Installation Instructions
GENERAL
The PS-3E and PS-6E steamers are single compartment
electric pressureless steam cookers with an internal electric steam generator that maintains standby water temperature at approximately 205°F. PS-3E is rated 10 kW.
PS-6E is rated 15 kW.
At high altitude locations a lower temperature is required
to achieve atmospheric steaming. Contact your autho-
rized service ofce to have the thermostat adjusted if the
steamer will be operated at high altitudes.
UNPACKING
This steamer was inspected before leaving the factory.
The transportation company assumes full responsibility
for safe delivery. Immediately after unpacking the steamer, check for possible damage. If the steamer is found to
be damaged after unpacking, save the packaging material and contact the carrier within 15 days of delivery.
Prior to installation, verify that the electrical service agrees
with the specications on the machine data plate which is
located on the left side panel.
LOCATION
Allow space for plumbing and electrical connections.
Minimum clearances are 0” on the sides and 6” (152 mm)
on the back for proper air circulation. Allow adequate access for operating and servicing the steamer, 36” (915
mm) at the front of the steamer and 15” (381 mm) above
the steamer.
ANCHORING STEAMER (WITHOUT LEGS)
1. Place steamer in the desired location on the levelled
counter top and mark four corners. Remove the
steamer and drill 1/2” holes as indicated in “Figure 2”.
2. Apply a bead of RTV or other equivalent sealant
around bottom perimeter edge of the steamer. If anchoring the steamer, this bottom seal is necessary to
meet NSF requirements.
3. Set steamer on counter and bolt down securely with
3/8 - 16 bolts (not supplied).
STACKING KIT
Follow instructions in the stacking kit when installing
stacked convection steamers.
LEVELING FEET (STANDARD) OR 4” ADJUSTABLE
LEGS (OPTIONAL)
Thread the four 2” levelling feet shipped in a bag inside
the steamer cabinet into the threaded holes on the bottom corners of the steamer. Or, thread the four optional
4” adjustable legs into the threaded holes on the bottom
corners of the steamer.
LEVELING
Using a spirit level or pan of water in the bottom of the
steamer, adjust the levelling feet or the feet on the adjustable legs to level the steamer front-to-back and sideto-side. After the drain is connected, check for level by
pouring water onto the oor of the compartment. All water
should drain through the opening at the back of the compartment cavity.
