INSTALLATION, OPERATION AND CARE OF
TILTING BRAISING PANS
MODELS VG30, VG40, VE30 & VE40
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS FOR FUTURE USE
GENERAL
Vulcan Tilting Braising Pans are available in two sizes. Models VG30 and VE30 have a 30-gallon (114 L)
capacity, and Models VG40 and VE40 have a 40-gallon (151 L) capacity.
The tilting braising pan is a versatile piece of equipment. It allows you to stew, simmer, pan fry, braise,
grill or sauté, and all with a very uniform heat pattern.
Standard features on all models include thermostat, manual lift, drop-away food pan support and four
anged feet.
Optional features include automatic power lift and casters.
Your Vulcan braising pan is produced with quality workmanship and material. Proper installation, usage
and maintenance will result in many years of satisfactory performance.
Vulcan suggests that you thoroughly read this entire manual and carefully follow all of the instructions
provided.
INSTALLATION
Before installing, verify that the electrical service and gas supply (natural or propane) agree with the
specications on the rating plate located on the left front edge of the table top.

damaged, save the packaging material and contact the carrier within 5 working days of delivery.
LOCATION
For Gas-Powered Braising Pans Only
The braising pan must be kept free and clear from combustible substances. The braising pan, when
installed, must have minimum clearance from combustible construction of 2" (5 cm)
from the sides
and 6" (15 cm) from the rear. Minimum clearance from noncombustible construction is 0" from the sides
and 6" (15 cm) from the rear.
– 5 –
The installation location must allow adequate clearances for servicing and proper operation. Recommended
clearances are 24" (61 cm) on the sides and back (for servicing), and 36" (91 cm) on the front.
The braising pan must be installed so that the ow of combustion and ventilation air will not be obstructed.
Adequate clearance for air openings into the combustion chamber must be provided. Make sure there
is an adequate supply of air in the room suitable for the amount of combustion gas feeding the braising
pan burners.
Do not permit fans to blow directly at the braising pan. Wherever possible, avoid open windows next to
the braising pan. Avoid wall-type fans which create air crosscurrents within the room.
Gas-Powered Braising Pans Equipped with Casters (Optional)
If casters are assembled to the braising pan, the installation must be made using:
1. A connector (not supplied by Vulcan) that complies with the Standard for Connectors for Movable
Gas Appliances, ANSI Z21.69 (latest edition) or Connectors for Movable Gas Appliances, CAN/
CGA-6.16 (latest edition).
2. A quick-disconnect device that complies with the Standard for Quick-Disconnect Devices for

GAS CONNECTIONS (See Fig. 2)
All gas supply connections and any pipe joint compound used must be resistant to the action of propane gases.
Connect a
3
/4" (nominal) gas supply to the braising pan. Recommended incoming gas line pressure is 7"
W.C. (Water Column) (48.3 kPa) for natural gas or 11" W.C. (75.8 kPa) for propane gas.
Make sure the pipes are clean and free of obstructions, dirt and piping compound.
Codes require that a gas shuto valve be installed in the gas line ahead of the tilting braising pan.
Natural gas and propane gas braising pans are equipped with xed orices, and no adjustment is necessary.
The manifold is set at 3.7 W.C. (Water Column) (25.5 kPa) for natural gas and 10" W.C. (68.9 kPa) for
propane gas.
Prior to lighting, check all joints in the gas supply line for leaks. Use soap and water
solution. Do not use an open ame.
After piping has been checked for leaks, all piping receiving gas should be fully purged to remove air.
The electrical control circuit must be connected (see CONTROL CIRCUIT POWER CONNECTION in this
manual).
TESTING THE GAS SUPPLY SYSTEM
When test pressures exceed
1
/2 psig (3.45 kPa), the tilting braising pan and its individual shuto valve
must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system.
When test pressures are
1
/2 psig (3.45 kPa) or less, the tilting braising pan must be isolated from the gas
supply system by closing its individual manual shuto valve.
VENTILATION
DO NOT obstruct the ow of ue gases from the ue duct located on the rear of the tilting braising pan.
It is recommended that the ue gases be ventilated to the outside of the building through a ventilation
system installed by qualied personnel.
From the termination of the braising pan ue vent to the lters of the hood venting system, an 18"
(46
cm) minimum clearance must be maintained. The ue is not to be directly connected to the ventilation
system.
Local jurisdictions may require a ventilation system to exhaust the steam from this appliance. Clearance
should be provided for the lid to be raised without interference with the hood. A ceiling that is too low may
not allow for an installation of a hood to meet this requirement.
CONTROL CIRCUIT POWER CONNECTION — GAS BRAISING PANS (See Fig. 2)
Appliances equipped with a exible electric supply cord are provided with a three-
prong grounding plug. It is imperative that this plug be connected into a properly grounded three-

