Equipment Description
A. ALL MODELS
B. MODEL TDC/3
The Groen TDC/3 and TDA/1 are tilting, table-top kettles with direct steam-heated jackets. The one-piece stainless steel body on each includes a butterfly shaped pouring lip. The kettles have a 180 emery grit interior finish and a bright semi-deluxe exterior finish.
Every unit requires a remote steam source. The steam supply is controlled by an inlet valve, and enters the jacket through one support and rotary joint. Condensate leaves the jacket through the other rotary joint and support. Standard units are ASME shop inspected, stamped, and registered with the National Board. These kettles operate efficiently at pressures above five PSI. A safety valve, strainer, steam trap, and check valve are all required for installation, and may be ordered from Groen as optional equipment.
Optional features and equipment include:
• Higher maximum pressure • Kettle brush kit
• Lift-off covers • Steam trap assembly
• T5C table mounting • Motor-driven agitator
• Bracket inserts
The TDC/3 kettle has a 2/3 jacket rated for working pressures up to 55 PSI. The kettle body incorporates a triple reinforced rim. Two tubular steel supports support the swivel on which the kettle tilts. A leg projects from the bottom of the kettle.
C. MODEL TDA/1
The design of the TDC/3 makes it easy for one person to tilt the kettle with the tilting handle, even when the kettle is full.
