Operating & Cleaning Guidelines

1. Setup & Commissioning: Ensure an authorised gas fitter connects the Natural Gas line (1/2" NPT), checks supply operating pressure, and completes official commissioning. Level the unit using the 6-inch adjustable stainless steel legs.

2. Filling & Boiling: Ensure the 1/4" drain valve is closed. Use the front-positioned water inlet tap to fill the 304 stainless steel tank to the marked water line (27 litres). Light the pilot and set the thermostat control. The 150 MJ/h burners will quickly bring the tank to a rolling boil.

3. Daily Hygiene & Starch Removal: During service, allow starch foam to flow over the starch-purifying overflow channel. At the end of service, turn off the gas supply, allow water to cool, open the 1/4" full-port drain valve, and drain the tank completely. Wipe down the open-pot 304 stainless steel interior, baskets, and hanger plate with a damp microfibre cloth and a mild food-safe commercial degreaser.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Does the Gasmax PC150-6 require an electrical connection?

No. The Gasmax PC150-6 operates using a millivolt control valve system and a standing pilot light, generating its own low-voltage control power from the pilot flame, meaning no 240V power plug is required.

2. How does the starch overflow system work?

The cooker features an integrated water purifying overflow channel near the top of the tank. As water boils, excess starch, foam, and impurities rise to the top and skim off automatically into the drain channel, keeping the boiling water cleaner for longer.

3. What size baskets are included with the PC150-6?

The unit comes supplied standard with six round stainless steel mesh baskets measuring 125 mm in diameter by 132 mm deep, perfect for individual portions of pasta, ramen, udon, or dumplings.

4. Is the water tank made of high-grade stainless steel?

Yes. The 27-litre open-pot tank is manufactured from 304-grade stainless steel, offering superior protection against pitting and corrosion caused by salted cooking water.

5. What warranty covers the Gasmax PC150-6 pasta cooker?

The PC150-6 comes backed standard by a 2-Year Parts and Labour Warranty, which extends by an additional 2 Years for Parts Only when registered online within 14 days of invoice.
