SAFETY VALVE
The Safety Valve is set to automatically relieve the cooking
compartment of excessive pressure build-ups by opening at a point
between 15 1/2 Ibs and 16 Ibs
CHECKING SAFETY VALVE
If the Safety Valve should leak continually with a pressure build-up,
or should it cause an interruption of the cooking cycle prematurely
(less than 15'/2 Ibs on the steam gauge), it must be determined to
be defective and be replaced However, the steam gauge should first
be checked for accuracy before making this determination The
steam gauge should register absolute zero with no pressure in the
cooking cylinder If the normal zero setting has advanced somewhat
through usage (a characteristic of steam gauges), the amount of
advancement from absolute zero must be subtracted from its
registered reading to determine the true steam pressure
THE FLUE
The Flue serves as a protection shield for the Steam Trap (B) Safety
Valve (A) Exhaust Valve (D) as well as a front-facing mount for the
Steam Gauge (E) As servicing of these parts may at times require
the removal of the flue, an exploded view drawing is provided to
show their proper relative positions within the flue and the method of
their assembly to the cooking cylinder
TO REMOVE THE FLUE
1 Unscrew and remove the exhaust silencer (F)
2 Detach the 3/16" copper tube connector (C) from the Steam
Gauge (E) at the ferrule nearest the steam gauge Then, remove
the copper tube entirely by freeing it at the other ferrule
3 Apply inward pressure at either sides of the Flue at points (1) and
(2) with a screwdriver This will collapse the side walls slightly to
allow the small fluted sections of sheet metal to clear the edges
of the flue opening provided in the outer shell of the Steam-It
With the restrictions of the flutes removed, the Flue may then be
lifted up over the parts it houses
4 To replace the Flue reverse the above steps
STEAM GAUGE
Located at the top rear of the Steam-It and mounted into the
forward face of the flue for visibility, the Steam Gauge registers the
pressure within the Steam-It cooking chamber To replace this unit it
is necessary to disconnect the 3/16" copper tube connector and
remove the two nuts holding the gauge framework in place
STEAM TRAP
The Steam Trap is located within the flue at the top rear of the
Steam-It It has the very important automatic, dual function of
exhausting all cold air from the cooking compartment and of making
a suitable seal to allow a pressure build-up of live steam during the
cooking cycle Failure of this unit to operate properly will result in
uneven cooking
HOW IT WORKS
With the introduction of steam into the cooking compartment, the
cold air escapes through the Steam Trap When sufficient generated
steam dispalces the cold air it passes through the Steam Trap and
the thermostatic element becomes heated and expands to ' make a
seal against the seat This action encloses the live steam within the
cooking compartment and allows a steam pressure build-up to
occur
TROUBLE TESTS AND REMEDIES
the first indication of defective Steam Trap operation will usually be
evidenced by uneven cooking If working properly, the steam
temperature will be even and cooking will be uniform through the
cooking compartment Trouble may occur either through premature
closing of the Steam Trap before all the cold air has been
exhausted or by its failure to close sufficiently to enable a proper
steam pressure build-up Either case warrants the replacement of
the Steam Trap
