If your business requires a slicer that can process cheese, vegetables, and meat for an extended period of time, the Univex 8713M Premium™ Series Slicer is the ideal unit for you. This slicer is designed for heavy-duty use and can be used continuously for up to eight (8) hours. While most establishments can make do with light-duty electric food slicers, certain businesses such as delis, sandwich shops, and cafes need a high-volume slicer like this one. The Univex 8713M Premium™ Series Slicer can handle rectangular-shaped food items measuring up to 10" x 6-½", square-shaped food items measuring 6-½" on each side, and round-shaped food items with a maximum diameter of 9". Its 13" low-friction stainless steel blade is incredibly sharp and features a German hollow ground edge that spins at 300 RPM, allowing it to effortlessly slice through vegetables, meat, and even cheese. The maximum thickness of slices this unit can produce is ⅞". The edge guard on this device is permanently mounted for operator safety. This slicer is comfortable to use, with ergonomically positioned controls that allow for intuitive operation. The drip tray fence ensures that liquids from the food being cut are redirected into the concave base for easy cleanup, preventing them from spraying everywhere. Cleaning the unit is simple, as the carriage can be easily detached for thorough cleaning. The body of the unit has an anodized aluminum finish with a sanitary polish, making it easy to wipe down and maintain its appearance. The built-in sharpener allows users to regularly service the blade to ensure maximum sharpness, and it can be removed for deep cleaning. The blade is powered by a reliable belt-driven transmission and a ½ HP motor. This slicer is available in two voltage configurations: 115v/60/1-ph at 5.4 amps and 220v/50/1-ph at 2.7 amps. Externally, the unit measures 30-¼ inches deep, 20-⅞ inches tall, and 23 inches wide. It is NSF and ETL certified.
