Hatco GR-36 Glo-Ray Stainless Steel Infrared Strip Heater, 36" W, 575 W, 120/208/240V
Description
A 36-inch stainless steel overhead infrared warmer that keeps plated food hot at the pass until it goes out.
The Hatco GR-36 Glo-Ray Infrared Stainless Steel Strip Heater is the 36" standard watt model. A pre-focused heat pattern directs heat from a tubular metal-sheathed element across the whole holding surface, without continuing to cook the food. It is rated 575 W and is built for 120, 208 or 240V single phase; the voltage is set when the unit is ordered. An on/off toggle switch on the chef's left side is standard, and it ships with four mounting tabs, ready to install.

Pre-focused heat
The reflector and pre-focused pattern spread heat from the tubular element across the whole holding surface, with no cold spots.
Stainless steel housing
A 36" stainless steel housing with heavy-duty insulation that keeps heat aimed down at the food.
Reflector stays bright
The reflector does not blacken, so the heat pattern stays consistent over time.
Wire guard
A reinforced wire guard protects the operator without affecting heat distribution.
Toggle switch included
An on/off toggle switch, rated 15 A max., sits on the chef's left side. Remote switches and a built-in infinite control are factory options.
Delivery and setup
- Inspect the carton for damage before you sign, and note any damage on the delivery receipt. Approximate shipping weight is 10 lb.
- The unit comes factory assembled with mounting tabs. It is voltage specific, so check the specification label before installation.
- Standard units are hardwired through the 3 ft. conduit. Have a qualified electrician make a grounded connection of the correct voltage.
- Mount it at least 10" above combustible surfaces and 3" from a combustible wall. Keep any remote control box outside the heat zone.
- Clean daily once cool: wipe with a damp, non-abrasive cloth and dry. Do not submerge, steam clean or spray it with water.
