The EMPIRE
EUDS provides unequaled
cooking line versatility,flexibility and convenience.
One
connection for
all your utility needs
The EMPIRE Utility Distribution
System (EUDS) is designed to meet all electrical and plumbing requirements
for your kitchen appliances. A two compartment raceway houses either an
electric copper bus bar or wireway which is completely isolated from the
plumbing supply manifolds.
Efficiency for
Today - Flexibility for Tomorrow
The utility distribution system
allows greater flexibility over conventional utility connections. It is
designed to provide additional capacity according to job specifications.
Spare connection points are provided for future cooking equipment
expansion; therefore adding new equipment requires minimal effort.
Rearranging the cooking line-up can be accomplished in a matter of
minutes, especially when equipment is on casters.
Electrical
Riser: Main power connection is made to the main
circuit breaker which has a shunt trip and is mounted in the electrical
riser.
Bus bar
systems: Electrical power is fed through the main
circuit breaker to the bus bar system in the raceway. Each appliance is
fed from the bus bar through individually sized circuit breakers located
along the raceway.
Wireway
systems: Electrical power is fed through a main
circuit breaker to a distribution panel which contains individual branch
breakers. Each appliance is fed from the individual breakers which are
wired to each receptacle located along the raceway.
Plumbing
Riser: The plumbing riser houses manual
(quarter-turn) shut-off valves for each incoming main supply line located
in the UDS. The plumbing manifolds are provided with stub-outs along the
raceway for the individual plumbing connections. Each stub-out is equipped
with a manual (quarter-turn) shut-off valve.
FEATURES:

SPECIFICATIONS
DESCRIPTION:
Utility Distribution System
shall be the EMPIRE
model EUDI (or EUDW). Overall size shall be as shown on drawings. Systems
shall have two vertical risers, one on each end, with one dedicated to
electrical and the other to plumbing. The horizontal distribution raceway
between the risers shall be separated into electrical and plumbing
compartments and each shall be completely enclosed and water tight with
removable access panels. The risers and raceway shall be constructed of 16
gauge, type 304 stainless steel, #4 finish. The system shall be completely
pre-wired and pre-plumbed with one (1) final connection point for all
incoming services. A circuit protected dual convenience outlet shall be
provided on each riser. Service connections shall be located behind easy
lift out access panels.
ELECTRICAL:
- Bus Bar Systems: The
electrical raceway shall be a four (4) conductor copper bus bar system
having balanced load and phases and shall be completely isolated from
the plumbing supply manifolds. Point of use circuit breakers shall be
mounted on connection plates which are located on the peaked top of
the raceway and protected by a water proof stainless steel hinged
cover. The breakers shall be easily accessible to the operator. The
connection plates shall be easily interchangeable with spare blank
plates which shall be provided for future expansion or changes. A main
circuit breaker with a built-in 120 VAC rated shunt trip shall be
furnished in the electrical riser and require a single point incoming
connection. Terminal block connections shall be provided for field
interconnection between the shunt trip and the fire protection system
for power shut-off in the event of a fire.
- Wireway Systems: The
electrical system shall consist of a main circuit breaker which feeds
power to a distribution panel located in the electrical riser
containing individual branch breakers. Each appliance is fed from the
individual breakers which are wired to each receptacle located along
the raceway and shall be completely isolated from the plumbing supply
manifolds. The main circuit breaker shall be equipped with a built-in
120 VAC rated shunt trip and shall be located in the electrical riser
requiring a single point incoming connection. Terminal block
connections shall be provided for field interconnection between the
shunt trip and the fire protection system for power shut-off in the
event of a fire. All outlets shall be equipped with grounding type
receptacles having specific NEMA polarized configurations and located
on the under side (Model EUDI) or front side (Model EUDW) of the
raceway at each equipment location. Outlets are matched to the cord
and plug sets supplied with equipment. On the Model EUDI, twist lock
cord and plug sets are provided for equipment supplied without cords.
On the Model EUDW, straight blade cord and plug sets are provided for
equipment supplied without cords.
