Description

Carter-Hoffmann CW4E Bulk Chip Warmer

44 gal capacity • forced-air heating • RapidShip model

Keep tortilla chips, kettle chips and other fried favorites hot, crisp and always first-in/first-out. The CW4E’s top-mounted convection heater bathes product in a gentle blanket of warm air, while its gravity-feed design guarantees consistent rotation during the busiest rushes.

Key benefits

  • Huge holding power — approx. 44 gal (5.75 ft³) chip capacity for uninterrupted service.
  • Forced-air system — Incoloy-sheathed elements and heavy-duty blower deliver quick heat-up and even cabinet temperatures.
  • First-in/first-out gravity feed — top-load, bottom-serve design maintains freshness and minimizes waste.
  • Tool-adjustable thermostat — factory-set to 175 °F; adjustable up to 190 °F (88 °C) while preventing tampering.
  • Durable stainless build — welded 16-ga cabinet with extended side panels to curb spillage.
  • Sanitary & service-friendly — removable heat module, rear duct and grates for easy cleaning; slide-out steam-table crumb pan.
  • Space-saving 4" adjustable legs — level the unit on any countertop.
  • cUL & UL EPH Listed; qualifies for most health-department codes right out of the box.
