Water Connections For The Steamchef - Cleveland SteamChef 22CGT3.1 Operation Installation Maintenance Manual

• The appliance and its main manual shut-off valve must be disconnected from the gas supply
piping system during any pressure testing of the system at test pressures in excess of 14" water
column (1/2 psi or 3.45 kPa).
The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its main manual
•
shut-off valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures
equal to or less than 14" water column (1/2 psi or 3.45 kPa).
F. Water Connections for the SteamChef
1. Water Supply Quality Requirements
a. Contact your Cleveland Range sales representative for details on how to provide water per
Minimum Water Quality Requirements in the Warranty, or how to increase the frequency of
maintenance, cleaning, and descaling.
b. Poor water supply quality degrades SteamChef performance.
c. Check the quality of supply water before designing the water supply by contacting a local water
treatment specialist for on-premises water analysis.
d. Softened or chlorinated water damages the water reservoir by increasing corrosion. Carbon type
filters are required before water enters the water reservoir if supply water is softened or
chlorinated.
e. If a water treatment system must be installed to achieve acceptable water quality, install it
BEFORE connecting the water supply lines to a SteamChef.
f. If analysis shows that supply water is below Minimum Water Quality:
EITHER a water treatment system and/or carbon filter must be installed in the line feeding
•
the water reservoir,
• OR the frequency of maintenance, cleaning, and descaling must be increased beyond that
recommended in the maintenance schedule.
2. Connection of the Water Supply Lines
The Installer/Owner is responsible for the correct water connection of the SteamChef.
•
When connecting water supply lines observe the following instructions, and any and all other
•
applicable national, state, and local codes and regulations.
•
NOTICE: Connect the SteamChef to COLD WATER!
• Never connect the SteamChef to HOT WATER! The Condenser and the water reservoir system
will not work properly if connected to HOT or WARM water.
a. The water supply must have a minimum dynamic (flow) pressure of 35 psi (2.4 kg/cm²)
and a maximum static pressure of 60 psi (4.1 kg/cm²).
b. If the static pressure is above 60 psi, a pressure regulator must be used and set at
approximately 50 psi. Pressure above 60 psi can damage solenoid valves.
c. SteamChefs have two connection points for incoming water: condenser, and water reservoir fill.
d. If the water supply meets requirements shown in the Warranty then the Single Water Supply
Arrangement shown in Figure 3-4 may be used.
NOTICE
Using water outside the limits specified in the Warranty
without appropriate adjustment in the maintenance
schedule voids warranty coverage.
