OM-TDB/8-20-CFC
Equipment Description
The Groen TDB/8-20-CFC cooker/mixer consists of a water-jacketed kettle with a motor-driven mixer. The 20 quart tilting kettle is equipped with electronically controlled electric heaters for the jacket.
The kettle of Model TDB/8-20-CFC is constructed of stainless steel welded into one piece. The body has a reinforced rim and a butterfly-shaped pouring lip. It is fitted with an integral water jacket. The kettle exterior has a bright semi-deluxe finish. The kettle’s pouring height allows filling pans up to 4 inches high on a table top.
The kettle’s internal electric heaters provide uniform heat in three stages, with jacket temperature control over the range of 140 to 180ºF (60 to 80ºC).
In addition to the three-stage adjustable thermostat for operating control, the unit has a high limit thermostat, as a safety feature, plus an indicator lamp and water gauge glass, with which to monitor kettle operation.
Mixing is controlled with a power switch. The switch doubles as a circuit breaker for motor protection. The agitator continuously sweeps the side and bottom of the kettle.
Electric power for the kettle and mixer is supplied through a plug-in power cord, which is furnished with the unit. Standard unit operation requires connection to single phase, 115 VAC, 60 Hz electrical service. The unit must be supplied from a separate, dedicated 20A branch circuit.

Operation
A. Controls
The operator controls the cooker/mixer with the:
1.Temperature control dial. The dial turns electric power for the heaters on or off and sets the operating temperature of the kettle, with a maximum jacket temperature of 180BF. (Maximum temperature of a product heated by the kettle is less than 180B, due to heat loss out the top of the kettle.)
2.Mixer power switch, a switch that turns electric power for the motor drive on and off.
B. To Operate the Kettle (Heating)
1.Every day make sure that the jacket water level is at the middle of the sight glass. If the level is low, see “Jacket Filling” in the “Maintenance & Cleaning” section of this manual.
CAUTION
DO NOT OPERATE THE KETTLE WHEN THE WATER LEVEL IN THE JACKET IS LOW. YOU MAY BURN OUT THE HEATING ELEMENTS.
2.Plug in the power cord. If necessary, turn on the power at the circuit breaker or fuse box.
3.Turn the temperature control dial to the desired setting. The red indicator light indicates that the kettle is heating. Cycling of
the light on and off indicates that the kettle is being held at the set temperature. Once in each cycle the temperature controller will make a clicking sound as it cycles on and off. This is normal.
4.To shut down the kettle, turn the temperature control dial to “OFF.”
5.For prolonged shut-down or before cleaning the outside of the unit, unplug the unit.
C. To Operate the Mixer
1.Place the agitator on the shaft.
2.Press the power switch to the “ON” position.
3.To shut down the mixer, press the power switch to “OFF.”
4.For prolonged shut-down or when the outside of the unit is to be cleaned, unplug the unit.

HOT
SURFACES
WARNING
AVOID ANY DIRECT CONTACT WITH HOT SURFACES. DIRECT SKIN CONTACT COULD RESULT IN BURNS.
Scrapers or steel wool can harm the kettle 7 surface.
OM-TDB/8-20-CFC
To reduce effort required in washing, let the detergent solution sit in the kettle and soak into the residue. Do NOT use abrasive materials or metal tools that might scratch the surface. Scratches make the surface harder to clean and provide places for bacteria to grow.
Do NOT use steel wool, which may leave particles in the surface and cause eventual corrosion and pitting.
g.The outside of the unit may be polished with a stainless steel cleaner such as “Zepper” from Zep Manufacturing Co.
h.When equipment needs to be sanitized, use a solution equivalent to one that supplies 200 parts per million available chlorine. Obtain advice on sanitizing agents from your supplier of sanitizing products. Following the supplier’s instructions, apply the agent after the unit has been cleaned and drained. Rinse off the sanitizer thoroughly.
NOTICE: NEVER LEAVE A CHLORINE
SANITIZER IN CONTACT WITH STAINLESS STEEL SURFACES LONGER THAN 30 MINUTES. LONGER CONTACT CAN CAUSE STAINING AND CORROSION.
i.It is recommended that the equipment be sanitized just before use.
j.If there is difficulty removing mineral deposits or a film left by hard water or food residues, clean the kettle thoroughly and use a deliming agent, like Groen Delimer/Descaler (Part Number 114800) or Lime-Away® from Ecolab, in accordance with the manufacturer’s directions. Rinse and drain the unit before further use.
k.If cleaning problems persist, contact your cleaning product representative for assistance. The supplier has a trained technical staff with laboratory facilities to serve you.
Maintenance
NOTICE: Contact Groen or an authorized Groen representative when repairs are required.
1. Periodic Maintenance
A Maintenance & Service Log is provided at the back of this manual. Each time there is maintenance performed on your Groen kettle, enter the date the work was done, what was done, and who did it. Keep this manual on file and available for operators to use.
Periodic inspection will minimize equipment down time and increase the efficiency of operation. The following points should be checked often:
a.The jacket water level should be at the middle of the gauge glass when the kettle is at room temperature. If the level is low, see “Jacket Filling” below.
WARNING
SHUT OFF THE ELECTRIC POWER TO THE UNIT BEFORE YOU OPEN THE BOTTOM COVER.
b.The inside of all housings should be kept clean and dry.
c.Electrical wiring should be kept securely connected and in good condition.
d.The fill plug on the elbow at the back of the kettle should have c” holes in it. These holes must be kept free of debris for proper venting. Plugging the holes could cause pressure to build!
2. Jacket Filling and Water Treatment
The jacket must be kept filled with the proper amount of treated water. From time to time, you will need to restore the jacket water to the proper level, because its water slowly evaporates. You may also need to replace treated water, if the jacket is drained for any reason. The procedure for adding water follows:
a.If you are replacing water lost by evaporation, use distilled water. If you are replacing treated water that ran out of the jacket, prepare more treated water as directed below.
b.Remove the plug from the elbow on the back of the kettle body.
c.Add water or treated water through the elbow, until the water level rises to the
