Double contact grill Hendi 263808

This double contact grill has ribbed upper and smooth lower surfaces, giving operators different contact finishes at one station. Its double format suits food preparation that combines grilling and heating, while the larger-than-most category footprint makes its place in the hot-work area an important layout consideration.

Where it is used

Use the grill for bread, meat, sausages, vegetables and other foods that need grilling or heating. The ribbed upper surface and smooth lower surface offer different finishes for those tasks, making the appliance useful for a café preparing hot sandwiches alongside grilled menu items.

The spring mechanism holds the raised upper grill in position, leaving the operator's hands free to load or remove food. Rear and side edges on the lower grill help contain drips and residue, while rubber feet help limit movement during handling.

Connection and installation

The 230 V rating gives operators a basis for matching the appliance to the supply at the intended station. Its rated power is higher than that of most products in this category, a useful like-for-like comparison when selecting a grill. High-power heating elements bring the grill surfaces up to temperature promptly for preparation.

An integrated switch indicator and a separate preheating light make power and warm-up status visible at the appliance. The earthed plug connects through the supplied power cable.

Care

Enamelled cast-iron surfaces are straightforward to clean, supporting routine clean-down after grilling. The removable drip tray can be taken out for cleaning, and the supplied grill brush gives staff a dedicated tool for removing residue from the cooking surfaces.

How to choose

The temperature control can be adjusted continuously, so operators can tune the heat to the food rather than rely on fixed settings. Two independently adjustable thermostats provide separate adjustment for the work being carried out.

The working surface helps assess the usable grilling area for the station's tasks. The appliance is lighter than most products in this category, making it comparatively easier to reposition when the work area is rearranged; its overall dimensions help account for the footprint when planning that layout.
