INSTALLATION
SEZ SERIES COUNTERTOP STEAMERS
INSTALLATION
!
CAUTION
Do not locate unit adjacent to any high heat or grease producing piece of equipment, such as a range
top, griddle, fryer, etc., that could allow radiant heat to raise the exterior temperature of the steamer
body above 130°F (54°C). DO NOT MOUNT ABOVE OTHER COOKING EQUIPMENT.
NOTICE
These installation procedures must be followed by qualified personnel or warranty will be void.
Local codes regarding installation vary greatly from one area to another. The National Fire Protection
Association, Inc. states in its NFPA 96 latest edition that local codes are the “authority having
jurisdiction” when it comes to installation requirements for equipment. Therefore, installations should
comply with all local codes.
The unit, when installed, must be electrically grounded and comply with local codes, or in the
absence of local codes with the National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA 70-latest edition.
Canadian installation must comply with CSA-Standard (C22.2 No. 109-M1981 General
Requirements-Canadian Electrical Code, Part II. 109-M1981) Commercial Cooking Appliances.
NOTICE
EXHAUST FANS AND CANOPIES: It is recommended that the steamer be installed under a
ventilation hood. Consult local codes for proper installation of hoods. Proper ventilation is the owner’s
responsibility. Any problem due to improper ventilation will not be covered by warranty.
LEVELING: Unit must be level to assure maximum performance. Improper leveling may void
warranty.
Step 1: Unpacking
IMMEDIATELY INSPECT FOR SHIPPING DAMAGE
All containers should be examined for damage before and during unloading. The freight carrier has
assumed responsibility for its safe transit and delivery. If damaged equipment is received, either
apparent or concealed, a claim must be made with the delivering carrier.
Apparent damage or loss must be noted on the freight bill at the time of delivery. The freight bill must
then be signed by the carrier representative (Driver). If the bill is not signed, the carrier may refuse
the claim. The carrier can supply the necessary forms.
A request for inspection must be made to the carrier within 15 days if there is concealed damage or
loss that is not apparent until after the equipment is uncrated. The carrier should arrange an
inspection. Be certain to hold all contents plus all packing material.

Step 2: Installation
1. Uncrate carefully. Report any hidden damage to the freight carrier IMMEDIATELY.
2. Do not remove any tags or labels until unit is installed and working properly.
3. If unit is to be installed on legs, locate legs and install as shown in Figure 2 below.
Figure 2
4. If the unit is to be installed on a counter top or other surface without using legs, the unit must be sealed
to the surface to prevent any water, grease, etc., from accumulating under the steamer. The steamer
can be bolted to the counter but will still have to be sealed. The installer may use G.E. or Dow Corning
RTV type sealant. Consult local code for exact requirements. See Figure 3 below.

Step 3: Electric Connection
A field connection Fuse Block is located at the rear of the unit, lower left side when facing the back of the unit
(see Figure 4 below). A hole is provided for a 3/4" conduit fitting (solid or flex). The rear cover must be
removed to gain access to fuse block (see Figure 9 on page 26).
Be sure that the input voltage matches the requirement on the serial plate. The unit is factory wired per
customer order.
! WARNING
A POSITIVE GROUND CONNECTION IS ESSENTIAL. DO NOT ALLOW ANY TAMPERING OR
ADJUSTMENT OF ANY CONTROL OR WIRING. THE UNIT IS FACTORY SET. ADJUSTING ANY
INTERNAL COMPONENT OTHER THAN THE MAIN FUSE BLOCK CAN VOID THE WARRANTY.
THIS UNIT REQUIRES A KIT TO BE FIELD CONVERTED FROM THREE-PHASE TO SINGLE-
PHASE OR VICE-VERSA. CONSULT FACTORY FOR PHASE CHANGES.
All 208-220-240 and 480 volt units will have three fuse block sections, “L1-L2-L3”, for use with either 3-wire
3-phase or 2-wire, single-phase, 50 or 60 Hz.

Step 4: Water Connection
! WARNING
Do not connect steamer to a hot water line. A hot water connection will damage the steamer.
NOTICE
To meet warranty requirements, the supply water must meet the following specifications:
Pressure
30 to 60 PSI
60 PPM
Total Dissolved Solids (TDS)
Hardness
pH
2 grains or 35 PPM
7.0 to 7.5
Connect a cold water line to the water inlet strainer on the back of the steamer, as shown in Figure 4 on
page 9. The connector on the unit is 1/4" NPT female.

INSTALLATION
Step 3: Drain Connection
The drain outlet is located on the back of the steamer, as shown in Figure 4 on page 9. The drain connector
on the unit is 3/8" NPT male.
Position the unit near, but not on top of, an open floor drain. DO NOT directly plumb to the unit unless you
also install an “open funnel” downstream of this connection in the drain system. Make the drain line from the
unit to the air gap above the “open funnel” as short as possible. There should be no horizontal piping
between the unit and the air gap above the “open funnel.” The “open funnel” is intended to eliminate any
water from entering the steamer because of a blocked drain, and it also prevents any back pressure within
the steamer cavity. Any connection that allows the build-up of back pressure in the unit (such as a reduction
in pipe size to a line smaller than 3/8", or more than one 90-degree angle in the line prior to the “open funnel”
drain discharge point) may cause personal or property damage and will therefore void the warranty. The unit
is a pressureless, free-venting steam cooker and will not operate properly unless the drain line is short, at a
steep angle, and open! See Figure 6 below.

