Casselin CECM120 Mobile Heated Shelf Unit

A mobile heated shelf unit keeps plated dishes at serving temperature without drying or overcooking. Four independent heating elements beneath each shelf radiate gentle warmth upwards, maintaining the set temperature evenly across the entire surface. The adjustable thermostats allow each shelf to be set to the exact warmth needed for different dishes, preventing cold spots and ensuring food stays ready to serve for extended periods.

The operator loads the four removable grids with plated dishes, then sets each thermostat to the desired temperature up to 70 °C. The four On/Off switches control the heating lamps for each shelf independently, allowing selective use when not all shelves are needed. Four waste collecting pans beneath the grids catch any spills or condensation, keeping the workspace clean. The unit's mobility comes from four swivelling castors, two of which lock to secure the unit in place during service.

Constructed entirely from stainless steel, the unit resists corrosion and withstands the humidity of a busy kitchen. The four shelves measure 1040 by 545 mm each, providing ample space for plated dishes. Removable grids simplify loading and unloading, while the waste pans slide out for easy cleaning.

The four On/Off switches provide individual control over the heating elements, conserving energy when fewer shelves are in use.

A 4 kW power rating at 400 V requires a three-phase supply, typical in professional kitchens where high-demand equipment is common. The 117 kg weight ensures stability during movement, while the 1200 by 630 mm footprint fits within standard worktop layouts. The 1788 mm height allows the unit to be positioned beneath extraction canopies or in tight spaces where vertical clearance is limited.

Cleaning involves removing the grids and waste pans, wiping down the stainless steel surfaces, and ensuring the heating elements and thermostats remain free of debris. The castors should be checked periodically for smooth operation and the brakes tested for secure locking.

The CECM120 is a mobile heated shelf unit designed for holding plated dishes at serving temperature in professional kitchens and service areas.
