The Asber AEHP-2-12 Gas Hotplate
The Asber AEHP-2-12 is a 12 In. Restaurant Line countertop hot plate, a compact way to add 2 open burners to a line, food truck, or prep area without committing to a full range. Each cast iron lift-off burner delivers 30,000 BTU, 60,000 BTU total, on heavy duty 12 x 12 In. cast iron grates with pilot protection.
30,000 BTU Lift-Off Burners on a Welded Frame
The burners lift off for cleaning and each runs its own independent pilot, so single-station cleanup or partial firing is simple. A heavy gauge welded frame on 2 In. adjustable legs keeps the unit planted under big pots, and the stainless steel drip tray slides out when the shift is over. Construction is all stainless on the interior, exterior front, and sides, with stainless grate supports, burner supports, and pilot tubing.
Bull Nose Ledge and Reinforced Valves
A 5 In. stainless steel bull nose landing ledge protects the Zamak heat resistant knobs from the pass and gives a sliver of plating room, while the reinforced valve system adds a margin of safety in a crowded line. The unit ships for natural gas or LPG with a conversion kit included.
Simple Systems a Rotating Crew Cannot Break
There is no electronics package on this unit to fail or misprogram: gas valves, standing pilots, and cast iron. That simplicity is why countertop hot plates of this style outlive the equipment around them, and why service, when it is ever needed, is a parts-swap rather than a board replacement. The stainless grate supports and pilot tubing resist corrosion where cheaper plated parts rust out, and the drip tray keeps boil-overs from reaching the burner box below.
This hot plate suits diners, food trucks, and prep stations adding open flame to the menu. Plan for a 3/4 In. or larger gas line, hood ventilation, and 6 In. of rear and side clearance to combustibles; it stands just 12-7/8 In. tall on its standard 2 In. legs, with 4 In. legs available.
