Equipex CS2E Hot Dog Steamer with 2 Bun Toasting Spikes, 40 Hot Dog Capacity, Pyrex Glass Chamber, 120V
Description
Steams up to 40 hot dogs in a Pyrex glass chamber and toasts torpedo rolls from the inside on 2 heated spikes.
The Equipex CS2E is a European-style hot dog machine built by Roller Grill (Sodir). A Pyrex glass chamber with a lid sits over a stainless steel water container and holds up to 40 hot dogs in a two-compartment wire basket. 2 solid spikes mounted through the stainless steel base heat the inside of a torpedo roll, so the sausage and condiments go into a warm pocket. It plugs into a standard 120V outlet and fits concession stands, convenience stores, snack bars and stadiums.

Pyrex glass chamber
Heat-resistant Pyrex glass container with a cover holds up to 40 hot dogs, so customers see the product while it steams.
Two-compartment basket
The dual-chamber wire basket keeps cooked product apart from product that is still heating.
Thermostat to 300°F
A sheathed element in the base is thermostatically controlled up to 300°F, with an integrated on/off and a red lamp that shows when it is heating.
Heated bun spikes
2 solid spikes conduct heat from the base. Slide a torpedo roll down a spike to toast the inside and open a pocket for the sausage; the manual gives 1 to 3 minutes per roll.
Stainless steel base
Foodservice-grade stainless steel construction with a pilot indicator light.
Dishwasher-safe parts
The glass container, lid and stainless steel water container can be washed in a sink or dishwasher. Wipe the base with a damp cloth.
Delivery and setup
- Inspect the box for damage before you sign, and note any damage on the delivery receipt. Equipex asks you to keep the original packaging for a carrier inspection.
- It arrives by common carrier in a 21" x 20" x 17" box, 25 lb. One person can set it on the counter.
- Plug it into a properly grounded 120V outlet on a dedicated circuit. Do not let the cord hang over the counter edge or touch hot surfaces.
- Fill the water container to just under where the glass rests, never so high that water touches the glass, and never run it dry.
- Preheat on setting 9 for 20 to 30 minutes, then hold at 7 to 8. Do not leave the dial on the constant "C" setting for more than 15 minutes.
Questions buyers ask
How many hot dogs does it hold?
The Pyrex glass steamer holds up to 40 hot dogs. Equipex bases that on hot dogs about 1" in diameter.
What outlet does it need?
120V, single phase, 6 amps, 0.65 kW, with a NEMA 5-15P plug. Equipex says to use a dedicated circuit of the proper rating.
How long does it take to heat up?
Allow 20 to 30 minutes on setting 9. The steamer is ready when the glass chamber holds steam; spike models take longer because the heat has to reach the top of the solid spikes.
What rolls work on the spikes?
Torpedo rolls or baguette-style bread. Slide the roll down almost to its end without piercing the far end or side. The manual gives one to three minutes of toasting.
Does it need a water line?
No. You fill the stainless steel water container by hand with clean tap water and keep it filled while the unit runs.
What certifications does it have?
The Equipex sheet shows cULus Listed and UL Sanitation (NSF-4) marks for the CS0E, CS2E and CS4E.
What warranty does it have?
Equipex gives a limited one-year parts and labor warranty from the date of purchase, with repairs by an authorized service agency, for use in the USA and Canada.
