SPECIFICATIONS
V-Series Heavy Duty Range Match Versatile Chef Station. 18″ wide Vulcan Model No. VCS18 (single tank), 36″ wide VCS36 (single tank), or 36″ wide VCS36D (double tank). Stainless steel front, plate ledge, front top ledge with pull-out condiment rail, sides, tank surface, stub back, and 6″ adjustable legs on all models. The VCS incorporates 10 different cooking methods into one space saving station: Braise, Sear, Boil, Shallow Fry, Sauté, Steam, Reheat, Simmer, Poach, and Melt. The VCS utilizes Intelligent Heating Technology (IHT) with 6 ultra-thin printed heating elements (1500W ea / 9000W total) to rapidly (2.7° per sec.) and accurately (+/- 2° up to 250°, +/-5° above 250°) heat the 8mm Stratinox tri-metallic tank surface for precise and immediate cooking. The printed heating elements are each monitored by individual temperature probes that actively monitor and manage the tank surface to ensure accuracy and optimize energy use with minimal overshoot. An additional in-tank probe directly senses cooking liquid temperature in Boil and Fry modes for further accuracy. Integral 2.5″ in-tank drain allows three collection options: interior 1⁄2 or 1⁄3 hotel pans (up to 8″ deep) for reserving cooking fluids, direct drain to a floor drain for disposal, or drain to optional drain caddy accessory for remote disposal.
Requires 208 or 240 volt. 3 phase only. Requires 3⁄4″ GHT cold water hookup.
