The EPX-3 (3-pan) and EPX-5 (5-pan) are high-performance, countertop convection steamers that are perfect for commercial kitchens seeking a reliable, boiler-free steaming solution. These units are connectionless, meaning no plumbing is required, making them a convenient choice for a variety of kitchen setups. Certified by c-CSA-us and NSF, the EPX series is built for safety, quality, and performance. Constructed from durable satin-finish 304 stainless steel, the steamer features a one-piece, welded 316 stainless steel cooking chamber with coved corners for easy cleaning. The door is designed with a removable inner stainless steel liner, a full perimeter gasket seal, and an outer one-piece welded stainless steel liner for enhanced durability and efficiency. The door also features a positive lock and seal mechanism with a spring release for easy access. The EPX steamers are equipped with removable stainless steel pan supports and a steam diffuser plate to ensure even and efficient steaming. The control housing is made of stainless steel and includes a full-access removable panel for ease of maintenance. Controls are user-friendly and feature an illuminated timed cooking/off/constant steam switch, a ready indicator light, a cooking indicator light, and a 60-minute electric timer with an audible alarm that sounds at the end of the cooking cycle. A low water indicator light with an audible alarm alerts users when water levels are too low, and a door interlock switch ensures steam generation is interrupted when the door is open, automatically reactivating when the door is closed. Designed for ease of use, durability, and consistent performance, the EPX-3 and EPX-5 convection steamers are ideal for any busy kitchen that requires fast, efficient steaming without the need for plumbing.
