Vulcan MSA48-30 Description
Preventing overheating, the Vulcan MSA48-30 commercial griddle has millivolt pilot safety valves that shut off the unit is a pilot extinguishes. In the front, a 6-quart grease trough captures crumbs and debris to keep them off the countertop, and on the back and sides, a 4-inch riser contains grease splatter to keep the surroundings clean. This unit is made of stainless steel—a material that resists rust, scrapes, dents, and corrosion, and the griddle plate is made of 1-inch-thick steel to retain heat and recover temperatures quickly.
Because the plate on the Vulcan MSA48-30 gas griddle is polished, it's smooth enough to be wiped down when it needs to be cleaned. Measuring 48 inches wide by 371/2 inches deep by 151/4 inches high, this unit fits on a countertop. Positioned on 4-inch adjustable legs, it can be placed on uneven surfaces without wobbling or tilting over. A mechanical snap action thermostat is embedded every 12 inches to create four individually controlled cooking zones.
