Blue Seal EP518-LS 1200mm Electric Griddle on Stand

Delivery Information
Price Match
The Blue Seal EP518-LS is a 1200mm wide free-standing electric griddle designed for continuous, high-volume cooking in professional kitchen environments. A thick machined steel plate is heated by multiple stainless steel sheathed elements, with thermostatically controlled zones running independently across the full cooking surface. The unit is supplied on an open stand with fixed front legs and rear castors, which makes repositioning within a kitchen line manageable without requiring the unit to be fully lifted.
In practice, a griddle of this width earns its place where throughput is the primary concern. Hotel breakfast operations, large restaurant service lines, central production kitchens, and event catering setups running extended services are all environments where the EP518-LS is commonly deployed. The machined steel plate holds temperature consistently under sustained load, and being able to run different zones at different intensities simultaneously means items with varying heat requirements can be cooked side by side without compromising either. A built-in safety cut-out adds a sensible layer of protection during long services.
From a day-to-day operational standpoint, the key advantages are:
- Wide cooking surface reduces batching delays during high-volume service periods
- Machined steel plate delivers even heat distribution across the full width
- Independent zone thermostat control allows flexible simultaneous cooking
- Enamelled control panel wipes down quickly between services
- Castored stand makes repositioning practical without lifting the unit
This is a three-phase electric unit and requires an appropriate electrical supply and circuit protection — it is not compatible with a standard single-phase connection. The size and weight of the unit mean that floor loading and access routes are worth assessing before delivery is arranged. Adequate overhead extraction must be in place before the unit is brought into service.
The EP518-LS is well suited to kitchens with consistent, high-volume griddle demand and the electrical infrastructure to support it. Smaller operations or those with limited electrical capacity may find a shorter model within the same range a more practical choice. Equally, very high-volume or multi-station production environments are worth a conversation to confirm this specification is the right fit for the workload.
If you'd like to talk through whether this griddle suits your kitchen layout, service pattern, or electrical setup, the team is happy to help you work it out before you make a decision.
Frequently asked questions
What electrical supply does the EP518-LS require?
The EP518-LS is a three-phase electric unit and cannot be run from a standard single-phase supply. Before ordering, it's worth confirming with your electrician that you have the correct supply available and that appropriate circuit protection can be installed. This is one of the most common points to verify before committing to a griddle of this size.
What type of kitchen is this griddle best suited to?
It performs best in operations with consistent, high-volume griddle demand — hotel breakfast services, large restaurant lines, central production units, and extended event catering are all typical environments. Smaller kitchens or those with lower throughput requirements may find a narrower model within the same range a more proportionate choice.
Does the EP518-LS need to be connected to an extraction system?
Yes — like any commercial griddle of this size, it will require adequate overhead extraction before being brought into service. A canopy or extraction hood should be in place and confirmed compliant with ventilation requirements for your site. It's advisable to check this with your ventilation contractor ahead of delivery and installation.
