The Groen TD B/7 is a table top, til ting, steam
jacketed k ettle w ith a th ermostatically controlled,
self-contained, electrically-h eated steam supply a nd
appropriate con trols, m ounted on a sturdy base. Th e
Model TDB/ 7 is available in 20 or 40 - quart capacity.
The body of the TDB/ 7 Kettle is constru cted of
stainless steel, w elded into one solid piece. Th e
kettl e is furn ished with a reinfor ced rim and a
butterfly shaped pouri ng lip. It has a st eam jacket
rated for worki ng pressur es up to 50 PSI. Kettle
fin ish is 180 emery grit on the inside and bright semideluxe on the outside. A tilt handle allows the
operator to manually tilt the kettle body in a
controlled manner. Pouring height accepts pans up to
4 inches high on a table top.
A built-in stea m generat or, sized for the k ettle
capacity and heated by electricit y, delivers stea m
into the ja cket. “Airless” oper ation of the stea m
jacket perm its uniform, efficient heating at
temperatu res a s low as 150°F a nd as hi gh as 295°F.
In addition to th e adjustable thermost at for operatin g
control, the unit has a tilt cut-off switch, low water
cut-off, safety val ve, an d high- lim it pressu re switch
as safety features. A heating indicator light,
pressure gauge, a nd sight gla ss are prov ided for
monitoring kettle operation .
A single electrical connection is required for
installation. The u nit ma y be ordered for use w ith
208/240 or 480 volt power. A ll kettles ar e wired for
three-ph ase operation. For sin gle-phase conversion,

Sequen ce o f Op er ati o n
The fol low in g “action-r eaction ” outline is prov ided
to help the user understand how the equipment
works.
When th e opera tor sta rts up the k ettle by tu rn in g
the operatin g th ermost at dial from “OFF” t o a
desir ed settin g, the ther m osta t switch closes.
This lights up the heating indicator light and
causes the contactors to close, allow in g power
to flow to heating elements. When the
tempera tu re of the steam jacket rea ches the
value corresponding to the dial setting, the
therm osta t swit ch opens. This turn s off t he
heating indicator light and causes the contactors
to open, stopping the power t o th e heater s. As
soon as the thermostat senses that the kettle is
cooling below t he set point, th e th ermost at
switch closes, the h e ating in dica tor light comes
on, the con tactors close, and the heaters come
on again. O n-off cycli ng continues, k eepin g th e
kettle at the set temperature This is why th e
heating in dicator light cycles on a nd off during
norma l operation. Ev ery time th e kettle i s tilted,
the tilt cut-off switch in terru pts the power supply
to t he heat ers, so th at th e heating element s will
not operate whil e not submer ged in th e ja cket
water.
If steam pressure greater than 50 PSI is
generated in the jacket, the safety valve will open
and r elieve t he excess pressu re.
In the event that the jacket water level gets too
low a nd the heating elements overheat, th e highlimit control will open and shut off pow er to th e
elements until the kettle cools. Setting the
operating th ermost at dial to “OFF” shu ts down all
control and heating circuits.

Maintenance
NOTICE: C ontact Groen or an aut horized Groen representative when repairs are required.

file and available for operators to use.
Periodic inspection will minimize equipment
down time a nd incr ease the efficiency of
operation. Th e following points should be
checked:
[BY OPERA TOR]
a. Check th e pressure/vacuum ga uge every

operating at 15 psi (105 kPa ), by holding the
test lev er for at least 5 secon ds. Then
release the lever and let the valve snap shut.
If the lever does not a ctiva te, or there is no
evidence of di scharge, or the val ve leaks,
immedia tely discontinue use of the kettle an d
contact a qualified Groen service
representative.

COULD RESULT IN SEVER E BURNS.
DISCONNECT ELECTRICAL POWER FROM
THE KETTLE BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO
GREASE THE TRUNNION BEARINGS.

At least twice a year, grease the two
trunnion bearings. The bearings are located
within the kettle support hou sin g. Remove
the access panels from th e support h ousing
with a screwdriver to gain access to the
grease fittings. Use a lithium-based, multipurpose grease. When the access panel s
are removed, the m ounting bolts for the
trunnion bearings and tilt switch can also be
checked for tightness. When fi nished,
reassembl e access panels to support

When th e kettle i s cold, a positive pressure
reading or a reading around zero on the

presence of air in th e ja cket. Air in the jack et
slows dow n the heating of the k ettle.
To remove air:
a.Start the unit. (See the “Operation”

4. Water Treatment P rocedure
WARNING
TO AVOID INJURY, READ AND FOLLOW
ALL PRECAUTIONS STATED ON THE
LABEL OF THE WATER TREATMENT
COMPOUND.
(1) Fill the mixing container with the
measured amoun t of water required.
(See t he table at right). Distill ed water is
recommended.
(2) Hang a strip of pH test pa per on th e rim
of the container, with about 1 inch of the
str ip below the su rface of the water .
(3) Measure the water treatment compound
you will be using. (One way to do this is
to add the compound from a measuring
cup.)
(4) Stir the water continuously, while you
slowly a dd water treatment compou nd,
until th e water rea ches a pH betw een
10.5 and 11.5. Judge the pH by
frequ ently com paring th e color of the test
str ip w ith the color char t provided in th e
pH test kit. Color blind people mix in g th e
treated water solution must use an
electroanalytical instrument to measure
the pH level or have a person that is not
color blind read the test strip color level.
(5) Record the exact amounts of water a nd
tr eatment com pound used. These
amounts may be used again, if the same
sources of water and compound are
employed to refill the jacket in the future.
However, it is a dvisable to ch eck the pH
every time treated water is prepared.
WARNING
BEFORE REPLACING ANY PARTS,
DISCONNECT THE UNIT FROM THE
ELECTRIC POWER SUPPLY.
All internal wiring is marked as shown on the
circuit schematic drawings. Be sure that new
components are wired in the same manner
as the old components.
