Food quality and service are more important than ever in
today's institutional food service market. Alto-Shaam recognizes this fact and developed the Delivery Cart using the highest
quality stainless steel, insulating material, and the finest workmanship. This cart is a self-contained, complete hot meal delivery system. It is simple in concept and is designed to adapt to a
completely new or to any existing institutional food service
method of preparation.
The heat source for the hot compartments consist of a resistance wire element. This thermal cable element is wrapped in
exact configurations against the walls of the heated compartments providing an evenly applied, highly controlled heat input.
The design and operational characteristics of the cart provide
even heat application and maintain the quality of hot foods for
longer periods of time.
Through the best arrangement of the controls, operation of
this appliance is simplified. The power switches will automatically energize all functions.
