Equipment Description  
Your Groen HY-5G or (2)HY-5G HyPerSteam  
Convection Steamer is designed to give years of  
service. It has a stainless steel cavity (cooking  
chamber) which is served by an independent  
atmospheric steam generator which is gas-heated. A  
powerful blower circulates the steam in the cavity to  
increase heating efficiency.  
Each cavity holds up to five steam table pans (12" x  
20" x 2½" deep). An 18 gauge stainless steel case  
encloses the cavity, the steam generator and the  
control compartment that houses electrical  
components. Door hinges are reversible (the door  
may be set to open from the left or right). Operating  
Controls are on the front panel.  
The HY-5G steamer holds five standard  
12" x 20" x 2½" steamer pans.  
The HY-5G steamer is equipped with fully electronic  
controls and a button-activated, pre-programmed  
CLEAN cycle. These units are readily identified by  
their unique control panels. The On-Off switch is  
operated by touch pad controls, and the distinctive  
symbol for steam is integrated into the panel.  
The drain system on all models includes a spray  
condenser, which helps keep steam from escaping  
from the chamber and cools drain water.

Water Quality and Treatment  
It is essential to supply the steam generator with water  
that will not form scale. Even though the steam  
generator/boiler is engineered to minimize scale  
formation, scale development depends on the  
hardness of your water and the number of hours you  
operate the equipment each day.  
Most water supplies contain minerals which form scale.  
It is this scale which could lead to an early component  
failure.  
Your local water utility can tell you about the minerals  
in your water. The water going to the steam generator  
should have between 30 and 40 parts per million (ppm)  
total dissolved solids (TDS) and should have a pH  
(acidity rating) of 7.0 to 9.0. Please follow these  
simple precautions:  
1. The best way to prevent scale is to use a Groen  
PureSteem™ Water Treatment System which has  
been specifically designed for Groen steamers and  
combination ovens. Do not rely on unproven  
water treatment systems sold for scale  
HY-5G  
prevention and removal. They are not  
specifically designed to work with Groen  
steamers and combination ovens.  
2. A well-maintained water treatment system and a  
regular cartridge replacement schedule is  
essential.  
3. Using a Groen PureSteem™ Water Treatment  
System will provide longer steam generator/boiler  
life, higher steam capacity, and reduce  
maintenance requirements.  
4. If you notice a slowdown in steam production or an  
increase in deliming, have the steamer checked for  
scale build-up. This could be an indication that the  
water treatment cartridges need replacing. Heavy  
scale reduces the unit’s ability to boil water, and  
can even cause component failure.  
MINIMIZE SCALE PROBLEMS BY INSTALLING  
AND MAINTAINING A GROEN PureSteem™  
WATER TREATMENT SYSTEM AND BY DELIMING  
THE STEAMER REGULARLY.  
The Groen HY-5G Steamer features two separate  
water inlets — one for the steam generator/boiler  
(treated water), the other for the spray condenser  
(untreated water). The second intake will reduce  
treatment requirements resulting in significant savings.  
(2)HY-5GF  
The second water connection can reduce treated  
water requirements.  
The dual water connections are side by side on the  
rear of the unit. When seen from the back of the unit,  
the treated water intake is on the left.

However, for easy service at least 12 inches  
clearance is required for the right side of the unit,  
and it may not be installed within 12 inches of a  
heat source, as stated in the Caution above.  
2. Gas Supply Connection  
Connection to the gas supply can be completed  
with ½” NPT pipe or approved equivalent.  
Although the immediate connection to the  
appliance is ½” NPT, gas supply piping must be  
large enough to provide 62,000 BTU/hr/cavity.  
Supply pressure must be at least 4.5” W.C.  
(maximum 14” W.C.) for natural gas or 12” W.C.  
(maximum 14” W.C.) for LP gas. In Canada, the  
installation must conform to the Canadian Gas  
Code, CAN 1-B149, Installation Codes for Gas  
Burning Appliances and Equipment and/or local  
codes. Check all gas connections for leaks prior  
to unit operation.  
The unit must be installed in a well-ventilated room  
with an adequate air supply. The steamer must be  
installed beneath a ventilation hood, since gas  
combustion products exit the appliance.  
Any item which might obstruct or restrict the flow of  
air for combustion and ventilation must be removed.  
Do not obstruct the flue cover or any front, side, rear,  
or top vents after installation.  
The area directly around the appliance must be  
cleared of all combustible material. The installation  
must conform with local codes or, in the absence of  
local codes, with the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI  
Z223.1, latest edition, including the following:  
The unit and its individual shutoff valve must be  
disconnected from the gas supply system during  
any pressure testing of that system at test pressures  
in excess of ½ PSI (3.45 kPa). It must be isolated  
from the gas supply piping system by closing its  
individual manual shutoff valve during any pressure  
testing of the gas supply piping system at test  
pressures equal to or less than ½ PSI (3.45 kPa).  
1. Electrical Supply Connection

