Wells SS-276TDU 12" x 27" Top-Mount Rectangular Drop-In Food Warmer, Thermostatic, Drain, 208/240V
Description
A single-well 12 x 27 inch drop-in warmer that holds four 1/3-size pans of hot food at safe serving temperatures.
The Wells SS276TDU is a heavy-duty top-mount rectangular food warmer. It holds four 1/3-size pans or equivalent fractional pans. A one-piece stainless steel top flange and a heavy-gauge, deep-drawn stainless steel pan are heated by a tubular element underneath. A thermostatic control with a temperature-ready light sets the holding temperature. A high limit prevents overheating. It is hard-wired to 208/240V single phase and has a 1/2" NPT drain.

Extra-deep 12 x 27 well
Holds four 1/3-size pans or equivalent fractional pans. Wells recommends wet operation for best results, but it can run wet or dry.
Thermostatic control
The thermostat is recessed in a one-piece, drawn, front-mounted panel with a temperature-ready light. A high limit prevents overheating.
Deep-drawn stainless pan
A one-piece stainless steel top flange and heavy-gauge, deep-drawn stainless steel warming pan form the well.
Tubular heating element
A powerful tubular element under the pan heats quickly and spreads heat evenly.
Wellslok mounting
Wellsloks clamp the flange to the countertop from below. A Wellslok extension kit (22593) is available for wood counters up to 1" thick.
Adapter top available
An optional adapter top (22589) converts the SS276 well to hold three 7-quart insets.
Delivery and setup
- Inspect the carton for damage before you sign, and note any damage on the delivery receipt.
- An electrician should hard-wire the 208/240V single-phase supply to local code. UL models come with 1/2" conduit.
- Keep the unit accessible from below for service, and keep the minimum clearances: 2" back, 2" sides, 6-3/4" below, 4-1/8" front.
- Run the 1/2" NPT drain to an approved drain per local plumbing code. A drain valve extension kit (20385) brings the drain handle to the counter front.
