Heated module ROCAM 01900OM5PCSC

A buffet unit that keeps food at serving temperature on a heated countertop while circulating warm air in the lower compartment. The countertop uses a concealed heating element beneath tempered glass to maintain an even heat across the surface, preventing cold spots and ensuring dishes stay at the desired temperature without drying out. Below, a fan-assisted heating system distributes warmth evenly around the lower compartment, allowing for consistent holding of pre-prepared items or backup servings without the risk of uneven cooling or overheating in specific areas.

To operate, the user sets the digital thermostat to the required temperature, which can range from chilled storage up to hot holding. The heated countertop is loaded with serving dishes, while the lower compartment accommodates trays or containers. Grooves on the worktop mark the heated zones, guiding placement. The unit runs continuously, maintaining the set temperature until switched off or adjusted. When service ends, the countertop and lower compartment are emptied, and the unit is turned off for cleaning.

The structure is built from stainless steel, with customisable finishing options including laminated wood, powder coating, or over-panelling. The countertop is made of tempered glass, providing a durable and easy-to-clean surface. Adjustable feet allow for levelling on uneven floors, and a skirting board can be added to conceal them. The lower compartment is accessed via doors, which can be specified in laminated wood, stainless steel, or powder-coated finishes.

Controls consist of a digital thermostat for setting and monitoring the temperature in both the countertop and lower compartment. The temperature range allows for chilled storage, ambient holding, or hot service, depending on the requirements of the menu.

The 230 V voltage requirement means the unit connects to a standard single-phase power supply, suitable for most professional kitchens. The 3.329 kW power rating indicates the load it places on the circuit, which may increase if optional LED or halogen lighting is added. The 85 kg weight ensures stability during use but requires two people or a trolley for safe movement. The external dimensions of 1821 x 747 x 910 mm provide a compact footprint for a buffet of this capacity, while the 5 GN1/1 capacity allows for efficient organisation of serving dishes or containers.

Cleaning involves wiping down the tempered glass countertop and stainless steel surfaces with a damp cloth and mild detergent. The lower compartment and tray slides should be removed or folded away for thorough cleaning, ensuring no food debris accumulates in the heated zones. The adjustable feet and skirting board should be checked periodically to maintain stability and hygiene.

The unit is available with a range of optional features, including different types of sneeze-guards, tray holders, lighting systems (LED, halogen, or combined), and finishes for the structure and doors. Customisation extends to colour choices for laminated wood or powder-coated finishes, allowing the buffet to match the aesthetic of the kitchen or dining area. Optional castors can be added for mobility, with choices between 125 mm steel castors or 75 mm polyamide castors, both with braking mechanisms.

The buffet is categorised as a modular serving unit for professional catering, designed to integrate into buffet lines, self-service setups, or assisted service stations.
