Waldorf RNL8603E-LS 800 Series - 900mm Electric Cooktop Low Back Version – Leg Stand

Waldorf RNL8603E-LS 800 Series 900mm Electric Cooktop – Low Back, Leg Stand Configuration

The Waldorf RNL8603E-LS is a 900mm wide commercial electric cooktop from the 800 Series, pairing four 2.4kW radiant elements with a 300mm griddle section and presented in a low-back format supported on a heavy-duty leg stand. Built throughout from welded 304 stainless steel, the unit delivers flexible, high-output cooking performance suited to busy commercial kitchens, cafes, and catering operations. The griddle section is factory-configured to the right-hand side as standard, and the unit ships complete with a fully modular leg stand featuring a framed shelf, adjustable feet, and two rollers for straightforward positioning.

Servicing and daily cleaning are addressed through a front-access design philosophy: element and griddle sections hinge upward for unobstructed access, and the spill-containment trays lift out without tools. The modular construction allows the cooktop to be integrated with matching Waldorf 800 Series suite components, enabling operators to build out a cohesive professional kitchen line.

Key Benefits

• Four independent 2.4kW radiant elements with energy regulator controls allow multiple cooking tasks to run simultaneously at different heat levels, maximising throughput during service.
• The 300mm griddle section is powered by a dedicated 3.6kW element and governed by a 50–320°C thermostat, delivering precise temperature management for proteins, vegetables, and breakfast items alongside the radiant cooktop.
• Six temperature settings plus a simmer setting on each radiant element provide the range of heat control required for delicate sauce work through to high-heat searing.
• Individual power and heating indicator lights on every element control let kitchen staff monitor all cooking zones at a glance, reducing the risk of unattended hotplates.
• Front-of-unit access to all components, combined with hinge-up element and griddle sections and removable spill trays beneath both the element modules and the hob, substantially cuts cleaning and routine servicing time.
• The tool-free, quick-assembly leg stand includes a modular framed shelf, two rollers, and adjustable feet, making initial installation and subsequent repositioning easy for any kitchen team.
• Heavy-duty reinforced, heat-resistant control knobs with clearly marked settings are designed to withstand the demands of continuous commercial operation.
• An optional configuration with cast hot plate elements featuring a machine-finished 8mm thick steel cooking surface can be specified to broaden cooking surface versatility within the same footprint.
• Full modularity means the cooktop and leg stand can be matched and combined with other 800 Series suite pieces for a unified, professional kitchen layout.
