Vollrath’s 18" aluminum hard-wired medium-wattage Cayenne heat strip delivers infrared holding heat for foodservice operations needing consistent temperature maintenance without bulky equipment. Designed for strip applications, it mounts over steam tables, buffets, and hot-holding lines to preserve texture and temperature while minimizing footprint and energy use.
#@@# Aluminum Construction#@#
The aluminum housing ensures efficient thermal conduction and resists corrosion in humid environments. Its single-piece design reduces seams where grease accumulates, simplifying cleaning and sanitation.
#@@# Hard-Wired Installation#@#
Built for permanent installs, the hard-wired setup eliminates loose cords and integrates into existing electrical runs. Electricians connect the unit directly to branch circuits for secure power delivery and reliable operation.
#@@# Medium Wattage Output#@#
Rated for medium wattage, the strip emits steady radiant heat suitable for delicate hot-holding tasks without overcooking or drying products. Operators maintain product quality while managing energy consumption compared to higher-wattage options.
#@@# 18 Inch Length#@#
An 18" span covers narrow serving lines and side warmer areas where space limits equipment choices. Its compact length allows multiple strips to be positioned in sequence for even coverage or to target short sections.
#@@# Metal Heating Rod Element#@#
The unit uses a metal heating rod element to produce controlled infrared heat with rapid response to power changes. This element ensures consistent surface temperatures and reduces thermal lag during transitions.
