Mobile plate dispenser FAGOR 19043374

A heated lid keeps plates warm and ready for service in a professional plate dispenser. The unit sits over the stack of plates, trapping heat inside the insulated chamber. A low-wattage element beneath the lid surface gently radiates warmth, preventing plates from cooling while they wait to be served. This method avoids direct contact with heating elements, reducing the risk of overheating or uneven warming, and ensures plates remain at a consistent temperature without drying or cracking.

The operator places the lid directly onto the top of the plate dispenser, aligning it with the rim of the stack. No additional setup is required; the lid begins warming as soon as it is positioned. The flat, low-profile design allows the dispenser to remain fully functional, with plates still accessible for removal. The lid remains in place during service, maintaining temperature until the last plate is taken.

Constructed from durable plastic, the lid is lightweight and easy to handle. Its smooth surface resists scratches and is simple to clean with a damp cloth and mild detergent. The 400 mm diameter matches standard plate dispenser sizes, covering the full area of the stack without overhang.

The ITDP-28 model is designed specifically for use with FAGOR plate dispensers, ensuring a secure fit and optimal heat retention. Its compact dimensions—400 mm square and 60 mm high—allow it to integrate seamlessly with existing equipment without occupying additional workspace. Weighing just 1.0 kg, the lid can be lifted and repositioned effortlessly during service.

Regular cleaning prevents grease or food residue from accumulating on the surface. The plastic material does not require seasoning or special maintenance, though it should be inspected periodically for cracks or warping to ensure continued performance.

This heated lid is categorised under warming and holding equipment in professional catering catalogues, providing a practical solution for maintaining plate temperature in busy kitchens and service areas.
