Hendi Food Warming Lamps
Hendi Food Warming Lamps. Hendi catalogue from SIA La RONDE
Food warming lamps keep prepared dishes ready for service after cooking. For professional kitchens, the choice depends on whether the task calls for a replacement bulb or a complete lamp, and how the warming point will work at a pass or buffet. SIA La RONDE’s range includes both product types for holding food before it is served.
Equipment and tasks
A food warming lamp is suited to holding prepared food for service some time after cooking. At a pass, it can support the handover between kitchen and service staff while dishes are assembled. The complete lamp is also suitable for buffet use, where food is held at a serving point. These tasks make lamp position and staff access useful considerations when organising the work area.
The replacement bulb serves a different task: replacing a bulb in a warming lamp rather than supplying a complete lamp. Its height can be adjusted, allowing staff to set its position over food being held. The supplied bulb is made from non-shattering glass, designed not to break into fragments if broken. These details relate to fitting and using a bulb at a food holding point.
Parameters in use
The replacement bulb measures ø125x(H)170mm. Its diameter and height help assess whether it can fit over the intended serving area and within the available clearance. The bulb’s 0.25 kW power rating provides a concrete figure when planning electrical use at a warming point. These checks help relate the bulb to its intended position above the work surface.
The complete food warming lamp measures 268 × 200 × 660mm in length, width and height. These dimensions help assess its footprint and clearance when choosing a place at a buffet or pass. Its 230 voltage rating lets an operator check the equipment rating against the intended electrical supply. Consider the placement alongside staff access to dishes and the flow of service around the holding point.
Choosing a product
Choose the replacement bulb when the task is to replace a bulb in a warming lamp. Its dimensions help assess whether it suits the intended position, while its power rating supports planning for the warming point. Choose the complete food warming lamp when setting up a food holding point with a repositionable dome. Its overall dimensions help with placement, and its voltage rating provides an electrical check for the intended work area.
The complete lamp’s flexible handle allows the dome to be moved lower or higher and positioned to suit the food being held. Staff can adjust it at a pass or buffet as dishes are arranged for service. Start selection with the task: replacing a bulb calls for the bulb product, while establishing an adjustable warming point calls for the complete lamp. Include access to dishes in the placement decision.
