1.3Equipment Description

The FBR18 and FBRA18 Series Gas Rethermalizers are specifically designed to rethermalize meats, sauces, and other vacuum packaged foods at a safe temperature range that prevents overcooking. They can be configured for either natural or LP (Propane) gas, and their efficient infrared burners deliver 90,000 BTUs (94.9 MJ – 26.4 kW).

The two models are identical except that the FBRA18 has an automatic filling (AutoFill) feature. Both models feature digital temperature controls with continuous temperature display and individual color-coded timer controls with corresponding color-coded baskets. Each unit can rethermalize up to 15 lbs. (7 kg) of food an hour in large capacity 2-5 lb. (0.9-2.3 kg) baskets.

The rethermalizers are safeguarded against boil-over by a standpipe overflow drain, and come with a 1¼” cookpot drain for fast, clog-free emptying. The unit has a rethermalizing area of 18” x 24” (457mm x 609mm) and holds 25 gallons (94.6 liters) of water.
