Description
 

Groen AH Kettle

    The Groen AH series kettles are a self contained, gas, steam jacketed kettle.  The Groen AH kettles work by having a gas burner that heats a heat exchanger filled with water, that converts water into steam.  The steam rises into the jacket of the kettle and heats the product.  The product absorbs the heat from the steam and converts the steam back into condensate.  The condensate returns to the bottom of the kettle where it is reheated again into steam.  This process is repeated until your product reaches the desired temperature that is set by the user on the thermostat.  The Groen AH kettle's thermostat can be set for product temperature control between 150 F to 295 F, standard, with other options available.  The entire system is sealed making it efficient and easy to maintain.  The Groen AH kettles are easy to use, reliable, efficient, and are used by various industries throughout the world.  Capacities for the Groen AH kettles are available in 20, 40, 60, 80, and 100 gallon units.  Units are fully customizable to application.
