EQUIPMENT DESCRIPTION
The DEE/4 is a floor-mounted, tilting, steam jacketed kettle with an electronically
controlled, self-contained, electrically-heated steam supply and appropriate con-
trols, mounted on a sturdy base. The kettle is available in 20, 40 or 60 gallon
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. Kettle finish is 180
emery grit on the inside and bright semi-deluxe on the outside.
The kettle can be tilted with a hand crank to pour out its contents. Stainless steel
panels enclose the controls and the base. Four stainless steel, tubular legs support
the unit. Bullet feet on each of the legs can be adjusted to level the kettle.
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 and as high as 298°F.
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 208/240, 400 or 480 volt power. All kettles are wired for three-phase
operation. Single-phase units are also available.

positioning the tip at the center of the food mass, avoiding any bones.
If placing into a semi-liquid or liquid product, occasionally stirring the
product will ensure an accurate core probe reading. Do not let the core
probe tip touch the edges, bottom or side of the unit.
c. If the core probe is not plugged into the receptacle when either the AUTO
C2T or MANUAL C2T button is pressed then an audible alarm along with
a core probe error message will notify the user that attention is required.
Simply plug the core probe into the receptacle and continue with the input
process.
d. If the core probe is unplugged from the receptacle during the cooking
process or while in Hold Mode an audible alarm along with a core probe
error message will notify the user that attention is required. Simply plug
the core probe back into the receptacle and the cook process or Hold
Mode will continue.
e. While the core probe is not in use ensure the sealing cap is properly
protecting the panel mount connector. Failure to properly use the sealing
cap could result in damage to the unit.
OPERATING PROCEDURE
1. To Start Kettle Heating with Classic Controls:
a. EVERY DAY make sure that the jacket water level in the middle of the sight
glass. If the level is too low, see “Jacket Filling and Water Treatment” in
this manual.
b. Check the pressure/vacuum gauge. If the gauge does not show 20 to
30 inches of mercury (Hg) vacuum (that is a reading of 20 to 30 below 0
atmospheric pressure), see “Jacket Vacuum” in this manual.
c. Turn on the electrical power to the unit.
d. Turn on the main power switch on the control face.
e. Turn the temperature knob to the desired setting. The heating indicator
light indicates that the kettle is heating, and cycling of the on and off
indicates that the kettle is being held at the set temperature. Once in each
cycle the contactors in the support housing will make a clicking sound.
This is normal.
2. To Start Kettle Heating with Advanced or Cook2Temp Controls:
a. EVERY DAY make sure the jacket water level is above the mid-point of the
round sight glass. If the level is too low, see “Jacket Filling” and “Water
Treatment” in this manual.
b. Check the pressure gauge. If the gauge does not show 20-30 inches of
vacuum (that is, a reading of 20 to 30 below 0), see “Jacket Filling” and
“Water Treatment” in this manual.
c. Turn on the electrical power to the unit.
d. Turn on the main power switch on the control face, controller will show
SET TnnP in the display.
e. Press the MANUAL button and turn the temperature knob to the desired
setting using the display (if a temperature is not selected after the MANUAL
button is pressed, the kettle will default to a heat setting of 5.0). The
heating indicator light indicates that the kettle is heating, and cycling of
the on and off indicates that the kettle is being held at the set temperature.
Once in each cycle the contactors in the support housing will make a
clicking sound. This is normal.
3. To Transfer Product or Empty Kettle:
a. To tilt the body of the kettle forward, turn the hand crank on the front of the
cabinet counter-clockwise.The body will stay in the position it holds when
you stop cranking. To return the kettle body to its upright position, turn the
crank clockwise.
b. Product may also be transferred by means of the optional draw-off valve,
if the kettle is so equipped.
4. To Stop Kettle Heating:
a. Turn temperature dial to OFF.
b. For a prolonged shut-down:
1) Follow the procedure above.
2) Disconnect electric power from the unit.
USE OF COMMON ACCESSORIES
1. Lift-Off or Counterbalanced Cover:
a. As with stock pot cooking, an optional cover can speed up the heating of
water and food products. It helps retain heat and reduces the heat and
humidity in the kitchen. A cover can reduce some product cook times
and help maintain the temperature, color and texture of products held or
simmered for longer periods.
b. Be sure the handle is secure on the lift-off cover before using. ALWAYS use
the handle to place or remove cover from the kettle. Wear protective oven
mitts and apron.

7 OM-DEES(T)-40(C,A,C2T™) Domestic
c. When putting the cover on the kettle, position it on top of kettle rim, with
its flat edge facing the pouring lip.
d. When removing cover:
1) Firmly grasp plastic handle.
2) Lift rear edge (farthest from operator) 1-2” (3-5 cm) to allow any steam
and water vapor to escape the cooking vessel. Wait 2-3 seconds.
3) Tilt cover to 45-60° angle and allow any hot condensate or product to
roll off cover back into kettle.
4) Remove cover, ensuring that any remaining hot condensate or product
does not drip on operator, floor or work surfaces.
5) Place cover on safe, flat, sanitary, out-of-the-way surface, or return to
kettle rim.
