Vulcan 972RX Description

Heavy Duty Commercial Griddle, countertop, gas, 72" W x 24" D cooking surface, 1" thick polished steel griddle plate, embedded mechanical snap action thermostat every 12", millivolt pilot safety, electric spark or manual ignition, front manifold gas shut-off valve, low profile, stainless steel front, sides, front grease trough, 4" back & tapered side splashes, 4" adjustable legs, 162,000 BTU, CSA, NSF

The thermostatic controls on the 972RX Heavy Duty Gas Griddle from Vulcan make it simple to griddle food accurately while making it easy to get repeatable results. This 72” wide countertop model is designed for heavy-duty use and can keep up with the demands of busy commercial kitchens. This griddle features a 1” thick polished steel griddle plate for excellent heat retention and to evenly distribute heat from the U-shaped burners.

Six embedded snap action thermostats provide simple to use controls to independently adjust burner temperatures between 200°F and 550°F. Heat is evenly applied to the griddle plate by spacing the six 27,000 BTU/hr U-shaped burners 12” apart. Each pair of burners features a pilot safety valve for safety and the burners can be started with manual or electric ignition.

The chassis is made from fully welded aluminized steel and the exterior front, sides, and front top ledge are made from durable stainless steel for easy cleaning. This griddle has a 6 qt. grease drawer made from stainless steel to store grease and crumbs that come off the cooking surface. The grease drawer is easy to remove from the front of the unit for convenient disposal. A 3-½” wide grease trough makes it easy to move grease and crumbs into the grease drawer.

For easy leveling, this countertop griddle comes mounted on adjustable 4” legs and has a cooking height of 11".

The total required gas input of this griddle is 162,000 BTU/hr through its ¾” rear gas connection. Included with this unit is a NEMA 5-15 plug to connect it to standard 120-volt power.
