Description

A 7-quart round drop-in warmer with a simple dial control for holding soups, chili and sauces at the serving line.

Wells SS-8D round drop-in food warmer with separate dial control box on wire leads, front view

The Wells SS8D is a heavy-duty, top-mount round food warmer that takes a standard 7-quart round inset (sold separately). It has a one-piece stainless steel top flange and a heavy-gauge, deep-drawn stainless steel warming pan heated by a tubular element underneath. Wells designs it for wet or dry operation. It runs on 208/240V single phase, hard-wired, and has a 1/2" NPT drain.

Check the counter material first: this recognized-component model must go into an all-metal counter, and models without conduit need the metal shield.

Infinite dial control

An infinite switch with a guard ring sets the heat and helps prevent accidental changes. A high limit prevents overheating.

Deep-drawn well

A one-piece stainless steel top flange and heavy-gauge, deep-drawn stainless steel pan hold a standard 7-quart round inset.

Wellslok mounting

Wellsloks clamp the flange to the countertop from below; you turn them with a screwdriver during installation.

Built-in drain

A 1/2" NPT drain lets you empty the water without lifting the unit. A drain valve extension kit is optional.

Delivery and setup

  • Inspect the carton for damage before you sign, and note any damage on the delivery receipt.
  • Wells requires this recognized-component warmer to be installed in an all-metal counter with suitable wiring and control enclosures to national and local electrical codes. Models without conduit need the metal shield shown on the Wells drawing.
  • An electrician should hard-wire the 208/240V single-phase supply to local code.
  • Run the 1/2" NPT drain to an approved drain per local plumbing code.
