Overview

Waldorf CHL8120G-B 800 Series 1200mm Gas Chargrill Low Back Version – Bench Model

The Waldorf CHL8120G-B is a 1200mm bench-mount gas chargrill from the trusted 800 Series, engineered for high-volume commercial kitchens that demand consistent, authentic char results across meats, seafood and vegetables. Constructed from 304 stainless steel throughout, it houses four individual 33 MJ/hr U-burners delivering a combined output of 133 MJ/hr (36.9 kW), with variable high-low temperature control on each burner for precise heat management across the full cooking surface.

Designed with operator practicality at its core, the CHL8120G-B features reversible heavy-duty cast iron top grates positioned at an incline to minimise flare-ups and direct grease away from the flame. Flame failure protection with a continuous pilot burner adds an essential layer of safety, while the lift-out grates, radiants and baffles make thorough daily cleaning straightforward. Compatible with both natural gas and LPG, the unit is manufactured in New Zealand and backed by a 24-month warranty.

Key Benefits

• Four independently controlled burners allow different heat zones across the 1200mm surface, letting chefs cook multiple proteins or vegetables simultaneously at their ideal temperatures.
• Inclined grate position channels grease away from burners, significantly reducing flare-ups and helping to maintain consistent cooking temperatures during busy service.
• Reversible cast iron grates extend the working life of the cooking surface and provide flexibility for different sear patterns and product types.
• Flame failure protection with a continuous pilot burner automatically cuts gas flow if a flame is extinguished, improving safety in fast-paced kitchen environments.
• Lift-out grates, radiants and baffles allow thorough, tool-free access to internal components, reducing cleaning time and supporting compliance with food safety standards.
• Heavy-duty reinforced control knobs withstand the rigours of continuous commercial use, maintaining reliable operation over an extended service life.
• Dual gas compatibility (natural gas and LPG) via a standard R 3/4 BSP male connection provides installation flexibility across a wide range of venues.
• 304 stainless steel construction resists corrosion and heat stress, meeting the hygiene and durability demands of professional commercial kitchens.
