Stop compromising output for speed. This direct steam kettle combines large volume handling with precise thermal control to ensure consistent production in institutional and commercial kitchens. Operators can produce up to 80 gallons per batch while maintaining food safety and achieving uniform cooking results.
LongDescription#@#NA#@@#Cleaning Instructions#@#Unplug equipment and lock out steam supply before cleaning. Drain kettle, open 2" TDO and remove solids with the 1/4" perforated strainer. Wash interior with mild alkaline detergent and warm water; scrub liner with nonabrasive brush. Rinse thoroughly and sanitize food-contact surfaces to eliminate bacteria. Clean exterior stainless steel with nonabrasive cleaner and soft cloth. Inspect seals and drains; remove grease from vents to reduce fire risk. Dry completely before restoring steam.#@@#Additional Info#@#Groen PT-80 steam kettle has 80-gallon capacity, 2/3 jacket, 316 stainless steel liner, 2" TDO, 1/4" strainer, pedestal base, power aid cover, 25 PSI rating, weighs 252 pounds, CSA listed, made in USA for commercial kitchens.#@@#General Info#@#Description #@#
Stop compromising output for speed. This direct steam kettle combines large volume handling with precise thermal control to ensure consistent production in institutional and commercial kitchens. Operators can produce up to 80 gallons per batch while maintaining food safety and achieving uniform cooking results.
#@@# Capacity Control.#@#
Engineers designed this unit for an 80-gallon working volume to support high-volume menu cycles in schools, hospitals, and catering operations. Managers will reduce batch counts and labor time since each run delivers a full production load.
#@@# Stainless Liner.#@#
Manufacturers fitted a 316 stainless steel liner to resist corrosion and meet rigorous sanitation standards common in healthcare and institutional kitchens. Chefs will benefit from a smooth interior that withstands acidic formulations and frequent cleaning.
#@@# Partial Jacket.#@#
Designers implemented a 2/3 jacket configuration that concentrates steam contact for efficient energy transfer while minimizing excess steam usage. Supervisors will notice faster heat-up and predictable simmering with lower steam consumption compared to full jacket models.
#@@# Robust Construction.#@#
Fabricators built the kettle with stainless steel exterior surfaces and a pedestal base that stabilizes the assembly on commercial floors. Maintenance teams will appreciate the durable structure and straightforward access for service routines, reducing downtime.
#@@# Operational Controls.#@#
Engineers specified a 25 PSI operating limit and a 2-inch tangential discharge outlet to deliver controlled steam and rapid drawdown when transferring product. Kitchen staff can move dense soups and stocks through the 2-inch TDO with fewer clogging events than smaller outlets.
#@@# Straining and Coverage.#@#
The design includes a 1/4-inch perforated strainer and a power aid cover to protect against large particulates and manage condensation during long cook cycles.
#@@#Delivery Details#@#
• Please ensure to handle the product with utmost care.

• Contact customer service for delivery concerns.
• Delivery times may vary based on location.#@@#deliverynotes#@#NA#@@#Maintenance Guide#@#Service teams should descale the Groen PT-80 kettle monthly using a manufacturer-approved acidic descaler to remove mineral buildup and restore heat transfer. Inspect and tighten steam joints and the 2" TDO fittings weekly. Clean the 316 stainless steel liner after each batch with a nonabrasive detergent and rinse thoroughly. Verify the 25 PSI safety valve function quarterly and replace seals when leaks appear. Lubricate hinge points and test the power aid cover operation routinely.
