NPACKING
Immediately after unpacking the steamer, check for possible shipping damage. If the steamer is found to be
damaged, save the packaging material and contact the carrier within 15 days of delivery.
Installation Instructions
1. These kettles must be installed on a suitable table or counter top.
2. On counter top make 7/8" holes at 13 - 3/4" centers for kettle legs on models DC-6, DC-10, and DC-12, 23-1/2"
centers on Model DC-20. Provide sufficient space from rear wall to allow for tilting of kettle.
3. From bottom of leg remove mounting lockouts and washers. Apply Silastic to flared edge of leg. Insert
threaded portion of legs through holes. Replace washers and locknuts and tighten. Wipe off excess sealant.
4. Install a safety relief valve in the steam line set at the maximum operating pressure of the kettle.
5. Connect steam supply line (1/2" pipe size) to steam inlet fitting on right leg.
6. Install a steam shutoff valve in steam supply line, preferably near the kettle for convenience.
7. A pressure reducing valve will be required if the steam supply pressure is greater than the maximum kettle
working pressure.
8. If large amounts of water are in the steam line it will be necessary to install one or more ball float traps in the
line to eliminate the water.
9. A steam line pressure gauge is also recommended to determine the actual amount of steam coming to the
kettle.
10. Install a suitable steam trap in condensate line (left leg) near the kettle and run condensate return line to drain.
If the condensate return line will be directed to the boiler, then it must have a check valve and gate shutoff
valve near the kettle.
