Water boiler Stalgast 751209

A water boiler heats water rapidly by passing an electric current through a built-in heating element submerged in the tank. The element transfers heat directly to the water, raising its temperature to the set level without the delay of a kettle or the energy loss of a hob. This method provides a continuous supply of hot water at the required temperature, essential for tea, coffee, and cooking tasks in a busy kitchen.

To operate, fill the tank through the top opening until the liquid level indicator shows the desired volume. Set the thermostat dial between +30 °C and +100 °C to match the water temperature needed. The power indicator light confirms the unit is drawing current, while the scale indicator light signals when descaling is due. Once the water reaches the set temperature, the boiler maintains it automatically, ready for dispensing through the non-drip tap. The removable drip tray catches any spills, keeping the worktop dry.

The boiler is constructed from highly polished stainless steel, chosen for its resistance to corrosion and ease of cleaning. The lower housing is designed to stay cooler than the tank, reducing the risk of burns when the unit is touched during operation. A safety thermostat prevents overheating by cutting power if the water temperature exceeds the set range.

The 2.4 kW power rating means the boiler requires a dedicated circuit capable of handling the load without tripping. The 230 V voltage matches the standard single-phase supply in British commercial kitchens. The 9 litre volume provides enough hot water for multiple servings without constant refilling, while the compact footprint of 241 mm diameter and 480 mm height fits under most worktop cupboards.

Cleaning involves emptying the tank, removing the drip tray and tap for washing, and descaling when the indicator light comes on. The polished stainless steel surfaces wipe clean with a damp cloth, and the removable parts can be washed in a sink or dishwasher.

The thermostat adjustment range from +30 °C to +100 °C allows the boiler to supply water at temperatures suitable for brewing tea, making instant coffee, or filling bain-maries. The safety thermostat ensures the unit shuts off if the primary thermostat fails, preventing damage or hazards.
