The P18N-P sectional plancha range is offered with a modular mount. The P18N-P and P18C-P sectional plancha ranges are 18 inches wide. The P18N-P and P18C-P ranges have one gas burner on the plancha griddle section. The natural-gas configuration of the sectional plancha range has a stated burner input of 16,000 BTU. The range uses battery spark ignition. The plancha units do not allow specific temperature operation. Plancha units have a raised griddle plate for easy cleaning of the cooking surface between loads. A 3-inch-wide collection on the sides allows separation of waste for preparation of the next fare. The plancha griddle is a 1/2-inch-thick reinforced steel plate powered by cast-iron burners, providing fast preheat and recovery time. A high-heat zone with maximum temperatures of 800°F is located on the front 2/3 of the plate for quick sear, with decreased temperatures on the rear 1/3 of the plate for product finishing. The range’s front, sides, rear, and exterior bottom are constructed of #3 polished 430 and 304 stainless steel. The range has side and rear splashers, a 5-inch-deep front rail, an increased-capacity removable stainless-steel grease drawer, and a fully insulated lining and burner box.
