Overview

Blue Seal E516D-B Evolution Series 900mm Electric Cooktop - Bench Model

The Blue Seal E516D-B is a 900mm wide commercial electric cooktop from the Evolution Series, designed to deliver reliable, high-output performance in demanding professional kitchens. Powered by six individual 2.4 kW radiant elements totalling 14.4 kW, it provides consistent, even heat across the full cooking surface and accepts optional 2 kW solid plate elements for kitchens requiring a different cooking style.

Built as a bench model, the E516D-B offers flexible placement on existing workstations or custom bases, making it a practical choice for kitchens where space and layout need to adapt to service demands. Heavy-duty stainless steel construction, reinforced control knobs with clear non-fade markings, and adjustable feet with two additional rollers combine to make this unit straightforward to position, operate, clean, and service day after day.

Key Benefits

• Six independent 2.4 kW radiant elements allow different heat zones to be set simultaneously, supporting a wide range of cooking tasks during a single service.
• Energy regulator controls on each element enable precise adjustment from a high rolling boil down to a gentle simmer, reducing the risk of scorching delicate preparations.
• Heavy-duty reinforced control knobs with strengthened shaft sleeves and non-fade markings withstand constant daily use, minimising the need for replacement parts.
• Bench model format provides installation flexibility, allowing the unit to sit on an existing worktop, custom stand, or refrigeration base to suit the kitchen layout.
• Adjustable feet and two included rollers make levelling and repositioning straightforward, saving time during kitchen reconfigurations or deep cleans.
• Optional solid hotplate elements can replace radiant elements where uniform surface contact and heat retention are preferred for specific menu items.
• Stainless steel construction throughout supports fast, hygienic cleaning between services, keeping the unit compliant with commercial kitchen standards.
• Compact 900 mm footprint delivers a 900 x 480 mm cooking surface, maximising usable cooking area relative to bench space occupied.
