Equipment Description
The Groen TDB is a table top, tilting, steam
jacketed kettles with a thermostatically
controlled, self-contained, electrically-heated
steam supply and appropriate controls, mounted
on a sturdy base. Model TDB is available in 20
or 40 - quart capacity.
The body of the TDB Kettle is constructed of
stainless steel, welded into one solid piece. The
kettle is furnished with a reinforced rim and a
butterfly shaped pouring lip. It has a steam jacket
rated for a design pressure of 50 PSIG. Kettle
finish is 180 emery grit on the inside and bright
semi-deluxe on the outside. A tilt handle on the
TDB kettle allows the operator to manually tilt the
kettle body in a controlled manner. Pouring
height accepts pans up to four inches high on a
table top.
A built-in steam generator, sized for the kettle
capacity and heated by electricity, delivers steam
into the jacket. “Airless” operation of the steam
jacket permits uniform, efficient heating at
temperatures as low as 150°F and as high as
295°F. In addition to the adjustable thermostat
for operating control, the unit has a tilt cut-off
switch, low water cut-off, pressure relief valve,
and high-limit pressure switch as safety features.
A heating indicator light, pressure gauge, and
sight glass are provided for monitoring kettle
operation.
A single electrical connection is required for
installation.
