28.9.2010 Rev. 4.2 Installation 5. Installation 5.1 General Please observe the instructions given in this chapter concerning the installation and ad- justments that must be done before taking the Proveno combi-kettle into use. Strict ob- servance of the instructions prevents malfunctions and damages potentially caused by defective installation.
28.9.2010 Rev. 4.2 Installation • Protect the combi-kettle from sparks produced by welding, grinding and abrasive cutting wheels. These can later cause rust spots on the stainless steel surface of the appliance. 5.1.4 Unpacking the appliance The combi-kettle should be transported in its own package as close as possible to the in- stallation place before final unpacking.
28.9.2010 Rev. 4.2 Installation 5.2.1 Subsurface frame cast into the floor Installation frames are mounted according to the installation drawing, with the help of dis- tance guides supplied with the delivery. The frames must be installed in a horizontal po- sition and fixed so that they do not move during casting.
28.9.2010 Rev. 4.2 Installation 5.2.2 Surface installation frame fixed to the floor Surface frames are mounted according to the installation drawing, with the help of dis- tance guides supplied with the delivery. If the inclination of the floor is very steep, it may be necessary to level the surface frame closer to the horizontal by placing stainless steel spacers between the frame and the floor.
28.9.2010 Rev. 4.2 Installation 5.2.3 Installing the combi-kettle on the frame The front and rear cover plates of the kettle's support and control pillar must be detached before installation. Each plate has been fixed at its lower edge with two screws. The rear plate of the control pillar has, in addition, two screws at the upper edge.

28.9.2010 Rev. 4.2 Installation Support pillar Bearing unit Cover plate Mounting bracket for cover plate Washer + nut Washer + nut Installing the kettle section The kettle can be transferred from its transport pallet onto the installation frame in two different ways.
Page 50
28.9.2010 Rev. 4.2 Installation The second alternative is to transfer the kettle by lifting the kettle section by its left-hand axle and by a lifting bar pushed through the control pillar. The lifting bar is positioned be- low the cross supports, located at the front and rear edge of the control pillar, slightly above the bearings.
Page 51
28.9.2010 Rev. 4.2 Installation Gasket Lock ring Locking screw Next, the control pillar (1) is adjusted by means of the adjusting bolts (3), located on the corners, to a horizontal position and on the same level with the support pillar. When the control pillar (1) is in position, it is fixed to the installation frame (2) with four fixing bolts (4).
28.9.2010 Rev. 4.2 Installation Installing the following kettle section If a kettle group is being installed, proceed as follows: Before installing the next kettle section, remove the bearing cover plate of the kettle al- ready installed. After this, install the bearing unit and the axle lead-through cover plate, supplied with the kettle delivery, exactly in the same way as it was installed on the support pillar.
Page 53
28.9.2010 Rev. 4.2 Installation If the control pillar front plate (1) is in place, it must be first detached by opening two screws (5) at the lower section of the plate. Detach the rear box (6) and the upper rear plate (3) by opening the screws (5). The cable of the lid switch hinders the upper rear plate being detached entirely, but you can move the plate a little aside.
Page 54
28.9.2010 Rev. 4.2 Installation Supply cable Lead-through plate Cable bushing Mains switch N and PE cables Cover plate Detach the cover plate (6) of the mains switch by pulling. Detach the lead-through plate (2) from the rear box. Slip the supply cable (1) through the cable bushing (3) of the lead- through plate and upwards via the lead-through of the electrical box further to the mains switch (4).
28.9.2010 Rev. 4.2 Installation The correct rotation direction is anticlockwise viewed from the motor's cooling fan end. An arrow indicating the rotation direction is fixed to the motor on the same side where the connection box is located. If the rotation direction in two foregoing points is wrong, two phases of the supply cable coming to the mains switch have to be exchanged.
28.9.2010 Rev. 4.2 Installation • All water connections are of size Ø15mm (R 1/2"). • Water conductivity should be below 1000µS/cm. Already when the conductivity is over 500µS/cm, a water analysis is recommended. • Maximum chloride concentration allowed is less than 60 mg/l. •...
28.9.2010 Rev. 4.2 Installation 5.6 Ventilation The heat and steam load of the kettle must be taken into account in the kitchen's ventila- tion plan. A ventilation hood must be installed above the kettle, because plenty of steam is released when the kettle lid is opened. When dimensioning the ventilation hood, the space requirement for opening the lid must be taken into account (see installation draw- ing).
28.9.2010 Rev. 4.2 Installation Tilting lever Mounting plate of limit switches Limit switch for cooking position Limit switch of tilting end position Locking nut for adjustment Fixing nut for bearing unit and limit switch plate 5.8.2 Fastening the mixer motor cover box On the large kettle models (Proveno 150, 200, 300, 400), the cover box of the mixing mo- tor comes unattached inside the kettle.
28.9.2010 Rev. 4.2 Installation 5.9.2 Checking the safety block It is the responsibility of the user to check the safety block of the combi-kettle four times a year. Ask a qualified person to carry out the check as follows: • Open the safety valve while the kettle is pressurized by lifting the safety valve le- ver.

28.9.2010 Rev. 4.2 Adjustment instructions 6. Adjustment instructions 6.1 Setting customer specific parameters By setting the customer specific parameter it is possible to modify certain functions of the Proveno combi-kettle to better suit a kitchen’s or customer’s individual needs. In general, the preset factory settings are well suited to most users, so the settings need only be mod- ified to meet the special conditions or modes of operation in a kitchen.
