The PGF1201A3650-S2 Accu-Steam™ Countertop Griddle from AccuTemp is a stand-mounted, liquid propane heated model that is ENERGY STAR compliant. It has a cooking area of 1,077 sq. in. and a maximum output of 70,000 BTU/hr. AccuTemp's Accu-Steam™ griddles feature hermetically sealed vacuum chambers filled with pure water. In this particular model, the chamber is heated with infrared burners, and the steam produced evenly applies heat to the cold-rolled 7 gauge stainless steel griddle plate. Unlike other griddles that use multiple burners and thick cast iron plates, the steam heating method provides truly even heating and eliminates cold spots. The cooking temperature can be precisely controlled with a digital thermostat, allowing for cooking temperatures ranging from 200°F to 400°F. Thanks to the steam chamber, the entire griddle surface maintains a consistent temperature within ±5°F of the set temperature. The griddle also offers 3 programmable temperature presets, and a manager mode is available to lock out temperature controls if needed. Cleaning excess grease and debris is made easy with a 3-½" grease trough located at the front of the griddle plate. The trough empties into a 6-½ quart grease can that can be accessed through a drawer for emptying. The griddle comes with a sturdy stand that includes a single shelf for storage and casters for added mobility. It also includes a 5-foot power cable with a NEMA 5-15 plug for connecting to a 120v/60/1-ph power outlet. The griddle features various standard control and construction features, including a control guard, heating indicator light, over temperature indicator light, and easy front service access to controls. The construction features include 4" legs with bullet feet, a full front grease trough, a drop chute to a grease pan, a high rear splash, and tapered side walls. The griddle plate is made of cold-rolled and annealed stainless steel with a polished stainless steel body. Performance-wise, the griddle utilizes infrared burners and a hermetically-sealed steam chamber to heat the griddle plate efficiently. It offers rapid surface temperature recovery, allowing for consistent cooking results. The smooth cold-rolled stainless steel griddle surface makes cleaning quick and easy. The steam transfers heat evenly to the entire cooking surface, resulting in only ±5°F temperature variation
