Equipment Description

The Groen Convection Combo™ consists of a stainless steel cooking chamber, an air heating compartment with electric heating elements and dual fans, a steam generator with electric heating elements, and a control compartment housing electrical components.

All major components of the Convection Combo are encased in a 16 gauge stainless steel cabinet. Glass fiber insulation, 1 to 2 inches thick, lines the cabinet.

The oven has a double door with two large, tempered glass windows in each door. Oven viewing lights are mounted between the inner and outer doors. Separate hinges allow easy access to the space between the doors for window cleaning and light fixture maintenance. A condensate collection tray at the bottom diverts condensate to the oven drain. An optional solid door is available. The solid door does not provide viewing lights.

All operator controls are on the front panel. Standard controls permit the Convection Combo to operate in four modes:

1. As a convection oven

2. As a self-contained, pressureless steamer

3. As a combination oven-steamer

4. With the meat probe operating

Cooking chamber capacity:

28 Steam table pans (12 x 20 x 2-1/2"), or 20 Bake pans (18 x 26"), or 40 Gastronorm pans (1/1)

All units are supplied on stainless steel legs. Controls and monitoring displays for cooking time, operating mode, and temperature occupy the control

panel. The upper portion of the panel has a digital time readout and touch pads for setting the time. Below the timer section are lights to indicate the status of the unit plus touch pads that select the mode of operation and switch on the power. A digital readout shows the chosen temperature, which is selected with a dial. Status of the pilot burners is indicated by the lights above the pilot ignition switch, located behind the sliding door in the front of the unit.

An insulated steam generator is mounted next to the oven. Steam enters the cooking chamber through two connecting tubes at the top and bottom on the right side of the cavity.

The air heating space, containing the heat exchanger tubes and fans, is separated from the cooking chamber by removable right-hand and top partitions.

The compartment containing the automatic controls and other electrical components is on the right-hand side of the unit and is entered by removing the right outside panel or by opening the hinged panel in the front.

A drain is located in the floor of the cooking chamber. Fluids drain from the floor to the stainless steel drain pipe outside the oven. This drain pipe includes a spray condenser, which suppresses any steam escaping from the chamber. The drain assembly includes a built in vent with overflow protection.

The roll-in loading and unloading equipment for Combo SuperSystem 40 consists of the Model CCS "Smart Cart" and the separate Model CRS rack. When the rack is engaged with the cart, a hand crank raises the rack for transportation and lowers the rack to position it in the oven. The cart is disengaged from the rack and removed before the oven door is closed. Design of the system allows the rack to be easily held in and transferred between reach-in or walk-in refrigerators and freezers, blast chillers, and holding cabinets.

Water Conditioning

It is desirable to supply the steamer with water that will not form scale. Scale formation depends on the hardness of the water and the hours of operation. In a few areas of the United States, the water supply is sufficiently free of minerals to avoid scale formation. However, most water supplies carry heavy loads of minerals, which will form scale and possibly cause premature failure of components.

Your local water utility can provide a statement on the scale forming qualities of the water supply. Water supplied to the boiler should contain not more than 30 parts per million total dissolved solids (TDS) and should have a pH of 7.0 or higher.

Please follow these simple precautions:

1. Do not rely on "water treaters" commonly sold as scale preventers and scale removers. They do not work. The only proven way to prevent scale build-up is to feed in water practically free of scale-forming minerals.

2. If your water supply carries scale-forming minerals, as most water supplies do, run the water through a properly maintained softener. Exchangeable softener cartridges or a regeneratable softener can be used. In either case, establish a regular program of exchanging the cartridges or regenerating the softener. Installing a water meter on the inlet line between the softener and the steamer will give an accurate check of water consumption and a way of determining when to change the cartridge or regenerate the softener. By using a softener and operating within the softener's capacity to exchange minerals, the user will optimize performance and minimize maintenance of the steamer.

3. If you notice a slowing of steam production, have your authorized Groen service representative check the unit for build-up of scale. Heavy scale will reduce the unit's ability to boil water and can cause a fire tube in the steam generator to overheat and burn out.

TO MINIMIZE SCALE PROBLEMS, USE AND PROPERLY MAINTAIN A SOFTENER, AND CLEAN THE STEAM GENERATOR PERIODICALLY OR AS NEEDED.

Installation

NOTICE:

Do not install a unit in these locations:

• Where the right side vents are blocked or within 6 inches (15 cm) of any combustible material or within 12 inches (31 cm) of a heat source, like a braising pan, deep fryer, char broiler, or kettle.

• To the left of any open-flame equipment.

• With less than 7 inches (18 cm) of clearance at the rear.

To avoid drainage problems, level the unit front-to-rear, or provide a slight pitch to the rear. Maintain a minimum 8-1/2 inch (22 cm) clearance between the cabinet and the floor (Figure 2), to permit proper operation of the cart.

ACCORDANCE WITH ALL APPLICABLE CODES.

B. Electrical Supply Connection

Local codes and/or the National Electrical Code should be observed in accordance with ANSI/ NFPA 70-1987 (or latest edition). AN ELECTRICAL GROUND IS REQUIRED. The electrical schematic is located in the service compartment and in this manual. In Canada, provide electrical service in accordance with the Canadian Electrical Code, CSA C22.1 Part 1, and/or local codes.

FAILURE TO GROUND THE UNIT COULD RESULT IN ELECTROCUTION AND DEATH.

1. Panel Removal The wiring and the control compartment are accessed by removing the right side panel. Remove

one screw at the back of the panel, then slide the panel toward the front of the unit. Set the panel aside.

2. Supply Voltage The CC40-E must operate at the rated nameplate voltage ±10%.

3. Terminal Block The terminal block for incoming power is located at the back of the control compartment. The

ground terminal is located below the terminal block. The unit must have a separate ground wire for safe operation. Minimum size of the ground wire is 6 AWG (4.5 mm) for a 200 Amp circuit or 8 AWG (3.5 mm) for a 100 Amp breaker.

4. Supply Wire To determine the type of wire needed for the power supply, find the operating voltage from the

back data plate. Refer to the "Electrical Supply Connection" label on the back of the unit for correct wire size and insulation temperature rating. The specified wire must be used to meet Underwriters Laboratories and National Electrical Code requirements. The knockout hole (Figure 3) is sized for a 2 inch (51 mm) conduit fitting.

C. Water Supply Connection

Two water connections are required. One supplies water to the steam generator (treated water), and the other is for the condensate spray (untreated water). A back siphonage device (check valve) must be installed in each incoming cold water line according to local plumbing code. The water line pressure should be between 30 and 60 PSIG (210 and 410 kPa). A pressure regulator is required above 60 PSIG (410 kPa). Two 3/4 inch NH (garden hose type) connectors are required to connect the water supply to the water inlet valves. The minimum diameter of each water feed line is 1/2 inch (13 mm). Use a washer (or, if necessary, two washers) in the hose connection. Do not allow the connection to have any leak, regardless of how small.

D. Drain Connection

A hose may be attached to the outlet of the drain by means of a clamp. Use 3" ID hose for CC40-E. The hose may be connected directly to an atmospherically vented building drain. The drain has a 2 inch (5 cm) air vent, which eliminates the need for a free air gap at the connection to the building drain, unless such a gap (Figure 4) is required by local code. Do not block the air vent in any way. Do not attach anything to the vent tube or reduce the size of the vent tube. Do NOT use plastic pipe in the drain line, because the drain must withstand boiling water. Install the drain

line with a constant downward pitch. Do NOT create any water trap (Figure 5) in the line.
