STC 2000, STC 3000 specifications

The Alto-Shaam STC 2000 and STC 3000 are state-of-the-art holding cabinets designed to enhance foodservice operations. Renowned for their advanced technologies and robust features, these models are pivotal in maintaining food quality while ensuring efficiency in the kitchen.

One of the standout features of the STC series is its patented Halo Heat technology. This innovative heating method surrounds food with gentle, radiant heat rather than relying on traditional air circulation. As a result, food retains its moisture and flavor without drying out, a crucial aspect for maintaining quality in high-volume settings. The STC 2000 and STC 3000 are capable of holding various food items, from roasted meats to delicate pastries, without compromising texture or taste.

Both models offer customizable temperature settings, allowing operators to adjust the heat according to specific menu requirements. The temperature range typically spans from 60°F to 200°F, providing flexibility for various holding needs. Moreover, the precise temperature control is aided by a digital display, ensuring that staff can monitor and adjust settings with ease.

Energy efficiency is another hallmark of the STC series. Constructed with high-quality insulated walls, these cabinets minimize heat loss, ensuring that less energy is consumed during operation. This not only contributes to lower energy bills but also aligns with sustainability efforts in modern foodservice operations.

In terms of capacity, both the STC 2000 and STC 3000 are built to accommodate different volumes. The STC 2000 is engineered for smaller operations, while the STC 3000 caters to higher demand, boasting a larger capacity that can hold even more trays. Both units come equipped with adjustable shelving, allowing for optimal organization of food items.

Safety features are integrated into both models, including a self-closing door and an automatic shut-off mechanism, which enhance operational safety and reduce the risk of overheating. The durable construction of these cabinets ensures longevity and reliability, capable of standing up to the rigors of a busy kitchen environment.

In summary, the Alto-Shaam STC 2000 and STC 3000 holding cabinets are exemplary in their ability to balance quality, efficiency, and capacity.
