General Information

The BlueStar® Infrared Salamander Broiler is designed to be a high speed cooking appliance. It is ideal for
preparing a variety of meats, fish, melted chees dishes, casseroles, au gratin dishes, souffle’s, French onion soup
and other ethnic foods.

Infrared Broiler Performance and Construction

Two hi/low gas valves provide individual control of the (2) atmospheric-type 10,500 BTU gas infrared burners
for the salamander. The “LO” position is adjustable for most field gas pressure situations. The high-efficiency,
infrared burners provide fast pre-heat and uniform production. Unique atmospheric burner design eliminates the
need for fans or filters to assist in the operation of the appliance. Heat is directed downward to the large heavy
duty broiling rack. The rack is easily removed from the spring balanced lower rack assembly. The inner rack
assembly rolls out for ease of loading and unloading. Rack assembly raises and lowers with positive locking in
four positions. A full-width grease deflector attached to the underside of the rack assembly channels hot
drippings to a large capacity drain pan even when the rack assembly is rolled out (Drain pan must always be
attached during use). The rack assembly and drain pan are easily removed for cleaning. When mounted the
infrared broiler is supported by heavy-formed stainless steel brackets. The broiler construction consists of an all
stainless steel interior and exterior, which provides unmatched quality and durability for many, many years.
