The TDB and TDBC units are table top, tilting, steam jacketed kettle with an elec-
tronically controlled, self-contained, electrically-heated steam supply and appro-
priate controls, mounted on a sturdy base. The kettle is available in20, 24, 40 or 
48 quart (18.8, 22.6, 37.6 or 45.3 liters) capacities.
The body of the 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 working pressures up to 50 psi (345 kPa, 3.45 bar). 
Kettle finish is 180 emery grit on the inside and bright semi-deluxe on the outside. 
A tilt handle on the TDB and a hand wheel crank on the TDBC kettle allows the op-
erator to manually tilt the kettle body in a controlled manner. Pour height accepts 
pans up to 4 “ (10 cm) high on a table top.

A built-in steam generator, sized for the kettle capacity and heated by electric-
ity, delivers steam into the jacket. “Airless” operation of the steam jacket permits 
uniform, efficient heating at temperatures as low as 150°F (65.5°C) and as high 
as 295°F (146°C). In addition to the electronic temperature control, the unit has a 
tilt cut-off switch, low water cut-off, safety 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. The unit may be ordered 
for use with 230 VAC, 1 Phase, 50 Hz, or 400 VAC, 3 Phase, 50 Hz power.
