GC-12

The GC-12 is a gas-fired, self-contained, steam jacketed kettle designed for commercial kitchens that demand high efficiency and durability. The kettle features a double-wall interior that forms a steam jacket around the lower two-thirds of the unit, with the jacket enclosure containing factory-sealed distilled water to ensure optimal heat retention and even heating. The kettle’s hemispherical bottom design allows for superior heat circulation, promoting consistent cooking results. The exterior is fully insulated for energy efficiency.

The kettle is mounted on four sturdy stainless steel tubular legs, each fitted with a four-hole adjustable foot for secure floor mounting. It also includes a stainless steel mechanism housing for added durability. A removable operating handle with a high-heatproof knob is conveniently mounted on the right side of the kettle for easy operation.

Constructed from high-quality type 304 stainless steel with a #4 satin exterior finish, the GC-12 offers long-lasting performance and easy maintenance. The interior liner is made from one-piece welded type 316 stainless steel, providing enhanced resistance to corrosion, making it ideal for high-acid cooking applications. This kettle is ASME constructed and National Board Registered, ensuring it meets rigorous safety and quality standards.

The kettle is equipped with user-friendly controls that include a solid-state thermostat, power switch, temperature light, ignition light, low water indicator light, water sight glass, pressure gauge, and electronic ignition for quick and reliable start-ups. For added safety, the GC-12 features a low-water shut-off, a burner shut-off mechanism when the kettle is tilted, a pressure switch, and a pressure relief valve to ensure safe operation.

The GC-12 operates within a temperature range of 150°F (66°C) to 285°F (140°C), with a maximum pressure of 50 PSI (345 kPa), providing reliable and efficient cooking for a variety of applications.
