INSTALLATION
UNPACKING
This steam cooker was inspected before leaving the
factory. The transportation company assumes full
responsibility for safe delivery upon acceptance of the
shipment. Immediately after unpacking, check for
possible shipping damage. If the cooker is found to be
damaged after unpacking, save the packaging material
and contact the carrier within 15 days of delivery.
Before installing, verify that the gas (natural or propane)
and/or electrical supplies agree with the specifications
on the rating plate which is located on the inside base
cabinet door. If the supply and equipment requirements
do not agree, do not proceed with the installation.
Contact your dealer or Vulcan-Hart immediately.
LOCATION
Position the steamer in its final location. Check that
there are sufficient clearances to service the controls,
for door swings, etc., so there will be no problem in
making the required supply and drain connections.
Recommended clearances are 18" on the sides and
back and 36" in the front.
Allow enough space between any other piece of
equipment or a wall for access. All service on the
compartment controls begins by removing the panel on
the right side of the compartments. Service on the
cabinet base may require the removal of the panel on
either or both the left or right sides.
A floor drain (open gap) is required immediately below
the steamer drain.
An exhaust system should be located directly above
the steamer to exhaust steam and heat generated by
the steamer.
For Gas Powered Steam Generators Only
The equipment area must be kept free and clear of
combustible substances.
The steamer, when installed, must have a minimum
clearance from combustible and noncombustible
construction of 6" at the sides and 6" at the back. It
must be installed on a noncombustible floor. The
installation location must allow adequate clearances
for servicing and proper operation.
The steamer must be installed so that the flow of
combustion and ventilation air will not be obstructed.
Adequate clearance for air openings into the combustion
chamber of the gas cabinet base generator must be
provided. The floor area beneath the burners must be
kept free and clear. Make sure there is an adequate
supply of air in the room to allow for combustion of the
gas at the burners.
When steamers are mounted on casters, you must use
a connector that complies with the Standard for
Connectors of Movable Gas Appliances, ANSI-Z21.69
(latest edition), and a quick-disconnect device that
complies with the Standard for Quick-Disconnect
Devices for Use With Gas Fuel, ANSI-Z21.41 (latest
edition).
Provide a gas line strain relief to limit movement of the
steamer without depending on the connector and/or any
quick-disconnect device or its associated piping to limit
movement of the steamer. Attach the gas line strain
relief to the rear of the steamer (Fig. 1).
Should it be necessary to disconnect the restraint, turn
off the gas supply before disconnection. Reconnect the
restraint before turning the gas supply on and returning
the steamer to its installation position.

LEVELING AND ANCHORING
Using a spirit level, adjust the feet to level the steamer
left-to-right and front-to-back. Steamers should be
elevated in the front just enough (about 1/16" to 1/8") to
give proper drainage. To do this, rotate rear leg
adjusting nut by 1 to 1
1
2 turns clockwise after leveling.
(Check by pouring a little water in the compartment; all
the water should drain.)
The rear feet have holes in the flanges for anchor bolts.
DIRECT STEAM COOKERS (STEAMERS WITHOUT
GENERATORS) MUST BE ANCHORED TO THE
FLOOR.
SERVICE CONNECTIONS (See Fig’s. 2-12)
STEAM CONNECTIONS
Provide dry steam to the inlets. If the steam is heavy
with condensate, install a ball float trap before the
pressure regulator valve. To ensure rapid heat-up of
heavy cold loads, the steam supply line must be sized
to maintain pressure and flow as follows:
Direct Connected Steamers (Fig’s. 2-4)
Supply steam at a pressure of 10-12 psi and at a
minimum flow rate of 50 lb. per hour per compartment.
A pressure reducing valve is furnished and set at 10 psig.
Additional steam kettles and kettle modules can
be interconnected to the steamer. Consult Vulcan-Hart
for recommendations.
Regenerating (Steam Coil) Generators (Fig’s. 5 & 6)
The steam supply to the steam coils must be 15 psi at
a minimum flow rate of 125 lb. per hour to the coil.
GAS CONNECTIONS (Fig’s. 7, 8 & 9)
All gas supply connections and any pipe joint
compound used must be resistant to the action of
propane gases.
Connect gas supply to the gas cabinet base generator
using
3
4” pipe. Make sure the pipes are clean and free
of obstructions.
Codes require that a gas shutoff valve be installed in
the gas line ahead of the steam generator.
This gas cabinet base generator is equipped with fixed
orifices for use with natural or propane gas and no
adjustment is necessary.
The gas line must be capable of delivering gas to the
generator without excessive pressure drop at the rate
specified on the rating plate. The generator is equipped
with a factory preset pressure regulator. Natural gas
pressure regulators are preset for 3.5" W.C. (Water
Column) for natural gas. Propane gas pressure
regulators are preset for 10" W.C. No further adjustment
should be required.
WARNING: PRIOR TO LIGHTING, CHECK ALL
JOINTS IN THE GAS SUPPLY LINE FOR LEAKS.
USE SOAP AND WATER SOLUTION. DO NOT USE
AN OPEN FLAME.
After piping has been checked for leaks, all piping
receiving gas should be fully purged to remove air.
8
Testing The Gas Supply System
When test pressures exceed
1
2 psig (3.45 kPa), the
generator and its individual shutoff valve must be
disconnected from the gas supply piping system.
When test pressures are
1
2 psig (3.45 kPa) or less, the
generator must be isolated from the gas supply system
by closing its individual manual shutoff valve.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS (Fig’s. 2-12)
WARNING: ELECTRICAL AND GROUNDING
CONNECTIONS MUST COMPLY WITH THE
APPLICABLE PORTIONS OF THE NATIONAL
ELECTRICAL CODE ANSI/NFPA-70 (LATEST
EDITION) AND/OR OTHER LOCAL ELECTRICAL

