LOTUS CFC4-78ETX Electric Range with Ceramic Hob and Oven

A professional electric range combines a ceramic hob and an electric oven in a single unit, letting chefs control both top and bottom heat from one station. The ceramic surface uses radiant heating elements beneath the glass to spread heat evenly across each cooking zone, eliminating cold spots and allowing precise temperature control for everything from delicate sauces to high-heat searing. Below, the oven heats air with electric elements, either circulating it naturally for traditional baking or moving it with a fan for faster, more uniform results across multiple trays.

To start, the operator selects a cooking zone and sets the desired power level using the water-resistant control knobs. The residual heat indicators light up once the zone is hot and stay on until it cools, warning staff even after the power is turned off. The oven is set separately, with a temperature range that covers gentle warming, proofing, baking and roasting. The supplied grid and GN 2/1 tray slide in and out on runners, holding everything from sheet pans to gastronorm containers.

The range is built from 2 mm thick CrNi 18/10 stainless steel, satin-finished for durability and easy cleaning. The worktop and body have rounded edges to prevent cuts and make wiping down faster. Chrome-plated components resist corrosion and add contrast to the satin steel. A removable front control panel gives access to all serviceable parts without tools, reducing downtime for maintenance.

A 15 kW power rating means the unit requires a dedicated 400 V three-phase circuit, the standard supply for professional kitchens. The 120 kg weight and adjustable feet keep the range stable on uneven floors, while the 800 mm width fits standard worktop runs and leaves room for side-by-side installation. The oven cavity measures 670x550x340 mm, large enough for a full-size gastronorm tray.

Cleaning is straightforward: the ceramic surface wipes clean once cool, and the stainless steel body resists stains and scratches. The control knobs are rated IPX5, so they can be sprayed with water during deep cleaning without damage. The pot support grate lifts off for thorough scrubbing, and the oven interior is lined with smooth stainless steel for easy wipe-down after each service.

The CFC4-78ETX is a standalone range without side compartments, supplied with one 65x53 cm grid and a GN 2/1 tray. It is listed in the professional cooking suite under electric ranges.
