Stalgast Hanging Heating Lamp L for Professional Kitchens

A hanging heating lamp keeps plated dishes at serving temperature without drying them out or overcooking. The unit suspends above the pass or plating station, radiating gentle heat downward. Infrared elements warm the surface of the food while the air around it stays cooler, so sauces stay glossy and proteins retain moisture. The same lamp also provides LED lighting, turning the worktop into a well-lit staging area where staff can plate and garnish without shadows or glare.

The operator lowers the lamp to the desired height, then uses the remote control to switch on the heating element and the LED lights. A single button press adjusts both functions, so the lamp can be dimmed or brightened without interrupting the heat. When the service period ends, the remote turns the unit off without touching the lamp itself, keeping the exterior cool and safe for overhead storage.

The body is formed from aluminium, chosen for its light weight and resistance to corrosion in humid kitchen air. A single cable supplies 230 V power, plugging into a standard ceiling outlet or a dedicated overhead circuit. The 580 mm height and 320 mm width create a focused beam that covers a typical plating area without spilling heat or light onto adjacent stations. At 3.2 kg, the lamp can be hung from standard kitchen suspension systems without additional reinforcement.

The remote control sets the heating level and the brightness of the LED lighting. Each setting remains active until changed, so the lamp returns to the same conditions after a power interruption or a temporary shutdown.

A 2.1 kW power rating draws a modest load on a 230 V circuit, allowing several lamps to run on the same ring without tripping breakers. The compact footprint frees counter space for plating tools and garnishes, while the overhead position keeps the worktop clear for rapid service.

Cleaning is limited to wiping the aluminium body with a damp cloth and a mild detergent. The LED lights and heating element are sealed, so no internal maintenance is required. The remote control is stored separately to avoid exposure to steam or splashes.

The lamp is listed in the Stalgast catalogue under Overhead Heating & Lighting, where it is grouped with other suspended units for pass and plating stations.
