Unrivaled Build Quality: Durability That Withstands the Heat
The foundation of the AMPTO 90CPG45 PLUS, is its robust construction, starting with a 2 mm thick worktop featuring a deep 60 mm recess. This thoughtful design effectively contains starch overflow during peak cooking, keeping your workspace spotless and maximizing efficiency without frequent interruptions.
Crafted entirely from high-grade AISI 304 stainless steel – with the tank in premium AISI 316 for superior corrosion resistance – the entire unit is built to endure the rigors of a busy kitchen. At a net weight of 79 kg, it offers enhanced stability and longevity, reflecting the substantial materials invested in every detail.
Advanced Safety and Performance: Engineered for Peace of Mind
Safety and precision are non-negotiable, and the AMPTO 90CPG45 PLUS, delivers with a dedicated chimney that optimizes combustion drafting for efficient heating while serving as a robust barrier against water splashes entering the technical compartment.
Ergonomic bakelite knobs, made from heat- and mechanically stable phenolic material, include an integrated ring with a protective lip to prevent water ingress behind the control panel – a feature that ensures reliable operation season after season.
Powering this performance is an enlarged combustion chamber paired with a double-body AISI 304 burner, providing 80,000 BTU of high-efficiency heat distribution for even boiling and reduced energy use. The piezoelectric pilot igniter with manual backup adds an extra layer of dependable ignition.
Expanded Capacity for Peak Productivity: Cook More, Serve Better
With a generous 45-liter (12-gallon) tank, the 90CPG45 PLUS offers 10% more volume than many alternatives, thanks to its deeper design that maintains boil stability during extended sessions. This extra thermal mass ensures pasta emerges consistently "al dente" without prolonging cook times, while accommodating standard GN baskets for versatile portioning.
The automatic starch removal system and removable tank bottom make cleanup effortless, so you spend less time on maintenance and more on what matters – serving exceptional dishes.
