Hatco GRAM-42D Glo-Ray Max Watt Dual Infrared Strip Heater, 42" W, 3" Spacer, 2,350 W, 120V, 208V or 240V
Description
Two Max Watt elements side by side in one 42" unit keep a deep pass-through or holding area hot without drying out the food.
The Hatco GRAM-42D is a Glo-Ray Max Watt dual infrared strip heater in a 42" extruded aluminum housing. Two metal-sheathed tubular elements sit side by side with a 3" spacer between them, making the unit 15" deep to cover a deeper holding area. It is rated 2,350 W. Hatco rates Max Watt units at 25% more output than Glo-Ray high watt. Voltage is chosen when you order: 120V, 208V or 240V, single phase.

Max Watt output
2,350 W from a pre-focused heat pattern that holds serving temperature without continuing to cook the food.
Deeper holding area
Two elements side by side with a 3" spacer make the unit 15" deep. Hatco recommends a dual unit for a 20" to 24" deep pass-through.
Sag-free aluminum housing
The 42" extruded aluminum housing does not sag, and heavy-duty insulation cuts heat loss. Clear anodized is standard.
Remote toggle control
A remote control enclosure with toggle switch and indicator light comes standard. An electronic infinite control box is a factory option.
Delivery and setup
- Inspect the carton for damage before you sign, and note any damage on the delivery receipt. Approximate shipping weight is 27 lb. plus 2 to 8 lb. for the remote control box.
- Have a qualified, licensed electrician hardwire the unit; it comes with 3 ft. of flexible conduit and leads on the server's right.
- Mount the remote control box outside the heat zone, and never install the heater in combustible surroundings.
- Adjustable angle brackets ship loose for mounting. Clean daily with a damp, non-abrasive cloth once the unit has cooled.
