- Model: PH703
The PH703 is a GN2/1 size gastronorm pan measuring 530 × 650 × 65 mm. It holds bulk food portions during prep, cooking, storage, and service in commercial kitchens. Hotels, restaurants, catering operations, and institutional kitchens use this standard-size container for batch production and hot-holding applications.
Commercial Application
GN2/1 pans fit standard bain-marie units, blast chillers, combi ovens, and refrigerated prep tables. The 65 mm depth accommodates cooked proteins, sauces, stews, and prepared vegetables during multi-stage kitchen workflows. Staff transfer pans directly from oven to holding cabinet without decanting.
During peak service, kitchen teams pull portions from these pans on hot lines or cold stations. The 65 mm depth balances volume capacity with ease of access under pressure. One pan holds approximately 15–20 litres depending on fill level and food density.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What grade of stainless steel is used in the PH703 pan?
A: The pan uses food-grade stainless steel meeting CE certification requirements for commercial kitchen use. Steel grade is either 304 or 430, both of which resist corrosion and withstand repeated thermal cycling. Confirm specific grade with TurcoBazaar if material specifications are critical for your operation.
Q: What is the load-bearing capacity of this gastronorm pan?
A: The 65 mm depth holds approximately 15–20 litres depending on fill level. Structural capacity supports typical food weights encountered in batch cooking and portioning. The pan maintains rigidity when lifted full from a bain-marie or oven rack.
Q: Does the PH703 fit standard gastronorm racking and oven guides?
A: Yes. GN2/1 is a standardised dimension (530 × 650 mm) compatible with commercial combi ovens, blast chillers, bain-marie units, and refrigerated prep tables. Verify guide spacing in older equipment to confirm 65 mm depth clearance.
Q: Can this pan go directly from oven to blast chiller?
A: Stainless steel construction allows thermal shock transitions common in commercial cook-chill operations. The pan withstands temperature swings from 200°C+ cooking to rapid chilling without warping. Always follow your blast chiller manufacturer's loading guidelines.
Q: Is the PH703 suitable for high-volume dishwashing cycles?
A: Yes. The pan withstands commercial dishwasher temperatures above 80°C and exposure to alkaline detergents. Smooth interior surfaces shed food residue easily. Stainless steel does not degrade under repeated wash cycles typical in hotel and restaurant operations.
