Groen - Gas Heated Tilting Kettle

• Used in large-scale catering and institutional kitchens for preparing soups, stews, and sauces.
• Suitable for food manufacturing facilities producing batches of confectionery, jams, or pie fillings.
• Employed in central production units for cooking bulk quantities of pasta, rice, or vegetables.
• Utilised in pharmaceutical and chemical industries for mixing and heating non-food products where precise temperature control is required.

Typical capacity

For this class of equipment, capacities commonly range from 80 litres to over 300 litres, with larger industrial units exceeding 500 litres.

Power supply

This unit is gas-heated, typically requiring a natural gas or LPG connection. Auxiliary power for controls and tilting mechanism is commonly 230V, single-phase.

Heating method

Gas-fired, often utilising a steam jacket for even heat distribution and preventing scorching.

Tilting mechanism

Units of this type commonly feature either a manual hand crank or an electric/hydraulic powered tilt for controlled discharge.

Construction material

Typically constructed from food-grade stainless steel (e.g., 304 or 316) for hygiene and durability.

Temperature control

Commonly includes thermostatic control for precise temperature management, essential for sensitive products.

• What is the primary benefit of a tilting kettle?
