 3500M36G - 6 pan steamer on 36” wide 200,000 BTU boiler base

DESCRIPTION

Will be a Market Forge Model_______ gas fired convection steam
cooker. Will be integrally mounted on a cabinet base containing gas
fired steam boiler.

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
the 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, vacuum breaker,
an automatic cold water steam condenser system, and a removable
drip trough. Each compartment will be independently and automatically

Gas Boiler Based Steamer

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

FOOD SERVICE EQUIPMENT

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 and enclose steam boiler. Base with 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.

The CSD-1 compliant steam boiler features an intermittent spark pilot
ignition and nickel plating. The steam boiler will be automatically filled
with water and brought to pressure when water and heat switches are
turned on and automatically drained under pressure when water and
heat switches are turned off. A cold water condenser will automatically
condense all exhausted steam before it is released from the cooker
and steam boiler drain. Also includes an ASSE approved backflow pre­venter, automatic water level control, low water cut-off, water strainer
and cathodic protector. For more boiler information see the M24G­M36G spec sheet (14-0111).

WATER SUPPLY

Good quality water feed is the responsibility of the owner. Water quality
must be within the following general guidelines.

TDS: 40-125 ppm Hardness: 35-100 ppm Chlorine: <0.2 ppm
Silica: <13 ppm Chlorides: <25 ppm
Chloramine: <0.2 ppm pH: 7.0 - 8.5

The best defense against poor water quality is a water treatment system
designed to meet your water quality conditions.
