Blue Seal E514C-B Evolution Series 600mm Electric Cooktop - Bench Model

The Blue Seal E514C-B is a 600mm bench-model electric cooktop from the Evolution Series, combining two 2.4kW radiant elements with a 300mm smooth mild steel griddle plate on the right-hand side as standard. Manufactured in New Zealand from heavy-duty 304 stainless steel, it is engineered to withstand the demands of high-volume commercial kitchens while remaining straightforward to clean, install, and service.

Radiant elements are governed by energy regulator controls for precise low-to-high heat adjustment, while the 300mm griddle section features a dedicated thermostat spanning 50 to 320°C. The bench configuration sits on four stainless steel legs with adjustable feet, and the unit ships with two additional rollers for easy repositioning on the kitchen floor. Optional 2kW solid hotplate elements are available as an upgrade to suit varying menu requirements.

Key Benefits

• Dual radiant elements deliver consistent, responsive heat across a wide temperature spectrum, from a gentle simmer right through to high-output cooking.
• The integrated 300mm smooth mild steel griddle with its own 50-320°C thermostat gives chefs a dedicated flat-top surface without needing a separate piece of equipment.
• Energy regulator controls on the radiant elements allow fine, repeatable heat adjustments, reducing the risk of overcooked product during busy service periods.
• Heavy-duty reinforced control knobs with non-fade markings and strengthened shaft sleeves withstand constant daily use and resist the need for frequent replacement.
• Adjustable stainless steel feet and two included rollers make levelling on uneven floors quick and repositioning the unit straightforward during kitchen changeovers.
• Indicator lights for power and heating status on each griddle control give kitchen staff an at-a-glance confirmation of operating conditions, improving safety and workflow.
• The 165mm splashback protects the wall behind the unit, while the stainless steel construction and accessible design keep cleaning and routine servicing fast and uncomplicated.
• Optional 2kW solid hotplate elements allow the cooktop to be reconfigured as cooking requirements evolve, protecting the equipment investment over time.
