Delfield N8787-DESP ESP 6-Pan Drop-In Hot Food Well

Energy-Saving Power | Individual Digital Controls | Wet or Dry Operation

Serve hot entrées, sides, and toppings with precision and efficiency. The N8787-DESP is Delfield’s largest Energy Saving Power (ESP) drop-in well, giving you six individually-heated 12" × 20" pans in one low-wattage, high-performance package that installs flush in any 86-1/4" counter cutout.

Why You’ll Love It

  • Six independent 500 W heat pads deliver even, responsive heat to each well.
  • Digital temperature controllers (one per well) arrive pre-wired to a single remote panel with 4 ft of conduit—mount it where it’s most convenient.
  • True wet or dry flexibility; run dry for maximum energy savings or add water to boost humidity throughout a service rush.
  • 1/2" drains in every well are factory-manifolded to one gate valve for fast, mess-free cleanup.
  • 18-gauge stainless-steel top and 20-gauge drawn wells for a seamless, food-safe surface that wipes clean.
  • 1" fiberglass insulation on all sides and between wells keeps heat where it belongs while protecting surrounding counters.
  • Galvanized exterior housing adds strength without extra weight.
  • Press-fit perimeter gasket is pre-installed—simply drop it in and hard-wire.
