Built for high-throughput kitchens needing precise, repeatable searing, this compact infrared broiler delivers concentrated radiant heat while minimizing space. Manufacturers of institutional and commercial foodservice equipment designed it for rapid caramelization and consistent crust formation at service scale. Operators benefit from serviceability features and regulatory approvals that simplify integration into schools, hospitals, bars, and restaurants.
LongDescription#@#NA#@@#Cleaning Instructions#@#Unplug or shut off gas supply and allow broiler to cool. Remove racks and wipe interior with mild detergent and warm water. Scrub infrared burner face gently with non-abrasive pad; avoid soaking control valves. Clean grease trays and vents; dispose of residue safely. Rinse surfaces, dry with lint-free cloth, and reassemble. Inspect seals and burners for wear. Regular cleaning prevents contamination, fire risk, higher utility use, equipment failure, and inspection failures.#@@#Additional Info#@#Southbend's P36-NFR-LP 48" Liquid Propane infrared broiler delivers 40,000 BTU output with stainless steel front and sides, riser mount, counter-balanced rack, manual controls, CSA and NSF certification for commercial kitchens.#@@#General Info#@#Description #@#

#@@# Compact Footprint#@#
With a 36" cooking width and 15.5" depth, the unit fits tight line configurations without sacrificing capacity. Its compact size allows installation on risers and simplifies retrofits in existing cooklines.
#@@# Infrared Heat#@#
The infrared system produces 40,000 BTU of radiant energy for immediate surface searing and faster cook times. Chefs achieve consistent Maillard reaction results across pans and racks, boosting throughput during peak service.
#@@# Dual Valve Control#@#
Dual valve control enables independent heat management across the grilling surface for zoned temperature staging. Staff can program techniques requiring separate hot and holding areas, minimizing product waste.
#@@# Counterbalanced Rack#@#
The counterbalanced rack system allows smooth vertical adjustment under load, reducing operator fatigue and protecting plated product integrity. It supports quick changes between cooking elevations while maintaining stable positioning.
#@@# Stainless Construction#@#
Stainless steel front and side panels resist corrosion and simplify sanitation. Maintenance teams encounter fewer surface failures and meet institutional kitchen sanitary standards.
#@@# Regulatory Certification#@#
This broiler meets CSA and NSF standards, ensuring compliance with safety and sanitation requirements for schools, hospitals, and other regulated foodservice environments. Facilities managers benefit from easier procurement processes and seamless integration into existing kitchens.
