Section 4 - Sequence of Operation
The following “action-reaction” outline is provided to
help the user understand how the equipment works.
When the operator starts up the kettle by turning the
operating thermostat dial from “OFF” to a desired
setting, the thermostat switch closes. This lights up the
heating indicator light and causes the contactors to
close, allowing power to flow to heating elements.
When the temperature of the steam jacket reaches the
value corresponding to the dial setting, the thermostat
switch opens. This turns off the heating indicator light
and causes the contactors to open, stopping the power
to the heaters.
As soon as the thermostat senses that the kettle is
cooling below the set point, the thermostat switch
closes, the heating indicator light comes on, the
contactors close, and the heaters come on again. On-
off cycling continues, keeping the kettle at the set
temperature.
This is why the heating indicator light cycles on and off
during normal operation. Every time the kettle is tilted,
the tilt cut-off switch interrupts the power supply to the
heaters, so that the heating elements will not operate
while not submerged in the jacket water.
If steam pressure greater than 50 PSIG is generated in
the jacket, the safety valve will open and relieve the
excess pressure.
If the jacket water level gets too low before the heating
elements overheat, the high-limit control will open and
shut off power to the elements until the kettle cools.
Setting the operating thermostat dial to “OFF” shuts
down all control and heating circuits.
