Integrated water baths

The integrated (drop in) digital sous vide water baths are built in water baths designed to be installed into the kitchen work surface, freeing counter top space where it is at a premium in a busy kitchen. A choice of 8, 14 and 28 litre tanks are available and can be installed as single or double unstirred units, of either size and combination.

Precise temperatures

Using the same high precision controller found on all other Clifton Food Range® products, accuracy and repeatability are guaranteed. Actual temperature is clearly displayed to 0.1°C. If required, the integrated timer can be set between 1 minute and 99 hours. There is audio/visual notification at the end of the set period after which the bath still continues to operate at the set temperature. Current time and temperature settings are retained in memory even after ‘power off.’

High quality build and features

The space saving bath can be integrated into a new or existing kitchen and easily assembled using the clear, concise instructions. The unit consists of an under-mounted heater on the tank and large bore (38mm diameter) flip top drain, fitted into each tank, for connection to standard waste outlet. Control panel is brushed stainless steel, with fixing holes and graphic overlay.

Controller and tank are pre-calibrated as a matched pair. The underside of the drop-in tank is enclosed to prevent access to the wiring. Installation must be made by a qualified electrician and access should be made available for maintenance by qualified electrical personnel. To assist installation, all electrical and temperature probe connections are clearly marked and fitted with plugs and mating sockets.

Temperature can be easily and rapidly set with the push button, wipe clean control panel mounted on the front of the work surface. If the water in the tank drops below the recommended minimum level or the unit is inadvertently switched on without being filled with water, ‘FILL’ appears on the display as a visual alert and gives run-dry protection.

Each bath is supplied with a stainless steel lid(s) with insulated handle. Constructed from high quality stainless steel. The bath is also supplied with a removable stainless steel perforated shelf which provides effective distribution of heat uniformly throughout the bath by convection.
