Built to handle continuous high-volume production, this 40-gallon stationary kettle delivers consistent thermal performance and robust construction for professional kitchens. Operators will produce large batches with controlled heat input while maintaining sanitary contact surfaces and fast draw-off for plating lines. Facility managers will value certified safety compliance and low electrical demand for straightforward installation.
LongDescription#@#NA#@@#Cleaning Instructions#@#Unplug the kettle and close the gas valve. Drain and cool the unit fully, then open the spring-assisted cover. Scrub the 316 stainless liner with a mild alkaline cleaner and a soft brush; rinse thoroughly. Clean the 2" compression draw-off valve and perforated strainer with warm, soapy water; inspect seals and faucet bracket. Degrease exterior and vents to reduce fire risk. Dry all surfaces before restoring gas and power to ensure safe operation and food safety.#@@#Additional Info#@#Vulcan's K40GL liquid propane kettle has a 40 Gal. capacity, 316 stainless steel liner, 2/3 jacket, hinged cover, 2" draw-off valve, faucet bracket, 100,000 BTU input, and 110/120v, 1-Ph, 5 amp operation.#@@#General Info#@#Description #@#
Built to handle continuous high-volume production, this 40-gallon stationary kettle delivers consistent thermal performance and robust construction for professional kitchens. Operators will produce large batches with controlled heat input while maintaining sanitary contact surfaces and fast draw-off for plating lines. Facility managers will value certified safety compliance and low electrical demand for straightforward installation.
#@@# Partial Jacket#@#
The unit uses a partial jacket design to concentrate 100,000 BTU input where heat transfer matters most, enabling rapid recovery and uniform cooking of thick stocks and sauces. Chefs will reduce batch cycle time and maintain texture in large-volume applications.
#@@# Stainless Liner#@#
Engineers specify a 316 stainless steel liner with an ellipsoidal bottom to resist corrosion and promote efficient heat distribution. Kitchen staff will experience durable service life and simplified cleaning while minimizing flavor carryover.
#@@# Spring Cover#@#
A spring-assisted hinged cover with heavy-duty pivot assembly reduces operator strain and secures product during heating to limit evaporation losses. Line cooks will access contents safely and preserve product yield during back-to-back cycles.
#@@# Draw Off Valve#@#
The kettle includes a 2-inch compression draw-off valve with perforated strainer to control flow of solids and liquids during transfer. Production teams will decant stocks or stews cleanly, accelerating portioning and reducing waste.
#@@# Liquid Propane#@#
Designed for liquid propane power, the station operates at 110-120 volts with a 1-Ph electrical profile and low amperage draw of 5 amps, simplifying service connections in remote or retrofit locations. Operations managers will integrate the unit without extensive electrical upgrades while achieving high thermal output.
