Description
Crown SCDA-2 “Do-All” Dual-Pressure Steamer
36" cabinet base • 2 compartments • Top compartment switchable from pressure to pressure-lessBoost batch speed, cut ticket times and keep delicate foods perfectly moist with Crown’s steam-coil heated “Do-All” compartment cooker. The SCDA-2 gives you true dual-mode versatility—pressure cooking for rapid production and pressure-less steaming for gentle, large-volume holding—in one compact 36-inch footprint, all while meeting CSD-1, cCSAus and NSF standards right out of the box.
Why You’ll Love It
- Dual-mode top compartment: toggle between 6 psi pressure cooking and free-venting pressure-less steaming at the turn of a switch.
- High-efficiency steam-coil boiler operates at 9-11 psi and needs only an external steam supply (25-45 psi, 200 lb/hr).
- Manual 60-minute control per compartment with loud buzzer for “walk-away” reliability.
- Automatic boiler blowdown extends component life and simplifies maintenance.
- Factory-supplied water treatment system protects against scale and preserves warranty.
- All-welded 304 stainless-steel interior & exterior—built for the punishment of busy commercial kitchens.
- Doors swing a full 180° and use a wheel-and-screw latch for a positive gasket seal.
- End-of-cycle auto-vent and condensate drain allows safe door opening and rapid reloads.
- Six-inch stainless legs with four adjustable flanged feet for easy, code-compliant floor bolting.
- CSD-1 code package, ASME-stamped boiler, National Board registered, cCSAus & NSF listed.
