Available Options
The R97 is a 30 cm electric griddle with a smooth steel cooking surface and 2000 W heating element. It operates on 230 V single-phase power, handling burgers, eggs, bacon, pancakes and vegetables across a 60 cm working width. Typical deployment includes breakfast cafés, burger outlets, food trucks and hotel breakfast stations.
Commercial Application
Positioned on front-line prep counters for high-volume flat-top cooking. Operators control surface temperature via dial thermostat to create multiple heat zones for simultaneous product types. Grease channels direct oil and fat runoff toward collection trays during continuous service.
During breakfast rushes, one operator manages eggs on the left zone and bacon on the right. Lunch service sees burger patties and onions cooking side-by-side. The 2000 W element maintains recovery speed when cold product loads onto the plate.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is the cooking surface chrome-plated or plain steel?
A: The R97 uses smooth steel plate without chrome plating. This surface allows metal spatulas and scrapers during service. Operators season the plate with cooking oil before first use to build non-stick patina.
Q: Does this model require three-phase electrical supply?
A: No. The R97 operates on single-phase 230 V power with standard 13 A plug connection. Total draw is 2000 W at full heat. This configuration suits food trucks and smaller cafés without three-phase infrastructure.
Q: How does grease drainage work during high-volume service?
A: Front and rear grease channels run the full 60 cm width. Cooking surface slopes 2° toward channels. Fat and oil drain into removable stainless steel collection trays at each end for disposal during service.
Q: Can this griddle install in a food truck or mobile catering unit?
A: Yes. The 11 kg weight and 60 × 30 cm footprint suit counter-mounted installation in food trucks. Single-phase 230 V requirement matches most mobile generator output. Secure mounting prevents movement during transport.
Q: How do operators control temperature zones for different products?
A: The thermostat dial adjusts element output from 50°C to 300°C. Operators create zones by setting mid-range temperature then using product placement—items needing high heat go directly above the element path, lower-temp items sit at plate edges.
