Groen HY-10SM HyPlus Convection Steamer - Cabinet, Pressureless, Direct Steam

The pan rating decides this purchase, and on the HY-10SM it is five 12 x 20 x 2-1/2 in pans to a cavity. Groen heats it with a direct steam supply, so nothing in the unit has to make steam at all. That is ten across the two cavities.

There is no generator and no boiler in this build: the cavities are fed from the building's own steam supply, which makes it the cheapest of the range to run wherever house steam is already piped. Because the cavities run pressureless, a door can be opened part way through a cycle to pull one pan without shutting the other side down. A blower is mounted at the side of each cavity to keep the steam moving over the pans.

The build is all stainless, cavity and cabinet alike, and the side panels are removable. The door is air-insulated and field-reversible, and its seal is a one-piece part that is replaced rather than repaired. A magnetic door switch cuts the heat as the door swings, and there is nothing protruding for a pan to catch on. The cavity is lined in polished stainless steel, which is the surface that gets wiped at the end of a shift. Timers are separate per cavity, each with a constant steam position, so one side can hold while the other cooks.

It is cabinet mounted, with the steam source in the base under the cavities. This build is wired for 115 V single phase. Leave working room on the loading side, because a full pan is carried out at arm's length.
