valve or removal of the steam lid.
• Gas or electric — 3, 5 and
10-pan models
• Table-top, stand-mounted
and double-stacked
• Easy installation, operation
and maintenance
Tolerates “bad” water
SmartSteam100 has no boiler or generator to be blocked with
mineral deposits.
Ease of cleaning and maintenance
Steam lid slides out for access to steam reservoir for easy access and
cleaning, without the removal of pan guides. Easy-to-read cleaning
and operating instructions located on unit door. A treatment kit is
available for hard water areas so a simple vinegar solution can be
used to dislodge lime-scale.

steamers have the power and capacity for any
application.

Also, electric SmartSteam100 units are in the top of their
class for KW per pan.
No gas boilerless unit!
Efficient use of steam
SmartSteam100 generates only the amount of steam
necessary for ecient cooking. Spent steam is directed
upward into the kitchen hood system for fast removal and
increased comfort of your workers. Less water is required for
the entire process.
Compact footprint
SmartSteam100 can be stationed next to most foodservice
equipment to save valuable kitchen and hood vent space.
Minimum two-inch clearance required on both sides. Shield kit
available for units installed in high heat areas of the kitchen.
Dry heating elements
Electric elements are individually attached to the underside
of the steamer cavity and sized for optimum heat transfer into
the steam reservoir without immersion in water. The result is
energy savings.
Infrared gas burners
State-of-the-art burners deliver heat more efficiently and
conserve on energy costs.
Water resistant
Water won’t splash into a SmartSteam100 unit during typical
kitchen wash down by an Operator. Most competitive units have
side louvers that allow water to enter the unit causing failure.
Ergonomic control panel
Tougher material, simplified indicators, push button controls,
and water resistant switch and hour meter provide an easy to
understand and use interface.
Convection fan
Groen was the first to introduce a convection fan into a steamer
and this tradition is continued with a powerful side-mounted
fan in SmartSteam100. The fan ensures fast, even distribution
of steam throughout the entire cooking cavity.
Hands-free door handles
Anyone who has had to struggle with a paddle or refrigerator
door handle while holding a pan of food will appreciate the
convenience of the Groen push-up handle. No hands are
required to open or close the door.

Automatic diagnostics
Easy-to-use diagnostics that automatically indicate
when the steamer is not operating at optimal
performance.
Steam lid
SmartSteam100’s unique, slide-out steam lid
separates food pans from the steam reservoir.
Opening the door and adding pans of cold food
doesn’t lower the cavity or water temperature so
it’s is always ready when you need it.
Single connection
SmartSteam100 double-stacked units have
single connections for gas, water and drain.

Mirror finish interior
Cooking residue is more easily removed from
a SmartSteam100 steamer compartment given
