LUUS NC-45 Noodle Cooker Nc 45 6 Baskets Noodle Cooker - 450 x 800 x 1100mm

LUUS NC-45 Noodle Cooker – 6 Basket Gas Noodle & Blanching Cooker, 450mm Wide

The LUUS NC-45 is a heavy-duty commercial noodle cooker built for high-volume Asian cuisine and vegetable blanching operations. Measuring 450 x 800 x 1100mm and constructed predominantly from 304 and 316 grade stainless steel, it delivers consistent, rapid water recovery between back-to-back basket loads throughout a busy service. Manufactured in Australia, it connects to either natural gas or LPG and comes complete with six perforated stainless steel baskets ready for immediate use.

A standout feature of the NC-45 is its autoskimming water overflow system, which continuously removes excess starch from the tank to keep cooking water clean and maintain consistent noodle quality without manual intervention. Safety is addressed through piezo ignition with a flame failure device, a high-temperature cut-out mechanism, and a safety release tank drainage valve. An adjustable thermostat gives operators precise water temperature control, while Fiberfrax Durablanket insulation on both sides of the tank improves thermal efficiency and keeps external surfaces cooler during extended use.

Key Benefits

• Autoskimming overflow system removes excess starch continuously, maintaining cleaner cooking water and more consistent noodle texture across an entire service without manual water changes.
• Rapid thermal recovery between basket loads keeps water at the set temperature during peak periods, supporting back-to-back cooking without quality loss.
• Adjustable thermostat allows precise water temperature control, giving kitchen teams the ability to dial in the exact conditions required for different noodle types or blanching tasks.
• Six baskets included straight out of the box, so the unit is service-ready immediately and can handle multiple simultaneous orders.
• The cooking tank is fabricated from 1.5mm 316 grade marine-quality stainless steel, which resists the corrosive effects of constant hot water immersion and starch-laden cooking environments, extending the working life of the cooker.
• All components, parts, and controls are accessible from the front panel, minimising the space needed for servicing and reducing downtime during maintenance.
• Safety release tank drainage valve at the base of the unit allows safe, controlled water removal during cleaning without awkward manual bailing.
• Fiberfrax Durablanket insulation on both sides of the tank improves energy efficiency and helps keep outer panel temperatures lower for a safer working environment.
• Stainless steel legs with a 55mm adjustable height range allow the unit to be levelled accurately on uneven floors, ensuring stable and safe operation.
