INSTALLATION

Introduction

DESCRIPTION:

The ST10-2G series steamer is a pressureless steam 

cooker consisting of two independently controlled com-

partments enclosed in a single cabinet. Each compart-

ment is equipped with a separate heavy duty door with 

inner gasket plate isolated from the exterior surface. Door 

latches operate by action for positive sealing of inner 

door. Operation controls are displayed on a single front-

mounted panel and include separate timers with indicator 

lights for selection of constant steam or 60-minute-long 

duration cooking. Two gas fired, stainless steel genera

-

tors operating at “0” psi (0 kg/cm2) and rated at 95,000 

BTU are located in the bottom cabinet and may be oper-

ated separately.

BASIC FUNCTIONING:

The steamer may be operated with only one compart-

ment in use; or both may be used simultaneously. Each 

compartment is equipped with identical controls, allowing 

selection of constant steam or 60-minute timer operation. 

The cooker becomes operational when it is set to con-

stant steam, or the timer is set at the desired cooking time 

and the compartment door is closed.

When steam flowing inside the compartment has raised 

the interior temperature to 195°F, the contacts of a ther-

mostatic switch close, completing the circuit to the timer 

motor and starting the cooking time period. At the end of 

the set interval, timer contacts switch to shut off the cook-

ing operation and sound a signal buzzer. The buzzer is 

silenced by returning the timer dial to the OFF position. In 

the constant steam mode, operation will be continuous.

Steam  emitted  from  the  compartment  along  with  liquid 

cooking drainage is directed through a drain screen inside 

the compartment into the cooker drain line to the genera-

tor drain box that is automatically actuated by a thermo-

static cooling valve to condense the steam to water prior 

to discharge into the floor drain.
