One Fat Frog Restaurant Equipment carries a variety of used steam kettles and used tilt kettles. When selecting the right steam kettle for your restaurant, it’s important to keep in mind the steam requirements. Here’s some handy tips on calculating steam requirements for your used steam kettle or tilt kettle.

All steam kettles (except pre-piped cabinet models) require a stream trap and check valve to operate. A steam trap, pressure reducing valve, gate valve, and other required plumbing fittings usually do not come with kettles. A steam strap and pressure reducing valve can be ordered from the manufacturer. The plumber or person installing your steam kettle can oftentimes provide the piping requirements.

Keep in mind the boiler location in relation to the kettles, as well as the sizing of the piping used and the number of bends and size reductions, etc., encountered are crucial to proper boiler sizing. Pounds of stem per hour is relative to heating time. For example, 19.5 ponds of steam per hour is equal to a heating time of five minutes. For more information, try contacting the manufacturer of your steam kettle.
