Equipment Description
Groen™ Gas-Heated Eclipse™ Ergonomic Tilting Braising Pans provide a stainless steel pan equipped with patented heat transfer fins, burner/combustion chamber, hand-operated or electric powered tilting mechanism, thermostatic controls, and hinged cover. Eclipse serves as braising pan, griddle, fry pan, oven, kettle, bainmarie and food warmer/server, can be adapted for use as a non-pressure steamer and can be used to stir-fry, reheat and saute foods.
The pan body is made from heavy-duty stainless steel welded into one solid piece, with a polished interior and exterior. A pouring lip is welded to the front wall. The cooking surface is a stainless steel clad plate fitted with welded heat transfer fins which assure uniform heat transfer over the entire surface. The gas burner/combustion chamber supplies the heat.
An easily operated worm and gear mechanism tilts the pan and provides precise control for pouring or dumping the contents of the pan. This hand-wheel controlled mechanism is located in a stainless steel console to the right of the pan body. For BPP models with electric power tilt, a switch operates an electric motor that starts and stops the pan tilt smoothly. To assist cleaning, the pan body can be tilted past the vertical position. When the pan is tilted, the burners shut off automatically.
The thermostat provides automatic control of cooking temperature. Operating the thermostat dial on the front of the control console turns the heat on or off and sets the pan temperature.
A vented, heavy gauge, one-piece, stainless steel cover with a condensate drip shield on the rear edge is standard on the Braising Pan. A fully enclosed, torsion bar type counterbalance provides easy operation to open the cover and to maintain it open at any position. The cover opens to the back and is hinged to the frame, so it moves independently of the pan body.
The braising pan is mounted on an open-leg frame fabricated from tubular stainless steel.
Models BPM and BPP have an ignition system that uses electronic spark ignition. Optional models BPM -30GS and BPM-40GS have a standingflame pilot light that ignites the main burner.

(4)Wait 5 minutes, then proceed as instructed at "To Start Pan" above.
WARNING
WHEN TILTING BRAISING PAN FOR PRODUCT TRANSFER:
1)USE CONTAINERS DEEP ENOUGH TO CONTAIN AND MINIMIZE PRODUCT SPLASHING.
2)PLACE CONTAINER ON A STABLE, FLAT SURFACE, AS CLOSE TO THE BRAISING PAN AS POSSIBLE.
3)STAND TO THE SIDE OF THE PAN WHILE POURING — NOT DIRECTLY IN THE POUR PATH OF HOT CONTENTS.
4)RETURN PAN BODY TO UPRIGHT POSITION AFTER CONTAINER IS FILLED OR TRANSFER IS COMPLETE.
5)DO NOT OVERFILL CONTAINER. AVOID DIRECT SKIN CONTACT WITH HOT CONTAINER AND CONTENTS.
4. To Move a Unit on Casters
The unit must be anchored with a cable or chain to avoid accidentallybreaking or pulling loose the gas connection. When the unit is to be moved, first turn off and disconnect the gas connection.
Disconnect the cable from its anchor point on the floor or wall. Anchor the unit again as soon as it is in its new operating location or returned to the previous location. Turn on the gas supply and check for leaks with a soap solution. If leaks are found, do not operate the equipment. Call for service.
5.To Preheat the Pan
a. For best braising pan or frying results, preheat pan before you put in any food.
b.To get an even temperature across the pan, preheat at a setting of 300oF or less for 15 minutes or through several on-off cycles of the burner.
CAUTION
DO NOT HEAT AN EMPTY PAN FOR MORE THAN FIVE MINUTES AT A SETTING HIGHER THAN 300oF. DAMAGE TO THE PAN COULD RESULT.
C. Cooking
1.To simmer or slowly heat an item, set the dial at 210oF or lower. Put the cover down to minimize moisture loss, or leave it up to help dry or reduce the product. Set the thermostat higher to cook or drive off moisture faster. You may adjust the thermostat to any setting to cook the item exactly as required.
2.Leave the cover vent open to let excess steam escape. For long simmering operations, you may wish to close the vent to retain moisture.
WARNING
STEAM CAN CAUSE BURNS. AVOID ESCAPING S T E AM W H E N R AI S I N G C O V E R .
3.To check progress when the cover is closed, lift the handle of the vent cover slightly, and move it quickly to either side.
