Hatco FR2-9B Hydro-Heater Food Rethermalizer / Bain-Marie Heater, 9 kW, 208V Balanced 3-Phase
A digital-control water heater that mounts under a bain-marie or rethermalizer and holds the bath at 140°F to 190°F.
The Hatco FR2-9B is a 9.0 kW FR2 Hydro-Heater for food rethermalizers and bain-maries. It supplies temperature-controlled water to a vessel mounted above it. The heating element is wrapped around the outside of a tubular water chamber, so it never touches the water, and an electronic controller with a digital display holds the set point. This model is built for 208V, balanced three phase.
Water over 3.0 grains of hardness per gallon must be treated and softened before it reaches the heater.
An electronic controller with a digital display holds the water at the set point, adjustable from 140°F to 190°F.
A spiral heating element wraps the outside of the flow tube, so it never touches the water.
Hatco free-flow technology moves water through the tubular chamber for a responsive, efficient heat-up.
A low-water cut-off system and an electronic temperature monitor come standard.
A drain outlet and clean-out caps give access to the tubes. A flush kit is sold as an accessory.
No. The FR2 is the heating unit only. It attaches to the bottom of a vessel or sink you supply and feeds it hot water. The perforated baffle is supplied by the installer.
Hatco builds the FR2-9B for 208V, balanced three phase. At 208V it draws 25 A on a 40 A breaker. Tell us your voltage when you order.
Hatco calls for one FR2 per bain-marie up to 6 ft. long and at least two above 6 ft. Size it at a minimum of 750 W per sq. ft. of vessel top for a bain-marie, or 2,000 W per sq. ft. for a rethermalizer.
At the time of purchase you can add an all stainless steel body and base, an Auto-Fill solenoid, a remote mounted control or a security package with Torx screws and a control cover.
The FR2 is UL Classified to NSF 4 for construction only. The vessel maker must have the complete rethermalizer tested and listed to NSF Standard 4.
Hatco gives the FR2 a 1-year parts and labor warranty. Failures caused by lime or sediment buildup are not covered.
