LOTUS 6-Burner Gas Range with Electric Oven CF6-712GPEV

A six-burner gas range with a static electric oven combines direct flame cooking on the hob with radiant heat in the oven cavity, giving chefs separate control over two distinct methods in one unit.

The hob is loaded with pots and pans directly onto the cast-iron grates, each burner lit by a pilot flame and protected by a thermocouple and safety valve that cut the gas if the flame goes out. The oven is set by turning the temperature control to the desired point between 50 and 300 °C, and the static element heats the cavity without a fan, relying on natural convection to circulate the air. A single grid, sized to hold a 650 × 530 mm gastronorm tray, is placed inside the oven on runners, and the door is closed to start the cooking cycle.

The entire construction is made of 18/10 AISI 304 stainless steel with a Scotch-Brite satin finish, including the 2 mm thick worktop with rounded edges, chrome-plated trim and a rear protective panel. The control knobs are water-resistant to IPX5, allowing them to be wiped down without risk of damage. An adjustable drip tray beneath the hob collects spills and can be removed for cleaning, and the front control panel lifts off to give access to the internal components.

The 35 kW gas input requires a dedicated gas line capable of supplying the full load, while the 5 kW electric element draws from a 400 V three-phase supply, typical of commercial kitchens. The 1200 mm width and 177 kg weight mean the unit must be positioned on a stable, reinforced floor and secured against movement. The oven cavity dimensions of 670 × 550 × 340 mm accommodate standard gastronorm trays, and the adjustable legs allow the range to be levelled on uneven floors.

Cleaning involves removing the drip tray and wiping down the stainless steel surfaces with a damp cloth and mild detergent. The control panel can be detached to reach the internal parts, and the oven grid and runners are lifted out to clean any food debris. The range is supplied with conversion nozzles for either natural gas or LPG, and the legs can be adjusted to ensure stability on any worktop surface.

The model is listed in the professional catering catalogue under ranges and combines gas hobs with electric ovens.
