Equipment Description The BLT/BLP is a stainless steel, electrically heated Braising Pan which is equipped with integrated heating elements, a hand operated or motor powered tilting mechanism, electrical controls and a hinged cover. The Braising Pan serves as a braising unit, griddle, fry pan, oven, kettle, bain-marie, or food warmer and server. It can also be adapted for use as a non-pressure steamer. The pan body is constructed of heavy-duty stainless steel, welded into a solid piece.

Report any apparent shipping damage or an incorrect shipment to the delivery agent. CAUTION UNIT WEIGHS 420 TO 560 LB (190 TO 255 KG).
Installation CAUTION BEFORE ANY ELECTRICAL CONVERSION, VERIFY THAT THE BRANCH CIRCUIT WIRING IS ADEQUATE TO HANDLE ANY INCREASE IN AMPERAGE REQUIREMENTS. REFER TO THE ELECTRICAL SPECIFICATIONS LISTED BELOW. WARNING INSTALLATION OF THE BRAISING PAN MUST BE DONE BY PERSONNEL QUALIFIED TO WORK WITH ELECTRICITY. IMPROPER INSTALLATION CAN RESULT IN INJURY TO PERSONNEL AND/OR DAMAGE TO EQUIPMENT. Electronic spark ignition Internal wiring for the Braising Pan is supplied complete.
Installation 6. For conversion from 3-phase to 1-phase a. Verify that the branch circuit wiring is adequate for any increased amperage requirements. (See table on previous page) b. 1-phase requires two jumper wires. One jumper wire exists on the terminal block for 3- phase input. The second jumper wire is located in a plastic bag inside the control box. c. Attach jumper wires to terminal block as per wiring diagram for 1 phase supply. d.
Operation WARNING KEEP THE AREA AROUND BRAISING PAN FREE AND CLEAR OF COMBUSTIBLE MATERIALS. A. CAUTION KEEP FLOORS IN BRAISING PAN WORK AREA CLEAN AND DRY. IF SPILLS OCCUR, CLEAN IMMEDIATELY TO AVOID THE DANGER OF SLIPS OR FALLS. CAUTION REPLACE THE HOLE PLUG BEFORE CLEANING OTHERWISE WATER COULD ENTER THE ELECTRICAL CONTROL BOX AND DAMAGE THE PARTS. WARNING WHEN TILTING BRAISING PAN FOR PRODUCT TRANSFER: 1) USE CONTAINERS DEEP ENOUGH TO CONTAIN AND MINIMIZE PRODUCT SPLASHING.
Operation CAUTION DO NOT HEAT AN EMPTY PAN FOR MORE THAN FIVE MINUTES AT A SETTING HIGHER THAN 300°F. DAMAGE TO THE PAN COULD RESULT. C. CAUTION DO NOT OVERFILL THE BRAISING PAN WHEN COOKING, HOLDING OR CLEANING. KEEP LIQUIDS AT LEAST 2-3” (5-8 cm) BELOW THE PAN BODY RIM TO ALLOW CLEARANCE FOR STIRRING, BOILING PRODUCT AND SAFE TRANSFER. WARNING AVOID ANY EXPOSURE TO THE STEAM ESCAPING FROM THE COVER VENT. DIRECT CONTACT COULD RESULT IN SEVERE BURNS.
Sequence of Operation The following “action-reaction” outline is provided to help you understand how the braising pan actually functions. When you start up the pan by turning the thermostat from “OFF” to a desired temperature, the thermostat switch closes. This causes the contactors to close, and allows power to flow to the heating elements and the indicator light. When the pan temperature reaches the value set on the thermostat dial, the thermostat switch opens and causes the contactors to open.
Cleaning WARNING KEEP WATER AND SOLUTIONS OUT OF CONTROLS AND ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT. DO NOT USE A HIGH PRESSURE HOSE TO CLEAN THE CONTROL CONSOLE, ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS, ETC. A. Suggested Tools 1. A good stainless steel cleaner 2. Brushes in good condition 3. Cloth for cleaning controls 4. Chlorine sanitizer 5. Heavy Duty Cleaner (if required) CAUTION MOST CLEANERS ARE HARMFUL TO THE SKIN, EYES, MUCOUS MEMBRANES AND CLOTHING.
Cleaning CAUTION NEVER LEAVE A CHLORINE SANITIZER IN CONTACT WITH STAINLESS STEEL SURFACES FOR LONGER THAN 30 MINUTES. LONGER CONTACT CAN CAUSE CORROSION. 11. Following supplier instructions, apply the sanitizing agent after the unit has been cleaned and drained. Thoroughly drain off the sanitizer. CAUTION KEEP CAUSTIC COMPOUNDS SUCH AS FRYER BOILOUT CLEANERS AWAY FROM ALUMINUM PARTS OF THE LID HINGE SYSTEM AND THE COUNTERBALANCE ASSEMBLY. HIGHLY CAUSTIC COMPOUNDS COULD DAMAGE THIS MATERIAL. 13.
Maintenance WARNING ELECTRIC POWER ALWAYS SHOULD BE SHUT OFF BEFORE WORK IS DONE ON INTERNAL COMPONENTS. Your braising pan is designed to require minimum maintenance, but certain parts may need replacement after prolonged use. After installation, no user adjustment should be necessary. If a service need arises, only authorized personnel should perform the work. WARNING DISCONNECT ELECTRICAL POWER FROM THE UNIT BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO GREASE THE TRUNNION BEARINGS.
