Wells G-196 Electric Drop-In Griddle, 34.25" x 18.3" Cooking Surface, 2 Thermostats, 12.0 kW
A built-in electric griddle that drops into a metal counter and turns out about 720 hamburgers an hour from a 34.25" wide plate.
The Wells G-196 is a G-Series electric built-in (drop-in) griddle with a 34.25" x 18.3" cooking surface, 625 square inches. 2 positive-off thermostats give individual zone control from 200°F to 450°F, and enclosed tubular elements clamped under the plate spread heat over the whole surface. It reaches 400°F in about 9 minutes. Wellsloks hold it in a metal counter, and a terminal block takes the field wiring.
Have a licensed electrician size the circuit from the amps for your voltage and phase before the griddle arrives.
2 positive-off thermostats control separate zones from 200°F to 450°F.
Enclosed tubular elements are clamped to the bottom of the plate. It reaches 400°F in 9 minutes and uses 1,700 watts per hour to hold 400°F.
An extra-large 4 quart grease drawer pulls out from the front.
Protective guard rings keep knobs from being bumped to a new temperature.
Stainless steel top and control panel with removable splash guards for easy cleanup.
Wellsloks make installation into a metal counter quick, and a terminal block is provided for field wiring.
