A. GENERAL INFORMATION
MODEL 815E
DESCRIPTION
The Nieco Model 815E is an electrically heated conveyorized radiant broiler. Elements on the top
and bottom of the conveyor belts cook a wide variety of products quickly and consistently. The
815E can be equipped with up to three independently controlled cooking belts.
Backed by the Nieco worldwide distributor network, your 815E and all other Nieco equipment
comes with a full service system that provides on-time delivery, start-up, and training assistance,
as well as 24 hour help, should you ever need it.
FOOD PREPARATION
In order to cook properly on the 815E, the operator must prepare the food in a consistent and
appropriate manner. The portions need to be uniform, the product temperature going into the
broiler must be consistent, and if pans or plates are used to cook on, they must be the same.
In automating the kitchen, individual portions of each dish are prepared for cooking in advance of
demand. Items to be broiled are cut into appropriate portions, and held in a refrigerator until needed. Some products, such as hamburgers can be frozen and do not have to be thawed before broiling.

The hood should be at least 6" larger in all dimensions than the appliance top, and be 12" to 18" above the top. Do
not obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air. An adequate air supply must be available for safe and proper
operation.
