The Blodgett Combi-Oven/Steamer
The Blodgett Combi-Oven/Steamer o󰀨ers a completely
new method of cooking. With the Oven/Steamer you have
the choice of two cooking processes: Steam and Hot Air,
either...
• Separately
• Combined, or
• In Sequence
And for easy operation you can choose from three modes:
In the Steam mode you can:
steam reheat reconstitute
stew thaw simmer
blanche preserve braise
poach
In the Hot Air mode you can:
roast bake grill
gratinate broil
In the Combination Steam and Hot Air mode you can:
defrost roast rethermalize
reheat bake forced steam
We suggest utilizing combi mode and switching to
hot air mode with the vent open for the nal 1-3 min-
utes depending on the product.
There are four additional specialized modes to help you:
Retherm - for perfect reheating
Proong - Proof and bake all in the same oven
Preheat - in this mode the oven will preheat to 575ºF
(300ºC) for 15 minutes. The oven will then automatically
lower to 480ºF (249ºC) to protect the advanced elec-
tronic components.
Cool Down - allows the oven cavity to cool down rapidly
with the door opened
You can also use two or three functions in se-
quence during one cooking process. We call this:
• combi-steaming
• combi-roasting
• combi-baking
The combination of circulating hot air and steam in the
space saving, high performance Combi-Oven/Steamer
leads to improvements in the following areas:
• increased productivity in the kitchen
• a reduction in capital expenditures for multiple equip-
ment replacement
• a wider range of menu choices
• a simplied cleaning process
The work process is simplied since products are pre-
pared on or in steam table pans and trays. Food can be
cooked, stored, and transported with the same pans.
Small amounts of product can be processed e󰀩ciently;
pre-cooked and convenience foods can be reheated with-
in minutes. Many frozen foods can be processed with-
out pre-thawing. This exibility in preparation reduces the
need for kettles and steam tables since there is no need
for large amounts of food to be kept warm for long periods
of time.
Today the improvement of food quality is more important
than ever. Vegetables are cooked in the Blodgett Combi-
Oven/Steamer without water at the optimal temperature
of just under 212ºF (100ºC), maintaining valuable vita-
mins, minerals, nutrients and trace elements. Cooking
meat in the Combi results in less shrinkage and a rmer,
juicier product. The Blodgett Combi-Oven/Steamer is be-
ing used more and more for baking. Steam and Hot Air
modes make it a general purpose baking appliance.

Description of the Combi-Oven/Steamer
ABOUT THE OVEN/STEAMER
Blodgett Combi-Oven/Steamers are quality produced us-
ing high-grade stainless steel with rst class workman-
ship.
The multiple speed fan, which is guarded against acci-
dental nger contact, is driven by a quiet and powerful
motor. The condenser draws out excess steam from the
appliance. Condensation and waste water, which result
during steaming and cleaning, are continuously drained.
The use of high quality insulation impedes excessive heat
radiation and saves energy.
The BLCT-6E-H, BLCT-10E-H, BLCT-61E-H, BLCT-62E-
H and BLCT-101E-H make it possible to enjoy all of the
advantages of a high quality steamer at the ick of a
switch. Fresh steam enters the oven cavity without pres-
sure and is circulated at high speed. This process en-
ables quick and gentle cooking and ensures high quality
food while providing convenient working methods.
OVEN/STEAMER OPERATION
The practical oven door, with a viewing window, has a
wide swing radius and handle which can be operated eas-
ily, even with wet or greasy hands.
Ease of operation is guaranteed through the simple to use
control. With graphical symbols and recipe storage the
ovens are easy for even inexperienced kitchen sta󰀨 to
operate.
Cleaning is kept to a minimum thanks to the automatic
Combi Wash system.

Installation
Oven Location and Leveling
The well planned and proper placement of your oven will
result in long term operator convenience and satisfactory
performance.
Certain minimum clearances must be maintained be-
tween the oven and any combustible or non-combustible
construction.
MINIMUM REQUIRED CLEARANCES
Sides Back Top
2.75”
(70mm)
2.75”
(70mm)
0”
(0mm)
In addition, the following clearances are recommended
for servicing.
• Oven body sides - 12” (30cm)
• Oven body back - 12” (30cm)
• Oven body top - 12” (30cm)
• Do not place strong sources of heat such as open
ame ranges, griddles, or charbroilers near the oven.
If such an instance exists, it is highly recommended
to purchase a heat shield, available from Blodgett.
• Note that if temperatures are too high, a safety shut-
down may occur.
• Failure to comply may invalidate the oven warranty.
To ensure that the oven functions correctly when installed,
it should be placed upright and level (horizontally). This is
measured at the front and side edge of the roof. The oven
can be levelled using the adjusting screws on the stand or
on the legs of table models.

WARNING!!
The water connections must be carried out
by an authorized plumber in accordance with
existing local codes.
Clogged up water lters and dirt in the sole-
noid valves are not covered by the warranty.
Cold water connection only.
To facilitate cleaning and servicing, the oven should be
connected with an approved exible 3/4” hose. Perma-
nent installations should be tted with a stop-tap and a
non-return valve.
Before connecting the oven to water, ush the tubes
thoroughly. Connect the oven.
DRAIN CONNECTION
Blodgett ovens are equipped with a drain system that re-
moves surplus water from the oven chamber. This may
be condensed water from the products, or it may occur
when the oven chamber is cooled down with cold water,
or when the oven chamber is cleaned.
NOTE: The drain piping must consist of temperature
resistant material, greater than 160°F, and be
of adequate diameter not to cause ow restric-
tion. Improper materials may deform and cause
restrictions, thus aecting performance.
External Trap
The oven is provided with an external drain trap. It is
crucial that this part is installed on the oven. If not,
the oven will not function as intended.
WARNING!!
Connection must be carried out by a licensed
plumber, to an open or closed drain. The drain
must never end directly beneath the equip-
ment. The drain should not be located on the
same side the equipment controls are located.
The drain must be of stainless steel or an equally tem-
perature-resistant material, have a diameter of at least
1.5” (38 mm) and a fall of at least 3° or 5%.
