LOTUS Electric Range with Neutral Cabinet PC-98ETX

An electric range built for professional kitchens, combining heavy-duty cast-iron hobs with a neutral storage cabinet in a single unit. The hobs heat through electric elements embedded beneath the cast-iron plates, which absorb and distribute the heat evenly across the cooking surface. This method eliminates hot spots, allowing consistent cooking results whether searing, simmering or holding food at temperature. The neutral cabinet beneath provides open storage for kitchen tools, pots and utensils, keeping them within reach while maintaining a clear worktop above.

The operator places pots and pans directly onto the cast-iron hobs, securing them with integrated pan supports to prevent sliding. Each hob is controlled by a seven-position power regulator, allowing precise adjustment from low simmer to full boil. A temperature limiter prevents overheating, protecting both the appliance and the food. The rear splash guard shields the wall from grease and steam, while the rounded edges of the worktop reduce sharp corners for safer movement around the unit.

The range is constructed from 18/10 AISI 304 stainless steel, finished in a Scotch-Brite satin polish that resists fingerprints and scratches. The 2 mm thick worktop and cast-iron hobs withstand daily impact from heavy pots, while chrome-plated details and the rear guard add durability. IPX5-rated waterproof control knobs allow safe cleaning with a hose or damp cloth without risking electrical damage. Adjustable feet ensure the unit sits level on uneven floors, and the front control panel detaches for easy access to internal components during maintenance.

With a 14 kW power rating, the range draws a substantial load and requires a 400 V three-phase electrical supply, standard in commercial kitchens. The 800 mm width fits standard worktop runs, while the 900 mm depth and height allow comfortable use without overcrowding the kitchen. At 86 kg, the unit is heavy enough to remain stable during vigorous cooking but can still be moved with a trolley or two people. The neutral cabinet's open design means no doors to open, reducing steps during service.

Cleaning involves wiping down the stainless steel surfaces with a damp cloth and mild detergent, while the cast-iron hobs can be scraped clean of food debris. The detachable control panel allows thorough access to internal wiring and components, ensuring no hidden grease or moisture remains. The range is supplied with one end panel (TPA-9) to close the side when installed at the end of a run.

An optional 440 V three-phase version is available for kitchens with higher voltage supplies, allowing the same model to adapt to different electrical standards without changing the cooking performance or dimensions.
