Hatco GR5AHL-24 Glo-Ray Curved Infrared Strip Heater with LED Lights, 24" W, 506 W, High Watt, Remote Control Box Included
Description
A slim curved strip heater with built-in LED lights that warms and lights food on a buffet or serving line, with the infinite control box in the box.
The Hatco GR5AHL-24 is a 24" high-watt Glo-Ray curved infrared strip heater with dual LED light channels, only 2" high and 6" deep. It is rated 506 watts and runs on 120, 208 or 240V single phase, chosen at order. The included RMB5-1R remote box has an electronic infinite heat control from 0 to 100% and a power on/off switch for lights and heat, so you can run lights only, heat only or both. Warm white LEDs are standard, and the clear anodized housing can be ordered in Designer colors or Gloss finishes.
Will it fit · Will it hook up

- Power
- Single phase, 506 W: 120V 4.3 A, 208V 2.5 A or 240V 2.1 A; voltage is set at order. 5 ft. power leads in 3 ft. of conduit

- RMB5-1R included: 11" W x 5-1/2" H, cutout 10-1/8" W x 6-1/4" D x 4-3/4" H; place it where the air stays at or below 104°F
- Clearance
- Non-combustible surroundings only: at least 10" from the element to the surface below, 0" to the back wall, 1" below the lowest part of the overshelf
- Mounting height
- Hatco recommends 13" to 16" above the food; heat pattern about 12" wide
The LED leads are 18" longer than the power leads (6-1/2 ft. standard), so plan the run from the heater to the control box location.
Slim curved housing
The patented curved aluminum housing is 2" high and 6" deep, so it fits tight spaces under shelves and sneeze guards.
Even infrared heat
A tubular metal-sheathed element and pre-focused heat pattern hold food at serving temperature longer without cooking it further.
Dual LED lights
Energy-efficient LED channels run the full length and are field replaceable. Warm white is standard; cool white or dual warm/cool white are options.
Infinite control included
The RMB5-1R box has an electronic infinite control from 0 to 100%, an on/off switch and indicator light. Use lights only, heat only or both.
Colors to match the room
Clear anodized is standard. Seven Designer colors and five Gloss finishes are options, with end panels and brackets in the unit color.
Delivery and setup
- Inspect the carton for damage before you sign, and note any damage on the delivery receipt.
- Hatco requires a qualified electrician to install it to local electrical codes. Units are voltage specific, so check the label first.
- Fasten the angle brackets to the underside of the shelf with fasteners suited to the shelf; Hatco does not supply them.
- Keep the minimum clearances and do not hide it behind a decorative soffit; trapped heat can cause the unit to fail.
- Install it where the room stays at 70°F or warmer, away from exhaust hoods, air ducts and exterior doors.
- Clean it only when it is off and cool, with non-abrasive cleaners and cloths. Do not submerge it or soak it with water.
Questions buyers ask
Are controls included?
Yes. The RMB5-1R remote box comes with it: electronic infinite heat control from 0 to 100%, a power on/off switch for lights and heat, an indicator light and the LED driver. An RMB5-2R box can run two units at the same settings.
What power does it need?
Single phase, wired in by an electrician: 4.3 A at 120V, 2.5 A at 208V or 2.1 A at 240V, 506 W total. Voltage is chosen when you order.
What LED color does it have?
Warm white (2700-3200K) is standard. Cool white (4000-4300K) or dual warm/cool white that toggles between the two can be ordered. Hatco suggests warm white over heated wells and shelves.
How high should I mount it?
It is a high-watt unit, so install it in non-combustible surroundings only, at least 10" above the surface. Hatco recommends 13" to 16" above the food.
Can I add a sneeze guard?
Yes. Hatco sells curved tempered glass sneeze guards for the 24" size, 24" deep x 4-1/8" high: SG5-24-BA with black anodized hardware or SG5-24-CA with clear anodized hardware.
What is the warranty?
Hatco covers the metal-sheathed heating element for 1 year parts and labor plus 1 more year parts only. Other parts carry Hatco's 18-month limited warranty from shipment or registration, whichever is later; bulbs and glass are not covered.
