Introduction

All F-PF and F-LF direct connected steam jacketed kettles
are direct steam operated pressure vessels of a double­wall stainless steel construction forming a steam chamber
(jacket) enveloping the kettle bowl surface. All kettles are

stationary, oor mounted in xed positions either on legs
with adjustable anged feet (LF models) or pedestal (PF

models).

CAPACITIES

• F-20LF and F-20PF - 20 gallons (76 liters)

• F-30LF and F-30PF - 30 gallons (114 liters)

• F-40LF and F-40PF - 40 gallons (152 liters)

• F-60LF and F-60PF - 60 gallons (227 liters)

• F-80LF and F80PF - 80 gallons (303 liters)

FUNCTIONING MODE

Direct connected steam jacketed kettles consist of a
stainless steel bowl and a stainless steel jacket which en­velopes the surface of the bowl, thus forming a sealed
pressure vessel (chamber) into which steam is introduced
by means of a manual control valve.

The kettle bowl is the container for the food product which

ideally should be of a liquid or semi-liquid consistency to

achieve complete contact with the bowl surface and thus
fully absorb the heat transmitted through that surface.

The temperatures required for the cooking process to
function adequately must be greater than the boiling point
of the liquid food product. Further, the greater the steam

pressure used, the higher the temperature and conse-

quently the quicker the cooking process. For example,

steam pressurized at 30 p.s.i. attains a temperature of
274 degrees Fahrenheit (135 degrees Celsius).
