Hatco GRAHL-54D6 Glo-Ray 54" High Watt Dual Aluminum Infrared Strip Heater with Lights, 6" Spacer, 2,740 W
Description
Two 54" infrared warmers side by side with display lights, for an 18" deep pass-through or holding area that needs even top heat.
The Hatco GRAHL-54D6 is a Glo-Ray high watt dual aluminum infrared strip heater with lights: two 54" warmers mounted side by side with a 6" spacer between them, 18" deep and 2-1/2" high. Pre-focused heat from metal-sheathed elements covers the whole holding surface, and 4 coated shatter-resistant incandescent lights show off the food. It is rated 2,740 W. It is built for 120, 120/208 or 120/240V single phase, chosen when you order. A toggle switch on the chef's left side is standard, and power comes in through 3 ft. of conduit with leads at the server's right.

On 120/208V and 120/240V units the lights run on a 120V circuit and the heat on 208V or 240V, so plan the wiring before install.
Even, pre-focused heat
The pre-focused heat pattern spreads heat evenly with no cold spots, so food holds at serving temperature longer.
Built-in display lights
4 coated, shatter-resistant incandescent bulbs light the holding area and protect food if a bulb breaks. Halogen and Chef LED bulbs are options.
Deeper holding area
Two warmers joined by a 6" spacer cover an 18" deep holding area from one 54" long unit.
High watt output
2,740 W of infrared heat lets you mount it higher, at 14" to 18" above the food.
Guarded element
A reinforced wire guard protects staff without changing the heat pattern of the metal-sheathed element.
Delivery and setup
- Inspect the crate for damage before you sign, and note any damage on the delivery receipt. Approximate shipping weight is 30 lb.
- It arrives with most components pre-assembled, including the 6" spacer. Stands, chains or angle brackets are separate options or accessories.
- Have a qualified, licensed electrician hardwire it through the 3 ft. conduit and leads.
- If the heat element needs a breaker larger than 20 A, the incandescent lights need their own breaker of 20 A or less.
- Install any remote control box outside the heat zone, or it can be damaged.
Questions buyers ask
What power does it need?
Choose 120, 120/208 or 120/240V single phase when you order. It draws 22.8 A at 120V, 14.0 A at 120/208V and 12.4 A at 120/240V. On 120/208V and 120/240V units the lights run on 120V and the heat on 208V or 240V.
How is it switched?
A toggle switch (max. 15 A) on the chef's left side is standard. Remote toggle switches, remote infinite switches or no control (with a Hatco RMB2 box) can be ordered instead. Hatco notes that 120V units of this size may need additional switches, remote only.
What does the D3 or D6 in the code mean?
It is the spacer between the two warmers. Hatco builds the GRAHL-54D with a 3" spacer (standard, 15" deep) or a 6" spacer (18" deep). This listing has the 6" spacer, 18" deep.
How high should I mount it?
Hatco recommends 14" to 18" above the food for high watt dual units. Do not install it in combustible surroundings. With built-in switches keep 10" to the surface below, use a pass-through location (no back wall) and leave 1" below an overshelf.
Can I get it in a color?
Yes, at the time of purchase only. Clear anodized aluminum is standard; the housing can be ordered in Designer colors Warm Red, Black, Gray Granite, White Granite, Navy Blue, Hunter Green, Antique Copper and Radiant Red, or gloss Glossy Gray, Bold Black, Gleaming Gold and Brilliant Blue. Non-standard colors are non-returnable.
What warranty does it have?
Hatco's limited warranty runs 18 months from shipment or registration, whichever is later. Metal-sheathed food warmer elements have 1 year parts and labor plus 1 more year parts only. Coated light bulbs are not covered. Hatco also offers 24/7 parts and service assistance in the US and Canada.