STEAMING INSERTS (Optional)
Your tilting braising pan can be used for steaming frozen and fresh foods. The 30-gallon (114 L) pans
(Models VE30 or VG30) can be loaded with a maximum of two 12" x 20" x 4"
(30 cm x 50.8 cm x
10 cm) deep steaming pans. The 40-gallon (151 L) pan (Models VE40 or VG40) will accept up to three
steam pans of this same size.
To use the braising pan for steaming, ll the pan with 6 to 7 gallons (23 to 26 L) of water (approximately
2" [5 cm] deep) for 30-gallon (114 L) models and 8 to 9 gallons (30 to 34 L) of water (approximately 2"
[5 cm] deep) for 40-gallon (151 L) models.
Turn the braising pan ON. Set the thermostat at 212°F (100°C). Allow the water to come to a boil. Then
change the thermostat setting to 250°F (121°C) and carefully place the steaming inserts into the pan as
shown in Fig. 5. Place the pan with product into the steaming insert. Close the lid and allow steaming
for the desired time.
Periodically inspect the water level inside the braising pan. Add water if the water level is less than
1
/2"
(1 cm) deep.
To use the braising pan as a food warmer or bain marie, follow the same procedure as for steaming, but
increase the depth of the water to allow the bottom and part of the sides of the steaming inserts to be
immersed in water. Set the thermostat for the holding or warming temperature desired.
The steaming inserts can be ordered from your dealer.
Fig. 5
SUGGESTED USES FOR YOUR BRAISING PAN
DO NOT use the braising pan for deep fat frying. Restrict frying activity to shallow pan frying (oil lm not
more than
1
/8" [0.3 cm] thick) or sautéing.
A tilting braising pan is quite versatile. It can be used for roasting, simmering, boiling, sautéing, searing,
frying, warming, holding, proong, thawing, browning, steaming, braising, griddling or stewing. It can
be used as an oversized skillet, as a bain marie, as a proong oven, as a stock pot, as a kettle or as an
even-heat range top. It can be used for cooking breakfasts, lunches and dinners.
Your Vulcan tilting braising pan is a multi-purpose unit that can be used for virtually any type of cooking,
except deep fat frying, with great speed, in large volume and with considerable savings in labor and energy.

CLEANING
Disconnect the electrical power to the machine and follow lockout / tagout procedures
before cleaning.
Clean your braising pan regularly. Keep the plate surface clean. To produce evenly cooked, perfectly
braised products, keep the pan surface free from carbonized grease. Carbonized grease on the surface
hinders the transfer of heat from the pan surface to the food. This results in spotty browning and loss
of cooking eciency. Worst of all, carbonized grease tends to cling to the foods, giving them a highly
unsatisfactory and unappetizing appearance.
After Each Use
Clean the pan surface with a brush or exible spatula.
Remove the strainer (Fig. 6) at the pouring lip of the braising pan by pulling it toward the back of the pan.
Clean the strainer in a sink. Rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft, clean cloth. Replace strainer.
Fig. 6
Once a Day
Thoroughly clean the back, sides and front of the pan. Also clean the inside and outside surfaces of the lid.
Once a Week
Clean the pan surface thoroughly. If necessary, use a griddle stone or brush on the surface. A detergent
may be used on the pan surface to help clean it, but be sure the detergent is thoroughly removed.
Clean other stainless steel surfaces with a damp cloth and polish with a soft, dry cloth. To remove
discolorations, use a nonabrasive cleaner. If the braising pan usage is very high, consider going through
the weekly cleaning procedures more often than once a week.
When cleaning the braising pan, it is helpful to ll the pan with approximately 10 gallons (38 L) of warm
water and add detergent. After cleaning, raise the braising pan to drain all water (place a bucket or
container under the pouring lip). Then repeat the procedures for rinsing with clean water.
