This offer ends in:
The M837 is a three-pot wet-heat warmer that maintains soups, sauces, and prepared hot foods at service temperature using a thermostatically controlled water bath. Each unit holds 21 litres total across three 7-litre stainless steel pots with lids. Footprint is 865×320×375mm and draws 1200W at 220V.
Commercial Application
This bain marie sits on buffet lines, service counters, or back-of-house holding stations where multiple hot items must be held at temperature without scorching. The water bath method distributes heat evenly across the base of each pot. Operators can hold three different soups, sauces, or curries simultaneously during service hours.
Temperature control ranges from 30°C to 85°C, covering both gentle warming and active holding zones. The built-in drain tap empties the water bath at end of shift. Lids reduce heat loss and surface contamination during extended service periods.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What grade of stainless steel is used in the M837 construction?
A: Body and pots are SS201 grade stainless steel at 0.65mm thickness. This grade meets CE food contact standards and resists corrosion in wet-heat environments.
Q: Can the unit operate on 110V supply in North America?
A: The M837 is factory-configured for 220V at 1200W. Operating on 110V requires a step-up transformer rated for continuous 1200W load. Voltage conversion should be specified before dispatch.
Q: Are the pots dishwasher-safe or hand-wash only?
A: Stainless steel pots and lids tolerate commercial dishwasher cycles. Remove pots from the water bath before washing. Do not immerse the main chassis in water.
Q: What is the minimum water level required in the bath during operation?
A: Water level must cover the heating element completely to prevent dry-fire damage. Minimum depth is typically 30–40mm. Check water level hourly during extended service shifts.
Q: Can additional pots be purchased separately as spares?
A: Replacement 7-litre pots with lids are available through TurcoBazaar parts supply. Quote the M837 model number when ordering to ensure correct diameter and depth compatibility.
