UNPACKING AND INSPECTION
WARNING
SOME INA/2 KETTLES MAY BE
UNBALANCED. CARE SHOULD BE
TAKEN IN HANDLING THEM DURING
EQUIPMENT PLACEMENT.
LOCATING THE KETTLE
LEVEL THE KETTLE
ANCHOR THE KETTLE
The equipment will arrive in a crate. Immediately upon receipt, carefully inspect the crate for
exterior damage. Open the crate and inspect the unit for concealed damage. Carefully read the
bill of lading and check that all items shipped are with the unit. Report any shipping damage or
missing items to the delivery agent. Record the model number, serial number, and installation
date for your unit and file this information for future reference.
To remove the equipment from the crate, pull the side boards loose from the top of the crate,
taking care not to damage the unit with tools or nails. Remove first the top, then the sides,
and then the cross-piecing that holds the unit down. When installation is to begin, lift the unit
straight up off the skid. During the installation process, it is important to properly support the
equipment until it is properly anchored in its permanent position.
Identify the desired location for the kettle. Check its position for operational clearances and
line-of sight to the control panel. Consider the movement of the motor on its carriage, room for
access for the kettle operator(s), and clearance for the tilting agitator or tilting kettle assembly.
If this system has a hoist and rail over the kettle normally the rail is located over the center of
the kettle.
Once the kettle is oriented as the job site dictates, Level the kettle by adjusting the flanged feet
and using the rim as a reference, leveling from front to back and side to side.
Bolt the leg flanges to the floor. It is crucial that they be anchored securely to the floor.
UTILITY CONNECTIONS
TO THE KETTLE
Use the kettle documentation included in this manual and the layout utility prints to locate
where all the necessary utilities need to be connected. Some of the connections are:
• steam in
• chilled water in
• hot and cold potable water in
• air in
• electric power in
• control panel wiring in to the terminal block on the left console of the kettle (for factory
terminated wiring of the speed control, temperature sensors, tilt safety switch, emergency
stop switch, etc.)
• condensate out
• chilled water out
• kettle jacket drain
• kettle food valve
• etc.
The kettle may or may not have all the above referenced utilities and can be ordered pre-piped
and pre-wired. Take the time to lay out all the utilities your kettle requires before you start this
installation. Keep in mind the kettle food valve under the kettle will have to be accessed many
times a day, and taken off for cleaning every day. The temperature probe also requires removal
and cleaning daily.

Installation
STEAM SUPPLY
SAFETY RELIEF VALVE
SAFETY WARNING
Connect the steam supply to the steam inlet fitting(s). A strainer, check valve, union, and shut
off valve are required to be placed in the kettle’s steam supply line near the kettle. The automatic valves that are operated by the kettle control panel are included in the piping provided
with the kettle.
Dissimilar piping materials require a dielectric coupling. To obtain the full heating capacity of the
kettle use a steam supply line that is at least as large the kettle’s steam inlet fitting. The steam
line size may need to be enlarged to overcome line losses in longer piping runs or to accommodate other equipment being supplied from the same steam line. Steam pressure must be
restricted to the working pressure rating of the kettle. A steam pressure gauge should be installed
in the steam system piping in a prominent location and the appropriate safety valves utilized.
Close attention to line sizing, filtration, hydraulic snubber (water hammer eliminators), back flow
preventer, length of run, insulation, etc. when you are designing this system. The equipment will
not work without the correct amount of steam and proper pressure differential between steam
and condensate lines. It is the customer’s responsibility to for proper design of this system for the
equipment to work correctly. Water treatment, cleaning of strainers, and/or replacement of parts
from improper steam treatment and/or design is the customer’s responsibility.
A safety relief valve must be utilized that is rated to relieve at a pressure no higher than (the
Maximum Allowable Working Pressure, MAWP) stamped on the kettle’s National Board nameplate. This part is included in the kettle’s scope of supply. The valve will come pre-installed.
Do not allow the relief valve outlets or levers to be blocked. Route relief valve discharge lines so
that personnel cannot be injured when the valve relieves, normally within 6 inches of the floor.
CONDENSATE RETURN
COOLING WATER SUPPLY
6 OM-INA/2-100 TW
Install a condensate return line with a properly sized condensate trap, check valve, shutoff
valve, and union from the kettle jacket to the boiler’s condensate return system if available. The
unit also has automatic valves that are controlled by the kettle control panel. These parts are
included in the scope of supply.
Condensate pumped return with condensate lift stations may be required for the equipment
to work correctly. System design following national, state, and local codes needs to be taken
into account when designing the condensate system. Otherwise, pipe the condensate return
line to drain being careful to comply with national, state, and local codes governing discharge
temperatures.
Dissimilar piping materials require a dielectric coupling.
Install chilled supply line to the kettle inlet fitting(s). A strainer, check valve, union, and shut off
valve are included in the kettle’s chilled water supply line. The unit also has automatic valves
controlled by the kettle control panel. These parts are included in the scope of supply.
Dissimilar piping materials require a dielectric coupling.
To obtain the full cooling capacity of the kettle use a chilled water supply line that is at least as
large the kettle chilled water inlet fitting. The chilled water supply line size may need to be enlarged to overcome line losses in longer piping runs or to accommodate other equipment being
supplied from the same line. Close attention to line sizing, filtration, hydraulic snubbers (water
hammer eliminators), and correct pressure differential between the supply and return lines, and
following national and local codes needs to be taken into account when designing this system.
It is the customer’s responsibility to for proper design of this system for the kettle to work correctly. The water must be kept clean and free foreign materials and properly treated to prevent
deposits on the valves and inside the kettle jacket.
