rts manual contains general information, installation, operating, trouble
maintenance information for the Market Forge direct connected steam jacketed kettle. Also included are parts
lists, with accompanying diagrams showing each replaceable part.
1.1 DESCRIPTION
The Market Forge direct connected steam
jacketed kettle is a steam operated pressure ves sel designed for cooking. It consists of a stain
less steel kettle with double-wall construction,
forming a surrounding chamber around the
lower 2/3 of the kettle into which steam is introduced as a source of heat for cooking. Steam input plumbing is equipped with a manual control
valve. Units are supplied mounted on legs or a
pedestal base, in tilting and stationary models,
and in capacities ranging from 5 to 150 gallons
(19 to 565 liters). Safety valves are standard on
all units except table-top models, on which a
safety valve is optional.
1.1.1. Table-Top Kettles
Table-top kettles are available in 5 to 10 gal
lon (19 and 38 liter) capacities, and are mounted
in trunnion assemblies which must be mounted
to a cabinet top. The trunnion pivots contain
steam input and return connections. Tilting is
accomplished manually by pulling a handle af
fixed to the kettle rim to rotate the kettle in its
trunnion mounts.
Applicable model designations include:
FT-5 [5 gallon (19 liter) capacity]
FT-10 [10 gallon (38 liter) capacity]
1.1.2 Stationary Kettles
These units consist of larger capacity kettles
mounted in fixed position on legs or pedestal
bases. They are equipped with tangent draw-off
valves for the removal of kettle contents. Hinged,
self-leveling, counterbalanced lids cover the
kettle openings. Units are available with a steam
jacket around the lower 2/3 of the kettle surface
("2/3 jacketed") or around the entire kettle sur
face ("full jacketed").
