THEORY OF OPERATION
INTRODUCTION
The ACCU-STEAM™ griddle is constructed and uses technology like no other griddle in the
world. The diagram below is a cross-sectional view of the griddle. The griddle cooking surface
is the top of a chamber in which we have produced a unique environment. Welded stainless steel
reinforcement studs connect the chamber top to the chamber bottom. The perimeter joints are
all robotically welded to produce a vessel that is airtight, which is veried using a helium mass
spectrometer. The chamber is lled half full with distilled water. The remaining air is removed
and the chamber is welded shut. At this point, the chamber becomes a hermetically sealed vessel,
never to be opened again. The griddle steam chamber requires no water or maintenance. A
thermowell for a temperature sensor to sense temperature and a thermowell for the overtemp
safety shutdown system are also welded into the griddle steam chamber.
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. Located
between the water and the bottom of the cooking surface is the best heat transfer medium –
steam, the most effective way to transfer heat. The temperature sensor senses the temperature
of the steam and reports this data to the thermostat, which energizes the heating elements. 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.

INSTALLATION
TABLE TOP/STAND MODEL - EGF SERIES
LOCATION AND PLACEMENT
The AccuTemp ACCU-STEAM™ electric griddle has been designed to be placed on a
commercial kitchen counter-top, an AccuTemp griddle stand or directly onto any at, level
surface.
The operating temperature ranges from 200°- 400°F (93°- 204°C). Since these temperatures can
also be found on surfaces around the perimeter of the griddle, care should be given not to install
griddle next to or against, objects or surfaces with a low melting or ash point.
LEVELING
The griddle must be installed in a level condition. An out-of-level condition may cause uneven
temperatures and in server out of level condition damage to the griddle that may not be covered
by warranty. Use a spirit level resting on the griddle surface to ensure it is level front-to-back and
left-to-right.
Table Top
Install the (4) rubber foot tips provided with your griddle onto the four foot adjusters of each of
the griddle legs. This will keep the griddle from sliding on the counter-top under normal use.
Once the rubber foot tips have been installed, adjust the four foot adjusters up or down as needed
to level the griddle.
ACCUTEMP STAND
If on an AccuTemp™ stand with casters, ensure that the oor surface is level and place the
two locking casters to the “on” position and follow the leveling instructions to verify the the
appliance is level.
IN-FIELD MODIFICATIONS
This griddle has a totally unique design and is constructed unlike any other griddle on the market
today. Any modication may permanently damage the griddle.
Only a qualied service or electrician should complete the installation to ensure that all
eletrical and safety requirements are met and that all wiring is installed as per all National,
State and Local electrical codes.
WARNING
This appliance is heavy. For safe handling, the installer should obtain help as needed or
employ appropriate material handling equipment to remove the appliance from the skid
and move into the nal destination.
WARNING
Any in eld modications made without written authorization from AccuTemp™ will void
all warranties

INSTALLATION
This appliance must be properly grounded, In accordance with all the National, State and
local electrical codes.
WARNING
ELECTRICAL SUPPLY
The ACCU-STEAM™ griddle has been designed, manufactured and tested to meet or exceed
the demanding standards of safety set forth by Underwriters Laboratories, Inc. To ensure that
this high level of safety is maintained in your installation, it is important that you read and
understand the following information before attempting to plug in your griddle.
ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
Electrical requirements are listed on the data plate located on the right side of the unit, near the
front. All standard AccuTemp griddles are supplied with a 6ft (1.83m) cord and the appropriate
UL listed plug. Please note, that the plug is rated for 250VAC. This plug is commonly used for
both 208VAC and 240VAC installations. Make sure that the voltage at your supply receptacle
is within ± 10 % of the voltage listed on the griddle data plate. Connection to any other voltage
may cause damage to components in the griddle and damage of this type is not covered under
warranty.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
Grounding provides a path for electric current to reduce the risk of shock. This product is
equipped with a power cord having a grounding conductor and a grounding plug.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS (MODEL EGF ONLY)
The receptacle requirements vary between models.
If you have purchased a 240 V single-phase model, you will need a NEMA 6-50R
receptacle. If you have purchased 208/240V a three-phase model, you will need a NEMA
15-50R receptacle and if you purchased a 440V/480V three-phase model you will need a
NEMA l16-30R receptacle
These receptacles are congured as shown below.

Introduction
It is highly recommended that a survey of the kitchen site be conducted to determine the
requirements for the installation. Electrical supply, counter space as well as counter arrangement
are critical to the choice of Drop-In-Griddle options. The Drop-In-Griddle is available in many
options to accommodate size, control panel arrangements and supply voltage. The model data
label indicating the model number, phase, voltage, current, wattage and UL information is
located on the bottom cover of the unit.
Counter designs that have an “L” arrangement such that the shortest part of the “L” is to the left
may require a “Right Hand Control Panel” option. A counter design that has an “L” arrangement
such that the shortest part of the “L” is to the right may require a “Left Hand Control Panel”
option. See Figure 1 for views of these congurations.
