Overview

Blue Seal E516D-CB Evolution Series 900mm Electric Cooktop – Cabinet Base

The Blue Seal E516D-CB Evolution Series is a 900mm six-element electric cooktop mounted on a cabinet base, purpose-built for the demands of professional commercial kitchens. Each of the six radiant elements delivers 2.4kW of heat, totalling 14.4kW across the cooking surface, with individual energy regulator controls that allow fine-tuned temperature adjustments from a high-heat sear right down to a gentle simmer.

Constructed from heavy-duty 304 stainless steel and fitted with reinforced control knobs featuring non-fade markings and strengthened shaft sleeves, this unit is engineered for long-term durability under daily kitchen punishment. The cabinet base provides valuable enclosed storage, while adjustable feet and two additional rollers make levelling and repositioning straightforward. Optional accessories including GN 1/1 four-position racking kits and solid hotplate elements extend its versatility even further.
