OM-KPT/KLT-DS 7
All Models
1. Installation under a ventilation hood is recommended. Consult local codes.
2. Install and anchor the kettle on a level surface.
3. If the steam supply pressure is greater than the maximum working pressure
stamped on the nameplate, you must install a pressure reducing valve in the
steam supply line near the kettle.
4. Connect the steam supply line to the steam inlet fitting. Include a steam control
valve and an appropriate safety valve. To obtain the full heating capability of the
kettle, the steam supply line must be as large as the steam inlet fitting.
5. The safety valve is preset to relieve jacket pressure that exceeds its rated limit.
Do not try to adjust the valve setting, and do not allow the valve outlet or lever to
be blocked.
6. Connect the kettle condensate return line to the boiler return line, or to a drain. A
suitable steam trap, strainer, and check valve must be installed.
7. Any mechanical change must be approved by the Food Service Engineering
Department.
Floor-Mounted Models

legs securely to the floor.
2. Apply a continuous bead of clear silicone sealant (No. 732 or equivalent) to the
junction between the pedestal or leg flange and the surface, as shown in the
illustration at left. Fill all cracks and crevices, and wipe excess away.
