Overview

Blue Seal GPE506 Evolution Series 900mm Gas Griddle Electric Static Oven Range

The Blue Seal GPE506 is a heavy-duty commercial cooking range from the Evolution Series, combining a full-width 900mm thermostatic gas griddle with an integrated 2/1 GN electric static oven. Constructed from 304 stainless steel and built in New Zealand, it is engineered for demanding restaurant, café, hotel, catering, and high-volume hospitality environments that require versatile, consistent cooking performance across multiple applications simultaneously.

The 20mm thick smooth mild steel griddle plate sits atop an 80MJ/hr thermostatic burner system, delivering rapid heat recovery and even surface temperatures across the entire cooking zone, while the electric static oven beneath provides stable, accurate heat for roasting, baking, reheating, and batch cooking. Available in Natural Gas or LPG configurations, the GPE506 integrates seamlessly into complete Blue Seal Evolution Series kitchen suites.

Key Benefits

• Dual-fuel design lets kitchen teams run high-output gas griddle cooking and precise electric oven baking concurrently, maximising throughput during busy service periods.
• Thermostatic temperature control on both the griddle (90–300°C via two thermostats) and the oven (50–320°C) ensures consistent results and reduces the risk of overcooking during volume service.
• The 20mm thick griddle plate retains and distributes heat evenly, minimising temperature recovery time between batches of burgers, steaks, eggs, seafood, and breakfast items.
• Flame failure protection on all burners provides an important safety safeguard in fast-paced commercial kitchen environments.
• Adjustable feet and two additional rear rollers make repositioning straightforward and allow precise levelling on uneven kitchen floors.
• Push-button piezo ignition enables fast, reliable lighting without the need for matches or lighters, reducing downtime at the start of service.
• The stainless steel grease drawer and top weld-sealed plates simplify end-of-service cleaning and help maintain hygiene standards.
• The vitreous enamel-lined oven interior is easy to wipe down and resists staining, supporting food safety compliance and reducing deep-clean time.
• Modular Evolution Series compatibility allows the GPE506 to be paired with other Blue Seal units to build a cohesive, professional kitchen suite tailored to menu requirements.
