This offer ends in:
The M401 holds a full-size 1/1 GN pan at controlled wet-bath temperature for continuous service. It runs on 600W single-phase mains power with standard UK plug fitment. Hotels, restaurants, and catering operations use it to hold hot prepared food during extended service periods.
Commercial Application
Wet bain marie units solve the problem of holding cooked food at safe serving temperature without further cooking or drying. The water bath transfers gentle, even heat to the pan. This unit fits into buffet lines, pass counters, or back-of-house holding stations where plated food is assembled under time pressure.
Staff fill the GN pan with prepared food before service begins. The tap allows water level adjustment without lifting the pan. A single 1/1 pan holds approximately 14 litres of product, sufficient for mid-volume outlets or single-dish holding in larger operations.
