Blue Seal E516C-CB Evolution Series - 900mm Electric Cooktop – Cabinet Base

Blue Seal E516C-CB Evolution Series 900mm Electric Cooktop – Cabinet Base

The Blue Seal E516C-CB is a 900mm wide freestanding electric cooktop from the Evolution Series, combining four 2.4kW radiant elements with a 300mm right-hand griddle on a cabinet base. Built in New Zealand from 304 stainless steel, it delivers 13kW of total cooking power across a versatile cooking surface suited to high-volume commercial kitchen environments.

Designed for ease of use and long service life, the E516C-CB features heavy-duty reinforced control knobs with clear, non-fade markings and reinforced shaft sleeves to minimise wear, along with adjustable feet and two additional rollers for straightforward positioning. An optional GN 1/1 four-position racking kit and optional hotplate elements provide added flexibility to suit a range of menu requirements.

Key Benefits

• Four independent radiant elements with energy regulator controls allow precise heat management across the full spectrum from simmer to high, supporting simultaneous cooking of multiple dishes.
• The integrated 300mm right-hand griddle with a dedicated 3.4kW element and 50–320°C thermostat delivers consistent grilling and searing performance alongside the radiant cooking zones.
• Reinforced control knobs with non-fade markings and reinforced shaft sleeves reduce the need for frequent replacements, lowering maintenance costs in demanding kitchen conditions.
• Adjustable feet combined with two additional rollers make levelling and repositioning straightforward, reducing installation time and allowing easy access for cleaning and servicing.
• The smooth mild steel griddle surface and accessible component layout simplify daily cleaning routines and routine servicing, minimising kitchen downtime.
• A 165mm splashback is included as standard, helping to protect surrounding surfaces and keep the cooking station tidy during busy service periods.
• The cabinet base with a single hinged door provides useful enclosed storage directly beneath the cooktop, making efficient use of floor space in the kitchen.
• Optional GN 1/1 four-position racking kit and optional solid hotplate elements allow the unit to be configured to match specific operational needs without replacing the entire unit.
