Bain-marie ROCAM 02000COMP2BM

This ROCAM COMPASS 2BM is a bain marie trolley designed for professional use.

Bain marie trolleys maintain the temperature of food by holding gastronorm pans within a heated water bath. Water is heated in a well, typically by elements located beneath it, and the heat is transferred to the food in the pans. This method prevents food from drying out or being damaged by direct heat, keeping it at a serving temperature.

To operate, the well is filled with water, and gastronorm pans containing the food are placed into the well. The heating element, situated below the well, heats the water. The temperature is regulated using an analogue thermostat, allowing settings between 30 °C and 90 °C. A double indicator light signals the operational status. Once heated, the trolley can be moved to its serving location using the push handle. A hook is provided for managing the power cable when not in use.

The trolley is constructed from AISI 304 stainless steel. It features a moulded well with rounded edges for ease of cleaning. The well is designed to accommodate gastronorm pans up to 20 cm deep, with a stated capacity of 2 GN 1/1. The unit has double insulated walls for improved heat retention. A drain cock is fitted for emptying the well.

The control panel, which is ergonomic and faces the operator, is removable for maintenance purposes. It houses the analogue thermostat for temperature adjustment.

The power rating of 1.5 kW indicates the maximum electrical load the appliance will draw. The 230 V voltage specifies the required mains supply. The temperature range of 30 °C to 90 °C allows for holding a variety of hot foods at safe serving temperatures. The dimensions of 901 mm in length, 665 mm in width, and 873 mm in height define its footprint and how it fits within a kitchen or serving area. The weight of 55 kg provides an indication of its sturdiness and how it is moved. The capacity of 2 GN 1/1 H-200 mm specifies the number and size of gastronorm pans it can hold.

Cleaning is facilitated by the stainless steel construction, rounded well edges, and the presence of a drain cock. The trolley is fitted with four non-marking corner bumpers to protect surfaces and the unit itself. It moves on two silent polyamide castors, each equipped with a brake for stability.

This bain marie trolley is listed in catalogues for canteen equipment and for use with hot stationary chafing dishes.
