Blue Seal E580-8 Evolution Series 900mm Electric Tilting Bratt Pan

The Blue Seal E580-8 is a 900mm electric tilting bratt pan from the Evolution Series, purpose-built for high-volume commercial kitchens including restaurants, hotels, schools, hospitals, residential aged care settings, and large-scale catering and institutional operations. The 80-litre stainless steel cooking pan delivers versatile performance across braising, boiling, frying, poaching, steaming, and roasting, making it a single-unit solution for demanding foodservice environments.

Three 4kW stainless steel heating elements combine for a 12kW total output, providing rapid heat-up and precise thermostatic control across a wide 50 to 320°C temperature range. Built throughout from 304 stainless steel and manufactured in New Zealand to commercial-grade standards, the E580-8 is engineered for daily heavy-duty use, straightforward cleaning, and long-term reliability in busy kitchen environments.

Key Benefits

• A 50 to 320°C thermostatic temperature range covers every cooking technique from gentle poaching through to high-heat searing and frying, all within a single piece of equipment.
• The 12mm thick pan base spreads heat uniformly across the full 780mm x 450mm cooking surface, eliminating hot spots so every batch is cooked to a consistent standard.
• The fold-away handle and manually operated tilting mechanism give operators smooth, controlled pouring for safe food transfer and accurate portioning during high-pressure service periods.
• An 80-litre capacity supports large-batch production for institutional, catering, and hospitality environments, cutting the number of cook cycles and reducing labour demands at peak times.
• A thermal overload safety cut-out activates automatically if operating temperatures are exceeded, protecting both equipment and kitchen staff and supporting a safer working environment.
• Rounded pan corners, a large-capacity pouring spout, and a full stainless steel interior make cleaning straightforward and keep downtime between service sessions to a minimum.
• Stainless steel legs fitted with adjustable feet compensate for uneven floor surfaces, keeping the unit stable and correctly levelled for safe operation.
• The freestanding 900mm footprint integrates neatly into existing Evolution Series kitchens or operates as a self-contained high-capacity cooking station.
• New Zealand manufactured with 304 stainless steel construction throughout ensures durability and maintains commercial-grade performance under daily heavy-duty use.
