This offer ends in:
The M403 wet bain marie holds three 1/3 GN pans at service temperature using indirect water-bath heating. It runs on 600W single-phase power and comes with pans, lids, and a fitted UK plug. Used in hotels, restaurants, and catering operations to maintain prepared food at safe holding temperature during service.
Commercial Application
Bain marie units sit on service counters or buffet lines where pre-cooked food must remain between 63°C and 70°C for extended periods. The water jacket distributes heat evenly beneath the pans, preventing scorching and reducing moisture loss. The drain tap allows operators to empty the water reservoir without lifting the unit.
During breakfast, lunch, or dinner service, chefs transfer prepared dishes into the GN pans and monitor temperature with probe thermometers. The M403 maintains three separate components—sauces, vegetables, or proteins—at holding temperature without cross-contamination. The 540×340mm footprint fits standard counter sections in compact kitchens and mobile catering setups.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is the M403 suitable for continuous commercial use in a hotel breakfast buffet?
A: Yes. The 600W wet-heat system maintains holding temperature for 4–6 hours of continuous service. Water levels must be checked hourly and refilled via the reservoir opening to prevent element damage.
Q: Does TurcoBazaar supply this bain marie to North America and Middle East buyers?
A: Yes. We ship to USA, Canada, UAE, Saudi Arabia, and other regions. The unit is CE-compliant; North American buyers should verify local voltage compatibility (230V requires step-down transformer in 120V markets).

A: TurcoBazaar provides technical guidance on thermostat calibration, element replacement, and water reservoir maintenance. Spare parts ship from UK stock or Turkey-based manufacturer depending on component.
