how do you change a heating element in a delfield steamtable model sh4-nu.

I know the top has to come off but i have tried to remove it and there is still something holding it down.

You have two options. They just set into the cut out but have to be caulked in place to prevent leaks, and cleaning liquid from getting between the server and counter. To remove ussually requires a thin blade be run around the unit edge to break the silicone. But you can also just remove the two nuts on the studs that mount the heater and…

Interesting question. Especially since they don't list door handles separately from a door. But from previous experience I can tell you that the sealer is for bacterial protection, not mounting. It will have screws from the inside of the panel that mount the handle. Not knowing if you have a stainless or glass door, I can't provide much…

three phase on single phase line

Hello all I’ve been running into customers who have a capacitor box wired into their single phase power line to create a 3rd line that will allow their 3 phase equipment to operate. Have any of you seen this before? Do you know the configuration the capacitors need to be wired in? Does this kind of system strain the motor? Thanks

Maybe I should explain what is happening in the motor. 3 phase motors have a basic set of 3 or multiples of 3. L1, L2, L3 inputs. Now the motor can be wound two ways. Wye or Delta. Delta is the normal way. So L1 would connect to winding one and three. L2 would connect to winding one and two. And L3 would connect to winding two and three. Multi…

Standard Oven shuts off during service

I have a Southbend S24E range/oven. The oven is used for plate warming during service. It is kept at around 200 degrees. Every night the oven will go out and needs relighting (Pushing the pilot knob and on from there). We made sure the wires are tight on the valve and replaced the thermopile. It still goes out. Would replacing the valve help… (Show more)

That’s the basic stuff but over the years I also found some weird ones like them turning fans on when they were busy to try to stay cool and it would flicker the pilot flame and as the burner went out it would kill it

Haha, you've gone through the same mental process I have. It's odd, but it could very well be. I tried it again last night, fired it, it got nice and hot, vented it a bit just to see if it would make a difference and now it's waiting to be used. I'll order another pot and we'll see. Considering high limit is a capillary type that you can…