4.Standing to one side of the pan (to avoid the steam that will be released) grasp the nearer corner of the cover handle and raise the cover. The cover will stay in the open position until you push it down.
WARNING
ITEMS IN SAUCE OR MELTED FAT CAN SLIDE FORWARD SUDDENLY DURING TILTING AND SPLASH THE HOT LIQUID.
5.To pour product, remove grease, or assist in cleaning, first raise the cover, then tilt the pan forward by turning the tilting handwheel. When you stop turning the wheel, the pan body will hold its position.

Sequence of Operation
The following "action-reaction" outline is provided to help the user understand how the equipment functions.
A. Standard Models with Spark Ignition
1.When the power switch is turned on, it starts the spark igniter and opens the automatic valve for the pilot burner. The spark ignites a pilot flame, which heats the sensor. The sensor then sends a signal to turn off the spark. The flame thereafter acts as a standing pilot until the power is turned off.
2.If the pilot flame is not sensed within 70 seconds after spark begins, a timer shuts down the entire operation. To attempt a second trial for ignition, turn off the power switch. Check the gas supply valves and wait five minutes before trying again by switching power on. If there is still no pilot flame in four tries, close all valves, turn off the power, and contact an authorized Groen Service Agency.
3.When the operator sets a temperature on the thermostat, it allows the automatic gas valve to admit gas to the main burners, where it is ignited by the pilot flame. When the braising pan reaches the set temperature, the thermostat switch opens. This stops the signal to the gas control valve and shuts off gas to the main burner. The pilot flame remains lit. When the pan cools below the set temperature, the thermostat switch closes and starts another cycle. On and off cycling continues and maintains the pan at the desired temperature. This action is indicated by the Heat indicator light.
B. Models with Optional Standing Pilot Ignition
1.When the operator presses down the knob on the Combination Gas Control Valve and turns it to “Pilot”, gas is admitted to the pilot burner. Depressing the knob in this position overrides the automatic control, which otherwise shuts off all gas supply when the thermopile is cold. Lighting and maintaining the pilot flame for sixty seconds heats the thermopile to operating temperature, so the thermopile begins to provide electric current at 750 millivolts. Electricity from the thermopile powers the control circuit and the Combination Gas Control Valve. When the thermopile begins operating at full capacity, the knob may be released.
2.When the knob is turned to “ON”, the automatic valve for the main burner is able to open. Setting the thermostat to call for heat causes the thermostat to send a signal to the valve, which opens and admits gas to the main burner. Gas from the main burner is ignited by the pilot flame. When the pan reaches the set temperature, the thermostat switch opens, stopping the signal to the main burner valve and causing the valve to close. When the pan cools below the set temperature, the thermostat switch closes and
starts another heating cycle. On-off cycling continuesandmaintainsthepanatthedesiredtemperature.
C. All Models
1.The thermostat controls heating by alternately calling for flames at the full capacity of the main burners and then signaling the control to shut the burner off completely. Because the control works in this “all or nothing” way, the pan heats as fast as it can until it reaches the set temperature. Turning the thermostat dial to a higher temperature will cause heating to continue longer, until the pan reaches the higher temperature, but it cannot make the pan heat any faster.
2.The pans are protected from overheating by a secondary thermostat. If the pan temperature rises above 425º F, the thermostat causes the automatic gas control valve to close. When the pan cools, the thermostat automaticallyresets and permits normal operation to continue.
3.The tilt switch will shut off all burners whenever the braising pan is tilted 10 degrees or more from the horizontal.
4.A gas pressure regulator, which controls gas pressure at the burner manifold is built into the gas control valve.
5.On manual tilt models, turning the tilting handwheel turns a worm gear, which turns a gear wheel on one of the trunnions which support the pan body. Turning the gear wheel produces the tilting action.
6.On power tilt models, pressing the up/down switch operates a gear motor which turns worm and gear wheel as described in item 5 above.
NOTE: Neither model will heat (operate) when the braising pan has been tilted 10 degrees or more from the horizontal.

Cleaning
WARNING
KEEP WATER AND SOLUTIONS OUT OF CONTROLS AND BURNERS. NEVER USE A HIGH PRESSURE SPRAY DIRECTLY ON THE CONTROL CONSOLE OR ANY ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS.
1. Before any cleaning operation, shut off the burner by turning the thermostat dial to "OFF". If water or cleaning solution will be sprayed, unplug the unit from the electric power source, or shut off the power at the circuit breaker or fuse panel.