2. Basket Insert
An optional kettle basket insert can assist in cooking water-boiled products
including eggs, potatoes, vegetables, shell fish, pasta and rice.The nylon mesh
liner must be used when cooking product smaller than the mesh size of the
basket, which is approximately 1/4” (6 mm).This includes rice and small pasta
shapes. Tips for use:
a. Allow for the water displacement of the basket and product to be cooked.
This may mean only filling the kettle half full of water. Test the basket
and product displacement with the kettle OFF, and with cold water in the
kettle.
b. Load baskets on a level, stable work surface.
c. Lift loaded baskets with both hands. Get help from another person if the
basket is too heavy for safe handling.
d. Slowly lower product into kettle.
e. When removing baskets with cooked product, lift straight up, ensuring
basket bottoms clear the kettle rim and pouring lip. Wear protective oven
mitts and protective apron.
f. Allow hot water to fully drain from product before moving basket away
from the kettle. Do not rest baskets on kettle rim or pouring lip. If baskets
are too heavy for individual to lift and safely move, get help. Remove
product immediately from basket into another container, being sure to
avoid contact with hot product and hot basket or...
g. Place baskets with food on a stable, flat surface, inside a solid steamer or
bake pan,to catch any remaining hot water draining from product.

MAINTENANCE
WARNING: AVOID ANY EXPOSURE TO THE STEAM BLOWING OUT OF THE PRESSURE
RELIEF VALVE. SEVERE BURNS CAN RESULT ON EXPOSED SKIN. FAILURE
TO CHECK PRESSURE RELIEF VALVE OPERATION PERIODICALLY COULD
RESULT IN PERSONAL INJURY AND/OR DAMAGE TO EQUIPMENT.
CAUTION: KEEP GREASE AWAY FROM ELECTRICAL PARTS LOCATED NEAR THE
GEARS.
WARNING: TO AVOID INJURY, READ AND FOLLOW ALL PRECAUTIONS STATED ON THE
LABEL OF THE WATER TREATMENT COMPOUND.
WARNING: USE OF ANY REPLACEMENT PARTS OTHER THAN THOSE SUPPLIED BY
THE MANUFACTURER OR THEIR AUTHORIZED DISTRIBUTORS CAN CAUSE
INJURY TO THE OPERATOR AND DAMAGE TO THE EQUIPMENT AND WILL
VOID ALL WARRANTIES.
CAUTION: INSURE ELECTRICAL POWER IS REMOVED AND THE GAS IS TURNED OFF AT
THE SHUTOFF VALVE PRIOR TO PERFORMING ANY MAINTENANCE ON THIS
KETTLE.
WARNING: THIS KETTLE IS DESIGNED TO BE WATER RESISTANT. FAILURE TO FOLLOW
PROPER MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES MAY VOID THE WARRANTY.
The pressure gauge should show a vacuum of 20 to
30 inches when the kettle is cold.
The open end of the pressure relief valve
elbow must face downward.
Add grease through Zerk Fittings.
Liberally grease the wheel where
it contacts the worm gear.
Safety Valve Pressure Gauge
Test the safety valve at least twice monthly.
Check Valve Pipe Plug
PERIODIC MAINTENANCE
NOTICE: Contact an authorized representative when repairs are required.
A Maintenance & Service Log is provided at the back of this manual. Each time
maintenance is performed on your kettle, enter the date on which the work was
done, what was done, and who did it. Keep this manual on file and available
for operators to use. Periodic inspection will minimize equipment down time and
increase the efficiency of operation. The following points should be checked:
[BY OPERATOR]
1. Check the pressure/vacuum gauge every day. The gauge should show a
vacuum of 20 to 30 inches, when the kettle is cold. If it does not, see “Jacket
Vacuum” in this manual.
2. Also check the jacket water level every day. It should be between the marks
on the gauge glass. If the level is low, see “Jacket Filling and Water Treatment”
in this manual.
3. Carefully test the pressure relief valve at least twice each month. With the
kettle operating at 15 psi (105 kPa),pull the test lever and let it snap back to its
closed position. If there is little discharge (mostly air), and the pressure gauge
drops back to zero PSI, allow the pressure to build back to five PSI and repeat
the procedure. (Tip: Using a screwdriver or other implement to pull the ring will
help you avoid contact with the steam.
[BY SERVICE TECHNICIAN]
4. Electrical wiring should be kept securely connected and in good condition.
5. The inside of the support housing should be kept clean.
6. The gear housing has fittings for lubrication of moving parts. The gears do not
run in oil, so periodic lubrication with grease is necessary.
7. Frequency of lubrication depends on operating conditions, but it should be
done at least once every six months.
8. Use a #2 grade LGI lithium grease to add grease through Zerk fittings on gear
housing until it flows out of the bearings around the trunnion shaft.
9. Place liberal amounts of grease on the gear to cover the arc that is in contact
with the worm gear.
10. Keep electrical wiring and connections in good condition.
11. Keep the inside of the control console clean and dry.
JACKET VACUUM/REMOVING AIR FROM JACKET
When the kettle is cold, a positive pressure reading on the pressure/vacuum gauge
or a reading near zero indicates that there is air in the jacket. Air in the jacket acts
as an insulator, and slows kettle heating.
