LOTUS Electric Ceramic Cooktop 90 with Two Heating Zones

A ceramic cooktop heats a smooth glass surface with electric elements beneath each zone. The elements radiate heat upwards, warming the pan directly while the surrounding glass stays cooler. This method gives even, controllable heat without open flames, making it safer and easier to clean than gas hobs. The cooktop's ceramic surface distributes heat quickly and responds instantly to temperature adjustments, allowing precise cooking control for sauces, frying or simmering.

To use the LOTUS PCCT-94ETX, place a pan on one of the two marked zones. Turn the control knob to select the desired heat level; the cooktop will heat the zone to the set temperature. An integrated residual heat indicator lights up when the zone is hot, even after the power is turned off, warning staff not to touch the surface. Adjustable legs allow the cooktop to be levelled on uneven worktops, while a locking system keeps it stable during use.

The cooktop is built from 18/10 grade AISI 304 stainless steel, a corrosion-resistant alloy that withstands the moisture and cleaning agents of a professional kitchen. The work surface is 2 mm thick, with rounded edges to prevent damage to pans and reduce the risk of cuts. Chrome-plated details and a Scotch-Brite satin finish give a durable, easy-to-clean surface that resists scratches and fingerprints. Splash guards protect the surrounding area from grease and liquids, while IPX5-rated waterproof handles allow safe operation even when hands are wet.

A power rating of 6.4 kW requires a 400 V three-phase electrical supply, the standard for commercial kitchens with high-demand appliances. The 400 x 900 mm footprint fits a 90 cm worktop space, leaving room for food preparation alongside. At 38 kg, the cooktop is heavy enough to stay stable during use but can still be moved by two people for installation or cleaning beneath.

The cooktop includes a switch and a temperature limiter to prevent overheating. Cleaning is straightforward: the smooth ceramic zones wipe clean with a damp cloth once cool, while the stainless steel frame can be scrubbed with non-abrasive cleaners to maintain its satin finish. The rounded edges and splash guards reduce the spread of spills, making daily upkeep quicker.

This model is designed for professional kitchens and is not intended for domestic use. It is supplied with adjustable legs and a fixing system for secure installation on a worktop or counter.
