Hatco GRA-144D Glo-Ray Dual Aluminum Infrared Strip Heater, 6" Spacer, 144" W x 18" D, 5100 W
Description
A 144-inch dual Glo-Ray heat strip with a 6-inch spacer that covers a 18-inch-deep holding area.
The Hatco Glo-Ray GRA-144D puts two 144-inch standard watt heater sections side by side with a 6-inch spacer between them, for a deeper holding area: the unit is 144" wide and 18" deep. Pre-focused heat from metal-sheathed elements covers the whole holding surface, and the extruded aluminum housing does not sag. It is rated 5100 watts at 208 or 240 volts, single phase, chosen at order. At 144" it uses tandem (end-to-end) elements and is offered with a remote box or remote switches only.

Deeper heated area
Two 6" heater sections with a 6" center spacer make a 18" deep unit that covers wider pans and plates.
Even pre-focused heat
Pre-focused heat from metal-sheathed elements covers the whole holding surface with no cold spots; the reflector does not blacken.
Rigid aluminum housing
Extruded aluminum housings do not sag, and heavy-duty insulation cuts heat loss. Reinforced wire guards protect the elements.
Remote controls
At 144" the unit uses tandem end-to-end elements that may be individually controlled, run from a remote box (RMB) or remote switches.
Finish options
Clear anodized is standard. Designer colors and Gloss finishes in anti-microbial paint and sneeze guards can be ordered with the unit.
Delivery and setup
- Inspect the carton for damage before you sign, and note any damage on the delivery receipt.
- Approximate shipping weight is 80 lb, packed.
- Have a licensed electrician hardwire it; the dual unit has conduit and leads, not a plug. Mount any remote box outside the heat zone.
- The remote control box (RMB) is not included; order it with the heater. Colors, sneeze guards, longer leads and stands must be ordered with the unit.
- To clean, turn the unit off and let it cool, wipe the metal with a damp non-abrasive cloth and dry it. Do not steam clean, spray or soak the unit.
