INSTALLATION AND OPERATION MANUAL, SELF-GENERATING STEAM FULL JACKETED
KETTLES, MODELS EL-20F TO EL-60F, EP-20F TO EP-60F
INTRODUCTION
3.0 DESCRIPTION
All electrically powered kettles described and referred to in this manual are pressure vessels of
a double-wall construction forming a sealed jacket (chamber) enveloping the kettle bowl
surface.
The kettle bowl is the container for the food product which ideally should be a liquid or semi-
liquid consistency to achieve complete contact with the bowl surface and thus fully absorb the
heat transmitted through that surface from the pressurized steam generated in the kettle jacket.
The jacket is intended to function as a self contained sealed chamber with a permanent solution
of water and antifreeze sufficient not only to immerse and thereby protect replaceable electric
heating elements, but also provide the steam source during the steam generating process.
The heating elements are thermostatically dial controlled to provide precise temperatures
throughout the range from slow simmer to rolling boil.
All stationary kettles are intended to be permanently floor mounted on legs with adjustable
flanged feet (EL models) or pedestals (EP models).
All kettles are equipped with a spring assist stainless steel lid covering the kettle bowl opening,
a sanitary stainless steel tangent draw-off valve for the removal of the food product from the
kettle bowl, and a safety relief valve plumbed to the kettle jacket.
4.0 CAPACITIES
All models are suffixed with either - 20F, - 30F, - 40F, or - 60F to indicate the capacity of that
kettle in US gallons. Thus an EL-40F indicates a full jacketed electrically powered steam kettle
mounted on legs with a capacity of 40 US gallons.
