CASTA LADY 700 gas ribbed grill surface for professional kitchens

A gas ribbed grill surface heats a solid chrome-plated steel plate from below with a burner, transferring heat evenly across the cooking area. The ribbed design creates channels that guide juices and fats away from food, preventing flare-ups and keeping the surface clean. This method gives direct, controllable heat for searing, grilling and frying without the need for added oil, making it suitable for meat, vegetables, seafood and eggs.

The operator lights the burner with piezo ignition, then sets the thermostatic tap to the desired heat level between 0 and 8. Food is placed directly on the ribbed plate, where the even heat distribution cooks it consistently. Splash guards around the edges contain grease and steam, while a front drainage hole channels excess fat into a removable drawer for easy disposal. After cooking, the plate is scraped clean and wiped down, with no need to disassemble the grease system.

The entire unit is constructed from AISI 304 stainless steel with a Scotch Brite finish, chosen for its resistance to corrosion and ease of cleaning. The 15 mm thick chrome-plated steel cooking plate retains heat well and distributes it evenly, while the two-flame burner ensures stable temperature across the surface. Stainless steel splash guards and a front grease drawer keep the worktop tidy and reduce fire risk.

Controls consist of a thermostatic tap with eight positions, allowing precise adjustment of the burner's output. A thermocouple automatically cuts the gas supply if the flame goes out, and piezo ignition eliminates the need for external lighters or matches. Heat-resistant knobs and handles protect users from burns during operation.

A 6 kW power rating indicates the load on the gas supply, requiring a commercial-grade connection. The 400x700x275 mm footprint fits standard worktop depths while providing ample cooking space, and the stainless steel construction allows the unit to be moved with a trolley or pallet truck when needed.

Daily maintenance involves emptying the grease drawer, wiping the cooking surface with a scraper and cloth, and cleaning the splash guards and exterior with a damp cloth. The Scotch Brite finish resists fingerprints and stains, reducing the need for frequent polishing.

The LADY 700 is a single-zone fry top with a ribbed chrome-plated plate, designed for countertop installation in professional kitchens.
