Blue Seal G596-B Evolution Series 900mm Gas Chargrill – Bench Model

The Blue Seal G596-B Evolution Series is a 900mm benchtop gas chargrill built for high-volume commercial kitchens. Three powerful 304 stainless steel U-burners, each rated at 33 MJ/hr with individual thermostatic control, generate intense, even heat across the full cooking surface to seal in flavour and deliver authentic char marks on meats, seafood and vegetables. Constructed from 304 stainless steel and manufactured in New Zealand, this unit is available in both Natural Gas and LPG configurations.

The heavy-duty cast iron grates feature a grooved fin design and can be positioned level or inclined, with the inclined setting channelling grease efficiently into a front collection trough to reduce flare-ups. For added versatility, drop-on 300mm and 450mm griddle sections can be interchanged with the grates. Every burner is protected by a full pilot and flame failure safety system, and lift-out radiants, burners and grease tray baffles make routine cleaning and servicing straightforward in a busy kitchen environment.

Key Benefits

• Three individual thermostatic burners allow precise zone temperature control, so different proteins and vegetables can be cooked simultaneously at their ideal heat levels.
• Reversible cast iron grates give operators the flexibility to switch between flat and inclined configurations to suit different menu items without additional equipment.
• The inclined grate position and grooved fin design direct grease away from the heat source into a front collection channel, significantly reducing flare-ups and improving cook consistency.
• Drop-on 300mm and 450mm griddle sections can replace the grates, expanding the unit's versatility for eggs, pancakes and other flat-top cooking without needing a separate appliance.
• Full pilot and flame failure protection on every burner automatically cuts gas if a flame is extinguished, protecting staff and meeting commercial safety requirements.
• Lift-out radiants, burners and grease tray baffles reduce downtime for cleaning and maintenance, keeping the unit in service through demanding back-to-back service periods.
• Heavy-duty reinforced control knobs withstand the rigours of continuous commercial use and remain easy to operate even with gloved hands.
• Available in Natural Gas and LPG, making the unit suitable for a wide range of existing kitchen gas installations.
