Omcan FW-CN-0002-B 36 In. Overhead Strip Warmer, 850W, Infinite Control, Stainless Steel

The Omcan FW-CN-0002-B is a 36-inch overhead strip warmer with an infinite control dial, sized for mid-width pass-through windows, plating counters, and warming shelves. Three feet of coverage is enough to hold three to four plates side by side under radiant heat, making it a practical choice for restaurants, diners, and hotel kitchens where the expo line handles a steady flow of plated orders. The stainless steel housing and mounting brackets keep the unit looking clean above the line and hold up to the grease-laden air in a commercial kitchen environment.

Infinite Control with Electric Heating Element

The infinite control dial gives you a smooth, continuous range of heat output rather than fixed low/medium/high settings. This matters because the ideal heat level depends on how far the warmer is mounted above the food surface and what you are holding under it. Thin items like grilled fish fillets need lower heat to avoid drying out, while thick items like stacked pancakes or roast beef can handle higher output. At 850W on a 120V / 60Hz circuit with a NEMA 5-15P plug, the electric heating element reaches operating temperature quickly after you turn it on and maintains consistent radiant heat across the full 36-inch length. There is no warm-up period where one end is hotter than the other.

SS430 Stainless Steel with Sturdy Mounting Brackets

The housing is SS430 stainless steel, which resists corrosion from the steam, grease, and cleaning chemicals that are constantly in the air around a commercial kitchen line. SS430 is a ferritic grade that is less expensive than 304 but still holds up well in overhead applications where the unit is not in direct contact with food or acidic liquids. Sturdy stainless steel mounting brackets come standard and install quickly above a pass-through shelf, counter, or window frame. The slim profile (6 inches deep and 3.9 inches tall including brackets) keeps the warmer out of the way of kitchen staff reaching across the pass, and at just 8.4 lb the unit is light enough for straightforward overhead mounting without heavy structural support.
