11-quart round well
The deep-drawn stainless steel well takes a standard 11-quart round inset. Wells lists adaptor tops for 4-quart and 7-quart insets.
Thermostatic control
A thermostatic control sets the holding temperature, with a temperature-ready light. A high-limit prevents overheating.
Tubular heating element
A tubular element under the well spreads the heat evenly: 825 W at 120V or 620/825 W at 208/240V.
Wellslok mounting
The one-piece flange seats on a gasket, and Wellslok clamps tighten it to the counter from below with a screwdriver.
Built-in drain
A 1/2" NPT drain lets you empty the water without lifting the unit. Wells recommends a union for easier service.
Delivery and setup
- Inspect the box for damage before you sign, and note any damage on the delivery receipt.
- Install it in an all-metal counter with wiring and control enclosures that meet national and local electrical codes; an electrician makes the final connection.
- Field wiring per Wells: 14 AWG Cu, 90°C. Do not mount the control in the hot area next to the well.
- Leave the unit reachable from below for service, and keep the rating plate accessible.
- Insets with lids, an 8 oz. soup ladle, a drain valve extension kit, adaptor tops, a non-metal counter adapter kit and 72" control wiring are Wells options, not part of this listing.
Questions buyers ask
What size inset does it take?
A standard 11-quart round inset. Wells sells adaptor tops for 4-quart and 7-quart insets. The inset is not part of this listing.
What power does it need?
Order 120V (825 W, 6.9 A) or 208/240V (620 W at 208V, 825 W at 240V, 3.0/3.4 A). Both are single phase and hard-wired.
What is the 220-240V choice?
It is the export version, 220-240V single phase at 825 W, which Wells lists as SS10TD-230. Wells notes that export models cannot be returned.
