40 Cm Commercial Table-top Griddle Smooth / Ribbed Surface Hot Plate Griddle Tall 700 Series

Q: Is the cooking surface chrome or steel?

A: The 70DE-M175 is available with either a 10 mm chrome plate or a steel plate. Chrome provides a smoother non-stick surface for eggs and pancakes. Steel is more durable under heavy spatula use for burgers and proteins.

Q: Does this model run on gas or electric?

A: This unit operates on LPG or natural gas at 3.25 kW thermal output. No electric version is available in this model designation. Gas valve includes thermocouple safety shut-off.

Q: How does the grease channel work and how is it cleaned?

A: A front-mounted grease channel slopes toward a removable drip tray beneath the cooking surface. Fats drain continuously during cooking. The tray slides out for emptying and cleaning after each service shift.

Q: Can this griddle be installed in a food truck?

A: Yes. The 51 kg weight and 40×70×85 cm footprint suit mobile food service installations. Gas supply requires either an onboard LPG cylinder or a regulated natural gas line if the vehicle is equipped for fixed gas.

Q: How is temperature controlled across different cooking zones?

A: A single gas valve controls burner output beneath the entire plate. Operators create temperature zones by adjusting food placement relative to burner position. The 70 cm depth provides cooler zones at the rear for holding or slower cooking.
