FEATURES & SPECIFICATIONS
Forced Convection Fried Food Holding Cabinet
The Crisp n’ Hold provides a heated stream of air to maintain fried food temperature and freshness for
a specified period of time after cooking. Forced air is heated through an electric resistance heater and
ducted to a food grate. The heated air is discharged through small circular openings in the bottom of
the grate and through a slotted opening located front top to provide a warm blanket of air over the food.
Additionally, the grate has small round embossments to minimize hot metal contact with the food. Adjustable and removable food dividers.
