POLARIS GAS BOILERLESS

G

MODELS: □ Polaris - 4

DESCRIPTION: Polaris is a Market Forge boilerless

steam oven efciently heated by a burner external to
the water reservoir. The steamer operates without an

external electric source. The electricity required by
the controls is generated by the steamer. The Polaris

steamer is protected from low-water conditions and is

also thermally protected. No plumbing, drain line or
electricity are required making this appliance ideal
for the catering market. Polaris steamers use 29,500
BTU/H per unit.

Cooking Compartment: Operation occurs from steam

generated in the cooking compartment. The walls

and ceiling of the cooking compartment are heated to
reduce steam condensing on these surfaces and to
reheat and revitalize partially condensed steam. The
cooking compartment is constructed of cast aluminum

with a food-grade non-stick hard anodized nish. The
cooking compartment acts as a heat sink, allowing for

heat retention, quick recovery, and reduced energy
consumption.

get too low the gas valve shuts off supply of gas to
the burner. The steamer is thermally protected; if the

cooking compartment gets too hot, the gas valve
shuts off gas supply to the burner. The Polaris has an

on/off switch on the control panel. The switch is used
to shut main burner ame off during slow periods with­out shutting off the pilot. The pilot ame keeps water
in the reservoir warm during off time promoting faster
recovery time. The unit can be lit with the piezo ignitor

on the control panel.

Doors: The door is fully insulated.
