Vulcan VCS18 Details

Save space and increase efficiency with this Vulcan VCS18 single well 18" versatile chef station / multifunctional cooker! This unit allows you to braise, boil, poach, melt, retherm, saute, sear, shallow fry, simmer, or steam, all in the same piece of equipment. Since this single piece of equipment allows for so many cooking methods and techniques, it can reduce the equipment needs of your kitchen and save valuable space under the hood.

In addition to its versatility, this chef station offers unmatched precision. It uses patented intelligent heating technology and 6 integrated elements to provide uniform heat throughout the well, with just a 2 degree Fahrenheit variance from corner to corner. The uniform heat helps provide uniform, consistent results. Plus, it heats up quickly so you can maximize productivity. The integrated temperature probe senses liquid temperatures in boil and fry modes, while the stainless steel cooking surface with an aluminum core provides fast, even heat transfer for rapid recovery.

With this cooking station, you can perform the entire cooking process in one unit and you can also use your own cooking implements - no special tools required. Start by braising, then use the integrated water delivery system to transition to simmering. Each tank can hold up to 5 gallons, and liquid can be drained directly into a steam table pan (sold separately). The front drain makes emptying and cleaning the well easy.

This model's intuitive control with a digital display lets you set and monitor temperatures and choose your cooking mode with ease. It offers a temperature range of room temperature to 450 degrees Fahrenheit. Whether your staff are new to the kitchen or experienced, these controls will make it easy to set the ideal cooking conditions. When the unit is set to frying mode, the water supply is automatically shut off for safety, to help prevent accidental flare ups.

Because of its compact size, this specialized range can fit in small spaces to provide more versatility for a smaller footprint. It is made of heavy-duty, corrosion-resistant stainless steel for a long life and low product maintenance. It comes with stainless steel tank covers (two per tank) and pull-out condiment rail. This model requires a 240V, 3 phase electrical connection for operation.
