Overview

Woodson W.BMA23 Bain Marie – 2 Row, 3 Bay Large Bain Marie

The Woodson W.BMA23 is a 2-row, 3-bay large bain marie purpose-built for wet operation in busy commercial kitchens, cafes, canteens, buffets and catering setups. Its air-insulated, double-skinned stainless steel tank delivers energy-efficient, gentle and even heat, keeping soups, curries, sauces, vegetables and other hot dishes moist and at safe serving temperatures throughout service.

Designed to accept gastronorm pans up to 100mm deep across three bays, the W.BMA23 offers flexible pan configurations to suit a wide variety of service styles. Temperature is managed via a thermostat operating in the 70°C–80°C range, supported by in-tank temperature probes and a temperature gauge for accurate monitoring. A manual water fill and ball-valve-operated drain on the sloped tank floor make filling and cleaning straightforward. The unit runs on a standard 10A, 240V plug and lead, requiring no hardwiring for installation.