Use a brush, cloth, sponge or other non-abrasive tool for cleaning.
2. Clean all food-contact surfaces soon after use, before the pan has cooled completely. If the unit is in continuous use, thoroughly clean and sanitize both interior and exterior at least once every 12 hours.
CAUTION
MOST CLEANERS ARE HARMFUL TO THE SKIN, EYES, MUCOUS MEMBRANES AND CLOTHING. PRECAUTIONS SHOULD BE TAKEN TO WEAR RUBBER GLOVES, GOGGLES OR FACE SHIELD AND PROTECTIVE CLOTHING. CAREFULLY READ THE WARNINGS AND FOLLOW THE DIRECTIONS ON THE LABEL OF THE CLEANER TO BE USED.
3.Scrape or rinse out large amounts of food residues, then wash the inside of the pan body with a mixture of hot water and soap or an appropriate detergent, such as Mikro-Quat from ECOLAB. Follow the detergent supplier's recommendations on strength of the solution to use. Rinse the pan thoroughly with hot water and drain completely.
4.To remove materials stuck to the equipment, use a brush, sponge, cloth, plastic or rubber scraper, or plastic wool along with the detergent or soap solution. To minimize the effort required in washing, let the detergent solution sit in the pan and soak into the residue, or heat the detergent solution briefly in the pan. Do NOT use any abrasive materials or metal implement that might scratch the surface, because scratches make the pan hard to clean and provide places for bacteria to grow. Do NOT use steel wool, which may leave particles imbedded in the pan surface and cause eventual corrosion and pitting.
5.As part of the daily cleaning program, clean all external and internal surfaces that may have been soiled. Remember to check such parts as the underside of the cover, control console, etc.
6.Controls and the control console may be cleaned with a damp cloth or sprayed with a garden hose spray connected to city water supply. Do not use a pressure sprayer directly on the unit or electrical parts.
Don’t use metal implements or steel wool to clean the braising pan.
OM-BPM/BPP-G 11
WARNING
DO NOT SPRAY WATER DIRECTLY ON BURNERS AND GAS COMBUSTION CHAMBERS.
7. The exterior surface of the unit may be polished with a recognized stainless steel cleaner.
NOTICE
NEVER LEAVE A CHLORINE SANITIZER IN CONTACT WITHSTAINLESS STEELSURFACES LONGER THAN 30 MINUTES. LONGER CONTACT CAN CAUSE CORROSION.
8.If the equipment needs to be sanitized, use a sanitizing solution equivalent to one that supplies 100 parts per million available chlorine. Obtain advice on the best sanitizing agent from your supplier of sanitizing products. Following the supplier's instructions, apply the sanitizing agent after the unit has been cleaned and drained. Rinse off the sanitizer thoroughly.
9.If there is difficulty removing mineral deposits or a film left by hard water or food residues, clean the pan thoroughly and then use a deliming agent, such as Groen De-limer/De-Scaler (P/N 140513), in accordance with the manufacturer's directions. Rinse and drain the unit before further use.
10.If especially difficult cleaning problems persist, contact your cleaning product representative for assistance.
Maintenance
Your Braising Pan is designed to require minimum maintenance, but certain parts may need replacement after prolonged use. After installation, no user adjustment should be necessary. If a service need arises, only authorized personnel should perform the work.
WARNING
ELECTRIC POWER ALWAYS SHOULD BE SHUT OFF BEFORE WORK IS DONE ON INTERNAL COMPONENTS.
Service personnel should check the unit at least once a year. This periodic maintenance should include inspecting electrical wires and connections, cleaning the inside of the control console, and possible adjustment of the pilot light. (Units with .
standing pilot ignition only) At least twice a year, grease the two trunnion bearings and worm gear
Groen recommends the use of number two grade LGI lithium grease. Add grease through the zerk fittings on the gear hosing until grease flows out of the bearings around trunnion shaft. Also, add grease in the gear to cover arc that is in contact with the worm gear. Clean up excess grease.
WARNING
DISCONNECT ELECTRICAL POWER FROM THE UNIT BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO GREASE THE TRUNNION BEARINGS.
A Service Log is provided with the warrantyinformation at the back of this manual. Each time service is performed on your Groen equipment, enter the date on which the work was done, what was done, and who did it. Keep the manual with the equipment for quick and easy reference.
