OVERVIEW OF OPERATION
INTRODUCTION
The ACCU-STEAM G2™ griddle is constructed and uses technology like no other griddle in the world.
(See Fig.1) The stainless steel cooking surface is heated by steam. The griddle steam chamber
requires no additional liquid or maintenance. A temperature sensor to sense temperature and an
over-temperature safety shutdown system are part of the griddle assembly. At temperatures below
212°F. (100°C), the chamber is actually in a vacuum, similar to that of a canning jar. At temperatures
above 212°F (100°C), the chamber operates under pressure. The temperature sensor senses
the temperature of the steam and reports this data to the temperature control electronics, which
energizes the heating system. This system maintains the griddle cooking surface temperatures to
within ± 5°F (2.7°C) over the entire cooking surface and provides a near instant temperature recovery,
even in the same spot on the griddle, when turning food in place. (See Fig. 2)
