The Moffat D2BM range consists of dry heat drop-in bain-marie units designed to be set into a cut-out within an existing or newly built counter surface. Unlike self-contained servery units, these modules are built to integrate with almost any counter material — stainless steel, granite, marble, timber, tiled surfaces, or solid surface finishes such as Corian — making them a practical choice for operators fitting out a new servery or updating an existing one without replacing the full counter structure.

Dry heat operation means the unit uses a self-contained heating cell rather than a water bath. This removes the daily routine of filling, monitoring, and draining a water system, and reduces the long-term risk of scale build-up. The approach is well suited to holding pre-heated foods at safe service temperatures across busy service periods. Certain models within the range incorporate gantry-mounted halogen heat lamps, which help maintain food temperature from above while keeping the display presentable throughout service.

The practical operational advantages of this range include:

Drop-in format integrates cleanly into new or existing counter builds
Dry heat operation removes water management from the daily routine
13A plug connection means no hardwiring and a straightforward installation process
Gantry glass on SL variants arrives flat-packed, easing delivery into tight servery spaces
Compatible with a wide range of counter materials and servery configurations

Before ordering, it is worth confirming the required cut-out dimensions and counter thickness for the specific model variant. Gantry height above the counter surface varies across the range, and clearance should be considered carefully in lower-ceilinged servery areas. Pans are not included and will need to be sourced separately.

This range suits cafeterias, hotel breakfast operations, staff restaurants, and buffet environments where a neat, integrated counter finish matters and a water-based system would introduce unnecessary complexity. For very high-volume operations requiring greater holding capacity, a heavier-duty solution may be worth considering.

If you are working through counter dimensions, model variants, or which configuration best fits your service layout, the team is happy to help you think it through.

Frequently asked questions

Are pans included with the D2BM units, and which sizes are compatible?

Pans are not included with the D2BM range and will need to be sourced separately. It is worth confirming the pan dimensions and GN compatibility for the specific model variant you are ordering, as well as the depth of the cut-out required, to ensure the pans sit correctly within the unit.

What counter materials can the D2BM drop-in units be fitted into?

The D2BM range is designed to be set into a cut-out in almost any common counter material, including stainless steel, granite, marble, timber, tiled surfaces, and solid surface finishes such as Corian. This makes the range particularly practical for operators who are refitting an existing servery without replacing the full counter structure.

Is there anything to consider regarding gantry height and ceiling clearance?

Gantry height above the counter surface varies across the D2BM model variants, so ceiling clearance is an important consideration — particularly in lower-ceilinged servery areas. If you are unsure whether a gantry model will fit your space, it is worth checking the specific clearance requirements before ordering.
