Operation - Groen TDB/7 Operator's And Service Manual

OM/SM-TDB/7(CE)
CE units have three lights on the Control Panel. The
"POWER" light comes on when the the unit is turned
on. It indicates that power is being supplied to the unit.
The "HEAT" light comes on when heating elements are
heating the kettle. The "LOW WATER" light will come
on when the water level in the jacket falls below
acceptable operating levels. Refer to "Jacket Filling and
Water Treatment" on Page 14.
On most TDB/7 units the jacket water level is shown
in a sight glass, right on the kettle.

Operation

A. To Start Kettle
1. EVERY DAY make sure that the jacket water
level is above the mid-point of the round
sight glass. If the level is low, service is
necessary.
2. Check the pressure gauge. If the gauge does
not show 20 to 30 inches of vacuum (i.e., a
reading of 20 to 30 below 0), see "Jacket
Vacuum" on page 14.
3. Turn on the electrical power to the unit.
4. Turn the thermostat dial to the desired
setting. The heating indicator light indicates
that the kettle is heating, and cycling of the
light on and off indicates that the kettle is
being held at the set temperature. Once in
each cycle the contactors in the support
housing will make a clicking sound. This is
normal.
B. To Transfer Product or Empty Kettle
The kettle is designed and manufactured to be
tilted in a controlled manner. On those units
equipped with a tilt handle, grasp the insulated
plastic ball firmly. Maintain a firm grip on handle
when tilting, while keeping kettle body in a tilted
position and when SLOWLY returning the kettle
body to an upright position. On those equipped
with crank tilt, turn the handle. The kettle will
remain in the position to which tilted until cranked
again.
