Electric chafing dish HENDI 470411

An electric chafing dish keeps prepared food at serving temperature without further cooking. A heating element submerged in a water-filled stainless-steel tank transfers heat evenly to the inner food pan. The water bath prevents hot spots and dries the food out less than direct heat, while the insulated lid retains warmth and reduces energy use.

To use the HENDI UNIQ, fill the water tank to the stamped 4 L line. Place the GN1/1 stainless-steel food pan inside, load it with pre-cooked dishes, and close the two-piece tempered-glass lid. Set the desired holding temperature between 35 °C and 85 °C on the digital panel; the display shows the target and current readings. When the temperature is reached, the unit maintains it automatically. The last setting is stored in memory and recalled on restart. A card holder on the lid keeps menu cards visible.

The body is high-temperature-resistant polypropylene. The detachable GN1/1 tank and heating element are stainless steel AISI 304 for durability and hygiene. The lid has an insulated handle, a cut-out for serving utensils, and aluminium hinges. A 1500 mm power lead connects to a 240 V supply.

The 0.7 kW power rating indicates a modest electrical load suitable for standard kitchen circuits. The 35–85 °C range covers warm-holding for sauces, soups, stews and plated meals without risk of over-heating or cooling below safe temperatures. The 4 L volume holds a single GN1/1 gastronorm pan. The 607 × 402 × 245 mm footprint fits on most worktops or service counters.

After service, remove the food pan and empty the water tank. Wash the stainless-steel tank and lid in warm soapy water; the polypropylene body can be wiped with a damp cloth. The digital panel should not be submerged.

The HENDI UNIQ is a single 4 L model with 240 V supply and digital control.
