Blodgett SB-E Series - Manual (Page 6)

4 OM-E-SB
The E-SB Steamer is designed to bring you years of service. It has two stainless steel
cavities (cooking chambers) and a control compartment, which houses the electrical
components and steam valves. In each cavity, a powerful blower circulates the steam
for increased heating efficiency. Each cavity, depending on model, will hold either
three or five steam table pans (12” x 20” x 2-1/2”).
A 16 gauge stainless steel case encloses the cavities and the control compartment
that house electrical components. The door hinges are reversible (the doors may be
hung to open from the left or right).
Operator Controls are located on the front panel.
The steamer cavities are mounted on a cabinet base containing an electric steam
boiler that generates low pressure steam. The boiler is small enough to fit in a 24-1/8”
wide by 34-3/16” deep by 29-3/16” tall (maximum) cabinet. The boiler is constructed
of 1/4” thick steel, which is certified by the American Society of Mechanical Engineers
(ASME) for pressure vessels. All welds are hydrostatically tested. The boiler is also
equipped with required instruments, fittings, and controls per CSD-1 (Controls and
Safety Devices for automatically fired boilers). Heating elements with low watt density
ensure longer life for the unit. The boiler is available for three phase 60 Hertz service
in the following voltage and power combinations:
208 Volts 240 Volts 480 Volts
24 Kilowatt 24 Kilowatt 24 Kilowatt
36 Kilowatt 36 Kilowatt 36 Kilowatt
48 Kilowatt 48 Kilowatt 48 Kilowatt
The drain system includes a spray condenser, which suppresses any steam escaping
from the chamber and cools condensate water going into the drain.
