CASTA E7/KUPG6BB.3M3G Professional Gas Hob with Grill Top

A professional gas hob and grill top built for continuous service in commercial kitchens. Open-flame burners heat the grills directly, transferring energy without the lag of an electric element. The flame's intensity is controlled at each burner, allowing rapid searing, simmering or grilling across the entire surface at once. Cast-iron grills retain and radiate heat evenly, so food cooks through without cold spots while developing the char and crust that open-flame cooking produces.

The work sequence begins by lighting the pilot flames manually; each burner is then ignited with its control knob. Once lit, the thermocouple safety system monitors the flame and cuts the gas supply if it extinguishes, preventing unburned gas from accumulating. The operator loads food onto the porcelain-enamelled grills or directly over the burners, adjusting the flame height to match the cooking stage. After use, the grills are left to cool before cleaning, while the drip tray beneath the recessed worktop collects spills for easy removal.

The hob is constructed from AISI 304 18/10 stainless steel, chosen for its corrosion resistance and hygiene. The worktop features a 22 mm deep recessed channel that catches liquids and juices, keeping the surrounding area dry and organised. Cast-iron burners are chrome-plated for durability and fitted with heat-resistant control knobs that remain cool to the touch even during extended service. Porcelain-enamelled grills resist acids and staining, and the adjustable stainless-steel legs provide stability on uneven floors.

Each of the six burners is rated at either 4.5 kW or 7.5 kW, drawing a total load that requires a dedicated gas supply line. The 1200 mm width fits standard worktop runs, while the 700 mm depth allows placement against a wall or island without overhang. The 275 mm height positions the cooking surface at an ergonomic level for standing chefs, reducing fatigue during long shifts.

Cleaning is limited to the parts named: the recessed worktop channel is wiped out after service, the porcelain grills are scrubbed with non-abrasive pads, and the cast-iron burners are brushed free of debris. The stainless-steel legs and frame are wiped down with a damp cloth, avoiding harsh chemicals that could damage the finish.

The unit is certified to EC standards for gas safety and hygiene, ensuring compliance with professional kitchen regulations. It is listed in the catalogue under heavy-duty gas cooking equipment for commercial kitchens.
