Overview

Blue Seal E516S-LS Evolution Series 900mm Electric Cooktop Sealed Hobs on Leg Stand

The Blue Seal E516S-LS is a 900mm wide commercial electric cooktop from the Evolution Series, featuring six sealed cast iron hot plate elements mounted on a heavy-duty leg stand. Each element delivers 2.6kW with thermal protection and a six-position heat switch, giving kitchen staff precise, responsive control across all cooking zones simultaneously. Manufactured in New Zealand from 304 stainless steel with aluminised steel internal construction, this unit is engineered for the demands of high-volume professional kitchens.

The leg stand configuration provides an open base that simplifies floor cleaning, improves ventilation, and offers flexibility within suite arrangements. The sealed hob design keeps spills away from internal components, while a vitreous enamelled control panel, large heat-resistant reinforced knobs, and individual power indicator lights per element make day-to-day operation and maintenance straightforward. The unit integrates seamlessly into the Blue Seal Evolution modular cooking lineup, supported by a matching undershelf and 165mm splashback as standard.
