Built-in kitchen appliance Drop-in TECNOINOX 136023

A drop-in electric fry top integrates directly into a stainless-steel worktop, creating a seamless cooking surface without legs or a stand. The heating elements lie beneath a flat, solid plate, transferring heat evenly across the entire cooking area. This design eliminates cold spots, allowing consistent searing, grilling and shallow frying across the whole plate. Because the heat is radiant and conducted through metal, the surface responds quickly to temperature adjustments, giving precise control over delicate items like fish or eggs as well as robust items like steaks or burgers. The operator lowers the unit into a prepared cut-out in the worktop, secures it with the supplied clamps, and connects the electrical supply. Once powered, the thermostat is set to the desired temperature; the plate heats until the thermostat cycles the elements on and off to maintain the setting. Food is placed directly on the plate, turned or moved as needed, and removed when cooked. The flat surface also allows pots and pans to be used for sauces or simmering, extending the range of dishes that can be prepared. Construction is stainless steel throughout, chosen for durability, corrosion resistance and ease of cleaning. The 700 mm width provides a generous cooking area while fitting standard worktop depths. The 6.0-7.8 kW power rating reflects the electrical load the unit draws, requiring a dedicated circuit capable of handling the current without tripping breakers or overheating wiring. The voltage options of 230 V single-phase or 400 V three-phase allow the fry top to be installed in kitchens with either supply, making it adaptable to different premises without additional transformers. The 46.7 kg weight indicates the unit is heavy enough to remain stable during vigorous cooking but light enough to be lifted into position with two people or a small hoist. Cleaning involves scraping the plate while still warm, wiping with a damp cloth and applying a thin film of oil to protect the surface between services. The heavy-duty stainless-steel splashback lifts off without tools so the heating elements and drip tray can be cleaned in place after each service. The DFTRR70E2 is part of the TECNOINOX drop-in range, designed for modular kitchen counters.
