INTRODUCTION

General

The procedures in this manual apply to all models unless otherwise specified. The pictures and illustrations are of a model K40ELT kettle unless otherwise noted. All information and specifications contained in this manual are based on the latest product information available at the time of printing.

Stationary and Tilting Kettles

The electric stationary and tilting kettles are self contained two thirds jacketed kettles. The lower two thirds of the kettle bowl is a double wall stainless steel construction that provides a reservoir for a solution of heat transfer fluid and distilled water for improved heating of the kettle contents. The kettles are used to prepare a variety of liquid or semi-liquid food products such as soups, stews and sauces.

SERVICE PROCEDURES AND ADJUSTMENTS

Certain procedures in this section require electrical test or measurements while power is applied to the machine. Exercise extreme caution at all times. If test points are not easily accessible, disconnect power and follow lockout / tagout procedures, attach test equipment and reapply power to the test.

TEMPERATURE CONTROLLER

Place kettle in full upright position. (tilt kettles only) Set temperature dial to lowest setting. Kettle must be below 110°F before verifying the potentiometer output to the controller is good over the full range of temperature dial travel.

Access TEMPERATURE CONTROLLER.

Check all lead wires for secure connections to the controller terminals. Wiring harness lead wires must be connected to T1-T2 and T3-T4 for proper input to controller.

TEST

Fig. 25

Re-connect power to the machine.

Turn power switch on.

Verify temperature controller is receiving 120VAC at terminals T1-T3 and T2-T4 and machine is properly grounded.

Slowly turn temperature dial to the highest setting and monitor heat light over the full range of travel.

A.

B.

Verify heat light (amber) comes on and heating element is energized.

If heat light does not remain on or flashes momentarily as temperature setting is slowly increased, verify condition of potentiometer as outlined under

POTENTIOMETER TEST.

NOTE:

Temperature controller will de-energize internal relay and turn off the output status LED if the circuitry detects an open thermocouple. LED will begin to flash 3 times, pause, then repeat the flash sequence to indicate the open thermocouple condition.

C.

If heat light and heating element do not turn on.

1) 2) Verify condition of thermocouple as

outlined under THERMOCOUPLE TEST.

Verify output from terminal T8 on controller as outlined in the steps below.

9.

Disconnect lead wire from terminal T7 on the controller.

A.

Verify 120VAC between lead wire from T7 and X1 on the output of main transformer. If correct, re-connect lead wire to terminal T7 and continue with procedure.

B.

If incorrect, check pressure switch (1PS) and water level controller (WLC LLCO).

10. Verify 120VAC between T8 and X1 on the output of main transformer. If correct, output from controller is functioning properly.

A.

If incorrect, install a replacement temperature controller and check for proper operation.

WATER LEVEL CONTROL (WLC LLCO)

level in the kettle reservoir jacket drops below the WLC LLCO probe. A single low level cut-off probe (LLCO) is connected to the control.

The water level control provides low level cut-off protection to shut off the heat source in case the fluid The water level control has input voltage of 120VAC across terminals L1 and L2 which powers the primary side of the transformer on the board. One side of the Page 23 of 30 F45472 Rev. A (1117)

Electric Stationary and Tilting Kettles - ELECTRICAL OPERATION transformer secondary is powered through a series path to chassis ground. The other side of the transformer secondary (12VAC) is connected to the LLCO coil and the LLCO LED. The grounded potential is carried through the water in the reservoir jacket to the LLCO probe. When the kettle is in the full upright position and the reservoir jacket fluid is at the proper level, the fluid is in constant contact with the LLCO probe and the circuit is completed.

When the power switch is turned ON, power is supplied to the water level control. With the kettle in the full upright position and the fluid level in the reservoir jacket in contact with the LLCO probe, the LLCO relay coil is energized. The LLCO relay contacts WLC LLCO-NC open, WLC LLCO-NO close and the LLCO LED turns on. When the kettle is tilted to empty the contents, the fluid is no longer in contact with the LLCO probe and the circuit is open. The LLCO relay coil is de-energized and LLCO LED turns off.
