Getting started with FWE’s PHTT Series Heated Cabinets

Proper preparation of your PHTT Series cabinet is essential to ensure optimal performance. Follow these steps to get your unit ready for use:

• Unpack and Uncrate: After uncrating and unpacking the unit, ensure that all packaging materials are removed and the cabinet is placed in its designated location. Please look over the unit for any visible damages during shipping and report any issues as soon as possible.
• Electrical Connection: Plug the cabinet into a properly grounded power receptacle with an appropriately rated breaker. If specified in the unit’s documentation, connect it to a fully independent circuit to prevent electrical issues. Always check the voltage and amperage requirements stamped on the nameplate serial tag attached to the unit before connecting. It is crucial to ensure that the electrical setup complies with local codes and regulations to avoid any safety hazards.
• Water Reservoir: Add water to the reservoir. For immediate start-up, fill the reservoir to the “Super-Charge Level.” For high humidity levels or long-term holding, fill to the upper level mark. Avoid overfilling; do not fill above the upper water line to ensure proper functioning and prevent overflow. Using distilled water can help reduce mineral buildup and extend the life of the heating elements.
• Initial Inspection: Before powering up the unit, conduct a thorough inspection to make sure all components are securely in place. Check for any loose connections or parts that may have shifted during transport. This step is vital to prevent operational issues and ensure the unit works correctly from the start.
• First Run: Once the unit is plugged in and the water reservoir is filled, turn on the cabinet and allow it to run for a short period to stabilize the temperature and humidity levels. This initial run helps in identifying any immediate issues and ensures the cabinet is ready for holding food at the desired conditions.

Following these steps will ensure that your PHTT Series cabinet is set up correctly and ready to provide professional results with the Clymate IQ® heating system. Regular maintenance and proper preparation will enhance the longevity and efficiency of your equipment, ensuring it meets the high standards required in a professional kitchen environment.
