STEAM INJECTION
As an optionalfeature, all 900 Seriesovens maybe
supplied with steam jets for baking hard rolls, and
vienna, french or other hard crusted breads. This
item is also available as a kit which may be in-
stalled in the field. To a baker, steam actually
means an atmosphere of water vapor. Therefore,
it is very important that the steam be low pressure
(2-1/2 to 3 PSI), that condensate be taken fromthe
steam line before it enters the oven, and that the
steam be sufficiently saturated to give the vapor
cloud effect required.
At least one quarter boiler horsepower for all large
900 Series compartment (42” x 32”) or t wo small
900 Series compartments (33” x 22”) is recom-
mended. Several firms manufacture electric and
gas fired steam generators ranging in size from
1/2 boiler horsepower upward. If the steam gener-
ator is mounted adjacent to the oven, line trans-
mission losses will be insignificant. If the steam
source is located a considerabledistance from th e
oven, line transmission losses must be consid-
ered in determining the proper size of the steam.
Please refer to the accompanying diagram for the
recommended installation of the steam injection
system.

Gas Fla me in oven must be turned of f
