Overview

Blue Seal GE56D Evolution Series 900mm Gas Range with Electric Convection Oven

The Blue Seal GE56D is a 900mm commercial gas range with an integrated electric convection oven, forming part of the Evolution Series designed and built in New Zealand for demanding commercial kitchen environments. The cooktop delivers high-output performance across six open burners rated at 28MJ/hr each, while the fan-forced electric convection oven below provides consistent, even heat distribution ideal for roasting, baking, reheating and high-volume food production in restaurants, cafes, hotels and catering operations.

Constructed from heavy-duty 304 stainless steel throughout, the GE56D combines a vitreous enamelled oven liner, cast iron burners, cast iron sole plates and reinforced control knobs to deliver a durable, hygienic and easy-to-service unit. The 2/1 GN oven cavity supports gastronorm trays for multi-level cooking, and the unit is available in both natural gas and LPG configurations to suit a wide range of kitchen installations.

Key Benefits

• Six high-output 28MJ/hr open burners provide rapid heat response and precise flame control for boiling, simmering, sautéing, frying and stockpot cooking during continuous service.
• Fan-forced electric convection oven circulates heat evenly throughout the 2/1 GN cavity, reducing cooking times and delivering consistent results across multiple trays simultaneously.
• Cast iron sole plates inside the oven cavity help maintain stable, uniform heat distribution for precise and even cooking outcomes.
• Flame failure protection on every burner automatically cuts gas supply if a flame is extinguished, enhancing safety during busy service periods.
• Vitreous enamelled oven liner and pot stands resist staining and are straightforward to wipe clean, reducing turnaround time between services.
• Adjustable feet and two additional rollers make positioning and levelling the unit on the kitchen floor quick and easy, even in tight spaces.
• Modular Evolution Series design allows the GE56D to integrate seamlessly into a complete commercial kitchen suite alongside other Blue Seal equipment.
• Available in natural gas or LPG, giving operators the flexibility to match their existing gas supply without additional conversion work.
• Drop-down oven door with a cool-touch stainless steel handle and welded frame provides safe, convenient access to the oven cavity during service.
