equipment Description
Your Groen SSB- G/5G/10G or ( )SSG- G/5G/ 10G Smartsteam Boilerless Steamer is designed to give years of service. It has a stainless steel cavity (cooking chamber) which is served by an gas-heated atmospheric steam generating reservoir. A powerful
blower circulates the steam in the cavity to increase heating eficiency.
Each cavity holds up to three, ive or ten steam table pans (1 ” x 0” x 1/ ” deep) as shown below.

An 18-guage stainless steel case encloses the cavity, the steam generating reservoir and the control
compartment that houses electrical components.
Door hinges are ield-reversible (the door may be set to open from the left or right). Operating controls are on the front panel.
The SSB- G/5G/10G steamers are equipped with electronic controls. These units are readily identiied
by their unique control panels. Steamer function is controlled by touch pad controls and a rotary timer.
The drain system on all models includes a spray condenser, which cools drain water.
Inspection and Unpacking
Your Groen SmartSteam Boilerless Steamer will be delivered completely assembled in a heavy shipping carton strapped to a skid. On receipt, inspect carton carefully for exterior damage.
caution
sHipping straps are unDer tension anD can snap bacK WHen cut.
Carefully cut the straps and detach the sides of the carton from the skid. Pull the carton up off the unit. Be careful to avoid personal injury or equipment damage from staples which might be left in the carton walls.

tHe area DirectlY arounD tHe appliance must be cleareD of all combustible material. failure to folloW tHese instructions can cause boDilY inJurY anD/or propertY Damage.
The steamer must be disconnected from the gas supply system during any pressure testing of that system which has test pressures in exxcess of 1/ PSI ( . 5 kPa).
2.electrical supply connection
Provide 115 VAC, 60 HZ, 1 PH, 15 AMP service. Bring wire in through hole in the lower left back panel. Each cavity requires a separate cord for connections. Local codes and/or the National Electrical Code should be observed in accordance with ANSI/NFPA 70. an
electrical grounD is reQuireD.
The wiring diagram is located in the service compartment and in this manual. Maximum load is 1/ AMPs. In Canada, provide electrical service in accordance with the Canadian Electrical Code, CSA C . Part 1 and/or local codes.
3.gas supply connection
Connection to the gas supply shall be in accordance with the chart below.
Install and operate the gas appliance in a well ventilated area. Adequate air must be supplied to replenish the air used for combustion. Installation must conform with local codes and/or with the
Naitonal Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z .1/NFPA-5 (latest edition) or the National Gas and Propane Code CSA B1 9.1 as applicable.
Any item which might obstruct or restrict the low of
air for combustion and ventilation must be removed.
Do not obstruct the lue cover or rear vents after
installation.

In Canada, the installation must conform to the Canadian Gas Code, CAN 1-B1 9, Installation
Codes for Gas BurningAppliances and Equipment and/or local codes.
After the unit has been connected to the gas supply,
all gas joints must be checked for leaks. Do not use lame checking for leaks. A thick soap solution or
other suitable leak detector should be used.
for a unit on casters:
A.The installation shall be made with a connector that complies witht the standard for connectors for movable gas appliances. ANSI Z 1.69.CSA 6.16, and a quickdisconnect devise that complies with the standard for quick-disconnect devices for use with gas fuel, ANSI Z 1. 1.CSA 6.9.
B.Adequate means must be provided to limit the movement of the appliance without depending on the connector and the quickdisconnect device or its associated piping to limit the appliance movement.
C.The location where the restraining device
may be attached to the appliance shall be in acordance with Groen speciications for the device.
4.Water connection(s)
Install a check valve to prevent back low in the incoming cold water line, as required by local plumbing codes. Water pressure in the line should be between 0 and 60 PSI. If pressure is above 60 PSI, a pressure regulator will be needed. These pressures will provide the 1.5 gallons per minute required for proper steamer function.
A / inch female NH connector (garden hose type) is used to attach the water supply to the inlet valve. minimum inside diameter of the
water feed line is 1/2 inch. Use a washer in the hose connection. Do not allow the connection to leak, no matter how slowly. Do not over-tighten
hose connections.
CoLd WATER PRESSURE 30-60 PSI
This equipment is to be installed to comply withthebasicplumbingcodeoftheBuildingOficials
and Code Administrators International, Inc. (BOCA) and the Food Service Sanitation Manual of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
NOTE: Local code may also require check valves in the water supply line.
5.Drain connection
Level the steamer front to back, or pitch it slightly to the rear (maximum 1/ inch) by adjusting the optional legs or the bullet feet on the optional stand.

Warning:
Do not connect tHe Drain DirectlY to a builDing Drain. blocKing tHe Drain is HaZarDous.
There must be a free air gap between the end of the hose and the building drain. The free air gap should be as close as possible tot he unit drain. There must also be no other elbows or restrictions between the unit drain and the free air gap.
caution
Do not use plastic pipe. Drain must be rateD for boiiling Water.
Install the drain line with a constant downward pitch.
important: do not allow water traps in the line. A trap can cause pressure buildi\up in the cavity, which may cause the door gasket to leak.
proper Drain line connection –– Drain line must have a constant downward pitch of at least 1/4” per foot. observe local code regarding air gap spacing and drain connections.5.
