Blodgett KTC-E Series - Manual (Page 6)

4 OM-KTT/KTC-E
The KTT and KTC are table top, tilting, steam jacketed kettles with a thermostatically
controlled, self-contained, electrically-heated steam supply and appropriate controls,
mounted on a sturdy base. Models are available in 5, 6, 10 and 12-gallon capacity.
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 a design pressure of 50 PSIG. Kettle finish is 180 emery grit on
the inside and bright semi-deluxe on the outside. A tilt handle on the KTT kettle and a
hand wheel crank on the KTC kettle allows the operator to manually tilt the kettle body
in a controlled manner. Pouring height accepts pans up to four inches high on a table
top.
A built-in steam generator, sized for the kettle capacity and heated by electricity,
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 295°F. In addition to
the adjustable thermostat for operating control, the unit has a tilt cut-off switch, low
water cut-off, pressure relief 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 or 480 volt power. All 208/240 volt kettles are wired for 208 volt,
three-phase operation. For 240 volt, three-phase OR single-phase conversion, see the
wiring diagrams and installation instructions in this manual.
