The DTC1303 is a GN1/1 electric chafing dish that holds 6 litres in a wet-heat water pan configuration. It operates on 400W mains electric power and maintains food at serving temperature during buffet service, banqueting and catered events. The unit weighs 4.5 kg and measures 570×360×250mm.

Commercial Application

Chafing dishes extend hot food holding time during buffet service where plated meals are not practical. The wet-heat method uses a water pan beneath the food pan to distribute heat evenly and prevent scorching. This unit accepts standard GN1/1 inserts and eliminates the need for fuel canisters or open flame in front-of-house service areas.

During banquet service, catering teams load hot food from kitchen holding cabinets into pre-heated chafing dishes on the buffet line. The 6-litre capacity handles main courses, side dishes or hot appetisers for groups of 20–30 guests. Electric operation allows setup in venues without ventilation systems required for flame-based units.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What grade of stainless steel is used in the DTC1303 construction?

A: The unit uses stainless steel across all surfaces. Zodex typically fabricates this model range in type-201 or type-430 stainless, both suitable for commercial food service. Confirm grade specification with TurcoBazaar if your operation requires type-304 austenitic steel for specific hygiene protocols.

Q: What is the maximum food weight capacity for the GN1/1 pan?

A: The water pan and frame support approximately 8–10 kg of food weight when the food pan is filled to working capacity. Do not exceed the 6-litre volume rating or place additional weight on the lid during service. Overloading reduces heat transfer efficiency and can deform the water pan.

Q: Can the heating temperature be adjusted during service?

A: The unit has a thermostat control that regulates water temperature to maintain food holding range. Adjustment range is typically 30–85°C depending on dial position. The system is designed for holding temperature, not active cooking or reheating from cold.

Q: Does the unit include adjustable legs or require a flat surface?

A: The DTC1303 has a flat base and must sit on a level buffet table or service counter. No adjustable feet are fitted. Ensure the table surface is stable and heat-resistant, as the base will conduct warmth during extended operation.

Q: Is a custom size available or can multiple units be linked together?

A: This model is manufactured to fixed GN1/1 dimensions and is not available in custom sizes. Multiple units can be positioned side-by-side on buffet lines, each operating independently on its own power connection. Ensure adequate table space and electrical socket access for multi-unit setups.
