LongDescription#@#NA#@@#Cleaning Instructions#@#Unplug the unit and let burners cool before cleaning. Remove the rack and crumb tray; wash with warm, soapy water and rinse. Wipe the interior and stainless steel exterior with mild detergent and a soft cloth; avoid abrasive pads. Clean infrared burners gently and clear vent paths of grease. Inspect and clean gas orifices per Southbend guidelines. Dry all parts completely before reassembly and reconnecting gas.#@@#Additional Info#@#Southbend's P72-CM-NG cheesemelter offers 72" of infrared heating, 80,000 BTU output, dual valve controls, stainless steel build, five rack positions, chrome rack, 90-second preheat, removable crumb tray, and weighs 265 pounds.#@@#General Info#@#Description #@#
This heavy-duty gas cheesemelter delivers concentrated infrared heat and rapid recovery, ensuring kitchens maintain consistent product quality during peak periods. Operators benefit from a robust riser mount unit designed for continuous use and simplified daily maintenance.
Four infrared burners provide focused heat that melts toppings evenly while reducing browning variability. Engineers designed the system for a 90-second preheat time, allowing staff to stage multiple pans with predictable results.
Five-position rack guides enable precise control over product proximity to the heat source for repeatable melt profiles. Technicians can optimize yield by selecting the rack position that matches product thickness or desired finish.
Dual valve control allows independent modulation of heat zones to balance throughput and energy use. Supervisors achieve faster recovery on heavy loads while maintaining adjacent zones at lower temperatures for staging.
The stainless steel exterior resists corrosion and withstands daily cleaning protocols common in commercial kitchens. Managers reduce cosmetic wear and maintain a sanitary surface that meets NSF standards.
A removable crumb tray simplifies debris management and shortens cleaning cycles between service periods. Staff can spend less time on maintenance and more time on productive tasks.
The unit carries CSA and NSF certifications and operates on natural gas at 80,000 BTU total input, with an electrical draw near 23,500 Watts for ignition and controls. Purchasing teams receive verifiable compliance and clear performance metrics for installation planning, ensuring a reliable and efficient kitchen operation.