After the unit has been connected to the gas  
supply, all gas joints must be checked for leaks.  
No flame should be used when checking for  
leaks. A thick soap solution or other suitable  
leak detector should be used.  
There must be a free air gap between the end of the  
hose and the building drain. The free air gap should  
be as close as possible to the unit drain. There must  
also be no other elbows or other restrictions between  
the unit drain and the free air gap.  
For a unit on casters, complete connection to the  
gas supply with connectors that comply with the  
standard for connectors for moveable gas

appliances, ANSI Z21.69 — latest edition.  
Restrain movement of the unit by attaching a  
cable or chain to the eyelet (provided at the back  
of the frame) and anchoring the cable or chain to  
the wall or floor. Make the length and location of  
the cable such that the unit cannot pull on the  
gas connection while the cable is connected.  
Install the drain line with a constant downward pitch.  
IMPORTANT: Do not allow water traps in the  
line. A trap can cause pressure build-up in the  
cavity, which may cause the door gasket to leak.  
4. Factory Stacked Units  
2. Water Connection(s)  
This section is applicable only if you are installing  
factory-stacked units. If you plan to stack steamers  
yourself, whether purchasing a new one for stacking  
or a kit to stack two units you already own, you will  
require OM-HY-5G(S), RETROFIT SUPPLEMENT  
(Part Number 121087).  
Install a check valve to prevent back flow in the  
incoming cold water line, as required by local  
plumbing codes. Water pressure in the line  
should be between 30 and 60 PSIG and must  
deliver a flow rate of 1.5 to 3.0 gallons per  
minute. If pressure is above 60 PSIG, a  
pressure regulator will be needed.  
Installing stacked steamers is similar to installing a  
single unit. The steamers are stacked and  
assembled at the factory and delivered with the  
water connections and drain hoses required for a  
single point connection.  
¾ inch female NH connectors (garden hose  
type) are used to attach the water supply to the  
inlet valves. One connector is for the steam  
generator (treated), the other is for the spray  
condenser (untreated). Minimum inside  
diameter of the water feed line is ½ inch. Use  
a washer in the hose connection. Do not allow  
the connection to leak, no matter how slowly. Do  
not over tighten hose connections. Treated  
(softened) water goes to the right (seen from the  
rear of the unit), and untreated water to the left.  
Connections for both are made as shown on  
Page 5. Though not recommended, an adapter  
to use a single water intake is available, P/N  
138473.  
A. Water Connection  
The same water supply connection is used for  
both units. At the water inlet valves, ¾ inch  
female NH connectors (garden hose type) are  
used for the water supplies. There are two  
connections to be made. Treated water  
(softened) is connected to the right valve fitting  
(looking from the rear of the unit) and untreated  
water to the left fitting.  
B. Electrical Supply Connection  
3. Drain Connection  
Separate, individual electrical connections  
will be required for each steamer in the stack.  
Each Steamer must have its own branch  
circuit protection.  
Level the steamer front to back, or pitch it slightly  
to the rear (maximum ¼ inch) by adjusting the  
optional legs or bullet feet on optional stand.  
C. Gas Connection  
A 2 inch ID hose may be attached to the drain  
pipe (supplied).  
Separate gas connections are required for each  
steamer in the stack. Gas supply must be  
adequate under all conditions as listed on  
page 6.  
WARNING:  
DO NOT CONNECT THE DRAIN DIRECTLY TO A  
BUILDING DRAIN. BLOCKING THE DRAIN IS  
HAZARDOUS.

OM-HY-5G  
D. Drain Connection  
Ensure that there is a free air gap between the end  
of the unit drain and the building drain. This gap  
should be as close as possible to the unit drain. Do  
not allow elbows or restrictions between the unit and  
the free air gap.  
Steamers must be leveled front to back, or  
pitched to the rear (maximum ¼ inch) by  
adjusting the bullet feet on the stand.  
A 2 inch ID hose may be attached to the unit  
drain. It must be rated for very hot water.  
CAUTION  
DO NOT USE PLASTIC PIPE. DRAIN MUST BE  
RATED FOR VERY HOT WATER.

When the READY light is displayed, you  
may take any one of the following steps:  
1. Remove all literature and packing materials  
from the interior and exterior of the unit.  
a. Set the timer to the desired time for  
timed steaming.  
2. Make sure the water supply line is open.  
b. Turn the timer knob to the manual ON  
position for continuous steam.  
3. Make sure that the gas supply line is open  
and that the manual knob on the main gas  
valve is turned to the “on” position. This  
valve is located behind the front access  
panel on the right side of the unit.  
c. Let the unit stay at standby temperature.  
4. Turn on electrical service to the unit. The  
HY-5G will not operate without electrical  
power. Do not attempt to operate the unit  
during a power failure.

6. The “trial for ignition” period is roughly 90  
seconds. If the pilot burner does not light  
within about 90 seconds after the switch is  
activated, the ignition system automatically  
stops gas flow to the pilot burner and stops  
the ignition trial. If this happens, turn off the  
pilot switch and repeat the trial for ignition.  
During the initial start-up, the pilot may  
require several trials for ignition until all the  
air is bled from the gas piping. Subsequent  
start-ups should require only about 5  
10. If the HY-5G Steamer behaves as described,  
the unit is functioning correctly and ready for  
use.  
Automatic Operation of Pilot  
Once the pilot burner is lit, it essentially functions as  
a standing pilot. In this state, if the pilot is  
accidentally extinguished (by a very strong gust of  
wind for example), it will re-ignite automatically. The  
unit will completely shut down for a few seconds  
while the pilot is re-ignited. Then the unit will come  
back on and resume operation in the mode and with  
the (running) timer value existing just prior to  
shutdown. The pilot switch may be turned off during  
“off hours” to conserve energy.

NOTE: See Automatic Operation of Pilot at  
the end of this section.  
7. Once the pilot burner flame has been  
established (the green light on the pilot  
switch is on), press the “ON” switch for the  
desired steamer cavity. The steam  
generator will fill with water.  
After the unit has been running, if the pilot burner  
ever fails to re-ignite automatically within 90  
seconds, wait 5 minutes before you attempt to  
reactivate it. In the unlikely event that ignition  
problems persist, contact your authorized Groen  
Service Agency.  
NOTE: The door MUST be closed for the  
main (high) burner to work.  
NOTE: For operation at high altitudes (2000 feet and  
above) please consult the Groen Food Service
