3500M36D - 6 pan steamer on 36” direct steam base
DESCRIPTION
Market Forge Model 3500M36D direct connect convection steam
cooker. Will be integrally mounted on a cabinet base containing direct
steam connections.
The 3500 will be of double-wall construction with 1” (25mm) thick
insulation between cooking compartments and exterior walls, and will
have two 18 gauge stainless steel welded cooking compartments with
coved internal corners, and a 16 gauge stainless steel front panel.
Each cooking compartment on the 3500 has a positive slam action,
field-reversible door constructed of Type 304 stainless steel. Door
latches are spring loaded. The inner door gasket is a one-piece
NSF-approved silicone rubber gasket. The cooking compartment
is equipped with a door interlock (switch) that shuts off steam to the
cooking compartment when the door is opened. Factory installs units
with door opening from the right, see diagram.
Each compartment will be equipped with a perforated steam inlet
baffle positioned for precise application of high velocity steam across
the surface of food. Controls for each compartment will include a
60-minute load compensating timer with constant steam position,
an indicator light, steam inlet solenoid valve, pressure relief valve,
Direct Steam Steamer
vacuum breaker, and an automatic cold water steam condenser
system, and a removable drip trough.
FOOD SERVICE EQUIPMENT
Each compartment will be independently and automatically controlled
by setting the cooking time on the 60-minute timer. At the end of
cooking time, indicator light will turn off and a continuous signal will
sound. Signal is silenced by returning the timer to the OFF position.
Stainless steel cabinet base will match other Market Forge stainless
steel equipment. A stainless steel frame will be equipped with 6”
(152mm) stainless steel legs and adjustable bullet feet, reinforced
stainless steel counter-top, and stainless steel lift-off front cover.
A cold water condenser will automatically condense all exhausted
steam into water before it is released from the cooker.
OPERATION WILL BE BY:
Direct steam at a minimum of 15 PSI (1 kg/cm2). Unit will be
equipped with ball float trap to remove condensate from incoming
steam line and a 3/4” (19mm) NPT pressure reducing valve which will
reduce initial pressure of 20 to 50 PSI (1.3 to 3.5 kg/cm2) to required
15 PSI (1 kg/cm2) operating pressure. Minimum BHP required: 3.0
BHP.
