Introduction

Description
Models EC-6TW-L (6 gallon capacity) and EC-10TW-L (10 gallon capacity) and EC- 12TW-L (12 gallon capacity) electrically powered, self-contained, countertop, tilting kettles. Each model has a jacket of double-wall construction forming a sealed reservoir around the lower two-thirds of the kettle. The reservoir is charged with distilled water. Kettles are equipped with a removable electric heating element and controls, including a low water cutoff device for protection of the heating element. All models are of identical construction, except for kettle size and element heating capacity.

Basic Function
Self-contained kettles operate by generating steam in the kettle reservoir. The sequence of operation is as follows:

  1. Operator turns the power switch to the ON position and sets the temperature control dial to the desired temperature setting.

  2. Control circuit is normally completed to the temperature controller if the following conditions exist:
    a) Water level in the kettle reservoir is adequate to prevent circuit interruption by the low water cut-off device. An activated cut-off is indicated by the amber low water light turning on, and the heating element shutoff.
    b) Kettle is in vertical position with circuit completed through the tilt interlock switch.

  3. Thermostat control contacts close to energize contactor coils.

  4. Power is supplied to the elements through closed power contactors.

  5. As the temperature of water rises in the kettle reservoir, increase in steam pressure is indicated on the pressure gauge.

  6. When the temperature of steam in the reservoir reaches the setting of the temperature control dial, the temperature controller opens to break the contacts and shuts off the heating element. On/off cycles will occur as required to maintain temperature setting.

Troubleshooting

General Maintenance
No general maintenance is required other than adhering to the Cleaning Procedure Instructions.

Low Water Level
Proper water level must be maintained within the jacket for the kettle to operate. Depletion of water may occur from excessive opening of, or leakage through the safety relief valve.
If water is below required operating level, either initially at start-up or during use, the kettle will automatically shut off, and the LOW WATER signal light will come on.
In order for the kettle to operate, the following procedure must be followed:

  1. Trip the safety relief valve lever to relieve all pressure from the kettle jacket.
  2. At exterior rear of kettle jacket remove nut from Air Vent.
  3. Insert funnel into Air Vent opening and slowly add the indicated amount of distilled water for:
    Model| Amount of Distilled Watter
    ---|---
    EC-6TW-L| Add 50 oz. (1.5 litres)
    EC-10TW-L and EC-12TW-L| Add 100 oz. (3 litres)
  4. Replace Air Vent nut.
  5. Follow Air Venting Instructions below.
  6. Continue normal Operating Procedure of kettle.

Venting Instruction
Check pressure gauge when kettle is cold. Gauge should be in the green vacuum zone. If not, air is present which must be vented (removed) for proper heating. Use the following procedures to vent air.

  1. With an empty kettle, place power switch to the ON position.
  2. Set temperature control thermostat to maximum. Heat kettle until heat indicator light goes off.
  3. Using a 7/16” wrench, open bleed vent one full turn for 10 seconds and then close.
  4. Cool kettle. Check for proper vacuum in the green vacuum zone. If reading is not low enough, repeat entire procedure, steps 1 to 3.

Safety Valve Maintenance and Testing

CAUTION

  • Under normal operating conditions a “try lever test” should be performed every two months. Under severe service conditions, or if corrosion and/or deposits are noticed within the valve body, testing must be performed more often. A “try lever test” should also be performed at the end of any non-service period.
  • Hot, high pressure fluid may be discharged from body drain and vent during “try lever” test. Care must be taken to avoid any bodily contact.
  • High sound levels may be experienced during “try lever” test. Wear proper safety equipment and exercise extreme care! Test at, or near, half of the operating pressure by holding the test lever fully open for at least two seconds to flush the valve seat free of sediment and debris. Then release lever and permit the valve to snap shut.
  • If lift lever does not activate, or there is no evidence of discharge, turn off equipment immediately and contact a licensed contractor or qualified service personnel.