For eggs cooked in the shell, adding salt to the cooking water increases cooking efficiency and decreases cooking
time. If the egg cracks, the white is cooked at the crack and is sealed right away.
To avoid green yolk (which is a deposit of iron sulfide) chill the eggs immediately after removing from the steamer by
plunging them into a cold water bath (preferably containing ice).
A quick and easy way to cook eggs for a salad mixture is to crack them directly into a solid steam table pan which has
been lightly coated with salad oil. Do not mix. Steam until they are hard cooked. Remove and chop as you would for
egg salad. The job of peeling is eliminated.
•
•
Transfer steamed hot chicken to deep pan, cover with Cacciatore Sauce and finish in oven. Bake 20 to 30 minutes.
May be held on steam table.
Chicken, sausage, and/or fish may be browned in Infra-Red or Radiant Broiler after steaming by brushing with melted
margarine mixed with salad oil to give a golden brown color.
•
•
Save juices from steamed chicken or turkey to make soups, sauces, or casserole dishes.
Chicken may be steamed in advance and refrigerated for next day’s use. Be sure to bring product back to 180°F
before serving.

Save the juice from the corned beef. After the cabbage has been steamed, place it in a solid pan and add the juice for
flavoring and holding on a steam table.
Steaming brisket is a definite time saver. Boiling in water takes 40 to 50 minutes per pound. Using the steamer can
save 50% in cooking time.
Cabbage, when steamed, retains its color and wedge identity. It will not break apart as it does when boiled in an open
pot.
When removing items prepared in a perforated pan, place a solid pan underneath the perforated pan with the cooked
food in order to prevent dripping on the floor.
The steamer is designed to accept standard 12" x 20" pans. Fractional size pans and dishes can be used as well with
the optional perforated shelf.
For stirring, the pan does not have to be removed from the steamer. Pull pan 1/3 way out of the cavity and the entire
surface is accessible.
The door may be opened at any time during operation to remove or add food.

CLEANING
SEZ SERIES COUNTERTOP STEAMERS
CLEANING
Southbend equipment is constructed with the best quality materials and is designed to provide durable
service when properly maintained. To expect the best performance, your equipment must be maintained in
good condition and cleaned daily. Naturally, the frequency and extent of cleaning depends on the amount
and degree of usage.
Following daily and more extensive periodic maintenance procedures will increase the life of your equipment.
Climatic conditions (i.e., salt air, seasonings, and water quality) may result in the need for more thorough and
more frequent cleaning in order to keep equipment performing at optimal levels.
! WARNING: BURN HAZARD
For proper and safe operation, this steamer must be cleaned daily as described in this manual.
Failure to do so could result in serious injury or damage.
Drains must be kept clean and clear of debris.
! WARNING: SHOCK HAZARD
DO NOT GET WATER IN THE CONTROLS.
This could result in expensive repairs and/or electrical shock.
De-energize all power to equipment before cleaning the equipment.
DAILY CLEANING
1. Turn lever to the “OFF” position.
2. Remove pan guides.
3. Clean all interior surfaces with soap, water, and a non-metallic pad. Occasional use of a deliming
solution such as Lime-A-Way is recommended. RINSE THOROUGHLY WITH CLEAN WATER.
4. Ensure drain opening is clear.
5. Replace pan guides.
6. Leave the door open at night after cleaning to prolong the life of the gasket.
NOTICE
DO NOT USE high-chlorine or bleach solution for cleaning the door gasket.
DO NOT USE steel wool or other metallic pads in the steamer.
PERIODIC CLEANING
•
If lime or mineral deposits start to build up in the interior, clean the unit by using Southbend “descaler” or
other non-caustic deliming solution. Follow manufacturer’s recommended procedures. Thoroughly rinse
out unit with clean water.
•
To remove normal dirt, grease, or product residue from stainless steel, use ordinary soap and water
applied with a sponge or cloth. Dry thoroughly with a clean cloth. Never use vinegar or any corrosive
cleaner.

SEZ SERIES COUNTERTOP STEAMERS
CLEANING
•
To remove grease and food splatter or condensed vapors that have baked on the equipment, apply
cleanser to a damp cloth or sponge and rub cleanser on the metal in the direction of the polishing lines
on the metal. Rubbing cleanser as gently as possible in the direction of the polished lines will not mar the
finish of the stainless steel. NEVER RUB WITH A CIRCULAR MOTION. Soil and burnt deposits which
do not respond to the above procedure can usually be removed by rubbing the surface with SCOTCH-
BRITE scouring pads. DO NOT USE ORDINARY STEEL WOOL, as any particles left on the surface will
rust and further spoil the appearance of the finish. NEVER USE A WIRE BRUSH, STEEL SCOURING
PAD, SCRAPER, FILE OR OTHER STEEL TOOLS. Surfaces which are marred collect dirt more rapidly
and become more difficult to clean. Marring also increases the possibility of corrosive attack. Refinishing
may then be required.
SEMIANNUAL CLEANING
At least twice a year, have your Southbend Authorized Service Agency or another qualified service
technician clean and adjust the unit for maximum performance. Semiannual cleaning should include the
following:
1. Add two gallons of deliming solution through the door into the cavity.
2. Turn unit on, let run for 30 minutes.
3. Turn unit off and drain all solution from the cavity.
4. Fill unit with clean water and drain. Repeat 2 times.
Consult the Southbend Authorized Parts/Service Distributor list for the Authorized Service Representative in
your area or contact Southbend at 1-800-348-2558 for this information.
