2.0 INSTALLATION (Continued)
PLUMBING CONNECTIONS:
NOTICE: Plumbing connections must comply with applicable sanitary, safety and
plumbing codes.
Two water lines are provided. Connect water supply lines to the 3/8" copper tubes at the
rear of the steamer.
One line is for supply of water to the generator and one for cold condensate water to
condense live steam entering the drain line.
DRAIN CONNECTIONS:
Appliance drain is 2 inch pipe size. Provide open air gap type drain.
WARNING: An open gap floor drain is required immediately below the
appliance drain.
COLD WATER CONDENSER:
The steamer is equipped with a cold water condenser, in the rear of the cooking chamber,
which helps to condense the steam prior to discharge into the drain. The steamer freely
vents itself by the negative pressure created by the condensate water drainage. This
negative pressure prevents steam leakage around the door gasket and helps draw the
steam through the cooking compartment. Steam leakage at the door may indicate a
plugged or improperly installed drain.
Temperature of condensate water flowing through the drain is controlled by the thermostatic
cooling valve (TCV) located inside the controls compartment on the right side of the unit.
The valve has been factory set to keep condensate water flowing into the drain at or below
140EF. Depending on local plumbing code requirements, this setting may be changed to
obtain a different maximum drainage temperature. Refer to next section Performance
Check for instructions to set the (TCV).
