Description

Southbend Platinum 60" Heavy-Duty Gas Cheesemelter

Model P60-CM | 60,000 BTU Infrared | Riser-Mount

Deliver picture-perfect cheese melts, golden-brown gratins, and sizzling finishes in just 90 seconds. Powered by six high-intensity infrared burners, the Southbend Platinum 60" Cheesemelter drops directly onto the flue riser of your range to create a dedicated finishing station without giving up valuable line space.

  • Dual independent gas valves let you fire left or right zones only—save fuel during slower periods.
  • Lightning-fast 90 second preheat and no recovery time between loads.
  • Five rack positions plus a full-width chrome rack for precise distance control.
  • Bright-annealed removable crumb tray simplifies end-of-shift cleanup.
  • All-stainless interior & exterior built for the punishing demands of high-volume kitchens.