To remove air:
1. Start the unit. (Be sure there is water or product in the kettle when heating).
2. When the pressure/vacuum gauge reaches a positive pressure reading of five
PSI, release the trapped air and steam by pulling up the safety valve ring for
about five seconds. Repeat this step three or four times. Then let the pull ring
snap back into the closed position.
3. If there is little discharge (mostly air), and the pressure gauge drops back to
zero PSI, allow the pressure to build back to five PSI and repeat the procedure.
4. Once steam has been vented from the jacket as described in b, above, remove
the hot water from the kettle and replace it with cold. This will condense steam
in the kettle jacket, and the pressure gauge should show a reading of 20 to
30 inches mercury (Hg) below zero. If it does not, or if the vacuum is leaking
down, contact an authorized service agency to correct the problem.
PRESSURE RELIEF VALVE
At least twice a month, test the pressure relief valve. Test the valve with the kettle
operating at 15 PSI (105 kPa), by holding the test ring for at least five seconds.Then
release the ring and permit the valve to snap shut. If the ring does not activate, if
there is no discharge, or if the valve leaks, stop using the kettle immediately and
contact a authorized service representative.

9 OM-DEES(T)-40(C,A,C2T™) Domestic
JACKET FILLING
The jacket was charged at the factory with the proper amount of treated water.
You may need to restore this water, either because it was lost as venting steam or
by draining. If you are replacing water lost as steam, use distilled water. If you are
replacing treated water that ran out of the jacket, prepare more treated water as
directed in “Water Treatment Procedure,” below.
1. Allow the kettle to cool completely. The procedure will be easier with the kettle
under vacuum (pressure gauge reading below zero).
2. Allow the kettle to cool completely. Remove the pipe plug from the jacket fill
assembly. Pour in the distilled or treated water. Using a funnel will help you
in this process. Hold the pressure relief valve open while you pour, to let air
escape from the jacket. Continue adding water until the water level rises to the
center of the round sight glass.
3. Position a funnel in the opening and fill it with properly treated water.
4. Air that gets into the jacket during the filling operation must be removed,
because it will make heating less efficient. Follow the procedure in Jacket
Vacuum/Removing Air From Jacket above, to restore a negative pressure
reading.
WATER TREATMENT
1. Obtain water treatment compound and a pH test kit from your authorized parts
distributor.
2. Fill a mixing container with the measured amount of water required. (See
table). Distilled water is recommended.
Kettle Model Jacket Capacity
DEE/4-20(C,A,C2T) 3-1/4 Gallons (12.3 liters)
DEE/4-40(C,A,C2T) 4-1/2 Gallons (17.0 liters)
DEE/4-60(C,A,C2T) 5 Gallons (18.9 liters)
3. Hang a strip of pH test paper on the rim of the container, with about 1 inch of
the strip below the surface of the water.
4. Measure the water treatment compound (One way to do this is to add the
compound from a measuring cup.)
5. Stir the water continuously, while you slowly add water treatment compound,
until the water reaches a pH between 10.5 and 11.5. Judge the pH by
frequently comparing the test strip color with the color chart provided in the pH
test kit. If you are color blind use an electroanalytical instrument to measure
the pH level or have a person who is not color blind read the test strip color
level.
6. Record the exact amounts of water and treatment compound used. These
amounts may be used again, if the same water sources and compound are
used in the future. However, it is best to check the pH each time treated water
is prepared.
SEQUENCE OF OPERATION
The following “action-reaction” outline is provided to help understand how the
kettle works.
When the operator starts up the kettle by turning the power switch “ON” and
heat knob from “OFF” to a desired setting, the control relay closes. This lights up
the heating indicator light and causes the contactors to close, allowing power to
flow to heating elements.
When the temperature of the steam jacket reaches the value corresponding to
the heat setting, the control relay opens. This turns off the heating indicator light
and causes the contactors to open, stopping the power to the heaters.
As soon as the controller senses that the kettle is cooling below the set point, the
control relay closes, the heating indicator light comes on, the contactors close,
and the heaters come on again. On-off cycling continues, keeping the kettle at
the set temperature.
This is why the heating indicator light cycles on and off during normal operation.
Every time the kettle is tilted, the tilt cut-off switch interrupts the power supply to
the heaters, so that the heating elements will not operate while not submerged
in the jacket water.
If steam pressure greater than 50 PSI is generated in the jacket, the safety valve
will open and relieve the excess pressure.
If the jacket water level gets too low before the heating elements overheat, the high-
limit control will open and shut off power to the elements until the kettle cools.
Setting the power switch dial to “OFF” shuts down all control and heating
circuits.
The kettle has the following safety features:
1. Low water cutoff relay that will remove power from control and contactors
until the jacket water level is corrected.
2. High limit pressure switch, set to open at about 46 PSI and to shut down the
heat until jacket pressure is decreased.
3. Pressure relief valve, which will release steam if jacket pressure exceeds 50 PSI.
4. Tilt switch, which shuts off all heat when the kettle is tilted.
