Introduction
DESCRIPTION
Market Forge model MT-25EO (25-gallon) and MT-40EO
(40-gallon) are self-contained tilting electric steam jacketed kettles. Each kettle has a jacket of double-wall construction forming a sealed reservoir around the lower twothirds of the kettle.
The stainless steel kettle is enclosed in a cabinet base
containing a 24 kW electrically powered boiler for kettle
operation.
BASIC FUNCTIONING
The kettle becomes operational when the power switch is
placed in the ON position. At this point, the boiler reservoir
begins to ll with water automatically until the water level
reaches a factory preset, high water level. At the high wa-
ter level, incoming water ow is shut off.
Once the water level is sufciently above the heating el-
ements, the heater rest switch is momentarily placed in
the ON position. The action releases closing contactors
to heating elements.
After steam pressure builds up to proper operating pressure, the steam control valve on the cabinet top can then
be manually operated. This open valve allows steam to
ow into the kettle jacket-heating both the kettle and contents. As water level drops due to steam conversion, the
automatic water level control system opens and closes
the incoming water valve to maintain constant water level.
If the level control system fails, and automatic low water
cut off switch turns off power to heating elements.
