The Universe Plus skillet has a fully polished stainless steel
cooking surface that reduces food from adhering and helps to
safely clean the equipment. Gas burners turn off automatically
when the cooking pan is tilted from the horizontal position. The
skillet is provided with a heavy-duty spring assisted cover and
a condensate vent. The cooking pan and cover are supported
by two consoles with a fully welded stainless steel tubular frame
system that provides stable support to the unit.
The consoles are completely covered with stainless steel that
provides protection to the controls and is also easily cleanable
and provides clear access for easy floor cleaning. The closedbase model incorporates an easily removable stainless steel
front panel. The sloped front of the pan allows for complete
draining of the pan when tilted to 70°. The tilting mechanism
includes a precision ground and polished worm for smooth and
long lasting tilt operation and positive control with a collapsible
hand crank. A power tilting option is available and is also supplied with the collapsible handle for manual override operation
if required.

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
COOKING PAN: The polished cooking surface resists
product adherence and improves cleanup and appearance. The pan incorporates an easy-pour lip and 5-gallon increment markings. An interlock switch is provided
to turn the burners off when the pan is tilted more than
10° from the normal horizontal position. The spring
assisted cover with integral vent, condensate drip guide
and full width handle affords effortless operation and will
maintain an open position.
CONTROLS: The skillet comes standard with a solidstate temperature control with a positive OFF position
and 100-450°F scale, a pilot light to indicate when the
elements are ON, and a 1 hour mechanical timer. The
optional power tilting mechanism also utilizes an UP/
DOWN rocker switch. The manual tilting mechanism

below the control panel. The controls are resistant to
dripping and light splashing water (NEMA T-2).
