The HY-6E has two independent cavities, each
with its own base-mounted steam generator.
(New model shown)
Equipment Description
Your Groen HY-6E HyPerSteam Convection Steamer is
designed to give years of service. It has two stainless
steel cavities (cooking chambers) which are served by
twin, independent atmospheric steam generators which
are electrically-heated. A powerful blower circulates the
steam in each cavity to increase heating efficiency.
Each cavity holds up to three steam table pans (12" x 20"
x 2½"). An 18 gauge stainless steel case encloses the
cavities, the steam generators and the control
compartment that houses electrical components. Door
hinges are reversible (the doors may be set to open from
the left or right). Operating Controls are on the front
panel.
HY-6E steamers are equipped with fully electronic
controls and a button-activated, preprogrammed CLEAN
cycle. The On-Off switch is a touch pad control, and the
distinctive symbol for steam is integrated into the panel
design.
The drain system includes a spray condenser, which
helps keep steam from escaping down the condensate
drain.
Water Conditioning
It is essential to supply the steam generator with water
that will not form scale. Even though the steam
generator/boiler is engineered to minimize scale
formation, scale development depends on the
hardness of your water and the number of hours you
operate the equipment each day.
Most water supplies contain minerals which form scale.
It is this scale which could lead to an early component
failure.
Your local water utility can tell you about the minerals
in your water. The water going to the steam generator
should have between 30 and 40 parts per million (ppm)
total dissolved solids (TDS) and should have a pH
(acidity rating) of 7.0 to 9.0. Please follow these
simple precautions:
1. The best way to prevent scale is to use a Groen
PureSteem™ Water Treatment System which has
been specifically designed for Groen steamers and
combination ovens. Do not rely on unproven
water treatment systems sold for scale
prevention and removal. They are not
specifically designed to work with Groen
steamers and combination ovens.
2. A well-maintained water treatment system and a
regular cartridge replacement schedule is
essential.
3. Using a Groen PureSteem™ Water Treatment
System will provide longer steam
generator/boiler life, higher steam capacity, and
reduce maintenance requirements.
4. If you notice a slowdown in steam production or
an increase in deliming, have the steamer
checked for scale build-up. This could be an
indication that the water treatment cartridges
need replacing. Heavy scale reduces the unit’s
ability to boil water, and can even cause
component failure.
MINIMIZE SCALE PROBLEMS BY INSTALLING
AND MAINTAINING A GROEN PureSteem™
WATER TREATMENT SYSTEM AND BY
DELIMING THE STEAMER REGULARLY.
The Groen HY-6E Steamer features two separate
water inlets — one for the steam generator/boiler
(treated water), the other for the spray condenser
(untreated water). The second intake will reduce
treatment requirements resulting in significant
savings.
The dual water connections are side by side on the
rear of the unit. When seen from the back of the
unit, the treated water intake is on the right.

F. Branch Circuit Protection
Each conductor must have over-current
protection. Refer to the label on the back of the
unit for the proper wire type and size.
Connections to the unit must be watertight.
We strongly recommend that the HY-6E
Steamer have its own branch circuit
protection. Current and power demands for the
different units are as follows:
2. Water Connection(s)
Install a check valve to prevent back flow in the
incoming cold water line, as required by local
plumbing codes. Water pressure in the line
should be between 30 and 60 PSIG (210 and
420 kPa). If pressure is above 60 PSIG, a
pressure regulator will be needed.
A ¾ inch NH connector (garden hose type) is
used to attach the water supply to the water inlet
valve. The minimum water feed line diameter is
½ inch (13mm). Use a washer in the hose
connection. Do not allow the connection to leak,
no matter how slow it may be.
If you have the dual water connection option, put
the treated water (softened) to the right intake
(looking from the rear of the unit), and untreated
water to the left. Connections for both are made
as described above.
OM-HY-6E

Page 9
OM-HY-6E
Don’t allow water traps in the hose.
Drain Connection
The HY-6E Steamer must be leveled front to
back. A 1½ inch (38mm) ID hose may be
attached to the drain pipe by means of a hose.
Do NOT use plastic pipe. The drain must
withstand boiling water.
Install the drain line with a constant downward
pitch. Do not allow any water traps in the line.
A trap can cause pressure to build up inside
the cavity during steaming, which will make
the door gasket leak.
IMPROPER CONNECTION OF THE
DRAIN WILL VOID YOUR WARRANTY

Operation
WARNING
ANY POTENTIAL USER OF THE EQUIPMENT SHOULD BE TRAINED IN SAFE AND CORRECT OPERATING
PROCEDURES.
A. Controls
Operator controls are on the front right of the unit.
The HY-6E and HY-3E control panels has the
following touch pads and indicator lights:
! The ON/OFF touch pad gets the
HyPerSteam ready for use, or shuts it off.
! The READY indicator light shows that the
steam generator is at standby temperature
and the cavity is hot enough to begin
steaming.
! The DELIME indicator light is lit when the
unit is operating in the cleaning mode.
! The SERVICE indicator light shows when
the water level probes have stopped
working, and need to be cleaned (normally
an indication of lime deposits).
When one probe fails, the SERVICE light
flashes briefly every few seconds, but the
unit will continue to operate. De-lime the unit
as soon as possible.
If the problem continues, both probes may
fail. Then the steamer stops working, the
light will flash repeatedly and the beeper will
sound. At this point you must turn off the
power and contact an Authorized Groen
Service Representative for repair.
! The HI TEMP indicator light comes on when
the steam generator is too hot.
The unit will automatically shut off, and
cannot be turned on again until the steam
generator cools and the HI TEMP indicator
light goes out.
! The TIMING indicator light stays on when
the timer is running.
! The CLEAN touch pad is used to start the
automatic 50 minute cleaning cycle.
The ON/OFF pad readies the HyPerSteam for use or
shuts it off. The READY light shows the steam
generator is at standby temperature and the cavity is
hot enough to start steaming.
The timer is used in three ways:
1 In the OFF position the steam generator
stays at a low boil or “holding” temperature.
2 When a cook time is set, the unit steams
until the timer runs down to OFF. At that
time steaming stops, a red light comes on
and a beeper sounds.
3 With the timer turned to the ON position, the
unit steams continuously. The green light
stays lit. The steamer will not time down.
B. Operating Procedure
1. Press the ON/OFF touch pad for the steamer.
The steam generator will fill, and heat until the
READY light comes on. (Aprox. 10 minutes.)
2. Load food into pans in uniform layers. Pans
should be filled to about the same levels, and
should be even on top.
3. Open the door and slide the pans onto the
supports. If you will only be steaming one pan,
put it in the middle position.
4. Close the door. With the READY indicator lit,
take one of the following steps:
! If you want to steam the food for a certain
length of time, set the timer for that period.
The timer will automatically run the steamer
for the set time and then turn it off. A red
light will come on and a beeper will sound.
Steam production stops.
! If you want to steam continuously, turn the
timer to the manual ON position. A green
light will come on. The unit will continue
steaming until you stop it by turning the timer
to OFF. When steaming continuously YOU
MUST CONTROL STEAMING TIME.
