TECNOINOX Electric Bratt Pan B12MFAE9 – 120 Litre Capacity

A bratt pan combines a deep, tilting fryer with a griddle and a braising pan in one mobile unit. Electric elements beneath the tank heat the mild steel base and walls evenly, creating a large, shallow cooking surface that can sear, shallow-fry, braise, simmer or hold food at serving temperature. The tilting mechanism allows the operator to pour liquids or transfer cooked batches without lifting, reducing spillage and strain.

The sequence begins by plugging the unit into a 400 V three-phase supply. The operator fills the 120 litre tank with oil, stock or water to the required depth, then sets the thermostat to the target temperature. Once the elements reach the set point, the pan holds the heat across the entire base, letting food cook evenly whether it is spread in a single layer or piled in a braise. A tilting handle or motorised lever lowers the front edge so liquids can be decanted into containers or waste systems without removing the pan from its stand.

Construction centres on a mild steel tank that resists warping under repeated heating cycles. The exterior is finished in stainless steel for durability and ease of cleaning. Overall dimensions of 1200 mm wide, 900 mm deep and 900 mm high give a footprint that fits standard worktop layouts while leaving room for side trays and utensils. The weight of 210 to 220 kg requires a stable floor and a trolley for repositioning; castors are not included.

Controls consist of a thermostat to regulate the heating elements and a tilting mechanism operated by a hand lever or optional motor. The 14.9 kW power rating draws a substantial current, so the unit must be connected to a dedicated three-phase circuit with appropriate cable and circuit protection.

The 120 litre volume allows bulk cooking of stews, curries, pasta or fried items in a single batch. The 400/3N voltage requirement matches the standard three-phase supply found in commercial kitchens, eliminating the need for transformers or single-phase adapters. The mild steel tank conducts heat quickly and retains it well, making it suitable for high-volume service where speed and consistency are critical.

Cleaning follows the construction: the mild steel tank is scrubbed with non-abrasive pads and degreaser after each use, while the stainless steel exterior is wiped down with a damp cloth. The tilting mechanism should be checked periodically for smooth operation and lubricated if necessary. No additional parts or accessories are specified for this model.
