Groen EE-60 60 Gallon Steam Jacketed Kettle - Stationary, 208V 3-Phase

The EE-60 stands on the floor on its own legs and carries 60 gallons without pivoting. Heating is by sealed element rather than by flame, so nothing about the installation involves a flue. A kitchen buys it to stop cooking the same batch three times a day.

Groen does not state how far the jacket extends on this series, but the principle is the same: steam against the wall rather than flame under the pan. Groen caps jacket pressure at 30 PSI. Nothing pivots: the vessel is fixed to its mounting and stays level from the first charge to the last.

The body is type 316 stainless, welded into a single piece, which is why cleaning is a wash rather than a strip-down. The liner is type 316 stainless, chosen for product that would pit a lighter grade over time. The cooking temperature is held by a thermostat while a pilot light report what the jacket is doing, with a built-in contactor behind them. It carries UL, NSF and ASME listings.

This SKU is wired for 208 V three phase, and that circuit has to be run before the kettle arrives. Leveling happens at installation, and after that the kettle is part of the room. Access for cleaning is worth designing in rather than working around.
