Overview

Rational iVario Pro L 100 Litre Tilting Pan with Substructure, 150mm Plastic Feet, RCD Socket and Ethernet

The Rational iVario Pro L is a high-performance multifunctional cooking system designed for commercial and institutional kitchens serving 100 to 300 meals daily. With a 100-litre pan capacity, it replaces multiple pieces of traditional equipment including bratt pans, kettles, boilers, ranges and deep fryers, reclaiming up to 30% of kitchen floor space. Capable of boiling, pan frying and deep frying within a single unit, it operates up to four times faster than conventional cooking appliances while consuming up to 40% less energy.

This configuration includes a purpose-built substructure with 150mm plastic feet, freeing up bench space and allowing flexible placement anywhere in the kitchen. The unit comes equipped with an RCD socket and Ethernet connectivity, supporting network integration and safe electrical operation. The intelligent iCookingSuite automatically detects product size and quantity, adjusting temperature and timing to deliver consistent results with minimal operator intervention, while iZoneControl allows the pan base to be divided into up to four independently controlled heating segments for simultaneous multi-product cooking.
