Stop settling for slow cook times and inconsistent results. This electric, boilerless convection steamer combines rapid steam penetration with precise control to sustain high-volume production while preserving food quality. Its stacked single-compartment design increases capacity without expanding the footprint, delivering reliable throughput for institutional and commercial kitchens.
LongDescription#@#NA#@@#Cleaning Instructions#@#Unplug steamer, wait until interior cools, then remove pans and racks. Mix mild detergent with warm water (use gallons or liters as needed) and scrub trays with non-abrasive pad. Flush drain kit and wipe chamber with soft cloth to remove residue. Clean exterior stainless surfaces with approved cleaner and dry to prevent corrosion. De-scale if hard water forms, following CSA and manufacturer guidelines.

Stop settling for slow cook times and inconsistent results. This electric, boilerless convection steamer combines rapid steam penetration with precise control to sustain high-volume production while preserving food quality. Its stacked single-compartment design increases capacity without expanding the footprint, delivering reliable throughput for institutional and commercial kitchens.
#@@# Capacity Handling#@#
This unit supports twelve 12" x 20" x 2.5" pans per compartment, allowing continuous batch staging and large run cycles in compact real estate. Operators can load significant product volume and maintain steady output for cafeteria lines, catering operations, or banquet services.
#@@# Steam System Design#@#
The boilerless convection system generates on-demand steam and forces heated air through the compartment, reducing warm-up time and eliminating the need for a separate boiler plant. Facilities achieve consistent cook profiles and minimize maintenance points associated with external steam sources.
#@@# Power And Performance#@#
The steamer delivers 12,000 watts at 480v/60/3-ph, supplying robust energy for intensive duty cycles and rapid recovery between loads. Engineers seeking predictable electrical requirements will value the clear specification for panel planning and load balancing.
#@@# Control And Modes#@#
An adjustable thermostat, 60-minute timer, auto-fill, and continuous cook and hold mode grant operators precise process control across diverse menu items. Staff maintain product temperature and texture through selectable settings that support batch cooking, finishing, and extended hold periods.
#@@# Construction And Serviceability#@#
The unit features 304 stainless steel interior and exterior construction, 4" adjustable legs, and an included drain kit for straightforward sanitation and floor leveling. Technicians access service points easily, while durable surfaces withstand routine cleaning and heavy use.
