ASME Code and approved as a steam boiler restricted to operation at pressure not to exceed 15 psi. SB-6SC steamer has a pan capacity of 6 (2-1/2") pans. SB-10SC has a pan capacity of 10 (2-1/2") pans. SB-16SC has a pan capacity of 16 (2- 1/2") pans.
1.0 INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS UNPACKING Immediately after unpacking, check for possible shipping damage. If the appliance is found to be damaged, save the packaging material and contact the carrier within 15 days of delivery. Before installing, verify the electrical rating agrees with the specification on the rating plate.

1.0 INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS (continued) Ideally an exhaust system should be located directly above the appliance to exhaust steam and heat generated by the appliance. 1. Set the unit in place and level using a spirit level. 2. Ascertain that a floor drain (open gap) is convenient to the appliance drain. 3.
2.0 INFORMATION TO STEAM FITTER Assuming availability of 30 psi supply steam pressure immediately to the appliance, then pipe sizes of ½" or 3/4" or 1" will deliver respectively 90, 165 or 385 lbs. of steam per hour to the appliance Heat Exchanger. From the foregoing to use ½" pipe line would most likely prove inadequate.
Page 9
It is suggested that, wherever possible, the steam supply line to the appliance is a separate line from the steam source. If the appliance must be supplied from a line supplying other appliances, the pipe sizes and pressure will have to be verified. Further, during idle periods, when the steam in the supply line is not in use, water will form from condensed steam in the supply line.
3.0 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS START UP INSTRUCTIONS Turn on water and steam supply to appliance. Open cabinet door and turn on Power Switch. Pilot light will come ON and steam generating will begin. In approximately 20 minutes, sufficient amount of pressurized steam will have been generated in the heat exchanger.

3.0 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS (Continued) CAUTION: An obstructed drain can cause personal injury or property damage. Frequently check that the compartment drain and plumbing is free of all obstructions. Never place food containers, food or food portion bags in the cooking compartment in such a way that the compartment drain becomes obstructed.
4.0 PERIODIC MAINTENANCE CAUTION: Protect yourself. When flushing control, hot water and steam will flow out of the drain. Be sure to flush your boiler water level control daily. Failure to follow this procedure can cause the control to malfunction resulting in serious boiler damage. The Boiler Water Level Control installed on your boiler requires periodic maintenance.

Continue draining water for about fifteen (15) seconds, from control until water is clean. Manually close valve. Recheck gauge glass. If water level has dropped significantly, wait for the boiler to restore water level and pressure and repeat if necessary. 1.
5.0 CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS Never spray water into electric controls. CAUTION: Do not use cleaning agents that are corrosive. CAUTION: Live steam and accumulated hot water in the compartment may be released when the door is opened. 1. Keep exposed cleanable areas of unit clean at all times. 2.

5.0 CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS (Continued) DESCALING BOILER CAUTION: Improper use of this procedure may damage your appliance! 1. With Generator tank empty, close manual blowdown valve. If appliance is equipped with Automatic Blowdown, turn water supply OFF to appliance. Turn power switch ON, this will energize and close blowdown valve. 2.
6.0 TROUBLESHOOTING NOTICE: Contact the factory, the factory representative or local service company to perform maintenance and repairs. Refer to warranty terms. DOOR LEAKS 1. Check for damage to door gasket. WATER ACCUMULATES IN THE COMPARTMENT 1. Compartment drain screen clogged. Remove and clean thoroughly and then replace.

TO CALIBRATE PRESSURE SWITCHES NOTE: Pressure switches are factory set. Calibration is only required if pressure switches are replaced or if adjustment is required. Pressure switch range is from 1 to 15 psi. Adjust all settings to maximum on high signal adjustment screw on pressure switches. Adjust in the following sequence: - High limit pressure switch.
