Description
Why We Love It: The Southbend R24-5 Electric Countertop Convection Steamer offers exceptional performance and durability for commercial kitchens with its robust 5-pan capacity and 240V single-phase electric steam generator.
Crafted with a satin finish 304 stainless steel exterior and a one-piece welded 316 stainless steel cooking chamber with coved corners, this steamer ensures long-lasting corrosion resistance and easy cleaning. The heavy gauge stainless steel door features a full perimeter gasket and a positive lock with spring release, providing a secure seal to maintain consistent steam cooking conditions.
Designed for convenience and efficiency, the unit includes removable stainless steel pan supports, an electromechanical 60-minute timer with an audible end-of-cycle alarm, and illuminated controls such as the three-way power switch (On/Off/De-lime), ready indicator light, and cooking indicator light. Steam flow automatically interrupts when the door is opened and resumes upon closing, enhancing safety and energy efficiency.
The R24-5 model incorporates advanced features like an automatic fill and drain system, a de-liming port for easy generator tank maintenance, an automatic blowdown valve, and solid-state liquid level controls. Split water connections simplify integration with water treatment systems, ensuring optimal steam quality and appliance longevity.
Its versatile design allows for flush countertop mounting or optional 4-inch adjustable legs, with stacking capability via an available kit to optimize kitchen space. The drain tempering system meets a 140-degree temperature requirement, supporting compliance with health standards.
Certified by cCSAus and NSF, this steamer is engineered for reliable, high-volume steaming in demanding commercial environments. Its combination of durable materials, user-friendly controls, and automated maintenance features makes the Southbend R24-5 an indispensable asset for professional foodservice operations.