after gas connections (if applicable) have been made.
All Models
Unless otherwise specified, field wire electrical
connection is to be 120 volts, 60 Hertz, single phase,
with grounding wire. Connect electrical supply to the
pigtail leads in the supply junction box located next to
the boiler control box for electric generators in a 24"
wide base, and under the boiler control box for all other
generator bases. The supply junction box is located on
the underside of the cabinet top on direct steam
models. Use copper wire suitable for at least 75°C
temperature. A grounding wire must be connected to
the ground lug in the junction box.
When optional step down transformer is used on
electrically heated generators, the 120 volt connection
is not required.
Electrically Heated Generators
Make the electrical supply connection in the junction
box on the contactor box. The supply wiring and circuit
protection must be adequate for the kilowatt load drawn
by the cooker. A grounding wire must be connected to
the ground lug in the junction box. Use copper wire of
the size and temperature rating marked on the supply
label.
DRAIN CONNECTIONS (Fig’s. 2-12)
Drain connections must be the open air gap type.
Provide a suitable drain under the drain pipes. For
proper drainage, a floor sink with minimum of 12" depth
is recommended.
CAUTION: In order to avoid any back pressure in
the steamer, do not connect solidly to any drain
connection.
PLUMBING CONNECTIONS (Fig’s. 2-12)
WARNING: PLUMBING CONNECTIONS MUST
COMPLY WITH APPLICABLE SANITARY, SAFETY
AND PLUMBING CODES.
Before connecting the steamer to water, the water
supply should be analyzed to make sure hardness is
less than 2.0 grains per gallon and pH of 7.5. The water
supply should be clear with no sediment or suspended
material present. If the water supply fails to meet these
standards, it will be necessary to install a water
conditioner on the boiler water feed. APPLIANCE
FAILURE CAUSED BY INADEQUATE WATER
QUALITY IS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY.
The use of strainers or filters will not remove minerals
from the water.
Cold Water
Used as boiler fill water and cold water condenser on
boiler blowdown line. Connect a
cold water line to the
1
4” N.P.T. cold water condensor line. Twenty (20) psig
minimum water pressure is required at the connections.

START-UP TEST RUN
After the appliance is installed and proper service
connections have been made, thoroughly test the
steam cooker before operation.
Gas Powered Steam Generator
1. Open manual gas shutoff valve, and if the
appliance has a manual blowdown valve, close it.
Open left cabinet door and turn water fill and power
switch ON. The red light will come on and water
will fill boiler to the required level in about 15
minutes. Observe water level gauge glass to
verify. Both valves on gauge glass assembly must
be open.
2. The dial on the gas combination control valve has
three positions (On-Pilot-Off) for manual gas control
of main burners and pilot. Turn dial on gas
combination valve to PILOT. Depress dial and light
pilot burner; maintain dial in depressed position for
about 30 seconds and release. Observe that pilot
burner flame stays on. If the flame should go out,
wait 5 minutes before relighting.
3. Turn gas combination control valve dial to ON and
burners will ignite. Steam generation will begin and
be completed in about 15 minutes. Observe that
the boiler pressure gauge indicates steam pressure
in the range of 9-12 psi (9-13 psi if a kettle is
connected to the steamer).
4. Set both timer knobs to “0”. Open both
compartment doors and observe that no steam has
entered the cooking compartments. Close doors.
5. Set both timer knobs to 2 minutes. The READY
lights will go off, the COOKING lights will come on,
and steam will be heard entering the
compartments.
After one minute, open each door and observe that
steam has ceased to enter each compartment, but
COOKING lights and cooking times at “01” are
maintained.
WARNING: THE COOKING COMPARTMENTS
CONTAIN LIVE STEAM. STAY CLEAR WHILE
OPENING EACH DOOR.
7. Close doors. Steam generation and cook times will
resume. Observe appliance drain that live steam
from compartments is being cooled by cold water
from the cold water solenoid valve.
8. When timer knobs are on “0”, each buzzer will
sound, steam generation will cease, COOKING
lights will go off and READY lights will come on.
To silence buzzers, turn timer knobs to OFF
position.
9. During simulation of cooking cycle, burners will
cycle on and off to maintain steam pressure in
boiler.
10. Turn power switch OFF. Amber light will go out.
11. Blow down boiler (see BLOW DOWN BOILER in
this manual).
Electrically Powered Steam Generator
1. If steamer has a manual blowdown valve, close it.
