Heated module ROCAM 01900OM3PC/IN

A heated buffet counter keeps food at serving temperature while presenting it to customers. The stainless steel top is warmed by electric elements beneath the surface, spreading heat evenly across the worktop. This method prevents hot spots and keeps food at a consistent temperature without drying it out. The heat is controlled by a digital thermostat, allowing the operator to set the exact warmth needed for different dishes.

To use the counter, the operator first sets the desired temperature on the digital thermostat. Once the top reaches the set point, the food is placed in gastronorm trays and loaded into the three GN1/1 wells. The counter maintains the temperature until the food is served. The 30 mm raised edge around the worktop prevents spills, and the rounded corners make cleaning easier. A drain cock allows any collected liquid to be removed without lifting the unit.

The counter is built on a stainless steel frame, with panels available in laminated wood, stainless steel or powder-coated finishes. Adjustable feet allow the unit to be levelled on uneven floors, and a skirting board can be added to conceal the feet. The lower compartment, fitted with doors, can be configured for chilled or heated storage, depending on the chosen option. The entire unit stands on reinforced 125 mm castors, two of which have brakes for stability.

The controls consist of a digital thermostat that sets the temperature of the heated top. The temperature range of 0 to 90 °C allows the counter to hold chilled items as well as hot dishes. The 230 V voltage requirement means the unit plugs into a standard single-phase circuit, the type commonly found in professional kitchens. The 65 kg weight indicates the counter is designed to be moved by two people or with a trolley, but is stable once in place. The external dimensions of 1171 x 747 x 910 mm give a footprint that fits most serving areas, while the 1017 x 593 mm worktop provides ample space for three GN1/1 trays.

Cleaning involves wiping down the stainless steel top with a damp cloth and mild detergent, paying attention to the rounded corners and drain cock. The lower compartment doors can be removed for thorough cleaning, and the castors should be checked periodically for debris. The unit can be customised with a variety of options, including LED or halogen lighting, tempered glass sneeze-guards in different configurations, foldable dish holders in wood or stainless steel, and removable tray slides for self-service or assisted service. The finishing can be chosen from a range of colours, including birch, white sand, grey fog and wenge, or left in stainless steel or powder-coated metal.

The ROCAM OMNIA 3PC-IN is part of the professional buffet and serving equipment range, designed for restaurants, hotels and catering operations that require heated display and storage.
